Base Ball Won't

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, September 2l.-Kene-
saw NJ Lands, high commits
sioner Of base ball, said today there
will be no change in the world Sc
ries schedule to avoid the posi-
bility Of playing on October Z be-
cause it is Yom Kippur. the He
brew day of atonement.
The base ball commissioner made
this declaration when he learned
that Esther Duchin of Detroit had
started a movement to petition
Lands TO declare October 7 an
open date in the event a sixth
game is played in the world series.
Miss Duchin said that many
Jews would not attend a game on
that date and that Hank Green
berg, Detroit's smuggling first base
man and an orthodox Jew, might
be embarrassed if required to play
then.

~ ETROIT, September 21.-The
Detroit Tigers, behind bril-
liant pitching by two of their
~ four mound aces, mathemati-
cally riveted a second consecutive
American League pennant to their
home f1agpole today by sweeping a
double header with the st. Louis
Browns, 60 and 20.
Even should Detroit lose all its re-
naming seven games, the second place
New York Yankees, who beat Boston
today, could not catch them by
sweeping their eight remaining games.
If that happened, Detroit would have
90 won and SO lost; New York, 81
won and SO lost.
Auker Clinches 1t.
ITO Eden AUKER, the tall Kansan.
- went the honor of clinching the
flag for the Bengals. The submarine
BALI artist shut out the Browns in
the second game, allowing only six
hits. Pete Fox scored both Detroit
runs, crossing the plate in the third
and again in the fifth on singles by
Walker and Gehringer.
In the opener Detroit won behind
Tommy Bridges, who struck out
eight and allowed only seven safe
blows to win his twenty-first game OF
the season. A crowd of $1,000 saw
Manager Mickey Cochrane's club
clinch the bunting, but outside of a
few thrown hats and louder cheer
ing there was no demonstration.
Detroit annexed its second straight
title mainly through the pitching Of
Bridges, Auker, Lynwood (Schoolboy)
Rowe and the veteran Alvin Crowder.
These four pitchers won 70 Of the 80
games which Detroit has in the win
column. Bridges has mark OF Fl
won and lost; Auker, 10 and s;
Rowe, 15 and IL, and Crowder, Is
and 9.
Crowd Is Jubilant.
IT WAS happy crowd of Tigers who
left the field after the second
game. Cochrane was elated, personal
~ satisfied he had proved his club a
well-balanced aggregation which was
not just lucky to win the pennant
last season.
Detroit, in last place in April and
f1oundering badly, began its drive for
the league lead in June and in July
caught and then passed the Yankees.
Under Cochranes handling the
pitching improved, and one of the
main reasons Cochrane had success
with his hurlers was that he was able
TO work them regularly, in turn. After
passing New York, Detroit made a
runaway of the race, and for sew
eral weeks it was mainly a question
Of how soon Detroit would make its
second flag automatically certain.

CoppoIa Stars in Comeback"

&ENOR ESTALLELLA'S homer,
which started from his bat Ike a
pop fly but which refused to land
until the left-feld bleachers were
reached, was responsible for two Of
the Griffs' five runs. Another pair Of
tallies was contributed by Sam Hol-
brook, the somewhat soured-upon
catcher, who inserted two singles at
opportune moments, permitting young
Henry Coppola to bounce back into
Manager Bucky Harris program for
1886 by protecting an early lead tight
down to the finish.
Coppola, making his first slab start
since the Nationals regarded them
selves as pennant contenders, was not
as swift before coming down with
his sore arm last June, but he exc
hibited an improved curve, which
checked the AS when the chips we're
on the table.
The opener, in which young Lana
han sustained his second straight
major league defeat, did nothing exc
cept substantiate the belief that Rich
ard will be a handy fellow to have
around next year. He was wild as
blazes and lacked his fast ball. but
even so it was a ball game down to
the last inning.

