BY BRENT DOW ALLINSON.
Can America remain honestly neu-
trail and at peace in world of con-
fiict? Congress has determined that
We shall try. But If another Euro
pean war is in the making, it be-
comes imperative for the American
people to decide now what policy to
pursue when the war breaks out.
Among those in Congress who have
participated in the formulation of the
new neutrality act, Representative
Fred j. Sisson, Democrat, of New York,
who does not happen to be a men,
ber of the Foreign Affairs Commit
tee. participated by invitation in its
discussions OF the new American pol
icy because of his interest in it.
In an interview, he declared:
"One Of the great values of the
neutrality bills is their philosophy
and notice that as a matter Of Amer
ican national policy, as declared by
Congress and the President jointly,
this country will not fight over the
protection of so-called neutral rights
in the future. One of the significant
phenomena of the years preceding our
entrance into the World War was the
seizing upon individual Incidents
such as the interference with our for
eign trade, submarine atrocities, the
Zimmerman note to Mexico, German
spies. and so forth, to infiame public
opinion against Germany.
Incidents Used as Excuses.
'The thesis of the isolationists Of
today is that it was not these incl
dents in themselves which were really
the motivating force for war talk,
but that they were seized upon as
formal excuses for those in favor of
American intervention. The present
law quite properly attempts to re-
move as excuses for war and war
propaganda such instances; but there
is every reason to believe that other
instances could be manufactured, if
there should be allowed to develop
q strong motivating force favoring
participation in war.
IT recognize that no neutrality leg
islation and no policy of national
economic lSOldIlOil Cdll cIlIlIcly lIlSu-
late us against the danger Of involve
ment in foreign war. Furthermore,
q neutrality policy which lessons or
reduces to a minimum the danger of
our involvement in war must always
do this at the cost of some loss of
trade and profit. and consequent un-
employment and suffering for some
people. But If we must choose be-
tween such loss and war, most of us
would certainly choose the former.
Our experience has demonstrated,
however. how unwilling many Of our
large business interests are to pay
such price. Some effort, therefore,
ought to be made on our part to help
remove the causes of war. I think
that many of our w-Americans
agree with this viewpoint.
But is not an effective implement
tation of the new neutrality policy,
with its economic sanctions against
warfare, one of the most potent
means imaginable of discouraging
belligerents from commencing war,
by making the supply of war mate
rials much more difficult to obtain?"

EVERYTHING about yesterdays
game was sad, except the fight
shown by the Nationals when they
overcame nire-run lead by the White
Sox to go ahead at one point, only to
lose out in the ninth inning.
Briefly, it happened like this. Jack
Russell, who was spotted one-run
lead in the first inning. couldn't get
more than one White Sox batter out.
Monte Weaver couldn't get any out,
and Ed Linke finally was called in the
game to end the first inning. in which

the next two frames they boosted the
score to 10-1.
The Griffs wouldn't quit. They
chased Monte Stratton from the box in
the fourth by scoring five runs and
they scored two more in the fifth of
Clint Brown to make it 1913 In the
sixth inning the Washingtons tied it
up at 1910, driving Brown out of the
box and bringing on Russell Evans, o

In the seventh a double by Bolton
and single by Pete Appleton, who had
relieved Linke. made it lilo in favor
Of the Nationals. but the big base hit
by Appleton must have affected him
for he blew up in the Sox's eight and
gave up two runs, putting the Chicagos

before the game, Luke Sewell of the
White Sox remarked:
There's guy who is just becoming
q great catcher. When we first played
Washington this season, I hardly could
recognize in Bolton the same fellow

There Is no denying that Bolton has
played a great game of ball for the
Nationals ever since the championship
season opened. He has developed
stiffness behind the bat and has been
handling the pitchers as smartly as
any catcher possibly could handle
them. At bat he's been the same
dangerous slugger that he's always
been.
Miles will hold down the catching
in capable fashion in case Bolton is
badly hurt, as he appears to be, and
now and then Walter will get his hit.
But he's no Bolton. and you can put
that down in your book.

DESIRED

Washington Hit Behind Bat
as Bolton Is Hurt in
Loss to ChiS0x.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN,


Stan Correspondent Of The Star.
ut. LOUIS, May 15.-The faint
whistling of trade winds echoed
over the Washington ball clubs
- encampment here today as the
Nationals sadly began the second leg
Of their Western touring.
The sadness was due to a cause
other than prospects of a trade with
the Browns, however, although In one
or two cases members of the Wash
ington cast are quaking. The big
reason for groans of fearful anticipa-
ton mingling with the trade winds
was because of the first serious-look-
ing injury to strike the Nationals
this season.
Delivering a blow at a vital spot
in the Griffith machine, Tony Piet
of the White Sox collided with
Catcher Cliff Bolton in yesterdays
13-to-12 fiasco at Chicago and it was
feared today that Cliff would be
shelved for three weeks with broken
ribs. He was able to leave the field
under his own power yesterday and
to make the trip here, but Bolton
was in great pain last night and
some time today he will be X-rayed.
Browns Seem Only Trade Source.
IF THE worst fears are realized
then Bucky Harris Nationals will
have battery trouble for sure. Except
for Buck Newsom and Jimmy De-
shong, it begins to look as though
Washington has no consistently good
pitchers at the present time. This
was a point that was pretty well
emphasized in yesterdays defeat at
the hands Of the White Sox.
OF course if any deal is made with
the Browns during the Nationals two
game stay in st. Louis it will be swung
with hopes of bolstering the pitching
staff. The Browns are just about the
only club in the league now that seems
to offer possibilities as a course of
trade and the only drawback to deal
ing with ST. Louis is that Bucky and
Uncle Clark Griffith will be pickering
with club that embraces on its roster
as much pitching junk as the Ma
tionals. AS a matter of fact the
Browns pitching is much worse than
Washington's.
Harris denied this morning that he
intended to approach Manager Rogers
Hornsby of the Browns about q deal,
but it was indicated in circles believed
to be "in the know" that Hornsby
would speak to Bucky. Unlike Harris,
the hard-bitten gent who pilots the
hapless Brownies needs q good deal
more than pitching.
For one thing. he could use an out
fielder and Washington has plenty Of
them. It's just a question of whether
Harris wants Jack Knott, Jim Walkup
or Elon Hogsett bad enough to give up
q gardener, they say.
If any deal is swung, it probably will
be for either Knott or Walkup. WASH
ington had chance to get Hogsett a
couple Of weeks ago and Griffith
turned down an offer of the Indian
southpaw for Red Kress. That was
before Kress staged his annual Gin
derella" show.

