CHAIN LETTERS ARE
VIOLATION OF POSTAL
FRAUD STATUTES

According to information re-
ceived at the local postoffice
mails all over the country are
being flooded with letters and
postal cards in the so-called
chain letter scheme. These in
clude the endless chain "Hankie
Club" Apron Club" Flower
Club" Towel Club" Hobby
Club" and numerous other
schemes. Sending such matter
through the mails Is violation
Of the postal fraud and lottery
statutes, and Acting Postmaster
Pat Dubois has asked us to pub
fish this as a warning. Notices
will be served upon persons par
ticipating in such schemes
whose names come to the atten-
ton of the Post Office Depart
ment requiring them to show
cause why fraud orders should
not be issued against them, says
a special bulletin from the Post
master Generals office. Heavy
penalties are provided for those
found guilty. The purpose of
this warning is to protect GUS
toners of the local office, and
to prevent them from getting in
to trouble.

FARMERS DEFINITELY AFFECT
ED BY RAILROAD WAGES

THE FARMER is the one pro-
Queer in America who does not, and
cannot, determine the price at which
his commodity will be sold. He
sows in the spring, with hope that
Nature will enable him to produce
a crop, and consumer demand will
assure him fair price. When, with
the assistance of Nature, his acres
have produced crop, he must reap
in the fall, regardless of what the
price may be.
The price is made at Chicago, at
Tidewater or at Liverpool, and the
farmer pays the transportation.
From the price paid is deducted the
delivery costs.
The manufacturer can, and does,
fix the price at which he will sell
his product. If there is not con-
sumner demand at the price he
names, he can lay off his help,
close his factory and await better
conditions. To the price the manu-
facturer names, the local merchant
adds the cost of transportation of
the product in fixing his price to
the consumer. 1 ne 1dTIIleT pays tllt
freight on what he sells and also on
what he buys.
The farmer has definite finan-
cial interest in the proposed wage
increase asked by the railroad en-
ployees of the nation. That increase
represents more than the railroads
are earning. They cannot absorb it
and continue to operate. It means
increased cost of transportation on
what the farmer sells and on what he
buys. He will get less for what his
factory - his acres produce, and
pay more for the commodities of
other factories-the things he and
his family need and use, and the
equipment needed to operate his
farm. The increased freight both
ways will amount to considerable
number of dollars a year for every
one of the more than six million
farms in America. Without that
proposed increase, the average rail-
road employee is far better off finan-
cially than is the average farmer.
who, collectively, will pay con-
siderable portion of the increase.

"You might also add that we can't

run Of terrible luck" Hickey said.
"That will make terrific differ

The l94l World series is now back

Gordon, the Oregon Flash.
Gordon did something more than
bat 500 in the series and reach first
IA times in five games. He killed
iniield drives that would have whis-
tied safely throlgh Dodser de-
lenses, and this makes = major dif-
ference to any pitcher.
The Yankees slipped at least four
hits to the right of second that Cor
don would have been waiting for
or at least would have handled with
cut breaking his neck.
The Yankee star is remarkably
quick starting in either direction,
and he is even quicker with his
hands. AZ a freshman at Oregon he

SPEAKING OF
SPORTS
BY ROBERT MeshANE

w HEN Ted Williams. the will
w lowy walloper of the Boston
Red Sox, won the 1871 American
league batting title, he called to
mind a couple of great swatsmiths
Of bygone era-Hugh Duffy and
Shoeless Joe Jackson.
Duffy has been called the greatest
hitter Of all time. Back In 1884 he
was fashioning = truly great bat
ting average, hitting well above 40.
Toward the end Of the season, Duff
fy's friends wanted him to quit In
order to protect his great mark.
Duffy turned thumbs down. He went
up and took his cuts right In order.
When the season had ended, Hugh
had batted an unbelievable .l3S.
Williams boosted a .405 average
this year when the Red Sox pulled
into Philadelphia for the final three
game series of the year. Williams
friends. like Duffy's, urged him to sit
the three games out. He had bested
the 400 mark and would be the first
American Lacquer to do 1t since Har-
~ Heilman hit .403 in 1923. In fact,
he would be the first major league
batter to turn the trick since Bill
Terry hit .40l in 1880.
The Hard Way
Like Duffy years before, Williams
said NJ. He went up tho Afst day
and collected only one hit IN four
trips. For the first time IN weeks
his average dropped below 80. The
future looked black for Ted, but at
least he had refused to hack into the
championship.
The next day they played a double
header. Ted stepped up to the plate
for the first time and belted out q
point winning hit. That happened
four times in row and a question
able decision robbed him Of his fifth
hit. In the second tilt, Ted collected
two for three. Altogether it was six
for eight and the average zoomed
up to ..406.
In the matter d styls, WilliaAs
reminds one Of Shoeless Joe. The
latter, like Williams, was ON The. tail,
loose and lean side. Williams IL
free Of all tension 1t the plate. So
was Jackson. All pitchers locked
alike to them. Both have had Al
most perfect hand and wrist action
and both hit anything and everything
offered to them by bafned pitchers.
Jackson and williams have other
attributes In common. Both weighed
IT'S pounds when they entered the
big time. Both were tall men-Wil-
liams six feet three and Jackson
six feet one. Both hitters were
born that way. They belong among
the natural hitters, along with Nap
Laj0ie and Babe Ruth.
In handing out honors it is i'm
possible to overlook Rogers Horns
by, holder of five-year record that
belongs among the all-time great
est. From 1921 through 1925 Horns
by averaged slightly more than .40l.
During those five consecutive years
he batted 1897, .40l, 1874, -.424 and
.403.

THIS matter of expecting even the

Of their games or most Of their
games Is q point all Of joint-if .
point can have a joint. Even the
Yankees and Dodgers, good enough
to carry OF pair Of pennants, won
only two-thirds Of their starts, and
football should be judged in much
the same manner.
There are too many strong teams
In the field today for old grads to
keep expecting one victory after an

the point Of tossing out teams that

. On this basis where would the

SOME REMINDERS OF OLD,
WAR NO. l SPEECHES
DIGGING THROUGH some old
rubbish a few days ago, discov-
cred number of clippings from
English papers, containing accounts
of the visit of a party of American
journalists, of which ! was one.
During the days spent in England
that party of Americans listened to
many speeches and, in view Of in
tervening and present-day events,
these clippings made interesting
reading
Arthur Balfour, in speech made
at luncheon, forecast the difficult
problems to be faced at the peace
table and what would happen in the
future should hatred have a place in
peace negotiations. The kind OF
peace he warned against was made
and his prophecy for the future has
been realized in a second World
war.
Lord Northcliffe, in a speech at
a luncheon in the London Times
building, forecast a League Of Ma
tons that, with America rs 4 par
ticipant, would solve all future
international problems. America
did not join the League and the
League did not prevent 4 second
World war.
Admiral Sims, commanding the
American navy in Europe, explained
the work of the British navy. He
said there we're never more than IL
German subs at sea at any one time
and that England had some 5000
vessels of various classes searching
for these subs and protecting mer-
chant ships. Admiral Sims said II
was the English navy that would
make victory for the Allied cause
possible by maintaining control Of
the seas. It was true at that time.
and is true again now with just
about the same conditions.
World War I, and the peace that
grew out Of it, did not prevent war
but, rather, encouraged more wars.
