no doubt the Frank Buck" O'Neil
old warrior of the oil fields and
cold storage business smiles in
approval as money is lost at the
altar of sports.
But the bankers will be diff
ferent. For that reason baseball
fans are wondering just what
will happen. The case of the club
compelS attention. It will reach
the halfway mark in the season
tomorrow, and there is none to
doubt that the Browns are due
to finish last. The mind of the
public is set on that, wherefore
the box office appeal of the
Mound City outfit is something
less than a trace.
More than that, Hornsby cannot
sell any more ball players. He
has a good outfield with West
Solters and Coleman. He has a
whale of a catcher in Rcllie Hem
sley. But for the rest of the team;
well, if you've seen it you know
the answer.
Rajah May Change
There are whispers around town
to the effect that Hornsby may
manage another club next year.
Early this season 1t was said on
excellent authority that if the
White Sox did not go places in
1885 he would Supplant Jimmy
Dykes. But the White Sox have
done nicely and Dykes seems
firmly intrenched in his place on
ComiSkey Park. Alva Bradley
stands firm behind Johnson, who
probably will be with the club next
year.
The Griffs start on the second
half of their season this after
noon. They've played IT games
already, winning SO and losing A.
They're seventh, and the harrow
ing part of it all is that they could
just as we'll be third as seventh.
Pitching that was several shades
worse than terrible is wholly and
absolutely to blame for their sorry
station.
The present position of the team
is obvious enough. But how to
improve; yes, there's the problem.
For one thing we may look to a
more aggressive brand of baseball.
Players will not overlook the
simple little detail of sliding into
a base on plays that may or may
not be close. And we may expect
them to bump shortStops in no
gentle manner when double plays
are to be broken up in this
manner.
An improvement in methods Of
sliding was noted in Saturdays

nouncement that Holbrook had

When he is asked what his
feelings would be if sent to a
lower league for more seasoning,
Alabama has no miSgivingS.

a hitter" he says. "But / know

some day and that would be one
way to earn the chance. I mean
if I played every day with a
lower-claSs club I would develop
my hitting all the quicker"
The Albany club does not in
tend shunting Pitts into the
bushes for more seasoning. Man.
ager Mamaux frankly states Pitts
is as good as any outfielder he's
got, defensively, and he feels that
before the season ends Pitts will
be hitting much better.
He has been assigned to a room
with Monte Weaver, a veteran
pitcher down from washington,
but is more inclined to pal around
with the younger men. He is "a
years old.
He still doesn't drink or smoke.
But he had his first "date" recent
ly when the club was in Buffalo.

Halt-forgotten days at the Ar
lington County courthouse lived
again Saturday when workmen
cleaning out the attic Of that
ancient structure un earth e d
county records dating back to the
1905.
The old attic had been partly
cleaned about two years ago, and
at that time many interesting
records which had lain hidden
for a hun,-ed years or more
were discovered, but the findings
then were not nearly so numer-
GUS as those Of the past week
end.
In one muSty pile was a group
Of deed books which dated back
to the days Of the War Between
the States and also showed the
numerous transfers Of property
which took place after that
memorable struggle. Court rec
ordS and minutes reflecting the
legal tilts of those bygone days
were included in the discoveries.
Perhaps the most interesting
thing in the entire collection was
the sample ballot on the presiden-
tial election of 1892 which flut.
tered to the floor while a work
man was moving a badly diSinte-
grated nackjnr caEa This Httla

TURNSEYE
ON FOREIGN
COMMERCE
BY International News Service


With the international naval
situation temporarily shelved,
Secretary Of State Cordell Hull to-
day turned his New Year thoughts
to the reciprocal foreign trade
movement and modification of
the st. Lawrence waterway treaty
with Canada. '.-
The final touches were being
put to trade agreements with
Brazil, Colombia and Haiti. OF.
ficial announcement Of the con.
cluSion Of agreements with these
three nations, designed to in.
crease the flow Of commerce be.
tween them and this country, was
expected within q week or 10
days.
Secretary Hull was eager to
have at least three or four of
these foreign trade agreements
concluded before any critic in
Congress had an opportunity to
call that body's attention to the
fact that the unprecedented tariff.
fixing power bestowed upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt at the last session
had failed to bring any sub
stantial results in the develop
ment Of American foreign trade.
Only one foreign trade agree
ment has actually been concluded
50 far-the one with Cuba.
Meanwhile, the State Depart
ment was rushing plans for modi!.
fication Of the st. Lawrence
waterway treaty with Canada.
Secretary Hull had instructions
from President Roosevelt to have
that treaty ready for early sub.
mission to Congress. Indications
were that the President intended
to bring all the power of his
personal influence to bear upon
Congress to ratify the modified
treaty.

PUBLIC WORKS
EXPANSION
ON WAY
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
A program Of controlled expan.
sion Of public works, giving EN-.
ployment to millions and calling
for the expenditure of thousands
Of millions Of dollars over long
period of years, was being shaped
today.
Groundwork for the program
was laid last year by Secretary
Of the Interior Ickes, as Public
Works. Administrator. Through
such a program, Mr.. IckeS' CO
workers see not only a gradual
overcoming Of the depression, but
a fortification against future de-
preSsionS.
Call For Funds
Projects, under way or author
i1ed from the 3,700 millions ap-
propriated by the last Congress,
assure employment for approx
mately 100000 men this year.
There are applications for
public works totaling more than
1000 millions which can only be
allowed if Congress makes avail
able the funds.
But most Of these projects
would provide for only year or
two of work at the best. The
long-range program looks far into
the future. Already given deep
study, already at least surveyed
in part, and estimated as to cost,
are such projects as:
Mississippi Valley, flood and
low.water control, reforestation,
navigation, sanitation, hating Of
erosion, power, irrigation, wild life
conservation, and recreation; eSti-
mated cost, 1000 million dollars;
time Of work, 20 years or more.
Grade crossing elimination, 500
million dollars; time, 10 to 20
years.
Far-Reaching Plans
Trans-continental highway, pro
viding highspeed artery from
coast to coast, including feed
roads from principal centers, 1000
million dollars up; 10 years up
ward.
Housing, including slum clea--
ances, construction Of low-coSt
rental projects in cities, sub
sistence homesteads in rural dis
tricts, abandonment Of unproduc.
tive lands and transfer Of pro-
ducers to productive lands; self.
sustaining program extending 35
years or more, with costs almost
ineStimable.
The continuation Of pubic
works this year, to an extent
almost as great as for the past
year, is practically assured through
already pending and allocated
projects. Projects numbering T.
600 are under construction, and
1890 others have received alloC-
1nentS.
