BY JOE WILLIAMS
Times SpeciaI Shorts Writer

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The
L = mayor of GreenvilIe, N. c., has
sent wire to Judge Bushyhair
Lands petitioning the reinstatement
in organized baseball of Shoeless
Joe Jackson.
Sport page Immortality being what
it is, I suppose there are a lot of
folks around today who never heard
Of ShOeless Joe, or what he did
that should move the mayor of his
town to go to bat for him.
Well, he was just about the great
est natural hitter baseball ever saw,
as we'll as one of the most instinct
i've players, and if he hadn't got
himself all damned up in the 1919
world series fraud, the customers
would still be talking about his eX-
ploitS on the field.
There wasn't anything Shoeless
Joe couldn't do except think, and
to the CONSERVATION Of some Of the
more erudite critics of the game,
who insisted baseball was an in
volved science, he demonstrated
that it was possible to be both an
illiterate and a star at the same
time.
Shoeless Joe never had any book
learning, and even when he had
advanced far enough in his profess
sion to become a major league play
er he could not read or write All
he could do was hit, run the bases
and pull down flies. Sngularly,
this seemed sufficient.
THE first year he played regular
Il ly in the American League he
forced Ty Cobb to bat over 400 in
order to hold his place as the lead
ing hitter in the circuit. Cobb had
never hit 400 before. Shoeless Joe
fired a .408 at him and the Georgian
trumped it with APO. The
Georgian was like that, and because
he was Shoeless Joe never was able
to lead the league in hitting. though
he managed TO do about everything
else.
He was an established star with
the ClevelandS when I first caught
up with him. He rated a drawing
room on the out-of-town trips. Us
ually he carried a parrot with him
on these trips. The parrot had
mastered a few salty dugout phrases.
One of these was: You're louzy,

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 2, CAPT. - A public rebuke for Governor Rolph, to which Hoover's name was signed, intensified the cross fire of criticism over the San Jose lynching of Hart's slayers. The statement was issued through the chairman of the Chamber of Com merce and declared that every spirit of government was violated by the state and in the eyes of the world will be considered brutal outburst of primitive lust for ven- geance.

Thurmond and John Holmes, con fessed slayers of Brooke L. Hart, down the street to St. James Park. Both were badly beaten and almost unconscious. They were stripped naked. Thurmond was unconscious when hanged. Holmes resisted and managed to throw the rope of h.s neck, but 1t was forced back after he was severely kicked.
 The hanging was witnessed by a ieering crowd of six thousand The sheriff, William Emig, was taken unconscious to the hospital He was beaten about the head by the lynchers. They first took the wrong men from the jail, the in terior of which was reduced to wreckage.

Labor Day

The real significance of Labor Day should be apparent this year if ever. In view of the fact that it falls SO close to the official opening of the NRA makes it doubly sig nifeant When created Labor Day was day set aside for rest from all sorts of endeavor. Today like most of our holidays it is hardly more than an occasion for most of us to en- joy an outing or to prolong our summer vacation bit longer. But in doing this we are probably in some degree observing real Labor Day.
 While we may never eliminate from our calendar Labor Day, unless perehanee we adopt a new calendar. in this changing era we may. come to regard the date-the first Monday in September-not as Labor Day but as NRA Day or something that spells economic emancipation. We are entering upon an untried period of life. It is a test period to be sure, but such a test that fail- ure spells doom for all of us. This year may we hope that Labor Day will spell not simply freedom from our daily work, but the beginning of a relation between employ. CT and employe that insutes more work, more pay, and more sales.
 The gigantic machinery of the NRA has been spread over the land. Its eoss and gears have nneshed nicely and initial trials show all operating efficiently. May we on this Labor Day trust that there will be no dis ruptions of this eAortless and eeaseless push and pull motion which has been given to business by artificial respiration. Labor no longer has come to mean drudsery nor slavery to the task at hand. It spells pro. duetion by both brain and hand. We'll still have our Labor Days ten years hence. but it will be more than merely holiday to us then. we hope. This year should make it stand forth as day eonseerated to univer. sal work in which we can all take a hand.

tween what he calls the teehnieality of the law and the teehnieality of those who ad- minister the law. Nor does he realize that incompetence of policeman. a juror or a lawyer is not fault in the law"
 In short. the trouble is usually with en- forcement. That puts the responsibility up to the official enforeers in the first instance, and then up to the public itself. The public usually has about as good enforcement as it deserves. or asks for. satisfactory while it has good men in charge. or while it is de- handing better administration. As ehoosers of enforeers. the Bar Association thinks the public hasn't been very bright. It reeom- mends appointment rather than election of prosecuting attorneys. judicial tenure during good behavior, and fewer changes in police leadership and policy.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-09-02
Gambling Funds

In connection with the stock market stampede, it is announced that during the second week of July brokers loans gained Sl00,000,000, reaching total of more than billion. This is small compared with the 6.000.000.0O0 and S7,O0O, O,0OO, 900 levels for such loans in the mad bull year of 1929, but rather large for the present financial situation of the country.
 For most of this money there are surely better uses. Much of it. no doubt. comes to New York from other parts of the coun- try. At the present rate. additional billions will soon be drawn there. to the dsadvan- tage of scores of communities suffering themselves. for lack of capital.
 It would be far better for the average American community, and in the long run for the metropolis itself. if these gambling funds were turned to constructive use at home. Perhaps We can assume that the Fed eral Reserve System. which tolerated the di- version of so much of the country's capital to Wall Street during the last boom. will find means to control the movement this time.
