SHOUSE SCORES
2-YEAR RECORD
Of HOOVER
Lack Of Leadership Blamed
For Many Misfortunes That
Have Resulted From Slump

LOS ANGELES, April IA USO
President Hoover was pictured as
q man who failed to measure
UP to the standards of the Presi-
dency. in an address delivered to-
night by Jouett Shouse, chair.
man of the Democratic national
executive committee.
Mr.. ShouSe is now on a speak
ing tour of the West, firing the
opening guns of the 1882 cam
paign. He spoke at the jefferson
Day dinner of the State Demo
cratic committee.
Criticizes Tariff Bill
Reviewing the political events
Of the last two years, Mr.. Shouse
said the Federal Government has
simply drifted" in the face of
great problems due to President
Hoover'S lack of leadership"
He criticized the Chief Execu-
tive for signing the Smoot-Hawley
tariff bill, for failing to foreSee
the business depression and for
failing to apply remedies to re-
store prosperity. He said the
"Pollyanna statement" issued by
Mr.. Hoover undoubtedly had
caused many losers in the stock
market to try another filler" in
the hope of recovering. Mr..
Shouse said:
Gwen after two years you
; will find people in different
parts of the country arguing
from exactly opposite view
points what the President really
thinks about the tariff, the
farm problem, prohibition, pub
lie utility control and, in fact,
every other major issue that is
engrOssing the attention of the
nation.
He Excuses" Hoover
Perhaps all this has not
been the sole fault of your
. distinguished fellOw-C Californian.
No man can be blamed for not
having been born or not hav-
ing developed into a major
statesman.
Mr.. ShouSe said the only CT
structive thing done by the Fed
eral Government to solve the un.
employment problems was the
enactment of the bills sponsored
by Senator Robert F. Wagner Cd
Of New York.

Labor Speaks.
Seattle Times ]

The action of the Executive Council of the Am erican Federation of Labor in giving formal ap proval to the proposal that the United States join the World Court shows the irresistible trend of public opinion. Notwithstanding the clamor of jingo newspapers and of self-seekng politicians desirous of receiving the publicity which that branch of the press give them sentiment supporting the great tribunal is increasing The isolatonists and the irreconcilables will not cease their din, but their number dwindles. The American Federation speaks with greater authority for labor than the pretended leaders in Congress and the noser sec ton of the press speak for the general public
 Americas adherence to the Permanent Court of International Justice hangs upon the acceptance of reservation now before the Senate. Every American right has been safeguarded, every con- tingency provided for; yet handful of Senators, encouraged and abetted by group of newspapers, refuses to act or to permit majority to accept the protocol. Various Subterfuges have been em ployed to postpone vote, but the most effective has been the pressure of other business When matters of nearer consequence are in the balance, the majority has not deemed it expedent to invite a filibuster or to engage in protracted debate
 By giving support both morally and financially to the World Court America could advance the cause of permanent peace immeasurably. We have entered into treaties to eliminate war as a means of settling international disputes and it remains to turn to the only method yet devised of com posing grave differences according to law and jus tice If America should join the Court, the world could settle down to the pursuits of peace and re- gain its prosperity
 The American Federation of Labor has set a worthy example. Perhaps it will find way to dis cipline the politicians who proclaming the foolish doctrine of national isolation. Such de- veopment would help America.

A Frontier Passes.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

The Olympic Loop Highway, opened this week. is perhaps in all the world the first highly improved primary road which completely encircles a noun tain range
 Strictly speaking, the Olympic Mountains do not make up range" there being no axal arrange ment disposal of the peaks and ridges in a rod" definite line This vast mountain tumble would be more accurately described by the term "massif."
 Rising from the Pacific Ocean the West the Strait of Juan de Fuca on the North, Puget Sound between Olympia and Grays Harbor the South, the mountains stair-step upward to Mount Olympus, roughly in central position where the "massif' reaches an elevation of nearly 5000 feet.
 The mass is cut by deep valleys, streams flow ing southward, westward, northward and east ward.
 The area includes some of the least-known sec tions of the United States The most northwesterly part of the Union it s apparently, the Hast frontier"
 It would not be quite accurate to say it is un- explored, yet in great portions of the peninsula the touch of the explorer has been light indeed.
 And Knowledge of it only runs to its general typographical features and the extent of its tre- mendously valuable forest covering Its mineral resources including probable occurrence of petrol reason to believe they are there and capable of being developed to the point where they will con- tribute greatly to the States wealth
 The new $l0000000 highways first appeal will be to the tourist, to whom it offers access to one of the most scenic regions in America. Later the road will serve to open up storehouse of wealth heretofore largely locked up by lack of trans portation.

