 .BROOLYN AC OUT ION BAD THROW BY OWN PITCHER GreatOrex Got } of Locals 8 Hits; Squad Gets
 Home Tonight
Especial to The Democrat

Youngstown, Ohio, Sept. 14.-Con- necticut's only entry in the national amateur baseball tournament in this city of steel mills, the Brooklyn A c. of Waterbury got successive follr- hit pitching jobs on two days, but left here tonight for home, victims of the ''heartbreaker" of the 1942 meet--and no mistake. Teddy Gra- beck, a New Haven boy allowed but four hits, all of them singles in 1S full innings of play, then lost the game 3 to 2: when he made Q bad throw to third base trying for force-out, the ball going past the baseman into left field as hte run ner scored to decide the ball game. Again, as was the situation last year in the same city, 1t was team from Birmingham, Ala, that elimin- ated the Brooklyn A. c. with noth- ing left to do after the game but get back to the hotel, pack up, eat meal and start for home.
 A losing argument that held up the game some time, only prolonged the sadness as umpires in Youngs' town are not given to changing de- cisions on close plays-no matter what!
 Bad Luck
 In addition to losing the mara thon game, Grabeck allowed the Birmingham Goslins two-run edgd in the very first inning, but the Brooks got them back in the sixth and lost 8 third run when close play at third base was decided against them. Long argument proved futile, though little did any, one think there were 12 more inn- ings to go. Greatorex of the BAG entry continued his fiashy tnfield- play and heavy stickwork with g for 2" in the double-header single game, while Banziger contributed double.
 Tuesday, about 8 p. m. was back home" time after a half day and 8 look at the Empire State building in New York.
 Other Results
 Youngtowns, O., Sept. IS. (UP)-- Nine teams survived today as the National Amateur Baseball tourna- ment moved into Its fourth round.
 Fort Wayne, Ind, Dormont, Pa, PontiaS, Mich, Flint, Mich, Atlanta, Ga, Deroit, New York, Birmingham, Ala, and Dayton, O., are still in the running after three days Of com petition. Pontiac and Flint, how ever, need only one more defeat to eliminate them.
 Yesterdays results were high lighted by an 18-inning marathon in which Birmingham finally elim' mated Waterbury, Conn, 3-2.
 Atlanta Beat Cleveland, 8-5; Foa Wayne defeated oPntiaS, S-2 in 10 innings; Detroit whipped Akron, O. 3-2; Dormont defeated Flint, 3-l and New oYrk crushed Baltimore, 8-1. Dayton drew bye.

SHlPBUILDER STRESSES
VALUE OF UNION SHOP

Another veteran shipbuilder who for
years fought bona tide unions has come
out i'm support Of the union shop" as
the best guarantee of efficient produc-
ton.
He is William s. Newell, president
of the South Portland Shipbuilding
Corporation, South Portland. Me,
which is under II closed shop agree
ment with AFL unions.
Like Henry J. Kaiser and Andrew
j. Higgins. ''miracc' shipmakerS,
Newell in past years bitterly resisted
inroads Of legitimate unions. At the
South Portland yard and several
others headed by Newell there We're
either no unions or "company unions.
After dealing with regular unions for
Il while, Newell, again like Kaiser and
Higgins, had Il change of heart and is
now a staunch supporter of strong,
bona tide unions.
II am now fully of the opinion that
properly operated, the union shop is
the finest thing for labor and capital"
Newell said.
"SucceSSfll work is the product of
cooperation, and that, in my opinion,
calls for 100 per cent organization of
employees"

Bars japanese
In Cotton Fields
Army Withdrdws Permission
For Use In Harvesting
Crops In Arizona

San Francisco. - Lieut.. Gen. John
l.. Dewitt, Western defense com
mandor. withdrew permission for the
use of Japanese evacueeS in the har-
veSting of Arizona'S long staple cotton
crop. The Army explained that it had
been found necessary to employ troops
to guard the exterior boundaries of
the cotton growing areas and that the
number of japanese volunteers for the
cotton picking was mot up to the eN-
pectations of the growers"
"The results obtained were not suili-
use of troops, hence General DeWitt'S
decision to withdraw the troops for
other services" it was stated.
For months after persons of Jap
anese ancestry had been evacuated
from military areas of the three West
Coast States and Arizona the Army
refused to release any of them from
assembly or relocation centerS to help
harvest crops i'm these areas, despite 4
farm labor shortage.
The War Department relaxed this
prohibition however, about two months
ago when scarcity of labor imperiled
this years crop Of long staple cotton,
which is valuable in the making of
some types of military equipment.
The War Relocation Authority, in
charge of the permanent relocation
centers. began recruiting volunteer
harvesterS from the Gila River centre
in Arizona on Sept. ; and conducted
negotiations with prospective employ
ers, who We're to pay the prevailing
wage to the, cotton pickers. The agency
assumed responsibility for proper
housing and sanitation.
When the harvest began in Pinal
and Maricopa Counties on Sept. y
there were 100 evacueeS in the fields.
The number varied from then on, with
2S3 on Oct 3 the high figure.
This was not considered Il reflection
on the evacueeS, inasmuch as Il survey
of, the number of employableS at the
Gila centre showed that only 81 were
available above the requirements of the
centre itself. Acco ing to WRA
sources hostility by minor officials in
parts of Arizonil caused Il dropping off
in the volunteering.
although General Dewitt advised
Governor Osborn of Arizona that the
use of japanese in the cotton harvest
was no longer possible, several thou
sand eyacueeS are at work i'm the sugar
beet fields outside Military Area No. |.
& The California sugar beet growers
now have the aid of 5000 AleXicanS
imported under an international agree
ment and word came that 1,SOO more
Mexican labOrerS were to be brought
into this State during November for
assignment to the vegetable fields of
the Imperial Valley.

Chemical Report

Revealed TO Keep Trude

Washington A Comprehensive re-
port on the manner in which some
SlOOOO,OOn worth of scarce chemicals
have been allocated to industry by the
WIPES chemicals division was issued
by the WIPE division. The ALLEGATIONS
reported do not include direct military
needs.
Chemical ALLEGATIONS made for this
month were granted on the basis OF
end-usc rather than on preference
ratings. The report also reflected Situ-
ations in which applications were de-
MED in order to encourage industry to
substitute less critica materials,
where possible, for the scarce chem-
cal originally requested.
The report is the second in new
monthly series which the chemical
division explained is intended to ac-
quaint the industry and the public
with the supply picture in each OF the
chemical products under ALLEGATION
control by WPB. The report lists each
chemical and states the percentage of
requests allowed for each use. 1t lists
uses which were filled completely,
those which were partially filled and
those which were totally denied.
Accoring to WPB officials, the TO
port is the most comparative picture
of the scarce chemicals industry ever
released Ivy WPR and the Information
