Dean Took Part in Mos1 Established
 Modern Record

In arranging the National League pitchers of 1892 in the order of their effectiveness. it was found expedient to classify them into three groups. the same ar rangement that has been followed in the last sixteen years. The first group embraces those who bore the brunt of the campaign and pitched at least ten complete games; the second, those who par ticipated to some extent in a minimum of ten games; the third all others who took part in a championship contest.
 Carl O. Hubbell, New York, is the leading pitcher with the low est average of 1.66 runs earned per nine-inning game, the lowest percentage since Grover Cleveland Alexander, Philadelphia, led the National League pitchers with l.5s in 1916. Hubbell also pitched most innings, 300; won most games, 23 and pitched most shutouts, 10

RAILROADS ASKED TO PAY
COMPETITORS BILL

The position of the railroads
in relation to their competitors
is vividly illustrated in an Incl
dent that recently took place IN
an eastern state.
Near a small town there is q
highway bridge over railroad,
marked Safe Load 8 Tons. "
The bridge is entirely adequate
for light trucks and busses at
present.
However,-a short time ago it
was demanded that the bridge
be altered-at the railroads ex
pence-in order to make it safer
for vehicles of greater weight.
The only vehicles of this kind
are the heavy trucks and busses
which run in direct passenger
and freight competition with the
railroad. The change, if finally
made. will cost the line $25, 900,
which must be taken out of its
shrinking Golfers. AS conse
quence, railroad investors will
be paying the bill making possi.
be competition which will de.
prive them of income!
This is doubtless an extreme
and unusual case. But it is in
dicative of the fix In which the
railroad industry finds itself to
day. 1t is regulated to the point
where it cannot make q move
without the sanction of govern
ment authority-and its competi
tors. operating on comparative
ly free basis. are waxing fat at
it's expense. The result ia that
millions of railroad investors are
in danger of losing their princi
pal, that hundreds of thousands
of wage-earners have lost all or
part of their livelihood. that a
multitude of industries which
depended on the railroads for
orders are in the doldrums. LIE.
gislation to remedy this injustice
is said to be on its way-and full
speed and clear tracks are in or
der to hasten its arrival.

YOUR RAILROAD INVESTMENTS

Railroad securities may not be
listed in your name. But the
chances are that you have an
insurance policy, savings &C
count, perhaps an interest in
some endowed institution. Ii
you have, you are railroad
shareholder. For a great many
years. banks and insurance com
panies and universities and hos
pitals have been putting much Of
their money into railroad bonds.
They did it because it seemed a
sure. fire investment, from the
standpoint of safety-no indus
try seemed more necessary to
the country or to have better
chance of permanence than the
railroad.
The question now is-was that
a mistake? The railroads are
still the basic medium of trans
port. They still carry practical
ly all of the long haul freight in
the country, and the bulk of the
short haul. They still reach
to every corner of the, nation
something no other transport
system does. They still offer
unparal.ed standards of service.
There is still no competitor 10
the field which is able to fill
their shoes.
Railroad Improvement in the
United States has stopped be-
cause we have regulated the rail
roads with an iron hand-and
allowed competitors to escape the
same type of regulation. 1t has
stopped because we have used
railroad taxes to subsidize water

REPEAL AN ECONMlc MEASURE

It was refreshing to hear
James A. Farley, chief spokes
man for the Democratic party.
tell the American people what
must be the result if they fail to
repeal the 18th amendment.
Even though the depression
has caused untold suffering and
hearaches it has done one big
thing. 1t has forced out of pub
lie life the pussy footing, vaccil
ating type of politician and has
moulded a new kind of public
official such as has not been seen
or, heard 10 America for so years
After pointing oat that the
Democratic party is definitely
pledged to repeal the 18Th amend
ment, Mr.. Farley said the ques-
ton is not a political one but in
wolves greater issues. those Of
economics and taxation.
He also warned that failure to
repeal the crime breeding sec
ton of the Constitution will
mean that the average American
taxpayer will find himself in the
position of paying from six to
ten dollars ia taxes out of every
one hundred earned.
Prior to adoption of the 18Th
amendment 20 per cent of the ex
penses of the federal govern.
ment came from revenue deriv
ed from liquor taxes. Since that
time there has been no revenue
from that source and 10 addition
hundreds Of millions of dollars
have been spent annually in a
vain attempt to enforce law
the MAJ jority of the people do
not favor.
Failure to repeal the 18Th
amendment can mean but one
thing. 1t will be necessary to
enact a federal general tax, a
