Communism must at all costs be pre-
vented
And the good people Of the world
said, War is the worst evil. At all
costs it should be prevented. 1t can't
happen here
And that" said the Grouse, brings
us down to the morning papers, to
the speech Of Mr.. Chamberlain, and
to the article of Mr.. Farinacci. BY
perfectly logical process, the events
which started in Manchuria are now
gathered up in a cyclone to shake the
world. A little while ago few people,
in countries that don't want war, were
saying, War is evitable real, large
scale, world war, unless we insist right
now. right this minute, that agree
ments mean what they say. It's bet
ter to risk a small war right now for
the sake Of agreements, than big
war which will surely come II this
process Of breaking treaties is allowed
to 20 on
But most people in those coun-
tries that don't want war said: Keep
cool. Watch and wait
And now It's the other side which
is saying. Better risk war right now
than wait until the people we shall
have to hght are armed For now
| we are strong; We have taken posi-
ton after position. but there is a
limit to human patience and so let's
strike before that limit has been
reached That Is the sense Of Fari-
nacci's article.
Domestic Like International Affairs.
Il suppose you know what to do?
I suppose you would be willing to
risk war now?"
The point where war could be
| risked has, I fear, passed. 1t was
| passed long ago But that is not
what the moral is for US.
| The moral for us is that domestic
affairs proceed just as international
affairs do. If they are going to be
governed by law. then the time to

BOLTON, STILL ILL,
HAS SNATSONSPOT
Catching Apt to Depend on
Hogan Only With Cliff
Unable to Report.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

~ RLANDO, Fla. February 40
There may be no Cliff Boil
u ton-Shanty Hogan battle for
the regular Washington
catching job after all.
This was the specter which reared
an unwelcome head in the training
camp headquarters Of the Senators
today. Hogan, the fat man who once
ate himself out Of the National League,
may win the post by default. Bolton
may not be in camp at all.
President Clark Griffith finally has
corresponded with Bolton, marking the
first exchange of words, verbal or
written, since Cliff claimed illness last
September, and to quote Grif1th,
Jumped the club" Bolton has agreed
to terms, Griffith has admitted, but
he returned his contract unsigned and
with brief explanation that he feels
no better now than he did when he
went A. w. o. L. last year.
There even was a suggestion Of vol
untary retirement from Bolton and
there is much ado among the ofncial
ranks of the Washington ball club.
"Not Very Communicative'-G
lCRIFFTTH has sent two messages
to Bolton, asking about his health.
HE is not very communicative" said
the Senators boss man. "I demanded
both times to know if he had his ton
sils removed as per instructions. Both
times he wrote back, repeated that he
did not feel well, but refused to COM
ment on his tonsils or any other spe-
cific thing"
Griffth's worry is thinly veiled
Bolton is no great catcher but. after
all, he is a catcher and Washington
needs that particular species Of ball
player. Right now plans call for Sec
retary Edward B. Eynon, jr., to visit
Bolton at his High Point, N. c., home
and lure him, post haste, either to
Washington or to Orlando for q
thorough physical examination.
Meanwhile, nothing has been heard
| from Hogan, who was Grated and
shipped, in several sections, to Hot
Springs, Ark, not long ago. shanty

Rookie Outfielders Promising.


CAMMY HALE, who prefers third
base. again will be moved to Sec
ond base this season when the In
dians move into camp with probably
the smallest collection Of infielders
and outfielders of any major league
team. There are only flve of each
species and all will be retained.
Hale's moving to second probably
will mean that Roy Hughes will start
at third base, unless a trade for a
third baseman is made. It is doubted
by some If Hughes arm Is strong
enough for q third baseman.
Hal Trosky, of course, will
play first base and Larry will
hold down short. This, then,
will leave Bozie Berger rs the
only utility infielder.
Included in the Cleveland hy-chas-
ing corps are two Of the most prom
ising rockies in the league. Roy
Weatherly, who batted 1876 for 81
games last season, is one, and the other
is John Heath, up from GAINESVILLE OF
the Mid-Atlantic League. There he
swatted for a 1888 figure, playing l49
games, but he does not seem to be
much of a fielder.
Solters, the big run-batter-i liner from
the Browns, probably will play left
field and Earl Averill, naturally. will
retain his center-field assignment
which is certain to be well handled
regardless Of which Of the trio wins
out.
On the whole, however, Cleve-
land doesn't seem 10 be serious

There doesn't seem to be enough
