BROOKLYN Y. SHOTS
 By MAURICE ETERGlNlO

The second round of the Brook lyn Y Midget League is now un- derway and to date the Acmcs have subducd the Hawks, and the Rangers have toppled the Orioles. The Acmes have won four in four, Rangers three in four, Duces split in four; Orioles one in four; and Hawks, nothing in four.
 The Rangers have shown plenty of stamina to date and should cause plenty of trouble in the next few games. The Duces, who have been fin a slump, seem to bc hcad- cd for a reincarnation. The Ori. Olcs seem to lack the necessary punch to make them a consistent threat. The Hawks are the young. est team in the circuit, accounting for thciO goose egg rating against more experienced opponents.
 Hooker" Martino who toots the whistle in all games when inter. viewed the other day regarding his opinion of the Acmes, said, "I have never seen q Brooklyn Y quintet like the Acmes with as much fight as these lads. They're In there every every minute fight ing the ball which is proving of great advantage to them. They're class with capital letters"

Wanting as JobIess
Remedy.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, January 1e.-Great Brit
ain has tried the system Of public
works as a remedy for unemployment
and found it wanting.
The experience is set forth in 300
page volume, National Public Works,
published by the League of Nations
on the basis of replies from 90 ma
tions. including the United States.
Britain's reply was that "the ex-
pertinent Of large public works as a
method of dealing with unemploy-
ment has been tried and has failed,
and it is not intended to repeat it. -
1t said the British view was that the
ultimate test Of each work must be
its social or economic value.
The reply added that England's ex-
perience showed that the stimulation
of public works selected primarily in
respect to their employment providing
capacity had little effect on unem-
ployment in proportion to the heavy
expenditure incurred.
THE work when completed leaves
burdens on national and local finance
which impede the recovery of normal
activity" Britain also said.
The report concluded that the ex-
pansion of normal activity will most
surely and rapidly be brought about
by the creation of confidence, par
ticularly by balanced budget, the
lowering of the rate Of interest and
facilities for the removal of hin
drances to trade"
