VIRGINIA JUDGESHIP
FIGHT COMES TO END

Washington, May 18.-(AP)-The
fight between President Roosevelt
and the two Virginia senators over
the appointment of a federal judge
in the state came to an end today.
The chief executive named Dean
Armistead M. Dobie, of the Univer-
sity of Virginia law school, to the
post Senator Byrd said he and his
colleague, Senator Glass, were "con-
suited" and gave their approval be-
fore the nomination was sent to the
senate. President Roosevelt told a
press conference that his secretary
had informed both senators the NOM
ination was coming to the Senate a
half hour before it was sent.
! Simultaneously with the announce
,ment of the Dobie nomination to-
day, Mr. Roosevelt entertained at
luncheon Governor James H. Price,
of Virginia, leader of the faction in
the Democratic party in Virginia op-
posed to Glass and Byrd. Price told
reporters he first heard of the Dobie
nomination at the luncheon.

OF Penalties
Upon Cotton

College Station, Raleigh, May 18.
Cotton sold from this years crop III
excess of producers cotton mar
letting quota under the AAA pro-
gram will be subject to penalty
Of three cents o pound, f. Y. Floyd,
AAA executive officer at State Col
lege, announced today
The AAA official also said that
the penalty on excess marketings OF
carry-over penalty cotton will be
two cents pound. Penalties on
both this years and carry-over
penalty cotton from last year will
be collected by the buyer at the
time Of sale.
The increase in penalty on this
years excess marketings from two to
three cents a pound is provided for
ir the act under which the program
operates, Floyd said.
The penalty for excess market
ings does not apply to cotton carried
over from q previous season which
would not have been subject to pen
atty if it had been marketed dur
ing the previous year.
Despite this minor change, Floyd
said, the cotton marketing quota
regulations for 1939-40 are substan-
tally the same as the regulations in
effect during the past marketing
season.
The AAA executive officer ex-
planned that the cotton marketing
quota of a farm is the normal or
actual production, whichever is
greater, of the farms cotton acre
age allotment, plus the amount of
any carry-over cotton which would
not have been subject to penalty if
marketed in 1888
However, until the county COM
mittee determines that the actual
production of the allotment is
larger than the normal production,

"And suppose I explain to Daddy

from Jessica's little triangle Of a

The administration, 1t appeared,
had every disposition to make rea-

business was supposed to be becom-

The dope was that the legislators
would rush through few laws, mu-

mic recovery to go on recovering IN
the ordinary course OF nature.
Now What?
What followed?
Congress has voted expenditures
hundreds of millions in excess OF
what the administration asked for,
despite all the yowling it has done
concerning alleged executive ex-
travagance. It hasn't provided funds
to meet these additional expenditures

Shortstop Cecil Travis, who sew
eral weeks ago vacated this village
in i'll repute, returned today stamped
as one of the most improved play
ers in the American League In the
opinion of Manager Bucky Harris
the Mats gangling Georgian is play
ing the smootheSt ShortStop of his
career.
Without attempting to delve too
deeply into an arid atmosphere of
statistics, there nevertheless are fig
ures to support Harris contention
They prove fairly convincingly that
Cecil has recovered from the twin
evils of flu and grippe which weak
ened the uncomplaining guy more
than he would admit.
Travis has been transformed from
rather erratic individual into an
amazingly effective performer. Until
the first game of yesterdays double
header at Cleveland Travis had
travelled 18 games without miscue,
handling 81 chances over that
period
With that flawless fielding Cecil
has combined a batting comeback
which still may find him finishing
the season with a respectable aver
age despite disastrous start. When
the Mats deserted Washington July
for a swing through seven cities,
Travis was hitting a mild PAL. Now
he has buoyed that to 276, a boost
of some IS points.
Long Pull for Travis.
It's been a terrific uphill struggle
for Silent Cecil. He battled his way
back into the lineup when it might
have been more discreet for him to
remain in bed. He preferred to play,
though, and contribute what he
could to a club which is destined to
be stranded in the second division.
He hasn't paced the lowly Mats to
spectacular splurge of victories,
but at least he hasn't hampered
them. He has made one harmless
error in his last 20 games, handling
101 chances over that stretch.
The seige of sickness-he was
floored by flu in spring training and
later leveled by grippe at Chicago
altered Travis batting form consid-
erably. He switched to a lighter
bat to offset his physical weakness
