ley either resign from the cabinet or
give up his craftsmanship of the Demo-
cratic national committee. In line
with this his bill would prohibit the
postmaster general from holding any
political office.
The Michigan senator said he had
written the bill after conferences with
the civil service commission and serv-
ice organizations within the Post
Office department. He predicted it
would have strong support from the
latter quarter.
By taking politics out of the de-
partment and establishing a career
service, Vandenberg said, "the pave
ment-pounding letter carriers may look
forward to ultimate graduation to the
high post of first assistant postmaster
general"
Under this BILL" he added, politics
and postal affairs at last are sep
grated as far as is possible in a
democracy. All local postmasters are
put squarely under civil service with
emphatic and effective priorities given
to the postal grays' themselves.
Existing postmasters are permitted
to serve out their present commissions.
Thereupon the vacancies are filed by
promotion from the service ranks.
Only In the event that no such person
Is available-and we anticipate that
this contingency would not arise other
than in some of the smallest Offices
can the vacancy be filled otherwise
than by promotion"

ions Of business men for which he
called, the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States now recommends
that the national recovery act be re-
placed by new legislation to take fed

The expression of the organization
followed a tabulation of a referen-

organizations in its membership.
The business group declared itself
for revision by the coming congress
after a weighing of experiences under
the present stringent regulatory laws.
By an overwhelming majority men,

Tournament plans were discussed
by representatives from Elkhart,

pointed out they had played
throughout the season on 45-foot
baselines and the tournament dia-
mond had a 60-foot baseline.
Nine directors of the association
were elected, including Alfred

The Indians made four errors IN
that game and were held to six hits
by Walter Tauscher, one a homer
by Johnny StOneham in the sixth
inning. The Millers played error
less bail and nicked Jim Turner for
eight safeties.
One Play, Three Errors
A movie picture of that freak
rundown play in the last half of
the ninth of the first game would
pay juicy dividends. Arlett opened
it with a drive against the right
field fence Stoneham threw to
Bluege and Arlett looked like an
easy out trying for second, but UNI
pire Kober called the runner safe.
The Indians made vigorous pro-
test and Manager Killefer was ban
ished. Gaffke was disposed Of, Ar
lett holding second.
Norris grounded to Bluege, who
threw to LaWrie at third to head off
Arlett. 1t was a cinch out, but Law
RE dropped the ball when Arlett
bumped into him. Leitz batted for
Crandall and bounced to Lawrie,
trapping Arlett between third and
home.
A rundown started and finally
Catcher Joe Sprinz hit Arlett in
the back with the ball and it
bounced beyond third. Arlett was
back at third by that, but turned
and trotted home, completely eX-
hausted, when Stephenson. backing
up the play, let Sprinz' wild throw
get by him. It was tough one
for Pitcher Jim Turner to lose.
The NIillers won the second tilt by
rallying for three runs in the second
stanza and the Tribesmen were I'M
able to catch up. Lefty Logan was
wild at the start. He was opposed
by Ray Starr. Hits were nine for
indianapolis and eight for Minneap-
oils. The ATillers committed three
mis- cues in this battle, which was an
eigl1t-inning affair called by the 6
o'clock Sunday law

Indians to second place and Ownie
Bush's Millers took the league lead.

having dropped the last game at

today to engage the third-place
Apostles, who are right on the heels
of the Killeferites. The Saints will
be met today, tomorrow and
Wednesday. The Indians will have
an off-day Thursday, and on Fri
day they will open the night base

ing the Kansas City Blues.
SherIock's Absence Hurts
The injury suffered by Babe Law
RE, rookie infielder, on Friday, was

However, Vim Sherlock, regular Sec
ond sacker, is still on the shelf
nursing a Charley horse" His abb
sence hurts both in the field and at
bat. Lawrie is unaccustomed to sec
ond and Fred Bedore, moved over
from third, is too slow for the posi-
ton.
Umpire Kober, new in the league,
said Manager Killefer threatened to
punch him, but that's the baloney.
Killefer has a habit, when engaged
in an argument, of pulling up his
sleeves, and Kober thought the Tribe
chief was readying up to sock him.
Killefer appeared to have plenty
Of reason to protest Kober's de-
cisions. The umpire seemed to be
