J. Finley Wilson's paper, the Wash
ington Eagle, is regional director OF
the Middle Atlantic Division of the
Standardization League, while
Nelson's madame, one of the shrewd-
est colored women in this same coun-
Tx is Vice Chairman Of the Advisory
Committee of this same League, and
Ferdinand Q. Morton, Tammany
Halls Negro political leader, Is
Chairman of this Advisory Commit
tee.
Morton is pas. master in New
York politics, and there aye few, if
any. politicians, white or colored,
that can surpass lin. He has the
absolute confidence of Governor
Smith and all of the rest Of those
Tammany Hall Democrats. Under
his administration, more Negroes are
holding offices in New York than has
ever been known before. As an evil
dence of somebody's ability, we were
told by one Of Our Richmond colored
men, who lived twenty years in New
York. that he was deputy sheriff in
New York for four years, drew $40
per DAY as salary and he never once
saw inside of the sheriff's office.
This was though, no doubt, before
Morton's rise to power, when Chief
Lee held sway. Be that as it may
1--WE are selling 1t as we bought it,
telling it as it was told to US with
no guarantee as to "favor or alco-
holic content. J. Finley Wilson
said he declined the appointment.
What we want to know is, how in the
world could anyone have rendered to
him such political honor?
Unless something is done to curb
the activities of Assistant United
States Attorney General Mabel
walker Willebrandt, further de-
fections are sure to follow. 1t may
be though that the election of Hon.
Herbert Hoover, of California, as
President of the United States is al
ready assured. 1t may be that Hon.
Alfred E. Smith, Of New York, is
staring defeat in the face. If this
be a fact, and the Republican lead
ers are so sure that they will make
no effort to poll the votes for the
Republican ticket in the doubtful
states of the North, East and West
and the protesting ones of the South,
then Hon. John R. Hawkins and his
corp of managers are all right and
no effort should be made to improve
or correct the conditions, we have
taken the time to portray. But may
be, after all, it is none of our bust
ness. We had these thoughts in mind
and we have expressed them. Selah.

PSYCHOLOGY TO
PLAY PART IN
WORLD SERIES
By FRANK GETTY

NEW YORK, Oct. Next In
order to pitching, batting and the
'breaks" of baseball, psychology
plays most important part in de-
termining the outcome of any given
world series.
The New York Yankees are go.
ing to be particularly hard to bear
this year because they will enter
the post-season series as the under
dogs.
AS under dogs the Yankees en-
ter the world series against the
st. Louis Cardinals, and as under
dogs the Yankees ever have proven
that their bite is worse than ther1
bark.
In the pool parlors and pop pa
vilions of Manhattan, the National
League champions are quoted favor
ties to win the coming series at
rapidly lengthening odds.
The Yankees have hardly one
whole ball player on their list of
eligibles. Babe Ruth is limping,
Tony Lazzeri can hardly spoon
home his spaghetti, Lou Gehrig has
II goose egg lump on his caranium
Joe Dugan has trick knee that
will jun. everywhere except through
the hoop, Mark ,Koenig's tonsils
are heavier than his hitting, while
Herb Pennock and Earl Combs ,a
ball club in themselves, have join
ed the "dear friends of the radio
audience who will take their
world series with little static.
The best indication of what may
be expected of the New York club
when it faces the Cardinals is to be
found in fond recollections of the
last series which the Yankees play.
ed with the Philadelphia Athletics
during the second week in Septem.
Der.
Athletics Spanked
The Yankees had watched a lead
of 1879 games wither away, and
had seen the blanched paehyderms
from the city of brotherly love
plunge past as though all the steel
vcsters of Philadelphia were at
their heels.
And then the Yankees, not much
stronger intrinsically than at the
present time, arose and spanked
! those same white elephants until
they squealed for mercy.
I When they start anything as un'
der dogs, the Yankees are exceeding
Nv hard to beat. The Cardinals arc
! logical favorites on form, but their
American League rivals are likely
to mangle the dope sheet.
( Both teams are working out at
Yankee stadium today. Both man
ayers fear the bad effect of a let
down at this time, and will try to
Keep their men on their toes for the
next three days.
Meanwhile, with the National
League champions accorded a bet
ter than even chance to win, and
the enforced descent of the Yankees
from the baseball heights in pros
pect. interest in the forthcoming
series grows apaee.
Already all the reserved seats
both for New York and 81. Louis
have been sold.
