Rejects Many Offers

Rejects Many Offers
DABE, with his happy family
- around him, is worth $500, 600,
practically all of which is tied up
in annuities. Babe earned a million
in baseball salaries alone, not to
mention the by-products. The an
nuities make it possible for him to
live like an imperial potentate,
which he does. Royalties on wear
ing apparel and whatnot, broadcasts,
and writings bring in handsome
returns.
The English want him to teach
baseball over there, and he has a
similar offer from Japan. He can
open cafe or store on other peo-
pies money whenever he cares to.
He rejects one proposition after an
other to go on tour For the time
being he has put everything of
until 1887.
yes. I'd still like to manage a
major league ball club, but baseball
seems to have made up its mind
that it can get along without me-"
says Ruth. so I guess I'll have to
struggle along without baseball

Yankees His Club

ID UTH left one Of the wealChiest
IN organizations in the business
for broken outfit, and again was
disappointed. But he is the type
that gets over disappointments.
"Baseball's all right" he laughs.
"It's the owners in it."
Ruth still regards the Yankees
as his ball club. And he's going to
St. Petersburg, where he oiled up
the most potent swing in the an
mails of the sport each spring since
he joined the Yankees II years ago.
I'm going to fish, golf, park my
self on those green benches with
the rest of the old folks, and watch
the Yankees and Braves" declares
Babe.
Everybody is more excited about
what Ruth is going to do than the
BAN himself Ruth is the least
worried unemployed man in Ameri-
ca, and why shouldn't he be?

Felt Entitled To It

THERE is no real bitterness ir
Il Ruth's heart. Babe was keenly
disappointed at being unable tt
land a managerial appointment
The BAN rightfully felt that he
was entitled to the opportunity. Col
Jacob Rupert placed Bob Shawkey
at the helm of the Yankees, yet re-
fused the man who made possible
the erection of the tremendous
Yankee Stadium the same chance
Ruth asserts that the Yankees
quit him, and that it was not a case
of his quitting the Yankees when
he made the mistake of going to the
Boston Braves last spring.

Makes Surprise Move

COLONEL RUPERT paid Ruth
~ $4,000 in 1884, after which the
daddy of all long distance hitters
agreed that his spindly legs could
no longer carry his huge body
through regular assignments. Dur
ing the World Series that fall Babe
announced that it was a pilots po-
sition or nothing in 1885, but prac-
tically everybody suspected he would
remain with the outfit he made as
sort of show window.
There was genuine surprise there
fore when Ruth signed a three year
parchment with the Boston Braves
at $4,000. Babes ambition to be
an executive was satisfied when he
was made vice president.
1.-The fact that I accepted $4,000
less from Judge Emil Fuchs is evil
dence of my willingness to stand a
cut by the Yankees" explains the
BAN. 81 had good reason to believe
that I would not be offered con-
tract"

Economists Figures Show
Washingtonians Enjoy
Greater WeII-Being.

Washingtonians are more prosper
Gus of an average than their fellow
citizens in other parts Of the United
States, according to study by DR..
Irwin Bussing, economist.
DR.. Bussing's findings, published
yesterday by the Columbia University
Press, show Washington leading in
percentage Of income tax returns filed,
radio sets and pleasure cars. and in
numbers gainfully employed.
A survey of department store sales,
telephone usage, savings deposits and
other economic factors tended to cor
roborate DR.. Bussing's conclusion
that the citizens Of Washington en-
JOY a higher level Of economic we'll
being on the average than do citizens
of other communities"
He pointed out "the population Of
the District Of Columbia Is insulated
to a degree from some Of the tribu-
lations Of economic depression, due no
doubt to the presence Of the Govern
ment as an employer"
Tax Returns Cited.
A considerably larger proportion OF
Washingtonians file income tax re-
turns than Is true of the urban popu-
Iation of the United States, DR.. Buss-
ing points out. In 1929 the percent
age of population filing income tax
returns in Washington was 9.88, while
for the country as whole 1t was GOT.
In 1882 the percentage for the Nation
was 5.26 and for Washington, 14.9l.
This indicates a decrease of 13
per cent between the two years IN
the Nation and an increase of 81 per
cent in Washington, before the sweep
ing changes in personnel Of the Fed
eral Government were introduced by
President Roosevelt" DR.. Bussing
comments.
The average net income per return
declined 81 per cent in the Nation

The editor swore out q warrant

ZOOS are even more rare. as they do not
often live to maturity in captivity.
The fact that these were born in
captivity may be factor in their IA

foot long and about a month old.
Both species are extremely VEN
omous, with fangs Of the "hypodermic'
type, similar to those OF the rattle
snake, to which they are distantly re-
lated. The fsngs ordinarily lie along
the upper part of the mouth, but un-
fold downward when the reptile strikes.
The puff adder is about 2 feet long
when full grown and is mottled gray
in color. The gabo-n viper is a little
larger than the puff adder and Is
covered with reddish brown and white
diamond shaped markings.
