shanghaiing men to work on the oyster yes
sells of Chesapeake and Delaware Bays, Is max
ing port for the last time
The 72-year-old captain, one OF the most
highly regarded men in the Bureau OF Naviga-
ton, is being relieved Of the command OF the
Kilkenny, and retired under the recently
enacted economy BILL after 40 years OF service
As skipper of the TarrAgon, first ship OF the
Patrol Fleet Capt. Mccoy in 1912 carried on
almost single handed a war against the WIDE
spread practice Of shanghaiing, and long before
his retirement saw the abuse corrected and the
oyster and fishing fleets operating peacefully
and effciently in this important industry.
His fight against shanghaiing, however, was
only an episode Of q long career in the per
fcrmance Of the multifarious duties OF the Navi-
cation Patrol. The Bureau Of Navigation Is
generally responsible for the enforcement Of
laws and regulations applying to the American
merchant marine and to American merchant
seamen and many OF these duties fall upon the
masters of vessels IN the Patrol Fleet.

very distinguished and beautiful
woman, wife of a famous European
statesman who now is dead, was told,
before she met him, to be nice to him.
'Tt is possible you may find him awk-
ward" said her diplomatic husband
"He is not a ladies' man, and he is
very reserved, He is unmarried, doesn't
dance and reads Greek history for
amusement He is an EngliShman who
doesn't keep a dog and has never shot
anything in his life. You perceive he
is not easy but he is Sympathetically
disposed toward us and good fellow
underneath, so be a good girl and do
your best
Good heavens! You set me a task
grumbled his wife How one is COM
PEELED to suffer for ones country"
At the reception the thick-set English
man, in the evening clothes of scholar
rather than a man of fashion, bowed
stifiy over the hand of the lovely, smiling
woman and family blushed. He would
have escaped after formal polite word
or two, but she held him. Five min
utes later her husband, looking anxiously
across. was relieved to see the two still
chatting. Ten minutes later his eyes
sought his wife again. and 10! she was
still with the Englishman, chatting. Half
an hour later he found her sitting on
divan with the Englishman beside her,
talking and laughing and was aston
ished.
Afterward: What did you do to our
friend?" he inquired. You are an en-
chantreSS. You make me feel jealous"
She smiled wisely "I asked him to
explain the Hungarian reconstruction.
And then we got to other things"

He talks and you see the machine work

This little story from Geneva, an in
exhaustible mine of stories about Its per-
sonalities, explains to some extent how
this intellectual who is also student
of literature and a man OF action, can
sit down and write a book which imn1e-
diately becomes a best seller and the
most talked-of work of its type in
score of countries 1t is not because ne
has been the most active man on the
League that his book, Recovery" Is read.
It is because it is written in such
yay that it arrests and illuminates.
His own reading is liberal, 1t extends
from Greek literature to detective
stories, and includes poetry. He reads
detective stories because he is not sum
GENTLY socially inclined to distract his
analytical mind in company; at bridge,
for example But he finds it increasingly
difficult to discover detective story writ
ers clever enough to keep him guessing
His mind is so analytical that he hits
on the solution too early, and then the
book is wasted and his nocturnal pleas
ure spoiled.

