Detroit Victory
Disputed

CHICAGO, June 81. "A minor
rebellion is flaring up among the
members of the Washington base
ball club who are displeased with
their present hotel accommoda-
tions here.
It seems that the Mats, who
have been steady guests of the
present hostelry for the past sew
eral years, switched hotels their
last trip here, the outgrowth OF
some labor dispute.
That caused the trouble.
The Mats liked the change, for
the last trip here they put up in
a more de luxe establishment
which flanks the lake and is
equipped with tennis courts, so
larium, capacious porches and hot
and cold folding doors. But when
the team arrived here yesterday
morning they were herded back to
their former stopping-off place.
SHARP NOTE
During the winter the Mats cur
rent hostelry became involved in
a labor dispute. One of the en-
ployes, set upon by strike breakers,
was killed. A sharp note was sent
to Clark Griffith in Washington,
demanding that he boycott his
Chicago hotel, or else suffer a.
union boycott in Washington.
So Griffith, who doesn't care
about losing customers, promptly
ordered the team to another hotel
which was ali right with the
team. They liked the new hotel
and we're glad for the change. But
today they we're returned to the
former headquarters. Now the
players, who art pretty much sub
servient to the ball clubs wishes,
are walking around with long
faces.
Although 1t has been rather
definitely established that the
Mats defeated the Detroit Tigers
Sunday by a score Of 10 to 6,
they're still trying to figure out
who won the game-Pete Appleton
or Ken Chase.
The victory was awarded to
Chase by the Detroit official scor-
er, even though Chase worked no
more than four innings. He was
withdrawn in the fifth with two
on and nobody out, Appleton tax
ing his place. Chase was wild and
ineffective.
The scoring instructions in the
American League rule book says:
do not always give the first
pitcher credit for a game won,
even if the score is in his favor,
unless he has pitched at least five
innings.

cause of his team having secured

Baer 'Takes" Louis
In Ten Rounds

NEW YORK, June 81 G.N.S0.
Joe Louis by a knockout in 10
rounds was Max Baer's prediction
today as he visualized a Septem-
Der fight with the champion be-
cause he wants to be "the first
man to regain the title"
Ancil Holman, Baer's manager,
subscribed to Max'S forecast OF
the Louis-Schmeling fight result,
explaining he and Baer are going
to discuss with the State boxing
commission Max's chanceS of
meeting the winner in a title bout
in September.
The Washington times., 1938-06-21

You may wonder why Scotch
bandages would put handicap
on me. For some reason I have
a specially long thumb. I don't
know why, since I never did
much hitch-hiking as kid, but
it just happened that way and
it takes more bandageS to pro-
tect that thumb from getting
hurt.
Two years of training and
conditioning for Schmeling re
over and I am ready for the
hardest fight of my life. I say
two years, because there has
been nothing on my mind but
revenge since Max banged my
Jaw in June, 1886. Every fight
after that was like a sparring
match and I would use it to
make ready for the time I fin
ally got back into the ring with
Schmeling.
Blackburn had me change my

Chappie, you leave the Frm

were victims of this new upper
jab.
Jimmy Braddock brought the
fighting to me and he brought
plenty when we met a year ago
tomorrow, but that Upper jab
kept his head bobbing until I
crossed a right and dressed him
up in the eighth round.
WORK INSIDE
Against Schmeling that ma
chine-gun left jab won't do the
trick so well because Max leans
back and draws away from jabs.
But 1 will use the Upper punch
to work inside without leaving
myself open, then keep firing at
close range.
This will make my fourth de-
tense of the crown in exactly a
years time, which, I believe, is
some kind of a record. And
that's the way I want to keep
right on fighting. I couldn't
have any fun sitting on the
throne, and when the time
comes, If it does, that I run COM
pletely out of opponents, why
I'll be ready to quit for keeps.
Right now, though, with such
promising youngsters as Jimmy
Adamick and Gunnar Barlund
and with Max Baer coming
back, I expect to keep busy de-
Tending the old crown for a
number of years.

