TAKING GOALS MARKETS
(Bluefield Telegraph)

Throughout the country there
as howl of fear during h e
negotiations of the wage con-
tract and the coal supply would
fail and cause stagnation. The
mines are again open, and
strange as it may seem, there
is scarcity of orders.
Can it be that the big users
of fuel have decided that they
want insurance from strikes
and curtailed production and
are turning to other fuels-oil,
gas, water-made electricity?
In another column of this issue
there is copied an article from
the New York Times, telling of
one great concern that has cut
its fuel needs two and one-half
million tons and will use oil to
tn e equivalent of that much
coal. That means five hundred
thousand days work to miners
and laborers about the mines,
many trips to trainmen and less
work for railroad men. to say
nothing of the jobs lost in
other lines on account of the
change.
Too much harassment of the
coal industry is running the OPP
portunities of this and other
coal producing communities.
The McDowell times. [volume] (Keystone, W. Va.) 1904-1941, 1939-05-19

Petty political jealousies,
braln-storm manoeuverings are
things that should be ignored.
Somebody must be in control.
Our Democratic friends have a
right to be respected for their
views without being kicked
out. And now while they are in
an attitude to return to The
party of their choice, for
heavens sake, leave the door
open and unlatch the strings of
mercy. God forgive them their
mistake.

Dutch S Hur|inq
Apt 10 Get Him
20-win Glory
KnuckIer Gives Only
6 Hits to Chisox;
Idle Yunks Gain
BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer

Whenever the boys get around
to awarding their gold palms this
fall for meritorious service on base
balls firing line they would do well
to start with a happy old warrior
named Emil (Dutch) Leonard,
Pitching for the sixth-place Wash
lngton club in the American League
the 29-year-old knuckle-ball expert
has outtrumped the aces of a lot OF
clubs that give their hurlers i'm
pressive assistance.
He held the Chicago White Sox
to six hits last night to win his
10th game of the season, 4-3, and
has chance to finish in the select
company Of the 20-game winners
making him as rare as Republican
at the Capital.
Earlier this year Clark Griffith,
the "Old Fox" who owns the Ma
tlonals, was quoted as saying Leon
ard wasn't the best pitcher on his
staff. But Griff also has been quoted
to the effect the Yankees weren't
much of ball club.
Record Speaks for Itself.
At any rate Dutchs record speaks
more eloquently than any opinions
could. He beat New York's world
champions four out of five times
this year and last nights triumph
was his fourth over the White Sox
The fact that two of the hits he
gave Chicago were triples and an
other was double helped the White
Sox to score single runs in the first,
seventh and eighth innings, but the
Mats themselves pounded two Sox
singers for 10 hits.
The Yankees were idle yet never
theless added half a game to their
lead as the nose-diving Boston Red
Sox dropped another to Detroit.
11-4. The Tigers batted old Moses
Grove out in the sixth for his third
defeat and continued a 13-hit as
sault on three other hurlers. But
four untimely errors by the Bostons
did as much damage as the hits.
AS Make 1t Three in Row.
The Philadelphia Athletics took
their third straight from the lowly
st Louis Browns, 40, with Wally
Moses accounting for all the win
ners' runs. Moses led off with dou-
BILE and scored in the first frame and
then hit homer with two on in the
fourth.
Rain again washed out all the
National League games except a
double-head between the Pitts
burgh Pirates and Philadelphia
Phillies, which they graciously di-
vided
Max Butcher, the big right
handler acquired by the Buccaneers
recently from the tail-enders, turned
on his old teammates with fve-hit
pitching chore which bettered Kirby
Higbe's six-hit job and won the first
game, 10 In the second contest the
Phils unleashed 14-hit attack on
four Pirate pitchers to win, 11-6.
