Mr.. SABBATH ACCUSES

Now it is the supreme court which Is
attacked by an outstanding member Of
the Democratic party, Representative
Adolph j. SABBATH, of Illinois.
IN times past the supreme court has
been accused of being slow, inefficient
and archaic. Mr.. SABBATH, we believe, is
the first man of consequence to question
its integrity
Speaking on the floor of the house yes
terday the Illinois gentleman charged
that "many Judges (of the supreme
COURT were formerly corporation law
yers. These gentlemen seem unable to
divorce themselves from their corporate
connections
Mr.. SABBATH, of course, leaves a loop
hole for himself by not directly charging
the judges with corruption. He merely
iEfers that their training has been such
that they cannot interpret the law in
wholly disinterested manner
The records of the judges, as the Unit
ed Press points out, does not bear out
Mr.. Sabath's contention, Chief Justice
Hughes having achieved national fame
by his Investigations of big corporations,
while there is nothing outstanding IN the
records of Justices Van Devanter, Suth-
erland and McReynolds, to indicate they
are bound to corporations. All have had
long service on the supreme court bench.
They are classed as conservatives" The
other conservative" Justice Pierce But
ler, was a railroad attorney in Mime
sofa, with an international practice.
The so-called liberal" justices, Rob
erts. Cardozo, Brandeis and Stone, have
Joined with the others in adverse decls-
ions on various phases of the new deal
these decisions appearing to be the chief
source of Mr. Sabath's irritation.
1t is grave charge for anyone to make
against the supreme court-one bulwark
of the government in which the people
have had implicit faith and confidence,
and which, throughout the years, has
been surrounded with a halo of integrity
and impartiality. Coming from an out
standing member of congress = Mr..
SABBATH is the dean of the house, with 10
consecutive terms to his credit = it can
do great harm by undermining the faith
of many in the integrity of the supreme
court.
The charge is unfair as well, for the
justices of the supreme court are not IN
position to reply and defend themselves.
Mr.. Sabath's accusation must go unan-
swered except for such protests as this.

Withdrawal of the Golden State
piehtbaI team from the Glass A

several of his teammates play III
the Brawley league and the Sched-
ules between the two leagues con-
flict. it was thought best to drop
the Golden State team from the
local league.
League managers now find them
selves in difficulties and there is
possibility that another team might
be dropped and the season com
pleted with a four team league. IL
was also rumored this morning that
the CUHS team, now dominating
the B league, may be moved into
the Glass A circuit in order to keep
the six team schedule intact. a
meeting will be held within a day
or two to decide this question.
Another possibility looming up
strongly is that the A league might
be scrapped entirely and four
team county league formed to
battle it out for the rest OF the
summer. Proponents Of this idea
and there are many here and in
other valley cities where nightball
is played-believe that teams from

The only challenge round match
the Americans feel fairly sure of is

Hughes is past his prime; Tuckey
has yet TO prove he has one.
Hughes greatest weakness is an
inability TO handle lobs. and lobs
are part and parcel Of the doubles
game. Tuckey, a strappine young

is just as likely to hit the umpire
as The inside of the court. In fact,

NEW YORK, July 25 - Seven
times since the Four Musketeers
of France lifted the trophy back in
1927 has the American Davis cup
team knocked on the throne room
and seven times have the raps gone
unanswered.
Saturday, on Wimbledon's trea-
sured turf, the Americans will
make their eighth challenge for
the Holy Grail of tennis. As in 1884
it win be made against England
and, again as in 1884, the chief
problem will be Frederick j. Per-
ry, No. in the world and leader
of the British defense forces.
II takes no mathematical genius
TO grasp the fact that in a series
decided on the basis of the best
three of five matches, the side
which starts two down is at decid-
ed handicap. And that is just what
any nation which challenges Eng
land for the Davis cup faces. Per-
~ is good for his two singles
matches before he starts. Unless
Captain Joseph Wear of the Amer
ican team can figure out a ways
and means of halting Perry before
Saturday, our chances Of winning
are not only null and void, but
nuX yomica as well.
Speaking of stopping Perry re-
minds me Of the scene in the VIM
bledon dressing room just before
the start Of the challenge round
last year. The English and Amer
lean players, all close friends, were
dressing together. AS they dressed,
they discussed their chances
Suddenly George Lott, the Amer
ican doubles ace, grabbed Perry
about the waist and, lifting him
high, plunked him down on the
rubbing table
Calling to Lester Stoefen, Lott
yelled:

NEW YORK, July 25 (UP -
Baseball drama was concentrated
in st. Louis today where the New
York Giants battled desperately to
stave off the challenge of the st.
Louis Cardinals for National League
leadership.
The Giants and Yankees cling to
first place, but it was possible for
last years world series rivals, the
Cards and Tigers, to reverse the
standings by tomorrow night.
The Giants position was the more
secure. They were a game and a
half in front of the Cardinals. After
seeing their lead melt away as a
result of a siX-game losing streak,
the Giants have turned on the
Cardinals and knocked them back
TO second place with two smashing
defeats.
The Cardinals must sweep today's
double-header to gain the National
League lead. An even break will
send the Giants home a game and a
half ahead. A clean sweep for the
Giants will halt, temporarily, the
Cardinals pennant rush.
On the outcome of the single
postponed game between the
Yankees and Tigers hangs the
American League lead. The Yankees
held .00O4 of a percentage point
lead over the Tigers.
The Tigers drive. which started
in the cellar. has seen them climb
game by game, place by place, all
the way up the American League
standing until today they were on
the threshold of first place.

