Third Victory

Nv GARRETT WATERS

The first interhlgh series game
of 1887 for another team is on
the scholastic slate today when
Eastern Highs nine tackles Tech
High at the Eastern Stadium, at
$3.50 p. m.
The contest is the third of the
series. Tech beat Woodrow vii
son. Ii to 10, and western
trounced Central, 10 to 2, in Tues
DAYS openers. Today, Eastern
hopes to be as successful in its
debut.
The Parkers have the promise

fielders. round out an experienced
array that may carry the team
over all Jumps expected before the
series is over.
Figured to Win
Eastern was figured to win the
championship last year. But the
pitching and defense begged and
western became the first team to
enter the title fight after three
years of Eastern monopoly.
This season the Parkers will not
have all that pressure to with
stand. Because of this their play
should be a great deal stronger,
meaning that both the pitching
and defense which failed in the
1895 series. will have that chance
Of functioning to better advan'
tage.
Both Lefty Stockwell and Rip
Carver are ready for mound duty
today. Coach Chief Guyon may
elect to use Stockwell at first base,
because of the lads value as a
hitter. Even then, he'll have the
youngster available should Carver
run into trouble.
Good Start
In Techs behalf, the Trainers
will be out to add another victory
to their list. The boys got off to
an suspicious start Tuesday by
triumphing over woodrow Wilson.
And the hammer in which they
snatched the game out of the fire
In the late moments boosted their
stock considerably.
It will be remembered Coach
Rusty Thompson's charges went
into the ninth inning of that
contest trailing woodrow Wilson
by 10-to-4. But they landed on
Kilmer Bortz, the Wilson's star
hurler, and tied the count. Then
in the tenth they won off Bill
Garland, relief hurler, when Roy
Memerise walked and Buddy
Webb whacked a long double to
left center.
Webb, because Of his fine effort
in a relief role, will in all prob
ability, get the starting assign
ment today for Tech. The lad
retired the wilson's in alright
order Tuesday after relieving

ninth.

Hutchinson gave a fine demon.

for WaShington's first earned run.

CAIRNS tore the cover almost of
the ball in the fifth inning, but
Kuhel fielded the ball with his
glove. Weaver covered the bag,
but Kuhel's throw was high, and
he was charged with an error.
Weaver DETECTED a grounder by
Perrin to Travis. "Ole Trips"
f1elded the leather smartly, but
too late for a putout at first. If
Monte had not obeyed the impulse
to grab the ball, Travis would
have made an easy putout.

TALK
M|N|M|ZED IN
IMPORTANCE
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES
international News Service

Administration officials, from
President Roosevelt down, simply
laughed away today the ponderous
Interpretations" which Europe
especially the French-put upon
the Washington Birthday speech
which Ambassador William c.
Bullitt made in Paris.
Bullitt said the United states
was anxious to stay out Of any ~.
ture wars, and that to this end
was ready to forward disarnla-
ment and increased foreign trade
movements, wherever and when
ever possible, in the belief that
by so doing world peace would be
encouraged.
The ambassadors speech was
considered here a rather nnocu-
Gus reaffirmation Of President
Roosevelt's peace speech at Cnau-
tauqua during the campaign.
Reaction AmuSeS u. 5.
Administration officials were
first amazed and then amused at
the far-fetched interpretations
which the Partisan press immedi-
ately put upon the ambassadors
remarks.
"Pertinax," one Of Frances
most famous interpreters of events,
even went so far as to write that
the speech was considered so i'm
portant that it was read over the
transatlantic telephone to Presl-
dent Roosevelt before delivery.
This has been denied.
The over-emphasis placed upon
the speech in Europe was regarded
here as merely Symptomatic OF
Europe's intense desire to drag the
United States into some form OF
participation or involvement IN
world affairs.
johnson Act Felt
The truth of the matter, as
viewed here, is that the Johnson
act is beginning to pinch harder
and harder as Europe spends more
on armament and preparation for
"the next war" The Johnson act
closed the American money market
to all countries in default of their
obligations to the United States.
This includes virtually all of
Europe save the Scandinavian
countries.
The economic plight of Germany
is considered here to be little short
of desperate. France is somewhat
better off, but economically I'M
stable. The French recently bor-
rowed 100000 from the Brit
ish treasury, which was none too
anxious to make the loan. Britain
herself is embarking upon a five
year rearmament program that is
to cost $500, 100000. Italy's Ethio-
plan venture has left her broke.
Spain is engaged in bloody civil
war. Between them, these coun-
tries owe the United States ap-
proximately $4,000, 100000 in de-
faulted obligations.
Recently there have been "feel-
erS'' put out concerning new eff.
forts to arrive at a debt settlement,
which is considered further proof
that the johnson act is pinching
harder and harder. The American
response to these "feelerS" has
been in effect: Make us an Of
fer"
No offers, however, have been
made.

