RACE DRIVER
TO COME HERE

Lou Moore, Hollywood race driver,
who has one of the fastest cars in
the west, is negotiating with the race
commission here for entry blanks for
the races to be held at the seventh
annual Cochise county fair.
Moore states that his machine has
been winning many races but that he
is anxious to take in more territory.
This driver says that he likes dirt
tracks and wants to Try this one out.
AS the International Speedway is rated
one of the fastest tracks in the south
west, he is expected to like 1T.
Chairman Rex Rice, of the race
commission, has letters on file from
more than dozen of the beeo known
race drivers in the west, from Denver
to the gulf and from the coast to east
Texas. The indications are that the
seventh annual Cochise county fair will
see the finest race program ever staged
in the southwest.

UNRE'LIABILITY
OF NEWSP PAPERS
CALLED DANGER

| BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. / H9-
Newspapers that misrepresent were
/ pictured as a greater menace to a
nation than treacherous communist
propaganda by Lord Hewart, lord
chief Justice of England and baron
of bury, in his address before the
American Bar association tonight.
Lord Hewart's speech was the cap"
sheaf of a day of technical business
brought before the convention in re-
ports of 25 committees and sections.
He was introduced by William How
ard Taft, chief justice Of the United
States.
Lord Hewart's speech was on the
subject of common law, but he Wove
into it his references to communism
and newspapers. He laid it down as
a philosophical principle that the
administration of justice is of greater
| Importance to a. people than any
thing else,, asserting that confidence
in the administration of justice makes
people contented and happy.
where there are just laws, ad-
ninistered without fear or favor, by
incorruptible and impartial judges,
there is not much cause to fear
popular outbreaks or revolution
Lord Hewart said.
1T is, you may think, principally
for that reason that treacherous pro-
paganda of communism, so dangerous
in many other countries, can have
little effect in the United States or
Great Britain.
"It is beyond the imagination of
h11pn1-innH1c
EngIishmen would wish to change
their free institutions for the CHASTITY
tyranny by which the people OF
Russia are, after fashion, ruled"
OF newspapers, he said What is
called the freedom of the press con-
sists simply in the right which every
person has to publish anything ne
pleases, so long as it is not libel.
AT common law, newspapers have no
special privileges in the matter o.
publication, though by statute they
are specially protected with reference
to the publication of reports of pro-
ceedings in courts of justice and
public meetings. Nor, on the other
hand, have they any special obliga-
tions or liabilities. The right OF
freedom Of speech is similarly the
right to say. anything, in public Or
private, which is not either seditious
or blasphemous or defamatory of any
person.
"I should like very briefly to refer
to a change which seems to have
taken place in the character and
the aims OF much Of the newspaper
press. 1t gees without saying thai
if self government is to be a real
and living thing, the citizens who
share the responsibility Of governing,
that is to say all the citizens ought
at least to have access to information
upon public affairs which is both
accurate and adequate.
zone of the instruments for that
purpose is, or at any rate ought to
be, the newspaper press. You CANNOT
expect the right verdict from a jury
if the evidence is not fairly anoi
laid before it. To put the
matter the other way round, is il
not really a kind of treason against
the political sovereign deliberately TO
mislead the public either by active
misrepresentation or by calculated

Combs Always On

OOAAAUo always OAA
In a sense, what the star pitcher
had to say about the Waners holds
good in the case of Earl Combs of the
Yankees.
Of course, Ruth, Gehrig, Lazzeri,
Meusel and the rest of the Yankee
sluggers~ supply the power but Combs
adds the scoring punch by his amaz-
ing ability to be on the bases when
the swatsmiths of the Yanks go into
action.
I regard Combs as the best lead-off
man in the American league. Despite
the fact that he is six-footer, Combs
has an unusual crouch at the bat that
makes him hard to pitch to-. Add to
this a keen eye and you understand
why Combs works the opposing pitcher
for SO many bases on balls.
In addition to his ability to wait the
pitcher out, he can hit the ball and is
very fast. The last time looked at
the averages he was third among the
Yankees, only Gehrig and Ruth boast

Pittsburgh looked like the best bal
anced club of the four contenders. In
the spring, I liked the chances of st.
Louis, Pittsburgh and New York much
more than Chicago. Pittsburgh was
my first choice, New York my second.
"I rather think it is the best all
around club in the league" continued
the veteran pitcher, "but the Waner
boys have made most Of my trouble
this summer against the Pirates. When
I succeeded in stopping them, the
Pirates weren't SO tough.
Lloyd leads off. He's fast, good
hitter but not so dangerous as Paul;
he's hard to pitch to and very fast.
He's on the bases an awful lot. Paul
hits third and if Lloyd gets on, it's up
to Paul to drive him in and get on
himself. He's done that thing plenty
on me this summer"

not fear the Yankees as much as you

manager, "but it's the mediocrity Of
the rest of the league that makes the
