M0biIizing in Asia

THE mobilization of troops in
Z Manchuria creates the same
kind Of blockade that occurred
when the little Red parade entered
Astor place to show the Chinese con-
sui how it felt.
If there were an international po-
lice force to call on, it could be
cleared the same way.
There being no such force, the
great governments of the world find
themselves obliged to form a volun-
tary committee.

XKTHEN you get right down to
w brass tacks. Mr.. Wickersham
said nothing original, or official.
His suggestion that the states
handle the retail end of prohibition,
while the federal government han
died the wholesale end, was quite
similar to the scheme proposed by
Woodrow Wilson.
The implication that he spoke
for either President Hoover. or the
crime commission. palpably was born
in the minds of those who wanted
to think so.

conducted under the rules az the

the running for the state amateur

this utilization is that Fort Brown
would not be eligible for the state
title. However. Lr. Rundell said Ne

title II his BOYS were to 70 that
far. II was further suggested that
the president OF the league make a

over thoroughly az the Friday ses-
sion. Indications are that the Val

body.
A schedule viii be formulated as
soon as possible after the next
meeting. at which time Ii will be
decided whether the league will be
split into Cameron and Hidalco
brackets. or whether IL will operate
as one unit.
Proponents OF the bracket system
are motivated BY a wish to cut
down travelling. Clements suggest
ed that the league operate as a
whole because otherwise the play
ers would see too much OF each
other" He referred TO several
squabbles and fights which ensued
last year. A split season also was
suggested by Clements.
All matters OF scheduling are eX-
pected to be cleared UP Friday.
