Bigger Farm
Income Helps
Retail Trade
AAA Business Study Re.
ycaIs Effects of Farm
Buying Power

Washington. Oct. II. -(U.R) -
Booming retail sales and sharply
increased industrial production
are traceable largely to improved
farm income under the new deal.
the AAA asserted tonight in pre-
Senting a detailed survey OF eco
nomic conditions.
Directed toward establishing the
relationship of farm buying pow
CT to industrial recovery, the sur
vey found that shipments of goods
from 16 northern and northeast
rrn states from 1882 to 1885 in
creased 60 per cent while agricul-
tural income during the same per-
iod increased 64 per cent. The
study covered more than 100000
freight WaybillS in the offices OF
l6 railroads which handle ap-
proXimately IS per cent of the
traffic in manufactured commodi-
ties to farm areas.
The results of the survey, ac-
cording to AAA Administrator H.
r. Tollcy, offer conclusive cvi-
dcnce that increased farm buy
ing power is in turn translated in
to increased industrial activity
Larger farm income" he said
"has made it possible for farmers
to buy once more the products OF
the industrial cCnterS, and thi@ ir
turn has meant larger payrolls
and more employment in those
CCnterS."
Further evidence of continued
business revival was given over tho
weekend when Jesse H. Jones.
chairman of the RFC, said there
is no longer any emergency" and
indicated he might ask congress
to discontinue the agency'S lend
ing powers. He said tWo-thirdS Of
the money loaned to industry and
business by the RFC during the
depression has been repaid.
The AAA business study, which
has continued over a thrcc-ycar
period, embraced carlot railway
shipments of manufactured and
commercial commodities from tho
l6 important industrial states cast
Of the Mississippi and north OF
the Potomac an dOhio rivers tC
the agricultural areas west and
south Of these streams.
Commodities studied. it was
stated, were divided into four
main groups: Cd agricultural -
those used principally in farm
production: ~ domestic and per
SOna!- those used principally in
the homes: 90 industrial and
commercial those used chiefly in
industrial and commercial activi-
ties; "a general those used or
farms. in homes and in industry.
Commodities used principally in
farm production showed tho
greatest gain and advance OF
1862 per cent in poundage over
the two year period. The next
most important gain was in COM
moditieS used chiefly in the home
"a gain of 977 per cent.
The smallest percentage of in
crease came in the commodities
used generally on farms. in homes
and in industry, q gain of 81 per
cent.
Manufactured commodities
shipments which registered ad-
vanCcS during the two year period
included: sewing machines. 1903
per cent gain; scales and parts
SPOT per cent; farm implements
and machinery 309.3 per cent: au-
tomobilcs 219.9 per cent: steel
fence posts, 1878 per cent: tools
and equipment, 218.9 per cent:
road machinery 1914 per cent.

RST place in the District
League is still the property Of
Washington Brewery's mauling
Il gang today as result of their
two-game victory over Occidental
Restaurant last night at Convention
Hall but their renowned anchor
shooter, Ollie Pacini, was tossed out
of his high average seat by Astor
Clarke
Clarke assumed the leadership of
the all-star circuit for the first time
in his notable career with record
average of 1878 for q games. 1t
was a sought goal.
WHILE the Occidentals were prov
ing no match for the Brewery
outfit in the first two skirmishes.
Clarke kept hammering away at the
naples to overtake Pacini. After
gaining the lead by 10 pins in the
first tussle, Clarke entered the final
game three sticks behind Pacini when
the Northeast Temple ace fought
back with 14l to Clarke's 1913. A
double-header strike sent Clarke out
in front in the last skirmish to finish
with l49 for a 394 set, while Pacini
split through for tough 104 and 352.
Rose Liquor Store had its hands full
defeating Georgetown Recreation by
81 decision to keep pace with Wash
ington Brewery. AS a matter of fact,
they were quite lucky to win a game,
particularly the last. On flyback,
Henry May converted a split into
single-pin break and counted nine pins
to carry on a last-frame rally started
by Johnny Anderson. Joe Freschi and

counts to nip the West Enders, CAB

FORANOTHERY YEAR
Points to Promising Young
PIayers-May Use Doerr
at Second Base.
BY JOHN LARDNER.

N YEW YORK, November 20.-
N Uncle Tom Yawkey. the dealer
" in secondhand ivory, is back
a from a hunting trip, in the
course of which he heckled every elk
and antelope south of Yellowstone.
And believe it or not, Uncle Tom says
that he likes the Boston Red Sox for
1887. People were beginning to think
that nobody liked the Red Sox but
their mothers.
Mr.. Yawkey says that he will spend
no more cash on the Red Sox, because
he likes them as they stand. Maybe
stand" is not the right word. The
last any one saw of the Red Sox as
group they were very horizontal. But
Mr.. Yawkey likes them as they stand,
all the same, and he refuses to dig
down in his pockets to help or i'm
prove them any further, even though
those traders out in Wyoming offered
him a couple of antelopes for 100000
and an elk that plays second base like
Lajoie.
II don't say the club is perfect"
admits Mr.. Yawkey. I'll make a
trade if I see my way clear to good
one. But I'm not going to buy any
more high-priced ball players, because
I think we have a pretty good team
right now and lot of nice youngsters
coming up"
In response to the challenge, Name
three" Mr.. Yawkey proceeds to name
half dozen.