derlay this action, and saw war spread
ing outward from the Balkans unless
prompt action were taken. He tele-
phoned Sir Eric Drummond, the secre-
tary general. They got on the telephone
to the Greek minister at Berne, and said
words to him which that diplomat imme-
diately relayed, with warning and advice,
to his fellows in Athens, who, on second
thoughts, came across with communi-
cation which was telephoned to the two
League men. Drummond then tele-
phoned BRAND, who was functioning as
president of the League Council. BRAND
and the council machine thereupon
stopped a war.
CALTER has time for very little except
work. He lived by the lake in
Geneva, but never hshed. He belonged
to the golf club, but had no time to
play. He dimes out-a civil servant and
League official has to; it is part Of the
days job-but he never goes out merely
for pleasure.
He has never had leisure to travel,
except on business and he is inseparable
from his shabby old document case,
stuffed full of papers always Appear
ances, also. he has practically no time
for. Salter and Viscount Cecil have
never had third competitor intruding
upon their mutual rivalry for the title
of the worst dressed man at Geneva.
When his seven-year contract with
the League expired in the Summer of
1880 he rendered his resignation. He
could have renewed his contract, was
pressed to do so, but declined. He had
been very disappointed that the world
economic conference he had worked for
and organized had not produced any
action in the political realm.
Before he returned home, however, he
went to India on the invitation of the
government to advise upon the economic
situation, and later, on the invitation OF
the Chinese government, to China. Then
he started for home and holiday.
But there was little holiday for him.
He wanted to write a book about the
world crisis, and he wrote it. The Brit
ish government then made him the in
dependent chairman of the Joint Rail
and Road Commission, set up to investi-
gate the rival claims of the two trans
port systems.
1t is an important job, but perhaps not
as much as he had expected. But great
as his reputation is, and powerful as are
his friends-he stands close to Ramsay
MacDonald-he is a Liberal, a free
trader an internationalist; and in an
island empire gone protectioniSt and re-
viving all its old imperial slogans, and
besides, dominated by the Tory element
in a national government, he is rather
too much out of the fashion of the hour
just now for a job equal to his powers
and deserts.
The world economic conference that
Salter has campaigned for-the confer
ence of executives, not expertS-iS sched-
uled for the Autumn. The interdepend-
ence of the modern world has swiftly
become one Of the accepted facts among
all people who want reconstruction OF
our civilization and not its breakdown
And the future seems to play Salter's
way. He is not the man to throw away
his birthright for mess of political pot
tage. In world moving from depression
to recovery he will assuredly find his
place.

The international League met to-
day to consider a similar move. ard
1t was indicated that the club own
ers would adopt virtually the same
plan. After the champions of the
TWO leagues, American Association
and international League, are de-
termined, they will meet in the Git
Tie world series as in former years.

future of the Western League. but
said that the league would function
again next year. He said the re-
placement Of the Tulsa and Okla

until after the minor league meet
ing.

The three Glass A leagues
Texas, Southern and Western-have
adopted a monthly salary limit of
$4,25O per club, exclusive of the

or more.
The most important meeting of
the National Association was sched-
uled today, with the report of the

before the general assembly for the

Demmary, Lanky Center,
Only Newcomer in Blue
Lineup Friday.

Buffers Bulldogs wound up prac-
tice today for Fridays opening tus-
sic of the season with Indiana State
at Fairview fieldhouse.
Although Tony Hinkle, popular
blue mentor, has not decided def
nitely his starting lineup, five vete-
rams probably will open action.
With Gene Demmary, 6-foot 7
inch pastimer who was kept out of
action last year by injuries, avail
able for pivot duties, Searle Profit
probably will be shifted from CEN
ter to- back guard, to fill the vacancy
caused by Tackett's graduation.
Bert Davis and Lyle Withrow are
likely forward starters, with Ray
Miller at floor guard. Miller may
be used at forward, and Chickedantz
or Reissner at guard.
Indiana State also boasts a strong
veteran lineup.
That Buffers reduced basketball
prices for the home season are
meeting with public approval is
evinced by the many favorable re-
ports received by the university
since announcing the reduction.
Adults will be admitted for 40 cents
and children under II for Csc at the
thirteen home games on the Bulldog
card.
Officials at the Fairview institu-
ton predict a record attendance
this season due to the reduced
prices and the caliber of the Bull
dog schedule. Butler will meet all
members of the Missouri Valley CON
ference in the fieldhouse besides
such outstanding squads as Notre
Dame, University of Missouri, Pitts
burgh and Western State Teachers.
Entertainment in addition to
basketball is being arranged for the
fans. Members of B~luesters and the
Growers, student pep organizations,
will be in charge of a series of
stunts at the half.