ATTACK ON HITLER
IS HELD OFFICIAL
Macdonald Says Much
Censured Article Voiced
British Arms View.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, May Prime Minister
Ramsay Macdonald declared in the
House of Commons today that an
article he wrote last week lambasting
Germany reflected the opinion of the
British government.
The article was printed in the off,
cial news letter of the Labor party and
especially denounced Germany for its
aerial armament. Macdonald said he
personally considered its publication
was in the public's interest.
MacDonalds statement came shortly
after Sir Bolton Eyres Monsell, first
Lloyd Of the Admiralty, had told the
House that Germany would have its
first submarine since the World War
ready for action within six months.
Views Are Official.
In explanation of his article. which
was received with unfriendly COM
ments in Germany, the Prime Minister
said:
1.-THE governments views on the
effect Of Germany's recent action as
regards military planes. both as to
methods and amounts. has been ex-
pressed at StreSa and Geneva and in
dicated in the Commons in speeches
both by the foreign secretary and my
self. The article is substantially on
the lines of those statements and does
represent the views Of the govern
ments."
Replying to series Of questions. in
which the legislators sought further
enlightenment as to Germany's SUBJ
marine program, Sir Bolton said:
THE British naval attache in
Berlin was informed April 26 by the
German authorities that an order to
manufacture machinery, ornaments,
etc, for twelve 250-ton submarines was
given at Christmas and an order to
construct hulls and assemble the COM
ponent parts was given about the mid
die Of April.
First Craft Due Soon.
"He also was informed that, as a
result of extensive preparations which
had been made. the first submarine
would probably be completed within
six months"
In answer to question from Labor
Party member. Sir Bolton said he
could not confirm reports that Ger
many was building U-boats, some of
more than 1000 tons, more than q
year ago.
The first lord said he had no in
formation that the German sub
marine school at Kiel had reopened
The questions posed in the House
concerning submarines and Germany's
air force reflected a growing concern
by the members of Parliament over
Germany's rearmament.
David Kirkwood, Labor Party men,
Der from Glasgow. suggested that IF
the British government is in earnest"
German submarine construction could
be baked, because Great Britain con-
trolls 80 per cent of the world nickel
supply and Germany has neither cop
per nor tin Sir Bolton did not reply
to this suggestion.
Sir John Simon. foreign secretary.
was pressed for further information
as to Germany's military aviation
strength, but he begged off, promising
the matter might be referred to in
tomorrow's debate"

DR.. Paul Joseph Goebbels, minister
Of propaganda, introduced Hitler to

DIR. Robert Ley, commissioner of
trade unions, preceded both Hitler and
Goebbels and administered the oath to
shop delegates assembled on fields
throughout the Reich. These repre-
sentatives repeated, phrase by phrase,
the oath:
II swear fidelity to Adolf Hitler. ]
swear that I will practice and advance
I will be an honest helper to my COM

The military preparations in Ger

lent on his persecution Of the Jews.
Factories which had been taken over
by aryans are handed back to their
Jewish owners when it is discovered
that they can be operated more sue
cesSfully.
A number of Jewish emigres who
had found shelter in France are re-
turning to Germany.
The Berlin University has Je,o
among its professors at present,
and that means something because
that university 1pas against hdutng
Jews as "ordinary' professors eUen
in the days OF the Kaiser.
Some months ago. students Of the
Berlin University complained that
there was no teacher of the Ethio-
plan language. The professor who
used to teach Ethiopian had been dis
missed as a non-Aryan. There were
jobs available in Adid-Ababa for Ger
mans. provided they had at least a
perfunctory knowledge of the language.
The matter was brought to Hitler's
attention. who ordered the dean of
the faculty to reinstate the former
erudite doctor.
But he is a Jew" protested the
dean.
It's of no consequence, my dear
DEAN" replied Hitler Take him back;
the boys must be given a chance to
learn Ethiopian"

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

The French are laughing up their
sleeve at the British confusion caused
by Hitlers decision to junk the naval
provisions of the Versailles treaty.
They told the British foreign oflce
that the naval armament problem is
the admiralty's, baby and they can
deal with the Germans in. any way
they like Frances naval program has
taken into consideration the posi-
bilities of a German naval rearma-
ment for quite long time.
The truth about the whole thing is
that the British themselves had sug-
gested last Summer an increase in the
tonnage of the German Navy, and the
sentimental Macdonald told the
French that nobody's secutity would be
impaired if the Reich were permitted
to have a few token submarines and
one or two airplane carriers"
The French naual department
protested against this gesture OF
the British premier, and the Whole
matter ,pds left in abeyance, pend
ing the Sunlmoning of a general
naval conference to tuhich the Ger
mans and the Russians toere to be
inpted.
AS it is natural, the Germans were
given hint or two about MacDonald's
gesture, and they took
him seriously, mostly because they had
already started constructing some
small subs.
Startling to Britain.
That the British are startled at the
news of the existence Of
German submarine force Is quite
natural. The admiralty wants more
ships, especially destroyers. Great
Britain is bound to a limited tonnage
by the London naval agreement Of
$780, The only legal way to increase
the number of destroyers and small
cruisers is to take advantage Of the
escalator clause. And for that reason
the British government Is shouting
wolf" The Parliament will be scared,
and the necessary appropriations will
be forthcoming.
