Success Adages
Spur Filipino
in Ring Career

Fan Francisco. May H.
Speedy Dado, Filipino flyweight
who only recently was defeated
by Newsboy Brown, keeps a
scrapbO0k which he uses for
notices on how to succeed.
Among other things to be
found in Dado's reminder are
these familiar adages:
l. Choose to do the right
thing.
2. Follow the advice of
people who know.
3. Don't let the head get big.
4. Don't be disappointed
over criticism. Maybe you
need some.
5. Above everything. never
do a thing without your whole
might in it.
The little Filipino. although
beaten by Brown, is being hailed
by coast critics as one of the
best in his class.

ALEXANDER HAS
GALA DAY WITH
9 STRIKE0UTS
Cubs Run Winning Streak to
Six Games; Wilson Hits
Fourth Homer
LOU GEHRIG CLOUTS ONE
Athletics Crush st. Louis
Browns; Washington Pitched
to Victory
(By the Associated Press>


Given scant consideration in pre-
season forecasts, the Cincinnati
Reds are gliding along within easy
striking distance of the National
League lead.
Good pitching, sensational field
ing particularly by Hughie Critz,
and timely batting have marked the
Reds fine showing in the race thus
far. Today they rested but half a
game behind the New York Giants
who hold the top rung.
Red Lucas won his sixth game in
seven starts at Cincinnati yesterday
when the Reds beat the Boston
Braves. 3 to 0. Lucas allowed only
six hits and batted out a triple and
scored run. Bunched hits off Bob
Smith in the third and fourth in
nings gave Cincinnati all it's runs.
Two more double plays sent the
Reds season total to 40.
Alexander Strikes Out Nine
Grover Cleveland Alexander
struck out nine men at st. Louis as
the Cardinals defeated the Phillies
again, 3 to 2. Jimmy Wilson caught
for the Pills until the second inning
when he was sold to the Cardinals
for several players. Jimmy i'm
mediately left the game, changed his
uniform and is to catch for his new
club today. Wilson replaces Bob
O'Farrell, traded to the giants for
George Harper, veteran outfielder.
Art Nehf outpitched Dazzy Vance
and the Cubs ran their winning
streak to six games at the expense
of the Brooklyn Dodgers, 3 to 0. The
Robins got only five singles off
Nehf and he never was in danger.
Vance pitched we'll but he hooked up
with Nehf when Art was as good as
he was with the Giants q few years
ago. Hack Wilson hit his fourth
homer Of the year.
Rain forced postponement Of the
Giants Pittsburgh Pirates game at
Forbes Field.
Gehrig Gets Another
An error by Aaron Ward Per-
mitted the New York Yankees to
tie the score in the ninth and win in
the 10th from Cleveland, to 6, at
New York. Gehrig's fourth home
run of the season came in the sixth
inning with the bases full but home
runs by Luke Sewell and Langford
in the seventh and eighth gave the
Indians a 6 to s lead. A bad error
by Ward, however, permitted the
champions to tie it up in the ninth.
Meusel's double with Ruth on base
ended the battle in the next frame.
Continuing their savage batting,
the Athletics crushed the st. Louis
Browns, IL to 5, at Philadelphia.
Sam Gray was rudely treated by his
former teammates in the first three
innings and his two successors,
Strelecki and Crowder, also suffered.
Cochrance, Bishop, Kress and
Schultz hit home runs.
Senators Beat Tigers
Sad Sam Jones pitched the Wash
ington Senators to 9 to 5 victory
over the Tigers at Washington:
Three Detroit pitchers were found
for Is hits by the Senators, Billings
and Holloway being particularly
easy marks.
The Boston Red Sox and Chicago
White Sox continued their battle for
last place with Carrigan's crew tenn
porarily holding the advantage
through a A to 3 win at the Hub.
Todt's homer with Ruffing on base
was the decisive blow that sent the
White Sox down to defeat.

OVERPRODUCTION
Faced BY Country; "Too
Much Efficiency Is
The Cause

Seattle.--In an address to the min
|eral section Of the American Bar As
|sociation, DR.. George Otis Smith, di-
rector of the United States Geological
Survey, again insisted that this coun-
try is "over-engined" and that 100
per cent efficiency" can not be thought
of.
"The nation is confronted with an
excess of production" he said. "Pro-
gress, so-called, may overstep reason.
Most of our industries are overgrown.
Supply is ever ahead Of demand with
little hope and expectation of capac-
ity orders.
"Under these chronic conditions
neither 100 per cent efficiency nor a
full measure Of economy can be
thought Of"
Speaking specifically of the mining
industry, DR.. Smith said this industry
has grown too fast, and that men best
informed in coal, copper, oil, lead, zinc
and sttel "keenly realize the ever
present hazard of overproduction."

