R|TCHIE FIGHTS
PROHIBITION

Of the three major issues
before the country-unemploy.
ment, prohibition and taxation
unemployment is the most dis
astrous IN it's effects and seem
ingly the most battling in its
cure" according to Gov. Albert
C. Ritchie of MARYLAND.
Speaking last night over a
National Brcadcasting Company
network. the Marylander renewed
his contention that elimination
of prohibition would decrease
both unemployment and taxation,
and he further suggested that
the six-hour work day. and the
five-day week may have to be
adopted universally to spread
employment and lessen present
tension.
Declaring against anything like
a Government dole, and insisting
that relief can come only
through work" Richie laid much
blame for delay in retrenchment
on the shoulders of the PreSi-
dents Cabinet, adding;
"If given the opportunity, 1
would pledge a Cabinet whose
members would realize that the
expenses of their departments
are not SacrOSanCt."

Elks Face Crucial Game of Series with One-Man
 Pitching Staff

The sixth and possibly the decid- ing game of the Little Worlds Series to be played this evening at City Park finds the Elks with their backs to the wall, a pitching staff of just one man left and he has already worked in three of the five games played.
 Ken Junge, nicknamed the iron man." will indeed be iron if he can slave off the Vets rush toward the City League Championship to- night. Koski, of course, may be used, depending on his condition before the game Erskine, who coasted along last night behind the rolling barrage of his teammates hits. will hurl again for the Le- zion.
 Last night, when Manning was rudely blasted from the box, the fans called loudly for Junge but Manager Andrews, with his eyes on tonight's crucial game, kept him out. Even iron has its limits of tensile strain. Junge pitched last Friday. He lost, but through no fault of his own as he held the Vets to three stingy hits. He came back Monday to win nine to six victory. Tuesday, after Koski had pitched the first frame, he went in and kept the Vets to six hits and two runs. If he can stop the Vets tonight he will have set a record for the local baseball classic.

SOVIET TRADE
 LOST TO U. s.

Moscow, (UP) -- The United
 States fell from the head of the list
 to second place in 1881 as source of Soviet imports. the first official analysis of foreign trade by coun- tries disclosed.
 The outstanding fact is the
 sharp rise of Soviet purchases in Germany, with a total of 410.645,- 900 rubles in 1891 as against b0,S28.000 rubles in 1880. The corresponding figure for America
 are 229.915,000 rubles in 1881 and 1 264,393,000 rubles in 1930.
 Soviet exports to the United
 States, always extremely small, declined by nearly half last year. Whereas in 1890 America bought
 40,932,OO0 rubles worth of Soviet goods in 1891 is bought only 22,- | 69O, 900 rubles worth.
 This decline is regarded as par ticulariy significant by officials here. It is their contention that trade must be roughly reciprocal and that American hopes for a larger slice of Soviet imports must not overlook the necessity for fla yorable conditions for Soviet ex- ports. Z.
 Germany, however, has not been much more generous in this
 respect. Despite it's enormous ex- pansion of sales to Russia, it's pur- chases here for the year fell off from 05,702,000 rubles in 1891 to 129,339,O00 rubles last year. .. Totals for Great Britain were:
 exports to the Soviet Union, 73,-
 3s1, ,OOO rubles compared with 80,- 129,0OO the year before; imports from the Soviet Union, 260,071.000
 rubles against 27s,909.000 rubles in 1880. ,

 What l wish to emphasize is that this is a world catastrophe. !"
 T regret that in this, there is no France, no Italy, no Germany, no United States, no Great Britain apart from the rest of the na- tions," Macdonald said. None of us can stay out of the work of restoration and reconstruction be- cause none of us can stay out of the miseries which are grathering about us.
 To-day we have met to consider one part of the cause of our dis tress, the financial inheritance of the war. and we must come to agreement"
 Referring to the part of the Uni ted States in world affairs, Mac Donald said:
