United Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, Sept. 8.-(UP)-The New York Yankees need to win only one game to clinch the American league pennant, but there Is al grand dog-fght for second place in- volving the Detroit Tigers, Chicago White Sox, Cleveland Indians and Washington Senators.
 Aside from first place. berths in the first division of the American league are anybody's prizes, with the Tigers and White Sox tied for second place, and the Indians and Senators tied for fourth, only a half game behind.
 In the National league the Giants are not quite so we'll off as the Yankees, and subway series" still Is not certainty, but a five game lead with only 2l to play is a mar gins that neither the St. Louis Cards nor the Chicago Cubs can laugh off.
 No games were scheduled today.
 The Giants gained two full games as they bowled over the Philadel- phia Phillies twice yesterday, 6 to 2 and IA to II, while the Cards and Cubs both dropped doubleheaders. Carl Hubbell chalked up his 18th straight and 22nd season victory to win the opener while the night-cap was slugging match with both sides using three hurlers
 The Pittsburg Pirates knocked the Cardinals of twice. Waite Hoyt bested Dizzy Dean, to l, in the opener. Mace Brown handcuffed the Gashouse Gang, IA to 1, in the second. The Cubs were nailed by the Cincinnati Reds, 6 to 2 and 8 to 1. Brooklyn and Boston split, the Dodgers taking the opener, to l. the Bees the second, to l.
 In the American, the Yankees took two from the Philadelphia Athletics, to 3. and to 3, while Chicago and Detroit split in the battle for second place, the White SoX coming back to win the night cap, 8 to ', the same margin by which they had dropped the cur Ldlll TdlSST,
 Cleveland kept its bid for fourth place alive by dividing with the St. Louis Browns. The Indians l7-year- old pitching sensation, Bob Fellers, struck out 10 Brownies and allowed but 2 hits to win the second game, to 1, after the Indians four errors in the first had allowed St. Louis to triumph, 6 to 4.
 Washington's Senators kept on all even basis with the Indians by de- feating the Boston Red Sox, 6 to {, then falling 6 to in the second game.

A. F. of L. Councils Report
on Social Security Act

w HEN the American Fedora
w ton of Labor'S annual con-
vention opened in Tampa it had be-
fore it the report of the executive
council dealing with, among many
other topics, the social security act.
The report heartily approved of a
federal social security program and
urged adoption of state laws that
would give labor the greatest pos
sible benefit from the federal stat
ute. If the federal law is unconsti-
tutional, the council said, sit is clear
that its provisions must be changed
or that sanction must be afforded
to them through an amendment to
the constitution.
The council questioned the wis
dom of obtaining the necessary
funds through payroll tax (which
to a great extent is to be paid di-
rectly or indirectly by the workers
involved" and suggested that con-
gress repeal this feature of the law
as soon as it convenes.
In discussing unemployment since
NRA's end, the council said:
The shorter work week and the
six hour day furnish the real solu-
ton to the insistent problem of I'M
employment. 1t is the responsibility
that private industry must accept in
order to give the necessary balance
to economic expansion"
The council reported a member
ship of 1922, 1913 on August 31-the
greatest since 1921.
The council dismissed John L.

Clark Howell, Eminent
Editor. Is Dead

CLARK HOWELL, editor and
~ president of the Atlanta Consti-
tuition and one of the best known
journalists in the United States,
died at his home in Atlanta at the
age of seventy-three after a long
illness. He was one of the original
directors of the Associated Press.
He was elected to the position at the
time of its incorporation in 1900
and held it at the time of his death.
Always active in state and ma
tional politics, Mr.. Howell was a
pioneer in the formation of "Roose-
welt for President" clubs. He was
offered his choice of several dip
lomatic posts in 1888 but declined,
saying he felt he could better serve
the President and the nation as
publisher of the Constitution. He
was at various times a member of
temporary national commissions,
but in the main devoted his time
to his journalistic labors. A few
years ago the Constitution won the
Pulitzer prize for ''meritorious serv-
ice in exposing political conditions
in Atlanta.

Loyalists Defend Madrid
With Desperation

T OYALIST defenders of Madrid,
IL reinforced by troops from the
southeast and apparently supplied
with airplanes and tanks from Rus
STA, put up unexpected resistance
to the furious attacks of the
Fascists, delaying the capture of
the capital. The insurgents sent
many planes to rain bombs on the
city and there were dramatic bat
ties in the sir as we'll as on land.
The attackers at one time smashed
the defending lines at the Los
Franceses bridge and forced their
way across the Manzanares river
and into the northwest quarter of
Madrid, but probably retired, for
the loyalists dynamited the bridge
and captured several rebel tanks.
The new supreme defense council
in the capital, taking charge when
the president and other government
officials fled to Valencia, was re-
ported to be functioning smoothly
and was confident of ultimate vic
tory over the rebels, even if Madrid
were lost to them.

Government Buys 9 Million
Acres of Poor Farm Land
2 EXFORD G. TUGWELL, R

2 EXFORD G. TUGWELL, Re-
N settlement administrator, an
nounced that the government had
acquired more than nine million
acres of land considered unsuitable
for crop production, and he added
that it should buy ten times as
much. The Resettlement admin
istration is committed to pay $780,
916,603 for the land, under option
in 210 different projects in A states
at an average price of $40 an
acre.
These acres, Tugwell said, could
not support human subsistence"
when used as they have been, and
so were being restored to grazing,
forestry, recreation, and other use
for which they were naturally fitted.
Tugwel reported 5,476 families
still residing on the tracts twill
need aid in resettling." More than
1000 families already have been
moved, it was disclosed, and many
others found new homes without aid.

Labor Board Dissolves
Harvester Council Plan

EMPLOYER corporations were
IL hit by a ruling of the National
Labor Relations board ordering the
dissolution of the industrial coun-
Gil plan" of the International Har-
vester company at the plant in Fort
Wayne, Ind.
While the ruling dealt only with
the Indiana plant, the board point
ed out that the same plan also ex-
lists in the other IA Harvester plants
in the United States and Canada. 1t
sets precedent also for future de-
cisions in regard to similar plans
in other manufacturing plants
throughout the country.
The industrial council of the Har-
vester company is an illegal labor
organization under the terms of the
National Labor Relations act, the
board ruled. Under it the employees
possess "only the shadow, not the
substance, of collective bargaining,
according to the decision. Numer-
Gus benefits conferred on the en-
ployees under the plan are admitted
but the board says most of them
"are granted in the form of pater-
nalism.''
