SCREWBALL AGE HAS BEST MARK SINCE MARQUARD
New York Giant Pitcher; Also Has NO-Eiit Game;
 To Pitch Finale Sun.

Limited Preas Stan Correspondent
 New York, Sept. 2l--(UPl--Kanly Carl Owen Fzubbell, 33-year old Southpaw whose screwball has ca- tapulted the New York Giants from second division mediocrity almost, to the National league cl1ampicsl= 2 ship, was No. 1 candidate today for the senior circuits most valuable player award of 1886.
 When Hubbell pitched his 18th consecutive victory and 18th of the season yesterday to clinch at least. a tie for the pennant for New York, he accomplished feat not eQualled in the National league in a quarter of a century. Rube Marquard last turned the trick on his way to a record of 19 in Q row in 1912. He will get 6 chance to make it l7 straight in his final appearance of the regular season against Brooklyn at the Polo Grounds Saturday. a.
 Best Yet <.
 With only six defeats chalked Up against him, Hubbell is head and shoulders above his 1883 and 1885, records, 23 won and l2 lost, and. almost a certainty to be named most valuable player in his league, which would make the second time he has been selected for the award. He first. received the honor in 1883, when his great hurling was the prime factor. in the Giants capture of the world championship. ss
 Hubs to { triumph over the Phillies yesterday, in which he al-. lowed eight hits, left the Giants needing just one more victory to- clinch the pennant. A defeat for the St. Louis Cardinals will have the same effect. The Giants are five, games in front and both teams have five to play, making the Giants e. mathematical certainty to tie for. the penannt even if they lose all the rest and the Cards win all theirs. X
 Already belonging to that select group of major league hurlers who, have pitched 8 nolhit game (only one in the majors in 1920), Hub-r, bell now joins an exclusive group of seven who have won 16 or more straight games in baseball history Tim Keefe of the 1888 Giants. Marquard, who won 19 straight, "Old Hoss" Radbourne, who won lS with Providence in the National league in 1884. Smoky Joe Wood of the Red Sox and Walter Jhnson of the Senators who won IS con-, secutive tits in 1912, Lefty Grove. who twirled l6 victories in Q row in 1881, and Schoolboy Rowe of the Tigers who achieved a 16-game streak in 1884.
 Cubs Out s
 St. Louis was rained out yester. day and will play the game in a double header at Cincinnati today. The Chicago Cubs lost their last chance for . first place tie when they dropped 10-inning struggle to the Pittsburgh Pirates, 2 to 6.

water-borne commerce of most of our sea-
ports.
And Just as Premier Blum, although the
spokesman of the working class, was compelled
to use the force of government against the
strikers so the President chosen by the over
wheming support of labor, is going to be
obliged to use the force of government against
the strikers
The comparison cannot be carried too far
The French strikes were far more widespread
and French labor is more largely organized
But the problem in America is serious The
seamen's and longshoremen's strikes
undertaken in defiance of the International
Seamen's Union. The actual leaders of the
strikes in most cases have refused to negoti-
ate; and insist on complete acquiescence by
shpowners in their demands. They also refuse
TO recognize the authority of the newly created
United States Maritime Commission
This leaves the administration at Washing
ton with no alternative but to use its srndry
powers to compel the strikers to abandon their
scheme. The seamen, at least, have some valid
grievances But they lose their claim on the
governments sympathetic aid when they defy
their own lawful leaders and also the authority
of the government
An additional factor is involved The tie
up in ocean shipping creates very serious food
shortages in Hawaii and Alaska as well as
some American ports. The position of our out
lying possessions is particularly serious since
foreign ships are forbidden by law to serve the
domestic trade. The shipping industry there
fore has somewhat the status of a public
utility which must continue in operation re-
CARELESS of any labor disputes.
Strange thing is that in face of such sentimer
ne shipowners and unions who should be more famil
r than the average with the location of the tv
erritores, claim we have ample supplies. The que
ion has often been asked, what has human msel
do with it when selfish interests are to be served