RESULT OF PLAYER SHORTAGE

made up Of the best players from
each city, would go a long way to
revive interest in nightball which
is at present decidedly on the down
grade.
Using Substitutes
It was pointed out that one OF
the chief reasons for this lack OF
interest at present is the fact that
SO many teams are forced to call on
volunteer substitute players when
they are scheduled TO play league
game. Naturally, it was said, such
players could not fit in to the
usually smooth running machine
play of these teams and as a result
a listless game would be played.
Again, it was said, the question OF
pitchers is now troubling several OF
the league teams. These difficulties
could be obViated by a city team
which could use all the best pitchers
and players residing here to the best
advantage and every game would
naturally be of a high quality,
These questions are expected to
be thoroughly discussed at the
meeting of league managers this
week and it is hoped that some
solution will be found for the
present difficulties which will raise
The interest in nightban to its
former high level.
Tonight the Coca Colas and
Steam Laundrymen will meet for
the first time in the second half of
the schedule and with Joe Hurst
and Bob O'Brien in good form a
real battle should develop.

UNCLE wIGGILY AND JINGLE'S
TOE


Besides playing in the woods
around Green Lake, where they
were living in a cottage fc- the
summer vacation, Uncle Wiggily's
little rabbit boys and girls often
would go wading in the water.
There was a sandy beach not far
from the cottage and there, in the
shallow water. the animal children
would wade and paddle, having
much fun.
The water cooled their toes. their
paws and their legs. The spicy cool
wind from the woods blew on them
and cooled the hot sun. It was
lovely az Green Lake.

BIZ Buster and the other rabbit

reaching down and turning over the
green moss covered rocks on the
bottom of the lake. The rabbit boys
were IN water about up TO their
knees. All Of a sudden, Buster
called

DON'T QUOTE
ME"
BY United Press

WASHINGTON, July 25.-John
r. AEcCarl, comptroller general, to-
day said, in effect, that the gov
ernments famous &C" men would
have TO sleep with their shooting
irons under their pillows and like
it.
McCarl, whose rulings have be-
come the fear and terror of most
government departments, cracked
down on the G-men in the same
ard-boiled fashioned with which
the justice agents have cracked
down on gangsters.
The question Of the shooting
irons was raised by the justice de-
partment
The department asked permis-
sion to allow its agents to travel in
compartments and drawing rooms
on trains. pointing out that heavy
armament such as sawed-off shot
guns. sub-machine guns, was STAN
dard equipment for G-men nova
days.
Agents riding in lower berths
might have their firearms stolen,
the department said, and further
more, sleeping with a sawed-off
shotgun or a hefty sub-machine
gun isn't what it's cracked up to
be.
McCarl didn't yield an inch in
the face CT this eloquent plea.
There can be no exception to
the rule" he said. 1T would ap-
pear that travel Of employees is in
yolyed rather than conveyance OF
firearms"
That means. he said, that the
agents must travel according to
law at the lowest first class rates
which has long been specified as a
lower Pullman berth.
Henry Morgenthau, Jry secretary
Of the treasury, has got the right
idea about vacations in this sum-
mer Of the long congress.
I'm making no plans for my va
cation said Morgenthau, until
Jack Garner buys his railroad
ticket"
The Garner railroad ticket long
has been classed with the first ro-
bin of spring and the grounding as
a certain forecast Of adjournment.
Garner invariably takes the first
train back to Uvalde. Texas, after
congress quits and he never buys
his ticket until adjournment really
is in order.
The souvenir shops have added a
new novelty 70 their collections
They are small plaster busts Of
Sen. Huey P Long. Most shops
have them IN two styles - plain
plaster at so cents and bronze
painted at 81. Curiosity shop pro-
prietors say that the busts are
selling pretty well. with the So
cent variety going faster than the
81 style.

WHY N.4ZT UNIFORMS?

We don't profess to know much about
this row between Mayor LaGuardia of
New York and German-American citi-
zens as we'll as the German consul-gen-
eral in New York, and through him the
German reich.
1t is quite possible that Mayor La
Guardia has gone too far and that an in
ternational affair may be made of
tempest in a teapot On the other
hand he may be right.
One thing on which we have no doubt
is the right of men wearing the Nazi un-
form to be permitted to organize or
show themselves as body in this coun-
try.
Dispatches from New York giving an
account of a mass meeting of German
Americans held to protest against the
mayors course. report that squads Of
'Nazi uniformed guards kept order.
That it would appear to us, demands
an explanation. The only uniforms need
ed in this country are American uni
forms. Germany most certainly would
object to any group Of men wearing AM
erlcan army, navy or marine uniforms
preserving order at a meeting in Ger
many
We grant the right of the German peo-
pie in America, whether they have be-
come citizens or still retain their Ger
man status, to show an interest in the po-
litical affairs of their fatherland, but
they have no right to bring the uniform
of that country into this nation and par
ade it or use men uniformed with it.
One of the German speakers is quoted
as saying Germans in America have ma
tural rights, ''and by God we are going
to fight for them" The shoe fits on both
feet. The American people have the
right to demand the expulsion of the
Nazi uniform and by the same power
they ought to be ready to fight to see
that it goes.
