NO PARTY MATTER

If the so-called Britain bill
passes congress in its present dangerous
form, it will be largely the fault of the
Republicans in congress.
The bill contains things of vital inter-
est to the people of America. Not to the
Republican party of America, nor to the
Democratic party but to the people as
a whole, regardless of party. 1t con-
tains things both dangerous and neces-
sary to the welfare of the people. 1t
has some very good provisions, and some
very bad ones.
Yet the old-time Republicans in con-
gress have planned and are carrying out
their onslaught on the measure entirely
from party angle. They refuse to rec
ognize anything good in it. They refuse
TO recognize the necessity for passage of
some of its provisions. They are against
it lock, stock and barrel-and evidently
for no other principal reason than that
it is sponsored by Democratic party
administration.
This is no time for party consideration
of such a measure. The bill needs no
party split which might kill it entirely,
wise, non-partisan. 1t needs thoughtful,
wise, none-partisan consideration to weed
out the bad provisions and approve the
good ones.

DYKES EYE FOR WAEvER LIST PRIZES a0
 GIVES (HlS0Y 5UpRIsING BALI Clgg3
By DILLON GRAHAM Sports Editor, AP Feature Service

NEW YORK, May 30-Jimmy Dykes. the squatty squire behind the stogic. has shown that you don't need a hunk of dough to build a baseball club if you've got discerning eye for ivory.
 At the end of the first five weeks of the American League season, Dykes had skippered his Chicago White Sox, gang with out single high-priced perform CT, into second place.
 Besides being a clever manager the best of the dugout jockeys, and loquacious umpire dresser down, Dykes is just about the canniest trader around the dia- mond marts.
 He's foxier than the Old Fox, Clark Griffith. And he has out foxed Griff several times.
 Jimmy's eyes are weary from scanning the major league waiver lists for broken-down athletes who might be rejuvenated. He's acquired fallen arches from tramping from one baseball bargain counter to an- other in search for grey-beards or sore-arms who just possibly might have another good year in them. But hes built contending club out of these outcasts, left-overs aad discards.
 Can't Understand It
 "Hell,' he observes, lon paper we don't belong in the same league with Cleveland, but we ain't a fur piece behind 'em now.
 Were just playing winning ball. I can't explain why, if look at the averages. Because we ain't hitting-we're last in the league, we're no fielding geniuses, and we ain't knocking in many runs. But we are getting good pitching.
 Don't know how long it'll keep up," he commented, taking a long, black cigar from his kiss CT and delicately knocking off the ashes.
 "The White Sox aint spent any real cabbage for a ball player since they bought me-" he sald Then he laughted., He likes to ex- plain that he and Mule Haas were tossed In as ballast when the Sox bought Al Simmons from the Athletics back in 1892 for $l5o,- 900.
 They didn't do so bad, at that" he said They got themselves manager coach-Mule and they sold Simmons for $75,- 0Oo."
 The entire White Sox squad cost less than the Chicago Cubs paid for their latest coach, J. Her. man Dean, Old Dig cost the Cubs $185.000 and several players when he was purchased several years ago as pitcher.

HuIrIIe'!r's!| Duel As Moosenlen
 WaIIop Elks
ArtIered Tribe Falls in Sixth as Pitchers Hold
 Almost Same Record
SCORE LAST NIGHT
 Moose 2; Elks l

The Juneau Moose miraculously trimmed the Elks by lone run last night after pitching duel that saw the score tied for two frames and broken by Grummetts fast score in the last of the sixth.
 In freak battle in which pitch CTS Lewis of the Elks and Snow of the Moose each gave four walks and tanned seven men,, the fans saw fray that wobbled along like | bicycle with a bent front wheel, finally ending as the Moose pulled ahead at the last minute and held their narrow margin lead to the end
 Six Hits Total
 The two pitchers held down the batters with total of six hits, while the outfielders pulled tricks on the grounds that have only been seen in the movies. The Elks got only two hits off Joe Snow and the Moose doubled the hits as they did the score by taking four from Max Lewis.
 Right from the start of the fray, which was rained out ten days ago, Kumasaka pulled an error out of Guys bag to get to first. Then Taguchi and Lewis filled the sacks. both on slow fielder's choices to second which did no good and al lowed the men to make first. Catcher Stan Grummett passed a ball and while fumbling for it Kumasaka came whistling in from third to make the first score Cf the evening, and bringing the Elks in the lead.
 In the next one and one-half innings seven men were struck out as the two hurlers bore down on the bat. In the third the Moose men tied the score one-all as Fritz Schmitz grounded out and Guy, after taking base on single and making two bases on Vorhics' err. TOT, came in on the play.
 Freak Play
 First time this season and freak in any league was the play in thcl fourth when Vorhies put his own man out while running from first to second. Vorhies had been walked and Kumasaka came to bat. A slow one came at the batter and he Topped it slowly out near second where it collided with the running Vorhies.
 Last score of the battle was made when Stan Grummett took first on Iverson's error in the sixth. then dashed home from third after Guy had flied out.
 Game Today and Tonight
 Today, as part of the Memorial Day holiday program, picked team from the Juneau High School will meet team from the gunboat Charleston at o'clock on the Fire mems Ball Park.
 Tonight the Elks and the Moose will play a regularly scheduled game beginning at 6:30 o'clock on the Firemen's Ball Park.
