DAIRY MANPOWER


Fortnight Sen. Berkeley Bunker
of Nevada had long talk with the
President the other day on the war
manpower problem, in which he en-
phasized the need of swift action to
meet the labor shortage on dairy
farms.
"I'm from a farm area myself
and ! know what these dairy people
are up against" said Bunker. Gun
less we move fast we will have a
serious shortage next year. Already,
many farmers are beginning to
slaughter their dairy herds because
they can't get help to tend them"
The President admitted the prob
lem was serious, and assured Bunk
er that the War Manpower commits
sion was aware of it. He added,
however, that he doubted any steps
the government might take to re-
ieve the farm labor shortage would
be complete answer.
"The government can't solve this
alone" said Roosevelt. eve are
going to have to depend on the farm
ers themselves for Individual initia-
tive. I'll give you an example Of
what I mean"
The President then told how a
neighbor of his in New York state,
owning a large dairy farm, had
partly solved his labor shortage by
employing students from a nearby
high school to milk the cows.
''Boys did the milking in the morn
ing and group of girls from the
same school took over in the after
noons," he said.
"That sounds like good idea, Mr..
President" observed Senator Bunk
er, "but it isn't exactly new one.
When 1 was a boy on a Nevada
farm, used to milk 10 cows every
morning before school and 10 at
night. And I had to ride eight miles
to school on bus"

Mr.. Gardner was painting some

posed himself to the lure.

Separate WPA Region
For D. {. Is Asked
In Randolph Letter
Sees Greater Efficiency
If Baltimore Approval
Is Made Unnecessary

Creation of separate WPA re-
gion for the District of Columbia
was proposed by Chairman Ran
dolph of the House District Com
mittee in letter mailed last night
to Brig. Gen. Philip B. Fleming, ad-
ministrator Of the Federal Works
Agency.
The District is now combined with
Maryland in a WPA region and all
District work must be approved and
authorized in the Baltimore head
quarters.
Chairman Randolph emphasized
that his study of local projects con-
vinced him that strictly District
administration of projects and per-
sonnel would result in greater eff
cheney and substantial benefits fol-
the National Capital to meet wal
emergencies.
Arguing for the separate region
Mr.. Randolph pointed out that the
WPA work here exceeds that in Del
aware, which had previously been
included in the Maryland-D. C.
jurisdiction but has now been made
an independent unit.
He said that by creating a Dis
trict unit, no additional expense
would be involved because the same
administrative personnel is required
under either set-up. In fact, he
contended, the expense of a sepa-
rate Office here would probably be
less because closer contact could
be had with the national headquar-
tiers.
Chairman Randolph also claimed
that by establishing separate unit
here the administration of funds
under the Lanham Act would be
improved. ...,

Labor Day Holiday Travel
Expected to Be Near Record
All Railroads, Bus and Air Lines
Booked Almost to Capacity

A Labor Day travel movement
that may reach record d-breaking pro-
portions is getting under way this
evening, railroads, bus lines and air
lines expecting facilities to be taxed
to the limit to handle the crowds out
of Washington. The once of De-
fense Transportation several days
ago called on the public to hold
weekend travel to a minimum.
The railroads have arranged for
extra sections-or at least, extra
r--all~-trains. The easG Carey
hound Bus Lines reported that sit
doesn't look as though we are go
| ing to.ibe able@to haul everybody, -
and air lines, On which the Govern
ment has travel priority, report
heavy bookings.
At the offices OF the Pennsylvania
Railroad, 1t was said today that
practically every train out Of the
Capital would be running in extra
sections, starting this evening, and
that indications were the movement
would continue through the week
end, this forecast being based on the
heavy ticket sales of the past few
days.
Pullmans Nearly Filled.
Regular Pullman accommodations
have been pretty we'll absorbed, it
was said, and every coach that can
be pressed into service is expected
to be used.

Hero Of Casey al Bat
Struggles for Life
AT Hospital Here
Central Figure of Fomou:
Poem, Now 80, Made
Strike-Out in 1887

Daniel NJ Casey, 80, the original
Casey at the Bat" today is strug-
ling to stay in the game of life itself
at George Washington Hospital.
The mighty Casey, who joined
baseball's immortals after sports
writer composed the poem, Casey
at the Bat" and gave it to an actor
who rose to fame reciting its lines.
Mr.. Casey, who has lived at 9911
Switzerland road, -Four Corners,
Md, for number of years, was
brought to the hospital 10 days ago
seriously i'll. His physician, DR.. F. A.
Reuter-, said there was mo change"
in his condition today.
1t was back in 1887. in Philadel-
phia. in a game between the Phillies
and the New York Giants, that Casey
came to bat for the "Mudville Nine"
in the ninth inning with two men
out and the bases full
Il was not an exceptionally good
hitter" Mr. Casey said in an inter-
view with The Star several years
ago. you see, was pitcher in
those days. I could bat about 200.
But getting back to the strike
out" he continued, "the count had
gone to and 2 and the pitcher,
don't recall who he was, burned one
over the plate. And what a miss
it was.
Covering the event was Ernest
Thayer, sports writer for Phila-
delphia paper. After the game he
scribbled the poem and showed it
to me. Then he gave it to De Wolf
Hopper, the great actor of those
days, who made it famous by his
recitation. T'hayer meant it only as
joke, and none of us dreamed it
would become as famous as it has"
Mr.. Casey broke into professional
baseball in 1884 with Wilmington
In the Eastern League. The next
year he went to Indianapolis, then
to Detroit and finally to Philadel-
ph!a. In 1887 he pitched So games,
winning 38, losing IL and hurting
two tie games.
After leaving baseball in 1891 Mr..
Casey moved with his wife to Bing-
hamton. N. Y, where he worked as
q streetcar conductor until his re-
tirement. The Caseys moved to
Washington In, 1933kand made their
home In Marylandalpur years later.

Day comes later than usual this
year, and many vacationers, conse-
quently, already are back home.
This will relieve the demand for
transportation to some extent. Col
leges are opening later, which also
will be helpful, it was added.
At the Baltimore & Ohio, it was
reported that a record movement
was looked for, both in and out of
the Capital. Short hauls-to New
York, for example-will account for
Q large proportion Of the business
But there also IS heavy movement
as far west as Chicago and ST. Louis
The Southern reported that Astraf-
fic" is going to be about as Heavy as
it could be on all trains in every
direction"
Asks Public to Help.
An all-time peak in sleeping car
travel was predicted for the week
end by David A. Crawford, presi-
dent of the Pullman Co., who said
that already civilian traffic Is run
ming third ahead of last year and
that troop transport is five times
heavier.
1t is possible, Mr.. Crawford
warned, that the car supply will not
be able to meet both civilian and
military requirements. The best
course for civilians under these cir
cumstances, he added, is to be pre-
pared to make last-minute adjust
ments in travel arrangements, either
by delaying their trips or starting
earlier than planned.