PRODUCTION

Washington. are producing
more goods today than we are able
to SELL" said Congressman Mead, in
discussing unemployment on the floor
of the house.
Mr.. Mead quoted from government
reports to show the increased produc-
tivity through improved machinery
and scientific methods. Nearly half
as much again is produced in agri-
culture" he said. "Three and half
times as much is produced in min
ing. Two and three-fourths times as
much produced in manufactures.
Nearly three times as much output
has occurred in railway transporta-
tion.
I'm any well-organized society this
incraese would mean a similar in
crease in the welfare of all closes
of society. However, this is not the
case; wages have not gone up equally
with the increase of production, al
though average wages have shown an
increase in the more recent part of
this period of larger production. The
result is that one class of our indus
trial society has not received it's fair
share of this larger productivity
Nearly all the excess which should
have gone to the WORKING forces has
been received by the richer classes of
our society. They in turn saved and
converted this surplus into capital
and instruments of production and in
that way further increased the total
products of industry. The result of
this unjust system is that our coun.
try is now in an industrial depres-
sion"

STAR CHAMBER
PLAN of Old is Revived in
Iowa

Des Moines, Iowa-The State Board
of Control is in legal tangle be-
cause of its attempt to compel John
c. Lewis, president of the Iowa Fed
Grafton of Labor, to testify before it
in star chamber session.
The trade unionist charged the
board with violating the anti prison
contract law when it contracted with
the Dearborn Company of Chicago for
the labor of 800 Iowa convicts.
The board ordered Lewis to appear
before that august body. He was de-
MED an attorney, could not employ a
stenographer and was told the hear
ings would be closed to the public.
The unionist refused to appear and
the board called on Judge Herman F.
Zeuch to declare him in contempt.
Attorneys for Lewis have wound
the board in legal tangle by these
questions:
What crime, if any, does one who
refuses to obey subpoena of the
state board of control commit ?
Contempt of court? Or just con-
tempt of the board?
"If there is a crime which fits the
act, should the accused be found inno-
cent or guilty by a judge in the regu
lar contempt of court proceedings, or
can he demand a jury trial? ?"
The unionist's attorneys agree that
the board may conduct hearings in
any manner they elect when matters
of finance and management of insti-
tutions under their care are ques-
toned or their employees are accused,
but they have no authority to conduct
such inquisitorial hearings when a
citizen questions the legality of their
acts.

CHURCHMEN
Favor 5-Day Week; Say
Better Social Order
Is Certain

New York. - Science has accom-
plished the impossible and dreams of
a better social order can no longer be
dismissed as the impractical objec-
tives of sentimentalists, says the Fed
eral Council Of the Churches of Christ
il Labor Sunday message prepared
by the Councils Commission on the
Church and Social Order.
The five-day week in certain indus
tries is possible because of machine
ry, new power resources, scientific
management and the growing effic-
iency of labor, the churchmen say.
"A score of years ago the churches
expressed the ideals Of religion in
their bearings on social and industrial
relations. These ideals include aboli-
tion of child labor, protective regula-
tions for women in industry; abate-
ment and prevention of poverty; pro-
lection Of workers from dangerous
machinery, from occupational diseases
and and from enforced unemployment;
right to organize; arbitration and
conciliation; gradual and reasonable
reduction of hours of labor to the low
est practical point; living wage
as minimum in every industry and
the highest wage that each industry
can afford; new emphasis upon the
application of Christian principles to
the acquisition and use of property
and the most equitable division of the
product of industry that can ultimate
ly be devised.
Certain phases of the industrial
problems press for immediate atten-
tion," the churchmen say. "The past
year has seen a serious condition of

FRIGHT TO WORK"
NOT PROPERTY

Any property right is derived from
ownership or right of use.
If the right to work is property,
then human labor must be an article,
a commodity; that is, some inanimate
thing, something that can be bought
and sold. This involves more than a
mere legal question, but the legal as
pect of the question is based upon
physical facts, and upon the method
of reasoning by which the conclusion
is educed.
Among thinking men it has never
been held that work is purely manual
labor. The work Of the hands, how
ever mechanical, involves something
Of mentality. In all kinds of work the
mental and the physical elements are
differentials; sometimes the manual
predominates, sometimes the mental,
but in no kind of work is either Who'll
ly absent.
Work, whether termed mental or
manual, is the expression of the cre-
ative ability of the individual; it is
power to create, whether an idea, a
fact, or piece Of furniture; in all,
lit is the human attribute.
There is no manner of human labor
that is thing apart from the body
and the mind of the human being.
Commodities and articles of commerce
are the products of human labor exer-
|cised upon materials.
There is as great difference be-
tween human labor and articles and

many, while very large number Of
men were out Of work. The Depart
ment Of Labor has estimated that
there were nearly 100000 fewer per-
sons employed in January Of this year
than in January, 1925. Since the So
called normal unemployment is not
less than 100000, this government
estimate means that at least 1900, 900
workers must have been unemployed
during tn past winter. Such con-
dition is economically unsound and in
tolerable from the point of view Of
Christian brotherhood"

CANADIAN LABOR
Shows Big Gains in Pro-
ductiyity

Montreal, (I. L. N. S.).-Very sub
ntantial increases in the productive
capacity of Canadian labor is shown
by study made by Prof. H. Michel,
McMaster university, Toronto. The
professor bases hiscalculations on the
yearly production values contained in
the decennial census, these values be-
ing adjusted by the price index num-
bers. He summarizes his conclusions
as follows:
From 1890 to 1900 the value of pro-
duction per worker increased 15.5 per
cent, or an annual average increase
of 1.55 per cent.
From 1900 to 1910 the production
per worker increased 58.5 per cent, or
an annual average increase Of 5.85 per
cent.
From 1910 to 1920 the production
per worker increased 73 per cent, or
an average annual increase of 0.73
per cent.
From 1920 to 1926 production per
worker increased 52.8 per cent, or an
annual average increase of 8.8 per
cent.
These increases in the productivity
of labor are attributed to (1) the per-
fection of mechanical aids; GU better
education of the modern workers as
compared with their predecessors;
(3) improved working conditions
which have served to invigorate the
workman, reducing accidents and less
ening the amount of spoiled work.