O. Should young man, engaged to be married, resent it if the girls father asks him questions pertaining to his financial affairs, business po- sition, and health?
 A. No. The father has a perfect right to be concerned about every thing that might affect the happi- ness of his daughter Q. Is it discourteous when talk ing with a person, for this person to show a lack of interest in what is being said?
 A. Yes. This is one of the most frequent acts of discourtesy. To be la good listener is one of the surest ways to gain friends, and is just as important as to be good speaker
 Q When a woman. and her es- cort enter theatre, anu an usher is at the entrance of thea aisle, which one should Joe first to. follow the usher? M

INDUSTRIAL PEACE LOOMS

Postponement of the Southern Pacific railroad strike and reports of peace parleys and settlement other troubled industrial fronts tends to brighten the business and labor picture throughout the land
 It has been estimated that strikes during the month of January of this year cost American industry two and half million man-days of labor Disputes during February and March have pushed that figure much higher. It is easy to that such basis the actual loss business and workers alike has been terrific
 But while employer and employee have suffered during industrial troubles there is to be- lieve now that proper legislation be enacted toward bringing end to such general setbacks The Railroad Act recently upheld by the Supreme Court has been brought into play in the Southern Pacific controversy.

A Permanent eco
(New York Times)

(NeW York IlmeSD
 The Civilian Conservation Corps has been the least criticized and perhaps the most popular of all the New Deal measures. The Presidents proposal that it now be made into a permanent agency is therefore likely receive very favorable reception Congress No has urged that it be allowed to expire But the proposal of a permanent CCC raises certain questions which call for careful thought
 The CCC was established by Congress at the Presi- dents request in March 1883 He urged that it be used in simple worK, not interfering with normal em ployment. and confning itself to forestry, the pre- vention of soil erosion flood control and similar pro- jects The original measure provided for life for the agency of two years In 1885 Congress renewed the measure for another two years. Under present law, it will expire June 30.
 There have been really three separate aims in the CCC: CD Relief, C2) body and character building, and t3) conservation. In the beginning relief was the most important consideration and conservation was rather incidental But this army enlisted against nature William James would have called it, has done its work well; its forestry and flood control work have been of the highest value and the young men enlisted have not only been put to useful work but have received educational opportunities that would otherwise never have been available to them.
 The results achieved certainly warrant the tension Of the CCC by Congress for at least another two years. There would be sound for fining ourselves for the present to such temporary extension. The CCC is part of our relief program and the program in its totaty is of huge dimen- sions. To declare the CCC permanent might encourage WPA and other emergency organizations argue that their organizations also should be made permanent The cost of the CCC has not been negli- gble In the fiscal year ended June 30 last it was S486 100000, which greater than that of either the army the navy The President recommends its reduction permanent agency from the present personnel of about 350,000 to of about 300,000 which it has been estimated, would cost about $330 00o o0o annually II
 Two years from now when have acquired more experience, and when general relief pros gram is, let us hope, considerably smaller, it should be possible to separate clearly the need of the eco as relief agency and the question of whether 1t is the most economical and efficient manner of carrying on conservation work. If, however, the CCC is to be made permanent immediately it should at least be made clear that what is being established permanently is administrative framework and not any fixed personnel The organization should be able to release men in periods of growing employment and to take them on again in times of tagging em- poyment And all positions in the permanent agency should, Robert Fechner, the present director has suggested, be placed under the merit system
