IT LOOKS as if Buddy Lewis. the

Simmons Is Good Buy.

RICK FERRELL has batted below
par since he joined the Griffmen,
but in view Of Almada's feats this is
not important. Almada has done
everything that Chapman did this
season for Washington only better.
He has fielded in better style and his
30l batting average is nothing to over
look. Mel has held Chappie at least
even since the trade, which leaves
Griff with the pleasant thought that
whatever Rick Ferrell does is gravy
And Rick, if he has not been hitting,
at least has furnished the Washington
club with brand of catching it has
not known since the Old Fox, during

That clears up the trades.

Griff Shows Financial Gain.

IN SELLING ball players Griffith has
shown a profit He sold Salveson
for six grand so they say and he
got the waiver price of $500 FOR jess
Hill when he was dispatched to tho
Athletics.
Joe Cascarella. who was tossed into
deal last year, when Washington sent
Jack Russell to Boston for cash. was
sold to the Cincinnati Reds for $1,000.
1t is reported from reliable sources
that Griffith could have sold him 70
Syracuse for SO 900, but that he took .
$4,000 licking because he liked Casca-
rella and wanted to help him stay in
the big show. SkeptiCs think. however,
that Cincinnati bought Cascarella only
to sell to Syracuse later and pocket the
difference in price.
In June Mr.. G.. paid out
$500 to claim Carl Fischer on
waivers from the Indians. Fis-
cher went sour for the Mats, but
Griffith lost no money. Recently
he sold him to Baltimore for
$4,000, checking off . $4,000
profit.
Thus, in buying and selling, the O.
gentleman has done all right. He
got $4,000 for Salveson (and unloaded
Whitehills contract, $500 for Hill,
SIS 900 for Cascarella and cleared 81
500 on Fischer for a total of s2l .ooo
All he paid out was $500 for SIM

One Of Gomez wins was by shutout,
too Whitehill and Jake Wade OF the
Tigers won the other games. Lefty

AS gained the ties.
With six regulars in the lineup

garded at the start Of the season as
fair prey for the American League

the critics. A commanding lead over
left-handers was built up. only to be
lost as a result OF those seven straight
defeats. Today the Mats record
against portside pitchers is IS games

In addition to those already named
Russ Van Alta of the Browns, Archie

Lee Never Threatened.
THE Gr1f1s never really threatened
Lee yesterday. In the first four
innings they made all five Of their
hits. but all except one came after two
were out. In the last four innings
Lee faced only l3 batters. The odd
one was Joe Kuhel who walked with
two down In the sixth inning. It was
Lees second win over the Mats this

Yves Ferrell lost another heart
breaker. Yves pitched a grand game
giving up only eight hits. but in the
fifth inning the Chisox punched dou-

scored both Of the games runs.

The gasoline TINT was discovered
by DR.. Aristide Won Crosse of the
Universal Oil Products Co., Chicago,
and described by DR.. Gustav Eglof of
that company.
DR.. Egloff said no other country
knows how to convert its gas" into
this high explosive. Although the
chemists were told the precise changes
made in gasoline to get TINT, the
"catalyst" that does it is secret. The
catalyst is a chemical, different from
gasoline, which when mixed with gas

COTTON SABOTAGE
Senator Says Federal The

by I1e Associated Press.
JASPER. Ala, September 7.-Gov-
ernment theorists" were charged by
Senator Bankhead, Democrat, of Ala
bama yesterday with a deliberate ef-
fort" to lower cotton prices as
Southern farm groups sought way to
bolster growers returns from the sta
pie.
Bankhead, disappointed that the
Federal price-pegging plan did not
offer loans Of 10 cents a pound on
cotton and that adjustment payments
will be made only on 65 per cent of
base production, urged farmers to put
their cotton in holding pool financed
by the Government 9-cent loans to
await better prices.
THE loan plan," he charged, was
worked out by departmental theorists
to accomplish two definite detectives:
First, to reduce the price so as to
bring about larger exports of cotton;
second, to make the loan so unat-
tractive that few farmers would put
cotton under a Government loan"
Aim to Increase Income.
A spokesman for Secretary of Agri-
culture Wallace in Washington replied
With the assertion that the sole pur-
pose OF the loan-subsidy program was
