One of the oldest, most consist cnt fictions surrounding the spring training ac ti vi ies of the masor league baseball camps is the bally- hoo for a recruit who may have the chance to fill the early shoes of Ia seasoned veteran who happens to be holding out for more money or whose career may be moving to- ward the shadier side
 The ambitious youngSter bounds Into camp filled with eagerness and at least some hope. The correspon- dents then light the first match by mailing him as the boy who may be called on to take so-and-so's place this season, inasmuch as so- and-so is a holdout and threaten ing to quit the game if he does not get what he wants from the stony hearted club owner.
 Soon the recruit is showing real promise in practice games, then he bangs out couple of hits in the first exhibition contest. By now the manager himself may be busy telling the scribes that this boy has shown phenomenal development and that he looks about ready to stick and he Cthe manager) is not especially concerned if the hold out regular reports or not.
 Sometimes at this stage, the hold out himself may become a little nervous, especially in such times as these. If an old hand, he will not be alarmed. Perhaps he has fig ured all along to run the string out long enough to miss a good deal of the camp grind.
 Eventually at any rate he swings onto the dotted line. With a sigh of Irelief, the manager who has been 90 busy touting his rookie substi- ute assigns the veteran to his old job and begins worrying about something else.
 No one will be completely aston ished, therefore, if Joe Stripp starts the season at third base for the Brooklyn bod gers and Frankie Frisch again captains the St. Louis Cardinals on opening day April 12, despite the proctracted and wordy disputes they have indulged in.

could go on forever.
Millions of laws govern Americans
and the greatest of the legal mlnos
have not the slightest idea OF most OF
them, nor their import. A favorite
court procedure is to face situation
requiring adjudication, then cast back
as far as necessary for precedent
by which to judge it. In this age, Wnen
the machine and science and Invention
have altered the whole course OF human
life, legal lights frequently cast back
for precedent to the Judgment of men
who never dreamed of a horselesS car
riage. who read by the light Of tallow
candle, bathed in an iron tub, let their
teeth decay as the years passed, and
because it travelled 25 miles an hour
damned the railroad train as device
of the devil for the destruction of man
This must pass. America will throw
off this yoke of archaic habit. The
people, fed up with Main street murders,
idiotic legal subterfuges and outright
corruption, will assert themselves. They
will put a direct question. They will
want and they will get direct answer
Scotland Yard Cited.
You will be entirely safe in the prog
nostication that when they do get it it
will come from one no less than Uncle
Sam himself When the beard of that
gentleman bristles with indignation and
his mighty biceps writhe for a whack
at the desperate who is the national
problem and the international disgrace,
things will happen. Not until then!
Scotland Yard offers a lot America
can learn. Half as efficient as the New
York police. it is twice as effective.
Mussolini offers a ponderable thought
to Americans. Undertaking government
when his country was crime-ridden and
virtually hopeless of deliverance, he has
cleaned it up, polished it, renewed its
public pride He offers it as a sample
of what centralized power can do when
it comes to decapitating a monster
spawned in ignorance, nurtured on the
milk of murder, trained to the brass
knuckle and the blackjack, and fat
tened upon the lethargic and somewhat
hopeless incomprehension of a great
people with too much faith in those
who have usurped the powers Of their
local governing functions.
Call cop! Call cop by all means.
But may God grant that he WILL figura-
lively, wear striped trousers, a spangled
coat, flaring plug hat and a flowing
beard. Then he will be the cop who will
spell deliverance for American business
and home life. He will be Uncle Sam.

During this time the criminal was living
riotous life on the proceeds of his endeavcrs.
That is not unusual but it is ridiculous The
cost is beyond all sense and reason. It is as
criminal as the crime under investigation.
A man shot man in New York He dragged
the body to New Jersey and dumped it there
Then he dashed TO Delaware to hide out They
found him there. Three Investigations were be-
gun to determine what to do with him and
where to do It. Two extraditions were necessary
to bring the killer to trial. Mounting taxes and
infinite delay for offended society!
That is simple case. Take any three States
and counties, and the same would be true All
this abets the criminal He runs to another
State solely to accomplish the very delay that
accrues
While juries mediate what to do shyster law
yers produce habeas corpus, and the criminal
has flown the coop before there is any legal
instrument to hold him. This was all too fire.