Mike Jacobs, whe- will co-promote
the proposed l2-round no-decision
fight with Herman Taylor of Phila-
delphia and possibly Madison Square
Garden, if it strings along, voiced that
conviction today as he pushed ahead
with efforts to iron out details still in
the way.
Such a match would have Max
Schmeling meeting the winner of the
shore city clash, Jacobs explained. II
Louis should knock out Braddock. he
would be paired for a return go with
the German heavyweight, who belted
him out in II rounds this year.

This has been the best year Eastern
foot ball has known for a decade. 1t

and with outstanding stars. 1t hasn't
come back to the old days when Har-
ward, Yale and Princeton ruled the

part of four weeks in the Middle
West and taking brief peek at other
sections, it has come back to a swarm
of strong teams that, in general in
tersectional strength, take the lead.
The East was due, for intersectional
leadership swings back and forth.
And the East, tagging for some time,
Is now riding the front horse. The

IF BRADDOCK finishes convincingly
in front of the Detroit Brown
Bomber, fight between the champion
and his already designated No. l
challenger would draw far larger

Jacobs explained all this as he
rushed to a conference with Taylor,
whose s3O0.o guarantee to Braddock
started the whole thing, and Joe Gould,
the champions manager, to tell them
how Madison Square Garden stands
on the bout.
The Garden has Braddock under

Ferrell Affair Cleaned Up.

WHAT more can you expect of a
w fellow than Jimmy gave us this
last season? He hit around $40, was
right up at the top at driving in
runs and knocked plenty of them out
OF the park. We used him in the
outf1eld toward the close of the year
only because we wanted to give Babe
Dahlgren final test at first base.
Foxx will be our first baseman next
year and hope he keeps punching
as good as he punched in 1886"
Mr.. Yawkey has another problem
child on his club, Mr.. Wesley Fer
rell, and he gives Wesley a fairly
clean bill of health.
The trouble he had with Cronin, -
says Thomas the spender, sis all
cleaned up. We're sending Yves a
check for that $1,000 we fined him
for walking out of a game. The fine
doesn't go. We talked it over with
Yves and he saw Cronin's point and
promised to be good AS matter of
fact, he won three games out of four
for us after the fine-and-suspension
episode. I'm looking forward to a
good year for Wesley.
In fact concludes Mr.. Yawkey
SIN looking forward to a good year
for the whole club. Well be up there
near the top, making trouble"
Mr.. Yawkey's decision not to butter
any more wafies-to abstain, in other
words, from laying down large sums
Of cash for seasoned ivory-will come
as blow to the Connie Macks of this
world, the gentlemen who have been
paying their income tax out of Uncle
Toms wallet. Mack got his share
and the other moguls were sort OF
warming up for crack at the Yawkey
checking account themselves. They
figured that Tom would make very
sporty hunting in December, with a
fountain pen at 10 PAGES.
Privately, I do not think Mr.
Yawkey's ball team is going to be
much better than a fourth-place af-
fair next season, what with the White
Sox and the Senators coming or
strong, but there is good deal oi
wisdom in the idea of coasting along
for at least year without further
cash expenditures. Ball teams take
time to mold. AS long as Mr. Yawkey
kept buying new stars every Winter
his manager had to start making the
club over every Spring.

Sees Doerr as Fine Prospect.

"T"HIS young Doerr from Hollywood, y
he says, has the makings of a
fine second baseman. I think you'll
see him starting the season at second
base for us, between Jimmy FoxX and
Eric McNair Joe Cronin will play
third base Joe says that's where he
belongs, and Joe should know. If
Doerr comes through as we think he
will, it'll be nice infield-Foxx at
first, the kid at second, McNair at
short and Cronin at third. Doerr is
only 10 years old.
"I expect Buster Mills, another
rookie, will start in the outfield. Yes,
know he's been up before, but they
tell me he has learned to hit curve
ball pitching, and that's the only
weakness he had When he hits a
ball, Mills hits it. If Doc Cramer
only plays up to par-he had bad
year this year-our outfield will be
the end of the season, but that was
too late.
Our main weakness was pitching,
and I'll trade for a pitcher if I can
get one, but I like our youngsters.
Jack Wilson is particularly promising.
Jim Henry is good bet, too. The
big question mark is Johnny Marcum.
He had sore arm this year. but
you know as well as do that Marcum
is a first-rate pitcher If he gets
off to a good start, the pitching prob
lem is solved.

further trial In the outfield. There's
nothing wrong with Bill. Plenty of
folks in this league will tell you that.
Once he gets the hang of playing
out there in the orchard he'll be
really valuable"

The Coming Dispute.


THIS statement will be disputed all
over the map. But as one who
doesn't give a rap what section hap
pens to be in the lead for the year at
hand, the raw facts in the case stand
up.
For example, take Pittsburgh. Ber-
ME Bierman at least limited that
Nebraska was team he had no hank
ering to meet again. Yet Pittsburgh
crushed Nebraska. Pittsburgh, beat
ing Notre Dame, rs to o, has had its
only trouble in the East against
Duquesne and Fordham. When you
take the popular move, intersection
ally, the idea is to sock the East and
boost the others.
But 1t takes much better
