COOPERATE IN EQUIPMENT
INSPECTION MOVEMENT AUTO
CLUB OF STATE URGES

Because motoring conditions are
more severe on cars and drivers during
fall and winter, it is essential that all
vehicle safety equipment be in first
class condition, according to the Auto
mobile Club of Washington which
urges every automobile owner to check
the condition of brakes, tires, lights
and windshield swipe.
This suggestion is in keeping with
Motor Vehicle Equipment inspection
Period SO proclaimed by Chief Will
liam Cole, of the state highway patrol,
during the time from October 7 to oc-
tober 81, when special efforts will be
made by law enforcement officials to
require compliance with this safety
program.
The Automobile Club points out that
a large proportion of highway acci-
dents is directly traceable to the fail
ure on tn epartiof motorists to observe
laws requiring that equipment and
mechanism be maintained in proper
order.
BE PREPARED FOR JACK FROST;
FIRST FREEZE OCT. 2O-DEC. 20
The first freezing weather in the
western part of this state will occur
between October 20 and December 20,
according to the Automobile Club of
Washington which urges that motorists

Before using anti-freeze mixtures, be
sure that all parts of the cars cooling
system, including hoses and radiator,
are leak-proof, is the motor associa-
tion's advice. This will prevent loss of

OF record activity, again appeared In
enormous lots. It started with $4,000
shares at 26as and after brief firmness
close to that level reacted below 28.
The Electric Bond g. Share group
was turned over hriskly at advancing
prices for an hour or so and finally
gave ground when realizing appeared in
volume. The holding company stock
started the day in new high-record
ground at 1875, a gain of more than 8
points from Saturdays closing, and

COAL FORMS CRUX !
. OF LABOR PROBLEM \
Employment of Miners One Of
First Difficulties Facing
British Cabinet.
BY A. G. GARDINER.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
LONDON, July 1.--When the new
Parliament : assemblies tomorrow to
hear the Kings speech, in which the
new premier, Ramsay Macdonald, indi-
Gates the program OF the new govern,
ment, one question will overshadow all
the rest. That question is summed up
in the one word-coal
On this subject Premier Macdonald
is between the devil and the deep sea,
He has the alternative of refusing to
the miners the fulfilling of his pledge to
repeal instantly the eight-hour and re-
store the seven-hour day in the mines,
or Of redeeming the pledge in the face
of the knowledge that such course
means a new catastrophe to the coal
The deepest concern prevails owing
conference with the miners executives,
ME-. Macdonald had undertaken to In.
clude the redemption OF the pledge N
the Kings speech. II so, q firSt-class
crisis involving the existence Of the gov
eminent Is inevitable.
Situation Explained. =
The situation is this:
When the coal trade was at its lowest
ebb in 1926, the Baldwin government
repealed the seven-hour day in order to
lower the cost of production. Under the
sevenAhour day system the production
per man had fallen so substantially
that the cost had risen above the COM
petitive level, with disastrous conSe-
quences to the export trade and home
The wisdom Of repeating the T-hotr
day wae much questioned at the time
and was bitterly opposed by the Labor
party. On the eve Of the general cleo
ton the party gave q pledge that II 1t
was returned to power 1t would reduce
the miners hours at the first session OF
Meanwhile, whatever the strength of
the objection to the 8-hour day
policy, the fact of the recovery OF the
coal trade under Its operations is in
disputable. The cost Of production has
fallen 40 substantially that export trade
has enormously revived and the effect
on. the industries dependent on coal is
visible In the marked recovery of trade,
especially in iron and steel. ia
+ New pits have been opened and for
the first time in years certain i'm
portant coal fields have ceased to be
worked at loss. All instructed opin-
ion agrees that the restoration Of the
seven-hour day will plunge the In
dustry back INTO cnaoS ana leao 10 q
most devastating conflict. No one esti-
seven-hour day at less than shill-
ings per ton. the reaction of which
on the export trade and the home in
dustries alike will be disastrous.
Would Fix Wages.
The owners would be compelled to
refuse to pay increased piece-work rates
necessary for the maintenance Of the
present scale of wages and in the re-
would be In the impossible position of
having f1xed wages as well as hours
without regard to the economic coflse&
quencies to the industry of the country.
Such course could only result In
the overthrow of the government. For
even the Liberals, who opposed the eight
hour regulation, realize now the fatal

!NFIELDS ABOUT
 EVEN FOR SERIES
HoFls6y and FoXx Give Both Teams 2D Extra Batting Punch

New York. Oct. 3 Lq-The last time the Athletics and Cubs met in tho worlds series. 19 years ago, they presented two of ,he greatest infield combinations of all time. Time has enhanced rather than dimmed the fame of Tinker -Evars-C'hanco doubIeplay trio and the famous Collins Barry Baker quartet of 1910.
 Neither of the infielis that take their positions at WrigIey Field next Tuesday compares as a whole with those ancient arrays From an in diyldual standpoint however, the Cubs have one Of the greatest per formers of all time in Rogers Horns by while the Athletics have great youngstor in Jimmy FoXN. Frank Baker was the home run hero of his day and Chance q slugger, but neither had anything like the batting punch Of Hornsbv and FoXX.
 'If' Charley Grimm. the Cub field captain, is recovered sufficient ly from a broken left wrist to be back at top form, Jce McCarthy's infi"ld troupe figures to have a slight defensive edge on their Mack rivals as well as a margin in hitting strength.
 "If' the douhle-play figures mean anything, the Cubs have d more ef- tcctive combination, for they have registered more than 1Go twin kill inEs as compared to around 115 for the Athletics. At bat the Cub in fielders have an advantage Of about 10 points to the man with FoXx and Dykes, Hornshy and English topping their rivals by substantial margins.
 FoXH is a much more dangerous batsman than Grimm but the Cub captain is q consistent hitter, more finished fielder and more experience ed. Grimm was signed by Connie Mack when he was a kid of r back in l91 but he never got a trial with the As. This is his twelfth big league season and FoxN's fifth.
 Max Bishop, the slender Mack sec ond baseman, las a habit Of rising to the occasion, He might turn out to he q series hero but his record cannot compare with that Of his great rival. Hornshy, Bishop may be a better man at going back after pop flies but Hornsby has had q great year in the field as well as at bat. His batting mark is 40 points bet ter than Bishops and his experience Is a vital Cub asset.
 Joe Boley out of the game a good part Of the season, is a smoother working shortstop than the 22-ycar- old ElWood English but not so good hitter. The versatile Jimmy Dykes, who can play any infield position ac. Crptably, gives the AS distinct edge at third base. Norman McMil- Ian is fast and he has filled a spot that gave the Cubs q lot of early worry but the c&-Yanl;oe is not as seasoned Or as dangerous q hitter as Dykes.
