THAT Brownsville Is ready and
anxious for baseball once more
could readily be seen with a glance
at the American legion diamond
yesterday. Suddenly seizing the
bull by the horns, Spitz Clark IS
sued a pop call for players Tuesday.
In spite Of the short notice, fifteen
or twenty performers were on the
spot whipping the old apple around
shortly after 5 p. m. Veterans and
youngsters sprinkled the diamond
when hitting practice got under
way. II was truly an encouraging
sight, in view of the doleful pre-
dictions that Brownsville would
not have an entry in the Valley
amateur league.
MIG JOHNSON and Clark took
the squad under their wings and
soon rounded 1t out into the sem
blance OF q ball club. They lined
up a fast fielding infield and got
In an hour or so OF hitting prac-
tice. The second practice will get
under way at 5 p. m. today.
WE want al Of the old timers
and youngsters to come out" Clark
said. These other hustling Valley
cities have lined up strong az
gregations and we are going TO
need all the available talent. I've
noticed a lot Of paunches around
town that need reducing. Nothing
better than chasing fly balls to
regain that graceful waistline," the
cotton-topped one said.
NO ball club would be complete
without Breezy" williams. The
talkative one dismounted his laund-
dry hack long enough Wednesday
TO show that he still knew how TO

HEAD OF FARMERS
union SAYS JOBS
ARE NATIONS NEED
Opposes More Farm Relief as
Tending to Put Farmer
Farther in Hole

st. Paul, Nov. 22.-tF)-Jobs, not
farm relief, in the opinion of John A.
Simpson, Oklahoma City, Okla, is
what this country needs.
The new president Of the National
Farmers union expressed this belief
following his election at the conven-
ton just closed, but had nothing to
say" about the federal farm board.
"The country doesn't need farm
relief-it needs labor" he said. More
relief to the farmer is going to put
him farther in the hole. Helping the
farmer does wors than nothing when
no can buy the farmers products
so that he can help himself.
There is no surplus of anything,
and the only way to get farm relief
Is to get a job for every man In the
country. When people are working
they will buy flour and cotton and
automobiles. Feeding wheat to the
hogs Is not helping hungry humanity.
AS soon as the government steps In
and finances a labor revival we viii
learn that the surplus talk was all
bunk"
He advocates federal loans to
states for improvement projects, thus
furnishing q source Of Jobs. adding:
What they need In Washington is a
man like General Coxey. I say give
every man in the country a Job; then
see how quickly the farmer gets on
his feet. That is what the government
should do"

FURTHER TRIAL FOR
FARM BOARD ASKED
Senators Capper and Norris
Agree It Should Have
Fair Chance

Washington, Nov. 22.-P)-Further
trial for the 18 months old farm
board was advocated today by two
senators from the farm belt-Capper
of Kansas and Norris Of Nebraska,
beth Republicans-aS the senate ag-
riculture committee prepared to hear
farm leaders here on Monday.
Views expressed at discussions be-
fore the committee next week are ex-
pected to have considerable bearing
on whether enactment of the expert
debenture or the equalization fee is
to be sought at the approaching ses-
sion.
While Senators Borah Of Idaho
and Brookhart of Iowa, Republicans,
have condemned the farm board as a
failure and are prepared to seek
adoption of the export debenture,
little prospect for enactment at the
short session Is seen in view of the
opposition of the house.
Senator Norris, who has been a
leader in the fight for the export de-
benture, asserted the farm board and
the new marketing act ought to have
a fair chance"
Senator Capper believed the board
had made some mistakes but he said
Kansas farmers generally commended
it for going into the wheat market to
combat further price declines.
