BROOKLYN CUTS DOWN CUB LEAD
 TO .OO7 POINTS
Dodgers Defeat Leaders Twice; Hubbell Humbles
 Dean and Cards
By LESLIE AVERY

United Press Stan CorrspOndent)
 New York, June 20-(UP)-The National league pennant race was tied up tighter than a shailor's knot today by virtue of the leading Chi- cago Cubs surprise double-header defeat by Brooklyn, and Carl Hub- bells brilliant return to form in pitching the New York Giants to an easy victory over Dizzy Dean of the second-place St. Louis Cardi- nals.
 These results left the Cubs pacing the race with a percentage of 500; the Cardinals second with .593, and the Giants third with .590. Only half a game separated the third place New Workers from the top rung Cubs.
 Nifty
 It was an historic event when Burleigh Grimes Dodgers downed Chicago twice yesterday in the Cubs home park. Van Mungo breezed to an 8-3 decision in the first game, and Luke Hamlin yielded only three hits in the disconcerting night cap victory, 6-3.
 Over at St. Louis, Hubbell per- formed before an overflow crowd of 38,719 fans and limited the Cardi- nals to six scattered hits, while his comrads clouted Dizzy Dean for 10 hits and six runs and brought Ray Harrell out of the bull pen in the seventh. This onslaught on Dean was led by Mel Ott's 18th and 18th homers. Ancient Jesse Haines entered the game for the Cards to finish the ninth. The score was 8-1.
 Meanwhile, Pittsburgh remained in fourth place by beating the Phil- lies, A3, assisted by home runs from Arky Vaughan and Al Todd. The Boston Bees showed discon- tent with the cllar by downing the Cincinnati Reds twice, 8-2 and 10-.
 Yanks Again
 In the American league, the New York Yankees advanced to a four- game lead, while Chicago's White Sox replaced Detroit in second place. The Yanks garnered IF hits of three Detroit hurlers to beat the Tigers, 9-5. Selkirk led the attack with four hits in five tries, includ- ing his 18th homer which tied him with Hank Greenberg for four bagger honors.
 Steady pitching by Ted Lyons en- abled the White Sox to down Wash ington, 5-3.
 The fourth-place Boston Red Sox took both ends of 8 double header from St. Louis, 90, behind Jack Wilson's six-hit fiinging, and 11-7, in the second after getting off to 10 run lead in thefl rst four frames. Cleveland and Philadel- phia Athletics split 8 twin bill. The Athletics won the openenr 10-O, behind George Casters four-l1it pitching, but the Indians took the second contest, "a, when Willis Hudlin held the As to six hits.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. - Com mercial Washington is crying for a special session of Congress.
 You'd think the place had suf- fered enough, what with an eight month session that left the politic- al part of the city jumpy and shell shocked. But 531 Congress men with $10,000-a-year incomes make a nice buying public. Take any city in the country and sud- denly snatch out 53l of its $l0,000- a-year men and you will under stand how Washington feels about it.
 Moreover, the members of Con- gress are not the only public spend- CTS who desert Washington inn mediately after the gavel falls. Each House member is allowed $5,000 a year for clerical hire, which means at least two clerks each. Top pay fixed by law at $500. Senators are allowed $12,00o a year for clerks which must be split among five, with $3 300 to the head clerk.
 
 Besides that, if member is chair man of a committee, he usually is one or more extra clerks. All in all, it runs up to about 1900
  is no secret that the female clerks are missed most sorely along the front.
 These little girls do take on a commercial glow when they hit the big city-and Washington shops fatten on it. The uncoiffeured tress- es on Capitol Hill at any given moment could be wrapped around

They worked inside and out side the Nazi organizations and wrote that the organizations clothed members in uniforms strangely suggestive of those worn by Hitlers storm troops"
 They said the organizations are relatively small but rapidly grow ing and that they awaited Der Tag when plans to seize control of the United States" will be culmin- ated.

ART FOR ARTS SAKE AND ALSO
 PUERTO RICO
Kuskokwim Natives Put on Spot On New Post
 Office Building

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The pug zling inscription which Rockwell Kent wrote into the mural on the new Post Office Building in Wash ington was disclosed by the artist today as an appeal to the people of Puerto Rico to throw off Am erican rule.
 These words in the Kuskokwim dialect of the natives of western Alaska appear in the mural.
 Puerto Rico minuniera ilaptium- uni ke ha chimeulakut angayora- acut anna kitchimmi ttu m m chuli wapticum itti leoraatic ut"
 The mural depicts delivery of air mail to Puerto Rico and is translated by Vilhjalmur Stefans- son, the Arctic explorer, to mean:
 ITO the people of Puerto Rico, our friends. Go ahead and let us change chiefs. That alone can make us equals and free"
 While the artist agreed with Stefansson on the translation he could see no reason to be disturbed about it.
 1T wanted that message to be something more important than gossip. I wanted the people of Alaska, having heard the move ment for independence in Alaska in full swing, to wish them God speed in their aspirations. I have not urged armed revolt. Far from it."
