Contract
ShireS Faces Real Fight to
Regain Berth From
Bud Clancy.
BY BERT DEMBY
United Press staff Corrcsnondenk

CHICAGO, March S6.-Now that
Charles Arthur Shires has agreed to
play baseball with the Chicago
White Sox for $1,000 this year, the
general opinion among baseball fans
seems to be that the Sox have a
bargain.
Charles Arthur, the most publ
cized man in baseball during the
last winter, turned in his contract
Tuesday and today he was on his
way to San Antonio, Tex, TO begin
training.
Despite Comiskey's assertion that
Shires, in his opinion, doesn't have
any great amount of drawing power,
the fans are of the opinion that
Arts color, combined with his ad-
mitted ability at first basing, will
draw fans to the park.
Shires' long absence from the
training camp may cause him to
have to put up a real fight to get
his job back. Bud Clancy has been
doing well at the first basing job,
particularly in his hitting, and he
probably will put up real fight
to hold the job.

Closest Race Since 1922
According to Ruth. the American
League is due for its tightest race
since 1922, when the Yankees beat
the Browns by one game. Six clubs
are stronger, he says, while the
Athletics will be just about what
they were in 1929 and the Senators
will be weaker than they were last
season.
Give the Yankees little pitch
ing and they will overpower the
league" said Ruth. I'VE have the
best club in either league. Our
pitching is bound to be much better

"I have wanted Yankee-Cub
series for some years, and this time

will be at the mercy of the Cubs be-
cause it hasn't developed enough

26.-Babe Ruth believes that the
New York Yankees and Chicago
Cubs will meet in the 1890 world
series. In naming the Yankees for
first place in the American League,
Ruth exceeded the optimism Of
Manager Shawkey, who last week
said the Yanks and Athletics had
an even chance for the pennant.

don't think the Athletics are a great

third place.

Our War Hangover

1t is rather diSqueting to discover, twelve years
after the close of the World war; that the espionage
still is the statute books ready to be invoked
at any time.
1t is particularly dsquieting to this discov-
cry soon after witnessing, In connection with

do to law.
The espionage act was used to send to jail more
than 1900 persons who voiced unpopular opinions
during the war
That act makes it dangerous, in time of war, for
any individual to disagree with what the mass is
thinking; to write letter circular newspaper
article to which any one in the government may
object.
But the law may have possibilities far more
menacing.
If a solicitor in the department OF interior can
interpret the federal water power act in such way
as to eliminate public power provisions which con-
gress thought were essential part of it, what may
not be done with the espionage act2
Suppose it should occur to solicitor that the
present controversy prohibition is in effect

official to halt all u1friendly discussion of the
eighteenth amendment under this Interpretation.
This sounds far fetched. But to the who
wrote the federal water power act and to those who
administered it up the time of Finney the solicit
tor Interpretation seems just as bizarre and i'm
probable.
Many of those who thought the espionage act
necessary in the hysterical days of 1917 deplored
certain parts of 1t in the saner days that followed.
Among these is its author Senator Thomas ]. Walsh
VINO has proposed repeal of those sections under
which free speech prosecutions carried on.
Now while we are comparatively sane it is the
time to safeguard for the future right under the
Constitution to freedom of thought and speech.

Lava

DR. GREGORY thinks that the
~ present mild activity of Mt.
Pelee may be the aftermath of an
earthquake at Cumana, Venezuela,
last January.
In other words, that a readjust-
nent of the earth's crust which
first made itself apparent in the
Venezuela earthquake a year ago,
is now responsible for the volcanic
action.
At one time, when 1t was thought
the interior of the earth was molten,
volcanoes were thought TO be
vents which tapped this molten in
terror of the earth.
The earth's interior Is now known
to be more rigid than steel and 1t is
generally agreed that 1t Is solid and
not molten, though probably at a
very high temperature.
Volcanic phenomena are therefore
believed now to arise in the earth's
crust at a depth of only few miles.
It is believed that movements Of
the earth's crust cause the for
nation of arches of rock, lifting the
pressure on rock beneath the arch,
This removal of pressure causes
the rock, which is at high tenn
perature, to liquify. The result is q
pocket of molten lava.
Further movement of the earth's
crust forces this molten lava up
through cracks, causing volcanic
eruption. This eruption is likely to
be a quiet outpouring of molten
lava unless water has seeped into
the lava pocket.

Supreme Court IdOIatry

The senate fight over the appointment of Charles
Evans Hughes chief justice of the United States
is one of the most significant developments In the
political life of this nation in many years. That is
true altogether apart from the virtues the defects
of Hughes appointment such.
This explains our repeatedly expressed hope that
Hoover appointments would hasten the day when the
Holmes Brandeis minority opinions, placing human
rights above partisan property right would voice the
Will of the court as a whole
Far from meeting that qualification, Hughes
though a sincere and able man, is the outstanding
example of juris who advocates private corporate
interests at the expense of the public interest
To persons still holding to the myth that Justices

nection because his job is merely to pass expert
upon techncateS of the law, the senate opposition
to Hughes may seem unjust and beside the point.
But in fact the court in major eases long since
has become policy-forming body When social and
economic issues are involved the justices tend to
vote their personal opinions. do members of con-
gresS in passing laws The chief difference is that
the court-made law can and does destroy the con-

such court rulings determined by practical
reasons rather than by any strict Interpretation of
the law Thus the court majority has helped to de-
reversed the purpose and meaning of the antitrust