IT. LOUIS, May s15.-Probably the
most amazing succession of
base hits in the history of base
- ball is making life sort of
Hades for roly-poly Eddie Linke-of
what is laughingly called the WASH
ington pitching staff. Up to now this
department had tagged Linke as a
prime disappointment, but such dis
tinction fades. Regardless of whether
he pitches well or not, Linke is a game
guy any time he walks to the rubber
and winds up.
Probably the best way to explain it
all is that Linke was hit again yes
terday-literally hit The pitch he
throws at batter 100-odd miles an
hour was raped back at him-on
line drive and twice as fast-by Dixie
Walker in yesterdays game with the
White Sox in Chicago. BY few inches
he missed possibly permanent dis
ability.
The ball struck him on the
hip and caromed of for . base
hit.
So what? No, it didn't hit him in
vital spot. As a matter Of fact, Linke
was able to carry on in normal fash
ion. But that line drive Of Dixie
Walkers represented the fifth time
this year that Linke has known the
split-second, but terrifying, fear that
goes with screaming liner straight at
your body from a distance of approxi-
mately SIS feet.
Eds Case. Stands Out.
MAYBE it's hard to visualize the
A'A actual feeling. Sixty feet six
inches from every pitcher stands bat
ter, and in the big leagues most Of
them pack terrific power. BY the time
q pitcher takes his step forward and
completes his follow-through he is at
least S feet nearer the batsmen. And
line drive travels much faster than
a pitched ball.
Every pitcher runs risk of injury,
of course, but Linke's case seems to
be definitely apart from others. Either
a remarkable series Of blows or his |
overland pitching style makes him
a target for every batter in base ball.
Last July Ed stared death full4 in
the face for a minute fraction of q |
second when Jesse Hill, then with the |
Yankees, rammed q terrific drive to
the box. One of the best fielding |
pitchers, in the league, Linke didn't
even have time to get up his hands,
and the line drive struck him just |
over the temple. It struck with such |
force that it bounded back, on a fly, to |
Catcher Jack Redmond, who caught 1t |
and doubled Ben Champan of second |
base.
Linke wound up In hospital
and heard his teammates tell
him how lucky he was not to be
killed.

was wearing q Washington uniform,

Granville Is Question Mark.

~EOR the most part, their discussions
centered around one horse-Bold
Venture, winner of the Kentucky
Derby. Can he repeat his Derby
triumph at 3-16 miles? Will he be
the fifth horse in history to complete
the famous double? Sir Barton did
1t in 1919. Gallant Fox in 1880, Burgoo
King in 1882 and Omaha last year.
The Morton L. Schwartz ace will
not be opposed by Brevity, the horse
he beat by short head at Churchill
Downs. But arrayed against him will
. be four other horses he beat in the
Derby, including the unfortunate
Granville from William Woodward's
Belair Stud, which unseated his rider,
Jimmy Stout, at the start of the Blue
Grass classic.
While admitting Bold Venture Is
the horse to beat and that he'll be a
strong favorite at 6 to or less. Gran
vile is the big question mark. His
trials at Pimlico have been none too
impressive since returning from the
Downs, but he never has been known
as good work horse. He comes from
q family of Preakness winners, CAL
liant Fox being his sire and Omaha
blood brother. Like all sons of the
Fox, he has shown ability to run in
the stretch.

A Case Of Moxie.

NIKE, however, refuses to sub
scribe to the theory that the
overland delivery which he uses Is
the reason why so many line drives
are batted back at him.
"Its just chain of condolences"
he explains. Some day my luck
will change and I won't be hit for q
long, long time. At least, If there's
any law of averages, I won't be hit
once the streak is broken"
"What makes me sore" he
wound up, 'is that I haven't
hit q batter myself all season.
I'm fact, I haven't come close. But
they've hit me five times, which isn't
fair"
don't know whether Linke ought
to be written down as q failure. He
may not have fulfilled all his prom
ises, but the kid has plenty of moxie.
If you don't think its tough to stand
out In the pitching box and antici-
pate line drives which are too fast
for an expert fielder to handle, try
1t sometime.
That's what 1inke is doing and,
somehow, in the face of it all, he
manages to josh about it and press
his luck still farther. He probably
has been nearer serious injury and
death than any pitcher Of the mod
ern era.
And hes still coming back for
more.