program.
Republicans have been encouraged
by polls taken here and there show
ing the G. O. P. candidates in the
lead. For example. at the Eskridge
Farm Fair, poll showed 228 for Reed
and Ill for McGill, 276 for Rather
and SO for Huxman The Hutchinson
News-Herald conducted a poll in the
7th congressional district, the West
ern and wheat farming area. 1t
resulted in 5,288 votes for Rather and
1921 for Huxman and 454 for Davis
in the gubernatorial race. In the SEN
atorial race the poll showed 5,1O7 for
Reed and 4,l64 for McGill. Hope, Re-
publican candidate for reelection to
the House. received $500 votes to 3.l68
for Main, his Democratic opponent.
In 1886 President Roosevelt carried
this district by nearly $4,000 votes and
Huxman by 10000.
The Republicans now have five out
OF seven congressional districts They
hope to pick up the third, held by the
Democrats. but it is only chance.
The Democrats, on the other hand,
claim they have a chance to take the
lst district, represented by Lambert
son, Republican. The chances are
the congressional delegation will re-
main the same politically.

Henry j. Allen, when the latter was
Governor, and was himself elected
Governor in 1928. The old line Re-
publicans in Kansas have no love for
Reed, but this year they are support
ing him 100 per cent.
The New Deal administration is
putting on a real campaign in Kan
sas and still hopes to win. Secretary
Wallace already has invaded the State,
Secretary Woodring, former Governor
of Kansas; Senator Barkley OF Ken
lucky. Democratic leader of the Sen
ate, and Senator Hatch of New Mexico
have either spoken or will speak for
the ticket. The leaders claim they
will reelected Governor Huxman by
10000 votes and Senator McGill by
$4,000. They give Huxman the lead
in number of votes over McGill on
the ground that McGill has to bear
the brunt of criticism of the farm
control act-and Huxman doesn't.
Try to Appease Farmer.
Polls taken by the Democratic Or
ganization indicate Democratic gains
in some parts of the State. The Demo-
cratic leaders give a rather rosy pic
ture of conditions among the farm
ers, declaring that the farmers in the
western part of the State-the wheat
belt and the dust boWl"-realize that
If it had not been for the benefits un-
der the Roosevelt farm poll
cies in recent years they would have
been completely wiped out.
According to the Democrats, Re-
publican candidates reached the peak
of their strength in September and
have been dropping back ever since
The farmers, they say, have reached
the conclusion that the Republicans
have nothing to offer, no constructive
program and are campaigning on gen
eralitieS." The Democrats are ham,
mering home the fact that the Roose-
welt administration has dumped into
Kansas since 1888 total of s6O5 ,00O,-
600, or about sl20,00O0O0 a year, and
has collected about S39,O0O,OOO in reve-
nue. from Federal taxes Even now
more Federal money is hurrying into
the State in various projects.
Republican candidates, while at
tacking some of the New Deal moves
and policies, have not made an open
and constant attack upon the farm
program. AS matter of fact, Sena-
tor Capper and some of the Repub-
lican members of the House from Kan
Sas voted for the farm bill. In their
platform the Republicans say: I'VE
declare the farm problem to be the
most important economic question be-
fore the country and re-eminently
the most important question to Kan
sas. The disparity between farm and
non-farm income has reached alarm
ing proportions and must be reduced.
Over several administrations of both
parties legislation has been enacted,
some of which has brought benefits
to the farmer and some disadvantages
have resulted. The farm problem is
not yet solved. The present program
is neither complete nor satisfactory
and must be improved"
In other words. the Republicans. in
stead of denouncing the Federal ben
efits paid the farmers, are promising
to do more for the farmers The
Democratic State platform is quite
brief with regard to the farm ques-
tion, Jumping it with labor 1t in
dorses the beneficial legislation en-
acted by Congress but makes no spe-
