COUNCIL GOES
INTO ACTION
THIS WEEK
Coordination and Greater e.
fectivenesS Is Aim of
Inclusive Body

President Roosevelt began in
earnest today the work Of weaving
into a single, Cohesive machine,
the myriad parts Of his giant
national recovery movement,
through the agency Of the re-
Gently formed National Emergency
Council.
Under this body, which was to
swing into real action this week,
there was begun process designed
to simplify and make more ef-
fective the workings of the Gov
err1ment, and to eliminate duplica-
ton Of effort.
Frank Walker, who headed Mr..
Roosevelt's executive council or
"super-cabinet," as executive Sec
retary, was named temporary
director of the new council. He
has been busy with organization
work since the President an
nounced establishment of the
unit December 6, and was ready
to call the body together for it's
first official meeting within the
next few days.
Coordination Aim
The first duty of the council
will be one of coordination.
Walker explained this work in
detail.
To illustrate, he said:
In a town of 5000 there will
be under the Administrations
present satup, an agency hand
ling applications for agricul-
tural loans; another agency will
be handling relief work; still
another will be concerned with
the local working Of the NRA.
"The emergency council will
combine all Of these services
into one Office-a single agency
Of the emergency council hand
ling all the work. Then, when
there are disputes locally over
the jurisdiction Of the AAA,
or the NRA in some matter, it
will all come into the same
bureau. In this manner, these
little local disputes can be set
tied without all the red tape
now necessary"
Is Inclusive Body
Organization Of the emergency
council was built up with just
this function in view. To the
end desired, its personnel was
picked as representative of all
the departments having local
agencies throughout the nation.
Included in the council were the
Secretaries of Agriculture, Com
merce and Labor, the admins
traitors for the Agricultural Ad-
justment Administration and for
national recovery, the Emergency
Relief administrator, chairman Of
the Home Owners Loan Corpora.
ton, the governor Of the Farm
Credit Administration, and a
representative Of the NRA Con-
Sumers Council.
The complete setup includes,
in addition to the council here,
State directors and local councils
in each of the more than 5000
counties in the country.

Texas, Overton asserted. He said:

John Holland, Investigator for

added:

Cardinals and Gabby HartHett OF
the Cubs were the popular Nation
al League choices in this sum-
mer's newspaper polls. Virgil
Davis of the Phillies in a real
slugger. 0ffhand we would select
Dickey and Wilson.
No 1888 pitching staff could-be
formed on an all-star basis without
the talented ileft-hander of the
Giants, Carl Hubbell, the new
shutout king. Dizzy Dean of the
Cardinals also would be handy to
have around. He is now probably
the best right-hander in either
league.
Hubbell, Dean and Grove would
be enough, so far as we are con-
eerned, leaving a fourth. if neces-
sary, to be picked from Lon War
neke, Tex Carleton. Hal Schu-.
macher, Lefty Gomez, AL Crowder
or Wesley Terrell.
Terrell has not been as effective
this year as his club-mate, Oral
Hildebrand. and Gomez is nowhere
near his 1882 record. Schumacher
has developed sensationally.

SCORE OF s.5
(By JovE)


The Lopez Funeral Home boys
had a fine time in trouncing Ell
Fenix last night. The score was
8 to 5.
Gilmore (Andy) Park started
on the mound for the dance boys
but couldn't last. He was relieved
by Sterling after he had yielded
five hits which Melted the visit
ing club eight runs.
Ell Fenix played rather loose
game on the field. Lopez was no
exception.
Clarence (Smiling Willie) Gates
hurled his third victory of the sea-
son. The youngster pitched steady
ball for seven innings. In the
eighth he apparently weakened
and the boys from the social club
scored four runs on three safe hits
and couple of errors combined.
Gates struck out 10 men.
The Lopez boys were booed by
the fans in the fourth inning
when the team complained of a
decision made by Chief Umpire
Head, which gave the losing club
its first score of the game.
