Shorn of Outstanding Young
Stars of 1927, But Bolstered
With Major League Veter-
ans Midwest Loop Starts
Today With Four Favorites
For Title

Chicago, April 10.-(AP)-Shoru
of its outstanding young stars Of q

jor veterans, the American associ-
alton opened its 1928 season today.
The scheduled opening games:
Milwaukee at Columbus.
Kansas City at Toledo.
st. Paul at Louisville.
Minneapolis at Indianapolis.
Four teams stood out in the opin-
ions Of the experts" Is the leading
contenders for the championship.
They were Milwaukee, st. Paul, In
dianapolis and Toledo, the 1927 pen
nant winner. But the presence of
SO many veterans convinced many
that it was a t,ssup.
Brewers Have New Team
Milwaukee has almost a new team
this year, having lost pitchers Ossie
Orwell and Rubber" Jonnard, Dem
mis- Gearin, Paul johnson, Roy Fish,
Lloyd Flippin and Harry Riconda.
In their places the club has recruited
some hustling youngsters and one or
two major league vets. It is from
Manager Lelivelt, who took the
Brewers from the second division to
a fighting first division club, that
the Milwaukee fans look for big
things.
Indianapolis has made only a few
changes, losing lnfielder Johnny
Butler to the Chicago Cubs and pick
ing up Pitcher Emil Yde and Out
fielder Roy Spencer Of the Pirates.
The new club owner is James A.
Perry.
Crack lnfield Gone
st. Paul has lost its cunning in
field - Norman Mcmillan, Leo Du-
rocher and Gene Robertson-to the
majors, but expects to march to
pennantville with its heavy pitching
staff and new rockies.
Toledo has made several additions

hole left by Molly Mcguire, who is

100 per cent organized. Today the
union is wiped out, the miners work
under the 1917 scale, similar condi-
tons exist in practically all the
southwestern states. Kansas miners
are working for whatever scale the

REDUCES RELIEF
FOR UNEMPLOYED
Discriminate Against
Girls In England

LONDON, July "a (ES).-In
spite of the fact that conditions are
becoming worse and that it is be-
coming more impossible for a young
worker to find employment, the gov
eminent has announced a reduction
of unemployment relief for the
young workers.
At present, unemployed young
workers receive II shillings per
week (S4.00), on which they are ex-
pected to live. The new rate for
young workers is 10 shillings for
boys Of IS (S2.40 per week., shil-
lings for girls (S1.90); for 10 years
of age, IL shillings for boys and 10
shillings for girls; and for 20, boys
II and girls II .shillings per week.
No explanation for the lower rate
for girls is made.
If the reduction of unemployment
relief is continued, the young work
ers fear that they will find them
selves in the situation of American
youth, where no relief of any kind
is given the unemployed.

which the waterways now are filled
with great chunks of broken ice.
These IL men include the Alessan-
drini group-the six men who float
ed away with the envelope of the
polar craft-and the Roald Amund-
sen rescue party.
The Italian government has re-
quested the Soviet relief committee
to continue searches for the Ales-
sandini group and has offered to
place two Italian seaplanes at the
disposal of the Soviet committee.
The Naval Scientific Institute has
applied for permission to send their
ship, Persey, to Franz Joseph Land

party. The society believes Amund-

The ice breakers Krassin and

Both probably will proceed back

INSURANCE PLAN
SHOWN AS FRAUD
General Motors Will
Profit
Continued from Page One

COUttHUeu from rage O1e
The labor turnover in the General
Motors Company is said to be be-
tween 10 and II per cent per year.
This means that an almost COM
pletely new force is taken in about
every eight or nine years.
In other words, practically
speaking, little insurance pay
ments will actually be made,
since the workers will have left, but
the Morgan firm will actually rake
in a huge profit for the transaction.
Only those workers who die with
in few years of their employment
by the concern will derive any
benefit" for, according to the av-
erage, they will have left the firm
and have lost their insurance after
about eight years.
The Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company, which issues the insur-
ance, is likewise Morgan-controlled
concern. It's vice-president, Fred
erick H. Ecker, who was intrumen-
tai in putting over the scheme, is
active in the traction and power
gang which operates in New York
State. He is a director of both the

roads.
