In these circumstances it is rather surprising that
the rebels have sent to Washington alleged dipo
matte mission whose first act is to start propaganda
against Ambassador Morrow. OF course there is no
chance OF that rebel mission being received by the

milton from the Hoover administration.
AS for the rebel propaganda, it is apt to do the
Mexican government much more good than harm.

Certian Legal Risks

EVEN the professions are not
- without their gambling fea-
lures. The lawyer who takes a case
on a contingent fee is certainly
gambling. The editor who signs a
newspaper writer to contract does
so with the expectation that the
hired hand will increase in value
during the term of service.
And there have been cases in
which the hired hand has discov-
cred that he, too, was a party to
the added gamble of whether the
paper would live up to the contract.

PeriIS of Hypocrisy

HYPOCRISY is the great secret
1 L of all our troubles with regard
to prohibition.
If a lot of drys hadn't thought
they could go on drinking in spite
of the law, we would never have
been inflicted with it.
If a lot Of drinking drys did not
imagine they could make themselves
solid with the public by shouting one
thing and doing another, we would
be getting along with it a good deal
better.
No law in American history has
led to so much lying, deceit and
pretense.
The entire situation Stinks to high
heaven with insincerity, Hip
pocket peddlers are paraded before
the bar of justice to fool the public,
while those who made the law and
those who enforce it snicker.
The time has come to have a
clean-cut showdown one way or
the other.
AS things now stand, the average
father finds it difficult, if not i'm
possible. to teach his children re-
spect for the law, or faith in gov
ernment.
The Indianapolis times., 1929-04-01
Drinking Congressman

MYTH two dry congressman on
w the carpet, prohibition grows
even more popular as a topic OF
conversation.
It seems to be taken for granted
that these congressman are guilty,
though they have only been accused,
and though the law says no one is
guilty until convicted.
Indeed, it seems to be taken for
granted that most dry congressman
drink now and then, and not with
out reason.
When a senator stands up pub
licly, as Bruce did, and declares
that all the sincerely dry senators
could be put in taxicab, what can
one expect?
1t is only fair to these particular
congressman, however, to give them
their day in court.
1t equally is fair to expel them
if that DAY results in conviction.

The notion that this city was

no town as grand without smoke

a glue factory near enough to smell
up the Lincoln memorial, or a steel

CHICAGO, Sept 24.-Joe Nc
Carthy, manager Of the Chicago

lieve his pitchers are not in shape
for the coming world series against
the Philadelphia Athletics.
"a lot of the fans think We will
lack pitchers in the SERIES" said
Mccarthy in answer to assertions
that recent mediocre pitching might
extend into the big series. We'll,
then, how about Connie Mack S

Meanwhile, despite the undertone
of doubt, Chicago newspapers were
filled with optimistic predictions. 1t
was reported that Pat Malone and
Charlie Root would be the first two
Cub pitchers used, and that the
order in which they will work de-
ponds upon their showing in two

that he will use his regular lineup
in these games and then rely upon

NEW YORK, Sept. 24-Sam Hid
reth, dean of American thorough
bred trainers, died at 7:50 a. m. to-
day at the Fifth avenue hospital,
where he had been in critical con-
dition after an abdominal operation.
Hildreth was IS years old. He had
been director of the Rancocas racing
stable and breeding farm of Harry
F. Sinclair and continued his train
ing activities until last August.
Hildreth was born in Independ
ence, Mo-, in 1866, and for many
years pursued the nomadic career OF
a small race man, gambler, jockey
and trader.
His father, Vincent, had been a
tobacco planter, whose chief inter
est was horses. The father finally
gave up tobacco entirely to spend
his time with the horses. Little Sam
went along. He rode number of
mounts.
Lucky Baldwin took Hildreth from
his nomadic career about the small
tracks and got him as a trainer, a
regular job. Since then, Hildreth's
interest was as a trainer and his
wealth was created through that
for he trained for the finest stables
Hilreth received the greatest salary
paid to a trainer from Harry Sin

BROOKLYN, N. Y, Sept. "a
Phil Scott of England gave Victoria
Campolo of Argentine boxing les
son Monday night at Ebbets Field
not a very good one. but it should
serve to convince the South Amer
lean that he must acquire fighting
brain. 1t was a ten-round decision
bout and went the limit.
Campolo hardly knows more than
the rudiments of the game. He
doesn't even know how to hold his
fists up.
It was a shame to send a good
looking prospect like Campolo up
against a man of SCOTS experience.
If Campolo is overmatched again 1t
may ruin him.
Because Scott defeated him,
Campolo shouldn't be discouraged,
but should go to work at once and
learn the tricks Of the game. When
Scott began to block Campolo'S one
best punch-a right to the heart
the Argentinian didn't know what
to do He was baffled and Scott
piled up points by jabbing and hook
ing him about the head.
Campolo has youth. strength and
ambition on his side. He can be
taught the necessary things about
boxing 1t would pay Campolo to
hire Scott as a sparring partner for
a while to teach him the important
things of which he is sadly in need.
There is not much in common be-
tween Campolo and Firpo. Campolo
is not as strongly built as Firpo and
he can't punch one-two- three with
the Wild Bull"
Scott didn't prove anything by
beating Campolo. The fight turned
out just about as expected. Scott
had entirely too much experience
for the green South American.
