Mack has been compliments
because he signed Ty Cobb
VI to play with the Philadelphia
Athletics and Clark Grifntf
has been extolled because he has
taken on iris Speaker with the
Washington team. Joe Mccarthy
manager of the Chicago Cubs. is
lacking his judgment against that
of Mack and Griffith by signing two
Kids whom he thinks will do more
good for him than the two veterans
will do for their teams.
The Cubs are now mobilizing Tor
the trip to Catalina Island in the
Pacific and with them will go the
two kid players upon whom Nc
earthly rests a lot of hopes. one
Of them is English. young man
who played shortstop for Toledo
in 1926. and the the other is Earl
Webb, who played the outfield for
Louisville.
Mccarthy is figuring on Q young
blood team that may win cham
pionship soon--perhaps this year
and that will be a thorn in the big
zoe of the National League for sew
tral years to come. He played the
same game at Louisville when he was
manager of the club in that city. He
mixed up MS Olu tlIiSIS Will MS

remnants, and since that time Louis

Mccarthy Shrewd Pilot.
With what Mccarthy had in 1926
he made bid for the National
League pennant. When his players
were in training Il year ago at Cata-
lima most folks didn't think much of
them except the pitchers and catch
crs. There was reason enough for
that. Yet Mccarthy aroused that
group of merely average ball players
10 such a pitch of enthusiasm and
coached them to such good purpose
in sound base ball that at one time
Chicago was within two or three
games of being an actual pennant
contender and at no time doomed as
a hopeless ball club.
This year Mccarthy has been able to
provide better material for his intield
and outfield and he may sally into
the pennant race with a rush. There
is no base ball manager in the Ma
tional League who will play the Cubs
cheaply in 1927, because all have dis

Most Women Found to

DISCOVER STRANGE
TRIBE OF AMAZONS

Fiflis-In the wilds Of the Asiatic
Caucasian mountains explorers have
discovered a semi-civilizcd tribe Of
people who arc ruled by women.
They are called maiden people"
by neighboring tribes because
women do all the work, all the fight
ing and enjoy every privilege they
desire. They have carried feminism
beyond the widest dreams Of mod
crn women. All that men have to
do is eat the food that is set before
them, sleep most of the time, fish
if they choose and smoke stone
bowled pipes that their women fill
and light for them. The woman
who provides the most luxuries for
her husband and sons is most re-
spected by her people.

TAX REDUCTION

The season of tax reduction is at hand. Congress is
about to- come into session and in the meantime the important
Ways and Means Committee is considering the question of
finances. We will hear a great deal about tax reduction in
the next few months and some sort of tax reduction there
will be. This year it seems that Republican and Democratic
leaders are pretty generally agreed on the kind of tax reduction
we ought to have. They feel that the corporation tax ought
to be reduced and some of the surtaxes cut down. The diff
ference OF opinion is not so much on the kind of reduction as
on the amount of it. Some of the leaders want a reduction of
$4OO,O0O,OOO or over while others, and this class includes most
of the administration leaders, think that the cut ought not be
more than $250,000,O00. Their argument is that we cannot
estimate the financial condition of the country a year hence
and that any reduction over $780, 100000 may imperil the
program OF debt reduction, a program which by all means
ought to be continued. 1t would seem therefore that those who
advocate a more moderate reduction have the better of the
argument.
1t might be well to call attention to the fact that while
the American people are taxed to Tie extent of $780, 900 900
each year, the greater part of the money goes not to the
federal government but to the state and local units. The
national government collects a great deal less than the
smaller units.
1t is this local taxation which is now the real burden on
the ordinary consumer. Local taxation is one of the condi-
lions which has handicapped the farmer. While the federal
government is steadily reducing taxes the local governments
are making no such moves.
After all, people are themselves to blame for this. They
vote the taxes on themselves. 1T is the peoples business and
they do the paying and suffering. But attention cannot be cali
ed too often to the Importance of reducing local taxes. Economy
and efficiency are as necessary to local as to national gov
eminent.

WHAT'S YOUR HURRY.

Automobile and other street accidents have become so
numerous In many cities that campaigns have been COM
menced to teach the public, pedestrians as well as drivers of
vehlcies, the wisdom of exercising care on the public streets.
Investigations of accidents on the streets have developed
that a large per cent of them is avoidable; that they are the
result of carelessness on the part of the driver of the vehicle
or the pedestrian who is the worst sufferer when a collision
occurs.
Men and women rush across the streets or between street
cars and vehicles, apparently without any thought of the
dangers they face in doing So Many persons can be seen
leaving a street car at the rear door and crossing the street
oehnd the car, thereby running the risk of being struck
by a car passing on the "bind" side.
Automobile drivers are not blameless in the matter. Many
OF them take chances in rushing across a street ahead of a
street car or another automobile, all for the evident purpose of
saving a few seconds, as if the saving of time justified them in
running the risk of being struck.
The drivers of vehicles are blamed for many more accidents
than should be charged to them. Pedestrians. have a response
blity which they should not attempt to evade. 1t is much easier
for the individual to wait a few seconds than it is for the
driver OF an automobile to stop to prevent striking a person
who has rushed into the middle of the street in thoughtless
haste.
Every person, driver or pedestrian, who uses the streets
has it in his power to aid in making the streets safe for all.
We spend so much for fun and have so little of it.
This often seems to be the land of the free and the home
of the easy.
Dealers say we are smoking less tobacco, but don't say
more what.
Monday papers are interesting if you care for the NOR
tally statistics.
Once the unsophistcated thought the world fiat; now they
