By GEORGE K1RKsEY
(United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Dec. IL" Good
ball players are hard to get.
Managers and magnatcs here for

league were saying it over and over
again today without really saying 1t
ut all.
No trades. No deals. Nothing.
Clocks like YOU can't trade Il
ball player nowadays unless you
give an ablc-bodied 80 hitter for
a broken down vctcran,' one man
agcr muscd.
Every ball club was looking for Il
good player, but had nothing to give
in return. The Pittsburgh Pirates
had Glenn Wright, star shortstop
and one of the best players in tn"
National league, on the trading
block, but thus far no one was will
ng to OFFER anything like an even
for him.
Wright is in much the same fix
ms Kiki CuvlCr at Pittsburgh, and
got into a rut last year. \ change
of scenery might bring Wright back
20 his former brilliancc, but ap.
parcntlv no one wants him.
Several clubs came here expecting
60 make deals, but none of them
gould agree on any trades at ycstcr-
days gathering and none were in
prospect for today. The New York
Giants sold Vie AIdridgc, the re.
,alritrant pitcher, and Russell
Wrightstonc, utility infirldcr, to the
Newark International league club

season with Newark. winning five

 MAY UNDERMINE RUSSIA

LONDON-The peasant revolt and tn Separatist movement impending in Ukraine are combining to under mine the Soviet government of Rus sia, according to reliable reports fil- tering into Europe. The states along the border are said to be planning to break away from the domination of Kremlin and the fear of outside aid to this movement is causing Commu- mist officials anxiety. The most se- rious threat to the government is found in the revolt of the Kulaks, or rich peasants. These people, stirred to fury by the governments requisi- tioning of grain, have slain nearly 800 local officials of the Soviet with in the past year.

MISSION BOAT WRECKED
 IN STORM AT HOONAH

According to reports received here by Rev. David Waggoner there was regular typhoon at Hoonah last Saturday night when a number of small boats were torn from their moorings, among them the mission boat, A. G. Lindsay, which was swamped and sank.
 Other boats were badly battered, one of them on which were two men narrowly escaping destruction. The Lindsay was fastened by a new cable which snapped like string when she was struck by the storm. It is said the masts of the Lindsay are still out of the water at low tide but the damage has not yet been estimated. As she was insured, the matter of salvaging her will be left to the insurance company. Rev. Waggoners expects to go to Hoonah next week to investigate the effects the storm.-S -Stroller's Weekly.

The Prosecutor has been searching for records which might show that Captain Carey of the Ves- tris notified the owners of his ves- sel of the serious condition of the boat, but the owners instructed him to wait for a sister ship, the Voltaire, to effect the rescue and avoid salvage costs. These charges were not proved and the steamship line denied them.
 Although MT. Futile did not reveal what angle his investigation will take it is believed he will go still further into the placing of the Ves- tris cargo and faulty inspection.

- Armistice Day Speech

WASHINGTON Whatever may be thought in Europe as to the wis dom of his criticism of the dealings between Europe and the United States as expressed in his Armistice Day address, President Coolidge ap- pears well satisfied with the speech and it's reception in America. There is no disposition on the part of the White House or the Administration in general to regret what the Pres ident had to say. On the contrary the impression is that advisors to the President take satisfaction in his criticisms. They and the President are convinced there has been popular approval of the speech in the United States and. apparently are not wor- ried by adverse opinions expressed in Europe.
