Plea for Renewal
of Courage.
BIZ tIntted Press

By CHtted Press
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-The hard
est part of the fight for national
recovery is ahead, but the courage
of the American people will bring
complete victory, President Franklin
D. Roosevelt told the closing ses-
sion of the National Conference of
Catholic Charities last night.
The chief executive warned that
"it is for us to redouble our efforts,
to care for those who still must
depend upon relief, to prevent the
disintegration of home life, and to
stand by the victims of the de-
preston until it definitely is past"
Credit for what already has been
accomplished must be given to the
people of the country because of
their warm-hearted response. rather
than to the administrations leader
ship, he said.
Not for a moment have l doubt
ed that we would climb out of the
valley of gloom" Mr.. Roosevelt told
the 5000 conference delegates. AL
ways have I been certain that we
would conquer, because the spirit of
America always springs from faith
faith in the beloved institutions
of our land, and a true and abiding
faith in the divine guidance of
God"

Closest to him, but granted only

Smothered in committee were
proposals for repeal of the national

several other suggestions involving

Possibility remained that some of

G R F F 18th STADIUM,
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-Un-
d er cloudy skies which
drizzled rain in starts, the
New York Giants and the
Washington Senators resumed
world series championship
play here this afternoon.
President Roosevelt arrived at
1888. He was driven directly into the
ball park. Before stepping from his
automobile. he shook hands with
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands
and Clark Griffith, owner of the
Senators. The ball players stood at
attention, holding their caps over
their hearts. The band played Hail
to the Chief" and followed with
The Star -Spangled Banner"
The American flag was run up
back of center field
Despite successive defeats in the
two games played in New York,
the Senators were favored to cap
ture today'S third contest, although
the Giants were heavy betting
favorites on the series as a whole.
Partly because of the unfavorable
weather and probably because of the
unhappy start made by the home
club only relatively small crowd
was on hand as game time neared.
1t seemed likely that about 5000 of
the $4,000 seats would remain
vacant
Fat Fred Fitzsimmons, Giants
right-handed pitcher, and Earl
Whitehill, one Of the Senator'S
aces, warmed up in front of their
dugouts as all of the Washington
players gathered around the Presi-
dent, begging him to favor them
when he threw out the first ball.
Manush Catches Throw
The President made a stout peg
and Heinie Manush leaped high,
making perfect catch. The crowd
cheered wildly.
The un1pires held a conference at
home plate in which Manager Bill
Terry and Joe Cronin joined.
Fitzsimmons and Mancuso for the
Giants and Whitehill and Sewell for
the Senators were officially an
nounced as the batteries.

CITY MARKET
LIKELY TO END
YEAR IN red
Taxpayers viii Be Forced
to Make Up Losses
for Season.
BY AL LYNCH
Times staff Writer

Rent delinquencieS on city mar
ket stands and the costly operation
of Tomlinson hall are cited by per-
sons who have studied the 1888 city
budget for possibilities of effecting
economy.
More than one-third of the 635
market stands are delinquent and
the average annual stand rerdaf -
$50. Safety board members admit
the city market probably will pro-
duce a substantial loss" this year.
Budget observers seeking economy
possibilities point out that the city's
business should be conducted like
the affairs of any we'll managed,
privately operated business where
nonrevenue producing departments
are put on paying basis or abol-
ished
Hall Upheek Is S1O,5OO
With an anticipated $4,000 loss
in stand rentals faced, it is pointed
out that i'll feeling exists in the
market management and that sew
eral thousands of dollars have been
spent in litigation.
In this years budget, $22,321. "a
has been set aside for market house
maintenance. This figure includes
refrigeration, salaries-and all other
expense, but does not include the
upkeep of Tomlinson hall.
Upkeep for the latter is Jumped in
a $37 ,267.40 budget provision for
public buildings, of which $10.5O0
lis believed" by works board en-
ployes to be spent on Tomlinson
hall.
Tomlinson hall produced a total
revenue of $3.50 last year, accord
ing to the city controllers report.
Thus, it is pointed out the city
faces an approximate loss of $13,-
600 in the operation of the market
house and hall.
An additional loss of $11,859. SO
was sustained by the city when the
safety board removed outside stands
at the market on the theory that
they would be moved inside.
Sticker Fees Fewer
This hope was not realized, how
ever, as the stands moved across
the street to a privately owned
market, which is showing a profit.
Study of the city controllers re-
port reveals some data on the city's
loss from miscellaneous receipts and
the thirty nine special licenses
issued by the office.
From the first of the year to Sept.
80, the special license receipts re-
veal $19,90284 loss over last years
same date figure of $151 .441.84.
Comparison of the miscellaneous
receipts figured on the same date
basis shows an $18,792.45 loss from
SIP, ,14O87.
Among the latter losses are 81
083 from traffic sticker fees and
$3,122 loss from abolition of the
traffic tow-in. City court fines and
fees dropped from $5,775 to $1,951.
One of the outstanding losses
shown by the controllers figures is
on taximeter inspection. No re-
ceipts have been collected this year
as against last years figure of
$7.373.35.

Following Aichorn's glum con-

robbed him of the money before
putting him out of the car at

Mother of TUeIUe Dies
Under Wheels of Train
After Marital Quarrel
MangIed Body Is Found by
Son: Coroner Holds Sui
eide Theory.

A home of discord in which there
are twelve children is without wife
and mother today.
The body of Mrs. Mary Patterson,

mangled by train, was found about
this morning by son, William, 20,
on tracks of the Peoria & Eastern
railroad at Twenty-f1rst street and
DreXel avenue.
Police were told that Mrs. Patter-
son and her husband, Niles G.
Patterson, quarreled last night over
juvenile court order against the
husband, violation of which would
have sent him to Jail for six months.
DR.. E. r. Wilson, deputy coroner,
has not yet made finding.
While the family inclines to a
theory of accidental death, DR.. Will
son stated there is evidence that
Mrs. Patterson, while temporarily
mentally deranged. laid down on
the track.
Obtained Court Order
Mrs. Patterson obtained the court
order on complaint that her husband
drank heavily, would absent himself
from home for weeks at a time, and
that while he had earned good
money, it had been of little benefit
to his family. He charged that once
she attempted to attack him with
butcher knife. This she denied,
court records show.
The husband was ordered to give
his weekly pay check to his wife,
and she was to provide him $3.50
weekly for his personal use.
Gene, 16-year-old daughter, arose
early today to replenish fire in a
stove. Her mother was missing. She
called her father and he sent some
OF the older children to seek her.
Walked on Railway
1t was the fate of the son William
to find the mangled body.
The husband expressed a belief
that Mrs. Patterson was killed ac-
cidentally while on her way to the
home of daughter. Mrs. Helen
Neal, 2156 North De Quincy street.
He explained that in going to Mrs.
Meals home the family walked on
either the railroad or tracks of an
interurban line.

Neal, the latter 28, and oldest of the
children, herself the mother of four.
