One is never quite sure
whether Senator Fess is serious
or facetious-which may be for
tunate for the Senator, since
to look upon some Of his seri-
Gus utterances as other than
facetious would reflect upon his
judgment.
Thus, when he invites the
nation to stand at salute before
the Presidents genius for
Leadership" in this, the most
serious depression in American
history. it is possible to smile,
a bit sourly perhaps, upon what
appears to be a piece of irony.
Were we to take him seriously
we could not hear such absurdi-
ties with patience.
President Seems to !
Refuse to Lead
The Presidents genius as a
leader seems to lie in his
refusal to lead. The only illus
tration of the leadership the
Senator offers is this:
He claims the President got
the employers to promise not
to reduce wages, and the work
ers to agree not to strike.
OF course wages have been
reduced, and the head of the
American Federation of Labor
is serving notice now that
strikes will follow if the reduc-
ton of wages goes on. But
why go into that? The Presi-
dent "leads."
It seems a pity that the
Senator should have overlooked
an even more brilliant illustra-
ton of the Presidents leader
ship.

the leaders Of industry to enter

This increase does not specify

Asked to Disregard
SUSPENSION of Increase
The Interstate Commerce
Commission is asked to disre-
gard the usual 90-day suspen-
sion of the increase made.
This increase is expected to
add $400. 100000 a year to the
revenue of the roads. Naturally
this must mean an increase of
$40O 100000 in the cost Of the
freight carried to the consumer.
And this may very reasonably
be expected to further reduce
the amount of freight carried,
since the consumer is as much
hit by the depression as the
roads.

Baseball Will Go on Parade
Again in Chicago Next Week

as one of the most revolutionary
in minor league history. The forma-
ton of the "big five" committee to
direct the minors for one year is
considered one of the outstanding
constructive measures ever at
tempted.
At the end of it's one-year term
the committee will suggest ways and
means for making baseball more at
tractive to the public and perhaps
nominate an outstanding individual
to assume permanent control of the
minor league organization. The re-
birth of the Central League, one of
the oldest leagues, increased the
minors to seventeen.
Though the West Baden conven-
ton was strictly a minor league af-
fair, the majors stole part of the
show. The Chicago White Sox, last
in the American League, were first
in the trading mart with three
deals. President Lou ComiSkey and
Manager Lew FonSeca have other
transactions pending, which may be
completed at Chicago next week, one
with the Yankees and the other
with the Browns.
The general slashing of players
salaries does not appear to be con-
fined to the minors, as major league
magnateS, who were here indicated
they would lower wages for next
season.

Big Ten to

Two Big Relay CarnivaIs
Are Abandoned; Basket
Cards Increased.
ByUnitcd Press

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Strict limita-
ton of all minor sports, never con-
sidered profitable and now finan-
cially impractical because of de-
creased football revenues, was ia
vored by the Western Conference
today after it had abandoned two
large track relays.
Conference coaches athletic di-
rectors and faculty representatives
voted Friday to discontinue, for 1892
at least, the Illinois and Ohio State
relays.
Limited schedules for conference
baseball, dual track cross country.
wrestling, tennis, golf, swimming
and gymnastics we're approved.
Cage Card Increased
Basketball was the only sport in
which an increase in the number
of games was permitted. Big Ten
schools were allowed six practice
games in addition to the regular
twelve conference games.
Schools were expected to add an
other preliminary game to their
schedules. Five were permitted for
merly.
Major John L. Griffith, Big Ten
commissioner, announced both ILL
nois and Ohio relays probably would
be resumed in 1888. The former.
outstanding national indoor track
meet, has been an annual feature
at Champaign. for fifteen years.
Reduced football receipts. due to
the depression, were blamed direct
ly for the minor sports retrench-
ment.
Baseball Bills Cut
The baseball schedule was re-
duced from twelve to ten games by
action of the conference Friday.
Dual track meets were limited to
three indoor and three outdoor.
cross country runs to two, wrestling.
tennis and golf to four each and
swimming and gymnastic meets to
two.
The conference decided the in
door track championships would be
held in the new 100000 Chicago
