State Benefits To
Jobless Hit 1910
Low During November

Payments of benefits to jobless
in November by the Maryland I'm
employment Compensation Board
were smaller than in any preced-
ing month of the year, totaling
1858, 1874, exactly $3O,535 less than
the October total, but $35,O73 more
than the amount paid in November
of last year.
The grand total of unemploy-
ment benefits paid by the Mary
land board at the end of November
was $22,252,719, while the aggre-
gate for this calendar year to the
end of November was $6,361, goo.
Reports to the board under the
unemployment compensation act
show that in the first six months
of this year the wages paid by
employers covered by the law were
less than a million dollars in ex-
cess of the amount paid in the cor
responding period of last year but
the figures for the third quarter,
not yet completed, are expected to
record more substantial increase,
due to enlarged industrial activi-
ties.

CHICAGO'S great North Side won't
~ be the same next summer-not
with Charles Leo Hartnett absent
from his old haunts in Wrigley field.
Gabby's honorable 19-year career
with the Chicago Cubs drew to a
close a couple Of weeks ago. 1t
wasn't just the kind of a finish that
thousands of friends wanted for old
Tomato Face but it was just as def
mite as owner p. X. Wrigley's soft
words could make it. Gabby, play
er-manager Of the Cubs since July,
1888, and member Of the team since
1922, was fred with . few we'll
chosen remarks. In giving Gabby
the bounce, Wrigley said, among
other things:
I'VE are not blaming Hartnett-
he has done everything he could, but
we feel it Is UP to us to try and keep
on trying to get the best possible
combination Of personnel to produce
the best possible results"

AS we round out the
seventh year of enamel
patton from National
Prohibition, it seems in
order for us to take a
quick glance at some of
the things Repeal has
meant to our Nation.
Seven years ago there
was no payroll of a le-
galized liquor industry
in this country.
Today the payroll of
that industry is ST., 000,-
100000 a year
Seven years ago no
one was employed in a
legalized liquor indus
try in the United States.
To-day over ,00O,0 900
people depend on this
industry for their jobs.
Seven years ago our
public treasures receiv-
ed no tax revenues from
a legalized liquor indus
try.
Today a revenue of
more than ST. 900, 0O0,-
600 a year is received
from this source.
These facts give only
a small part of the story
of what Repeal has
meant to this country.
The other parts of that
story partic ular ly
those which have to do
with social conditions,
crime, vice and corrup-
ton under bootlegging.
as contrasted with the
situation today-are so
well known by this time
that they hardly need
to be retold.

One thing in Mr. Wrigley's favor
he personally conducted the firing |
Of Gabby. 1t couldn't have been an
easy thing for him to do since Gabby |
had spent his entire big league
career with the Cubs. He stepped
up from Worcester of the Eastern
league in 1922.
The Hard Way
Wrigley could have turned the
very unpleasant. task over to Jim
Gallagher, former Chicago sports
writer whom he named general
manager, or president. of the Cubs
at the same time he fred Gabby.
In other words, Wrigley could have
hired Gallagher with instructions to
fire Gabby as his first duty. How
ever, that would have placed Gal
lagher on the spot.
Hartnett's admirers claim, SEEM
ingly with justification, that Wrigley
has reversed his field since August
81, when he. said that no change
In managers was contemplated.
Club officials have q different story.
What Wrigley really said. according
to them, was that so change Is mot
contemplated at this time"
The subsequent firing supposedly
resulted because the Cubs finished
in the second division for the first
time in is years and attendance
took sharp turn downward.
Gabby always was one Of Chicago's
most popular players. But fate
dealt him a poor hand when he sue
ceeded Charlie Grimm as manager.
Not once did he, ever manage
full squad of active players. He
went through the 1910 wars with only
% men, two of whom had bum legs,
one had his appendix removed and
one who was a dead-arm pitcher.
The 1899 campaign was even
worse. At one time he was so short
handed he had only three outfeld-
ers and was on the sick list.
Hartnett admitted that he was
"quite surprised" when informed Of
his dismissal. Thousands Of Cub
fans also were quite surprised. But
at least they have something with
which to occupy their minds dur
ing the long winter months ahead.
They can riddle out Mr.. Wrigley's
statement concerning the best pos
sible combination of personnel"

Mutt and left Grass

According to the Country Home

tin Kansas. This new-old grass
is really two grasses. blue grama
and buffalo, the Mutt and jeff of the

the tall, tough granna rudely shoves
its partner aside and takes over the
field. But when wet weather comes,
the short but subtle buffalo grass
slyly slips in and regains its hold.
These grasses are spread by SOW
ing 300 pounds of their hay per
acre with a manure spreader. The
hay is harvested in September.
