A GLOOMY
PROSPECT

The cost OF living in American
cities will rise, and this will result in
a decrease in the amount of money
wage earners and salaried employees
will be able to spend upon Injuries,
Carl Snyder, economist for the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of New York, pre-
diets for the not-distant future. Prices
will rise in the cities, he says, because
of the steady drift of the farm popu-
lation to urban centers. Two and
a half million persons have left the
farms since 1920; and this, he holds,
has decreased the active farm work
ers by from eight to ten per cent. If
Mr.. Snyder's prediction comes true,
it may not be bad thing 1t may
serve to solve the farm problem, but
it will doubtless create others equally
pulling An5 yet when we consider
that this country spends eight or nine
billionns a year for the maintenance
and replacement of automobiles alone,
it does not appear that a slight eco
nomic adjustment caused by rise IN
the cost of living would cause great
deal of suffering. Philadelphia Pub

In the morale of the telephone group
of 1927 shines the same passion for
promptness which thrilled weary Inca
runners on their gruelling Journeys

the fixed idea Of his craft-that upon
the go-between rests the well-being o.

AIMS AND PURPOSES
 0F AMERICAN LEGION

The fourth article on the aims and purposes of the American Legion, which has been running in the Gate- way this week, is presented below. One more article will complete the series.
 The program and policies which the Legion has adopted for its Child Welfare work are outstanding, pro- gressive and of high standard. A nationwide organization is being de- veloped to carry on this work. A National Child Welfare Committee of nine Legionaires and three mem- bers each of the Auxiliary and Forty and Eight has general charge
 The program includes service and assistance to- dependent children of Veterans of the World War. This service and assistance is to rend- cred by securing Federal State, and local aid that may be available to such children; by extending tempor- ary assistance through financial re- lief in the home; in foster homes or
 
 billits, and by stimulating interest, extending advice and guidance in i'm proving and expanding local facilities in the States by improved Child Welfare legislation and more ade- quate appropriations.
 It is recognized that no child should be deprived of home with it's own parents because of poverty,

 only, and therefore provision Is made for supplementary assistance in the home from the National Fund when local resources prove inadequate to keep the family unit intact.
 It is further recognized that next to home with it's own parents or parent, a carefully selected foster home is the best substitute to pro- vide a normal environment for a child. Many times when child's own home is not available for it's care, there are good relatives ready and willing to provide home, and there fore every effort is made to place children with good relatives when their parents are dead or physically or mentally disabled and unable to care for them.

 The National league situation was as Jumbled today as 1t was in mid July and there is yet to be developed the real favorite for championship honors.
 Long a stumbling block for po- tential champions. the Boston Braves yesterday completed a cleanup of a three game series with the Pitts burgh Pirates. when Kent Greenfield, one of John McGraw's castoffs, set back the Buccaneers 5-2. This vic- tory coupled with the Chicago Cubs 6.2 win over Philadelphia. put Donie Bush's club one and one half games out of first place. Carmen Hill. the National leagues leading pitcher. was thumped for the Braves vic tory. but poor support aided in his downfall.
 Guy Bush. one of the Cubs pitch ing mainstays. got away to shaky start against the Phils but steadied down after his mates had batted Ferguson for four runs in the sec ond.
 Tho Giants ended their series in St. Louis by droping one to the Cardinals 6-2. Dutch Henry went to pieces in the eighth after he had held the worlds champions score less for seven innings. A six-run ral- ly featured by Frank Snyder's home run with two on bases. exploded hopes of the Giants for clean sweep in the Mound city.
 Cincinnati took both ends of double header from the Brooklyn Dodgers. Jakie May had the better of Doug McWeeney, in the opener and won, 3-1, while the Reds pound- cd Pitt for 5-4 decision in the sec- ond. Jack Hendricks Burgomasters climbed back into fifth place through their victories.
 Walter Johnson's 20 anniversary in major league baseball was cele- brated at Washington where the De- troit Tigers won out in a ninth in- ming rally. 7-6. Goose" Goslin, and Harry Heilman led the hitting with three safeties apiece.
 The Cnlcago Whlte Sox ana Pnll- adelphia broken even in a twin bill. The Sox won the opener, "A. with Ted Lyons on the mound. A home run by Metzler in the ninth inning of the second put Chicago in the lead. but the Mackmen came right back to tie the score. Cochranes homer broke up this contest in the 12th innings, Philadelphia getting a 6-5 decision.
 Stewart pitched St. Louis to 3-2 win over Boston in the openeing game of a double bill. Hal Wiltes blanked the Missourians in the wind out. 80, allowing only two scratch hits. O'Rourke and sisler were the only Brownies to touch the Red Sox hurler.

Five Eastern and Three Western
 Stars Remain in Tourney

Seabright, N J., Aug P1Five eastern and three western stars to- day remained in the running for the mems singles bowl in the seabright Lawn Tennis and Cricket clubs 34th annual invitation tournament.
 Heading the doughty eight who struggled through to the quarter finals was William T. Tilden, of Philadelphia, the country's ranking player. Arriving a day late. he moved down two opponents most melodramatically and in rapid suc- cession. Other customers surviving were Francis T. Hunter. of New Ro- chelle, who eliminated the inter-col- legiate champion, Wilmer Allison. Jerry Lang, New York, Fritz Mer- cur. Bethlehem, Pa., and Elmer Griffin, formerly of California, but now living in New York.
 Western hopes for the coveted bowl were George Lott, Chicago; Lewis N. White Austin. Tex, and Cranston Holman, San Francisco.
 A hard-fought, inter-sectional duel was in prospect in the quarter-finals with Holman, conqueror of Richard N. Williams. arrayed against Hunter. Both have won their early matches in straight sets
