CHICAGO, July 15.--A big deal
by which the Brooklyn Dodgers hope
to obtain Louis tBobo) Buck New
som from the Washington Senators
was understood to be on the fire
today as the National League
champions cruised into town for a
series with the Chicago Cubs.
Newsom, husky right-handed
pitcher who helped carry the De-
troit Tigers to a pennant two years
ago, has been dear to the Dodgers
hearts since the spring training
season, when they were baked from
buying him because Washington
and the st. Louis Browns refused to
waive.
Bordagaray and Pitcher Figure.
AS the projected trade was ru-
mored in club circles, Brooklyn
would send Outfielder Stanley
(Frenchy) Bordagaray and a pitch
er, probably either Newt Kimbau
or Les Webber, to the Senators.
To make deal at this stage Of
the season waivers must be OBJ
tanned on all the players involved
and it was believed the Dodgers may
have encountered some dificuIty
getting Bordagaray out of the Ma
tional League.
This pending transaction appar.
emily. is the cause of the current mix
up which finds the Brooklyn club
travelling through the West with 26
players. one more than the major
league limit.
The Dodgers announced last week
end that they had purchased Pitcher
Max Macon from their Montreal
farm and he Joined the club In Pitts
burgh Sunday and sat on the bench
in uniform.
Newsom Costly to Griffs.
When the Pirates protested the
game, Manager Leo Durocher said
Macon still was under contract to
Montreal, but it obviously was the
Intention Of the Brooklyn manage
ment to install him as a full -fiedged
Dodger as soon as room could be
made for him on the squad.
Newsom has been inconsistent this
season for the Senators, sometimes
appearing great, but more often
looking indifferent, as his record of
s victories and 13 defeats attests.
Since the Senators have sloughed
into last place it was considered
likely that they wished to unload
NewsolpS high salary. just how
much he has been earning never
has been disclosed, but 1t probably
Is abouG $4,000, or a cut Of some
SIS, 1000 from his 1941 salary at De-

Neutrality Remnants

The celerity with which the Senate
voted unanimously to repeal the Sec
ton of the truncated Neutrality Act
which forbids private loans or credits
to nations at war should be dupli-
Gated by the House, for the prohibi-
tion long since has become obsolete
and recently has operated to inter-
fere with necessary financial trans
actions between America and her
allies. Section T. as the provision
is known, was supposed to keep us
out of war by preventing fiscal en-
tanglements that might drag us in
to protect American investments. 1t
was based on the fictional surmise
that America went to war in 1917 to
save the international bankers" and
the war profiteers." The section was
first written into the ill-advised
Neutrality Act in 1886.
Senator Clark of Missouri, a lead
ing isolationist until Pearl Harbor,
has made the highly sensible pro-
posal that all the remnants of the
Neutrality Act be stricken from the
statute books, now that we are at
war. What remains of the ill-be-
gotten law is as meaningless today
as its name. The only other remain
ing provisions are those controlling
export OF. munitions, forbidding for
Evening star., 1942-02-14

eign vessels from flying the Amer
ican flag, forbidding our nationals
from travelling on belligerent ships
except by presidential permission,
banning submarines or armed sur
face craft from using our ports ex-
cept by presidential permission, and
requiring vessels in our ports to give
bond not to deliver men or supplies
to belligerent ships. The so-called
cash-and-carry provision also tech
nically remains on the books,
although nullified by the Lease-Lend
Act.
The futility of retaining any of
these provisions in the light Of pres
ent conditions is obvious. Since the
need for prompt repeal Of the ban
on private loans is urgent, the Sem
ate acted wisely in concentrating
immediate attention on Section 7.
But there is no good reason why the
remainder of the outmoded law
should not be repealed also at an
early date.

A Base Attack

The business of training young
airmen is serious one; and although
they are being made fit for combat,
it is essential that in the early stages
they be free from actual enemy
attack until they learn to use their
equipment. Hence the number of
budding R. A. F. pilots in the United
States. And yet, ironically, our
Florida Gulf Coast fields have had to
cope with swarms of invading dive
bombers whose numerical superior
ity is only partially neutralized by
their low horsepower and diminutive
size. Other events in the headlines
kept the news from the general pub
lie, but the situation was serious,
until taken in hand by DR.. Dove,
noted expert.
Now all is we'll. The doctor, locat-
ing the operating bases of the enemy
piles of seaweed along the shores
of bayous-sprayed them with creo-
sote and Diesel fuel, destroying on
the ground untold millions of
stomoxys calcitrans, or biting stable
flies as they are more commonly
known. Freed from this peril, our
fiedgling pilots are again able to
concentrate on their main task, and
show the Axis that there are no flies
on Uncle Sam.

Montgomery Building

The Montgomery County commits
sioners believe their county has been
sighted in the allotment of Federal
Government buildings and housing
projects. They note huge Govern
ment construction projects under
way in nearby Virginia and in the
Suitland, Maryland, area and ex-
press apprehension over the effect
on Montgomery If future building al
locations are made in the same areas.
Montgomery County sites were
chosen for the National Institute OF
Health and the new Naval Hospital,
the Naval Testing Basin at Carderock
and some comparatively small Fed
eral housing developments in the
Cabin John and Forest Glen sections.
But these projects will not involve a
great number OF employees and resi-
dents as is the case in Prince Georges
County and nearby Virginia. There
seems to be ample ground, therefore,
for the Montgomery plant that it's
future will be permanently retarded
and damaged" if the places of en-
pioyment available to its citizens are
moved number of miles further
from their home communities.
Federal officials will be justified in
acting on the Montgomery request
that sites within its borders and on
the northern side of the city be con-
sidered when more buildings are to
be constructed. Such sites may not
be so accessible to downtown Wash
ington as Virginia, but, on the other
hand, they do not have to be reached
by bridges. The reasonable, fair
and equitable" distribution of Federal
projects asked by Montgomery not
only would benefit that county but
help balance the development of
Greater washington
