Leagues
Enroll for
Activity
By GARRETT WATERS

A city-wide baseball series for
insect and peewee teams.
That's the newborn idea OF
Charlie Reynolds, athletic director
at the Boys Club of Washington
Charlie hopes to start within
the next two weeks. He must mark
time at present, because several
leagues, which will have teams
entered, have not finished their
schedules.
But when the series finally gets
under way, it promises the kids
all they might desire as a closing
feature of what has been an active
Sandlot baseball season in Wash
ington.
Five Leagues Enter
Five leagues have signified their
intentions of competing thus far.
They are the Central City League,
the Columbian League, Eastern
Community Center League, Vet
erans of Foreign Wars League and
the Boys Club of Washington
League.
Peewee and insect champions Of
these circuits will play. Winners
of each section will get junior
trophy, put up by the Junior
Board Of Commerce, while indi-
vidual awards will go to players
of the two championship teams.
The Ellipse diamonds will be
the scene of early contests. 1t is
hoped the finals can be arranged
at Griffith Stadium. This will
be definitely known later.
The series is open to any league
which has been in operation this
season. Many more than the
five mentioned above are ex-
pected to enter teams and all
others interested can get in touch
with Charlie Reynolds at the
Boys Club of Washington or by
phoning National 1885.

Editor, PRODUCERS NEWS,
All I know is what l read in
the paper. So when / read in the
last issue of the PRODUCERS
NEWS a call for a defense mass
meeting to be held January IL, at
the Temple, signed by A. N. Wan
KEEL and John Boulds, to take steps
for the defense of the farmers
and workers indicted for partici-
patton in the Nelson penny sale
at the Nelson farm on the Dakota
side near Westby in October 1888,
I was astonished. was not as
tonished that the PRODUCERS
NEWS should take up the defence
of the indicted men as a group,
but l was amazed when saw the
names of Hans Hardersen and ST.
mon Swanson included in the list
of those the PRODUCERS NEWS
is fighting for.
Now I fully agree with Wankel
and Boulds that every farmer and
worker should come to the de-
tense Of these indicted farmers:
for their fight was our fight, but
as l read the call wondered
why these two men with the edi-
tor of the PRODUCERS NEWS
should be the first to come TO the
defense Of these men.
Not 80 long ago these three
men were slandered and worse in
the column of the Farmers Ma
tional Weekly in an article signed
by Hans Hardersen under che
! heading of 1.-THE Taylor Ingerson
Clique Seize Producers News;
Rank, File Lose Control" and
while Simon Swanson did not sign
this infamous article, he did sup
port and approve the ibels in the
article, privately carrying on z
disgraceful word Of mouth cam
paign against them.

nature" but / guess don't.
A little explanation would not
be out of order.

saddle too much of the taxes on
the farmers and small citv prop
erty owners.
For instance, in Montana there
IS a movement among farmers
and workers to enforce the equal
ity provision of the Constitution
and make the corporations paw a
state income tax equal in proper
alton to what natural persons
pay. This would take from alb
sentee landlords an estimated four
million dollars annually. These
same farmers and wOrkingmen
want to stop some of the 8 mil
lion dollars taken every year bv
the insurance companies from
Montana above what they return
in losses. There is a movement
on foot to make the Northern Pa
cific Railway pay one dollar per
acre tax per year on its four mil
lion acres of land in Montana.
Those who realize that displace-
ment of labor by machinery has
caused much suffering think that
a tax of one dollar per ton should
be placed on the Colstrip mine of
the Northern Pacific where It
mines above one million tons Of
coal yearly at cost of 80 cents
or less per ton by open pit meth
cd. The Northern Pacific has a
surplus of $185,565,0OO and pays
the wages as the Milwaukee Rail-
road which is in bankruptcy. Tax
es like these would take the bur-
den off of farms and homes and
provide old age pensions and ex-
empt real estate up to $500 for
married men.
While there are many pregres-
sives, fearless thinkers IN these
clubs, the rank and file are other
wise. They advocate their own
economic suicide.

A SUGGESTION FOR A NEW
NATIONAL FLAG
BY Bruce N. TAYLOR

Whereas, three per cent of the people
own 80 per cent of the wealth of the ma
ton and the "Ship of State" has been
completely scuttled by this band of finan-
clal and industrial pirates and
Whereas. our democratic form of GOV
eminent is rapidly being replaced by
ruthless and unprincipled bureaucracy as
shown by the numerous alphabetical set
ups at our seats of government, national.
state and local, and
Whereas, the further use of the stars
and stripes as the emblem of America is
an insult to the memory of our RevoIu-
tlonary forbears and to our best tradi-
tons;
Therefore, new flag should be adopt-
ed in keeping with the spirit of the bunch
OF pirates who have replaced democratic
forms with a reign of terror and threat
OF worse starvation than the nation has
ever before faced; so suggest in the lines
below the ideas which should be in mind
when the new flag is designed.
The ebon square which the pirates flew
Should take the place of the field of blue
While the stripes of red and white
Should be the hue of darkest night
And to relieve the sOmbre of body and field
A.silver swastika on golden shield.
Then to complete the gruesOme whole
Faces and axe should crown the pole.

TWO PARTIES, ONE PROGRAM

In other words, while there are plenty
OF emotional differences bewteen the fol-
lowers of President Roosevelt and those to
the conservative side of him, and enough
heat to make a diverting, if uninstructive
political campaign, there are no essential
economic differences. Both sides are COM
mltted to the preservation of the profit
system, with varying degrees of reform,
but with a total lack of concern for the
needs of the people.
While the administration chops off re-
lief for the unemployed, conditions of I'm
believable misery continue throughout the
country. While the President talks about
the restoration of the national income to
norma" levels, the waste of unemploy-
ed labor and unused machinery and resour-
ces goes on inflicting unnecessary poverty
upon the great majority of the American
people,
President Roosevelts defiance of bio
business Is by no means as bold as it ap-
pears, nor is his concern for the common
man and woman as deep seated as many
liberal minded people appear to think.

men from the houses they occupied. What
ever the role of the r. F. c. may have been
and it knew of the conditions before it
made the loan-the Relief Administration
has so far fatty refused to aid the distress
Sed villagers.
This story could be repeated too many
times to be cast aside as an isolated, acct
dental case. 1t is too evidently part of
deliberate policy of one more depart
ments of the Roosevelt Administration.
And although the residents close advisers
on relief matters personally know of this
case, President Roosevelt is able to tell
the country that the need for relief is pas
sing
But if fundamentals will not be faced by
the present Administration, what then?
Are the people to have a choice only be-
tween two political parties, both commit
ted to balancing the budget, reducing
taxes, ending public works and relief, and
turning the country back to the private
enterprisers who have despoiled it and
brought ruin to the people?