LODGE SEES GAIN
 IN EYES BLINDED
 TO SPIRIT WORLD

WESTON SUPER MARE, Eng iand, Sept. 14-Human eyes are mercifully closed to the realities of the spirit world, Sir Oliver Lodge told the National Free Church Council, else people should be overwhelmed.
 We would have no time for our business or our daily work" the veteran spiritualist said, were we not encased with matter and our eyes closed"
 Sir Oliver said science was grad ually beginning to recognize the existence, not of a spiritual world, necessarily. but of a universe which has no appeal to the senses and was not material.
 II hold that life exists in space and utilized matter for its own purposes and operates matter, So that the material body does cer- tain things. Matter does nothing except to. go where you put it.. It lis quite enough-I go further it has no energy.
 If you smash a loud speaker you destroy the machine, but not the ether waves. I am loud speaker at the moment, and if you bring hatchet to my head you destroy my mechanism, but that is all
 Life and the mind do not stop when the machine has stopped. I do not suppose it began when the machine began. Every real thing is perpetual" he said.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-It looks like the Cards and the Athletics again this year
 And when Gabby Street marches the Red Birds out late in Septem- Der to start the worlds series with the cha m p ionship Philadelphia club, the chances are good they'll have to face a pitcher with the greatest winning percentage of all time.
 That hurler is none other than Robert Moses Grove, fireball south- paw. But whether Lefty manages to better the winning percentage record of 872 set by Smoky Joe' Wood in 1912 with the Boston Red Sox, it is certain he'll be conceded the greatest hurler of the year.
 If for no other reason, Groves 16 straight victories will take care of that. Before this great streak was ended at St. Louis, when Lefty dropped tough To decision, he'd lost only two games, and both of those by the narrowest sort of mar gins
 Winning Streak
 Early in the season Grove lost a 2-l game to the Washington Sena- tors, and after winning seven straight he was credited with losing a game to Chicago when he went in as relief hurler. But for that game Groves winning streak would have been g, exactly four better than the modern record for the majors set by Rube Vanguard with the New York Giants in 1912.
 Groves winning percentage was 893 with 25 games won and three lost, after young Dick Coffman of the Browns beat him by shutting out the Athletics for the first time this season.
 Woods record of .872 was turned in on the basis of 34 games won and five lost, and while the chances are practically non-existent that the gangling lefthandler will reach that victory total, he does hope to win 30 games. No lefthander has ever achieved that in the ma jors.
 Has Control
 Groves development in recent years as the leading pitcher of the majors, is generally attributed by the ball players to a better con- trol of his fast ball. Connie Mack, however, insists that Groves curve is almost equally as effective.
 This campaign is Groves 18th in baseball. He pitched a few games with Martinsburg in the Blue Ridge League in 1920, and was picked up by the Baltimore Orioles. He was with the Inter- national League club for five sea-

sons and went to the Athletics in 1925.
 Street and Mack not unnaturally are at odds as to Groves possible worth in the worlds series. The "Old Sarge" ventures that Grove will be burned out by the time of the worlds series from trying to win 30 games this year.
 Mack, on the other hand, claims Lefty thrives on work Grove, he says, has an easy sidearm delivery that takes little out of him.

PICKED SARAzEN
To WIN EVENT
By LEO DEGEL

Aqua CALIENTE, Baja Cali
fornia, Mexico, Jan. 6.-Gene Sar-
azen, who won the $4,000 first
money in the first $25, 600 Aqua
Caliente open golf tournament Of
1880, will be back after another
wheelbarrow of silver dollars in
the second event, which will be
held here January 13, IA, is and
16. He did not have to qualify,
being exempt through winning a
prize in 1880, and also as a leader
in national competition during
the year.
I picked Sarazen to win his
first tournament, and helped him
train for the event. It was the
Southern open in 1922. I had
watched his game for some time,
and that year he was my favorite
for the tournament which was
to be held over my home course,
the New Orleans Golf Club.
My choice was q big laugh
to most of the players and
critics. But I had seen Sarazen
play in Texas, that season,
and had watched his game
more or less over a period Of
two or three years.
I kept Gene away from the
rest Of the players both before
and during the tournament, to be
sure that he would get a good
rest each night. And he proved
my judgment was correct, going
into the lead from the start, to
win, against Jock Hutchinson,
Jim Barnes, Cyril Walker and
other leaders in golf at that time.
