LONDON, Aug. II GN.SO.
The British government today ex-
pected its new Indian communal

Prime Minister j. Ramsay Mac
Donald.
The prime minister pointed out
that the complexity of the de-
mands of the many political and
racial factions in India made it
impossible to comply with all the
demands of each.
Chief points of the new scheme
to provide political balance in
Indian government are:
The "untouchables," against
the demands of Mahatma
Gandhi, are given separate
celebrates in various parts of
India and in others vote with
the HlnuuS.
Women will be given special
representation as being "the
key to India's progress" They
will be given total of Ct seats
In the provincial legislatures.
Settlement of the most stub
born problem of all-concerning

provinces of Bengal and Pun

ting the MoslemS 119 of $50
seats in Bengal. where they rep
resent SIS per cent of the total

WHEN TT IS TO LAUGH

That politics ahead of national welfare with a large wing of the present Congress is shown in the forts to have both political parties adopt identical liquor blanks in their forthcoming platform
 This is the way of the professional politicians and especially those who consider retaining their places re- gardless of their fitness.
 The prohibition question has been secuted by three Republican administrations tabu despite nationwide protest and demand that the people to be given chance to express their views the question: thing they not permitted to do when this perncious measure was ramed down the throat of the nation and while the Amer can army was abroad.
 1t must be credited to the Democrats that they have continually sponsored resubmission Congressional modification of the Vostead act.
 Thus when the Republicans seek to reach an agree ment with their adversaes whereby they steal half their thunder 1t shatters of old time political skulduggery which will fool only immature minds
 The nation desires that this question be faced u- equvocay by of the major parties that the sibility may be definitely fixed
 Possibly nothing has gone farther to undermine faith m political leaders than this rolling for personal gain instead of cear-cut lines drawn upon issues.
 Another tendency to thwart responsibility has been the alleged independence of members of Congress and it's attendant secession from party discipline Thus we have grown into something like the European system of Rights Lefts Cenersts, Socialists Mugwumps which consti- ute the various "bocs"
 The Republicans have had 10 years in which to make decision The Democrats have been on record in SUD- port of resubmssion or modification from the start
 Any effort to split the question in half should be re- sented.

at Promoter Joe Turner's wreSt-

Swede is to tackle Frank Bruno

an honest-to-goodness wrestler
who has turned professional for

The top bout will involve Dick

with the latter striving to regain
many admirers who deserted him

Annual Award
The award, an annual affair of
many years standing, was for
merly not without intrinsic value.
Today, it's reward is much more
artistic, having a great deal to
do with honor and prestige and
rugged, homely merit. Once,
however, the leagues permitted
costly motor cars to be given the
successful athlete, the donors
being men of high ideals who did
not ask that the name of the car
be used in connection with the
gift. They practically insisted on
it. This was before the Lajoie-
Corriden episode, of remote mem
Ory.
Maybe he liked Lajoie. Maybe
he didn't like Cobb. Maybe it
was neither. Anyhow, Lajoie got
something like eight hits in the
last double header of the year,
the majority of which we're buntS
that Corriden couldn't handle.
The car racket tried to recover
from that one but never quite
made it.
Medal to Winner
Later, it was the custom of the
leagues to present each winning
player with $1,000 in cash. But
as the leagues were already down
on white paper to present these
players with sums, ranging from
$4,000 to $4,000 in cash, they
came to feel that this was not
strictly necessary. although how
they had ever come to feel other
wise one never knew.

20 more than Mr.. Lefty" O'Doul,

Mr.. O'Doul led both leagues in
hitting, drove in his share of runs
and caught his share of flies, but
otherwise was of no value what
ever and naturally enough the
committee kept this in mind in
arriving at its choice.
Six First Votes

and two seconds; Warneke, two
