the campaign now closed will not
exceed $150,0O0 to 900. it is
said. From now on, it is figured,
it will be easier for the Republi-
cans to obtain funds.
Mr.. Martin has had a tough time
as chairman, but has come through
successfully. He plans to give all
his time and effort in the new
Congress to the affairs Of the
House, where he will continue as
minority leader.
At a press conference yesterday
Mr.. Martin said House Republicans
would stand 100 per cent back of
the war effort He said, however,
that the Republicans would insist
on drastic reductions in non military
expenditures. The American people
are strongly in favor of such reduc-
tions, he said.
Wants Better Representation.
Republicans will press for in
creased representation on House
standing committees in the new
Congress, Mr.. Martin said. He ex-
pressed confidence they would get
it, adding that he would take the
matter up with Speaker Rayburn
and Majority Leader Mccormack.

g. DO not place prepared cans in

There is a growing feeling among

satisfaction of the voters with the
manner in which the war agencies

cauliflower, eggplant, watermelons,
bleached celery, head lettuce, green
peppers, asparagus and artichoke.
In general, the maximum sug-
gested acreage for these vegetable
crops range ON a national basis from

Marlin Resignation
May Boost Power
OF Midwest COP
Schroeder of Chicago
Held Likely Successor
As National Chairman
By GOULD LINCOLN.

When Chairman Joseph w.
Martin, jr., of the Republican
National Committee announced
yesterday he was resigning that
Office, he paved the way for a
more important place for the
Midwest in the COP national
organization. His successor is
more than likely to be Werner
Schroeder of Chicago, Illinois
member of the committee.
At the same time Mr.. Martin,
who is from Massachusetts, and is
House minority leader, game impetus
to the often talked of plan for
joint congressional committee on
conduct of the war. He declared
himself in favor of the idea. He
will discuss the matter with Senate
Minority Leader McNary and with
Senator Vandenberg, Republican, OF
Michigan before finally deciding on
details of a resolution providing
for such a committee.
Senator McNary also said he
favored the plan for a point war
committee. 1t is time, he said, that
Congress and the American people
had fuller information.
Dirksen Proposed AZ Members.
n The Democrats have control of
both the House and Senate. II
enough of them fall in with the
joint committee plan, 1t can be
adopted.
Representative Dirksen, Repubh-
can, OF Illinois already has proposed
a committee of AZ members, 81 from
each house. Mr.. Martin regards
that number as too large for an
effective committee.
Selection of a new Republican
national chairman will be made at
a COP committee meeting Mr.. Mar
tin has called for December 7 in
St. Louis. In picking st. Louis,
Mr.. Martin had in mind recogniz-
ing Missouri Republicans, who in
last Tuesdays elections won eight
out of the 13 congressional dis
tricts.
The Midwest took the lead in
bringing the Republican party back
to life in 1910. The Republican
swing in that area was continued
in last Tuesdays elections. The Mid
west Republicans believe they are
entitled to greater committee rep
resentation. AS the committee now
is constituted, its chairman, two
of the four vice chairmen, secretary,
treasurer and general counsel all
are from the East.
Other Chairman Candidates.
In addition to Mr.. Schroeder those
suggested for chairman include
Harrison Spangler of Iowa and
Ralph Gates of Indiana. David S.
ingalls, of Ohio might be put for
ward. However, he has been closely
allied politically with Senator Taft,
Republican, of Ohio, who was a
candidate for the presidential NOM
ination in 1910 and a possible con-
tender in 1914.
When Mr.. Martin, who became
national chairman at the instance
of Wendell L. Willkie after Mr..
Willkie was nominated for Pres
ident in 1910, wished to retire more
than a Year ago, he was pursuaded
to continue in Office largely in order
to avoid contest between the
Willkie, Dewey and Taft forces over
selection of new chairman.
1t is not believed any of the 1914
presidential candidate possibilities
will object strenuously to Mr..
Schroeder. Illinois, 1t is true, has
potential presidential candidates of
its own-Gov. Dwight Green and

Meanwhile Bobby Estalella's field

coupled with his recent creaky
batting, is serving to bench the

he was swinging potent bat, but

Cullenbine, who entrained for st.
Louis from Philadelphia on Sunday
to pack his belongings, informed
Griffith he would arrive here in time
to participate in tonight's tiff with
Cleveland starting at 8 o'clock.
Should Cullenbine arrive in time,
he will be inserted in left field, with
George Case shifting to right. Cul-

in the batting order, incidentally
following Case, Stan Spence and
Mickey Vernon.

Tables Turned
As Reds Sweep
Braves Series
Third, Fifth Berths
Snapped in 6 Tits;
Yonks OutsIug Tribe
BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer

Houdini at his best could not have
turned the tables on the Boston
Braves as swiftly and completely as
the Cincinnati Reds performed the
trick this last week end. -.
Before Friday the Reds were
fioundering futilely in the second
division of the National League and
the Braves, who had been a bold
second for quite a spell. still wera
holding determinedly to third place.
Then Casey Stengel led his band
into an ambush at Cincinnati and
in four days the Reds beat the
Braves six times-lifting Cincinnati
to third and dropping Boston "a
groggy fifth.
The Reds completed their sweep
yesterday with 81 triumph on the
three-hit hurting of big Paul Der
ringer.
Second Win for Derringer.
For eight innings the right-hand-
er had no-hit game and the only
Boston player to get on base reached
first through an error in the OPEN
ing inning. Derringer finally was
tapped for three singles and a run
in the ninth.
1t was Derringer's second success
OF the season. He didn't win his
first game till May Is and last
week was beaten 81 in 10 innings
by the Phils after allowing only
three hits and no earned runs in the,
regulation nine innings.
There was only one other game
scheduled in the major leagues
yesterday and in this the New York
Yankees squeezed out an lilo
decision over Cleveland when Relief
Pitcher Tom Ferrick made a wild
throw on Joe Gordons sacrifice
bunt with two on base in the llth
inning
Old-fashioned Slugfest.
1t was suitable payoff for a
game in which each club used three
pitchers and the world champions
made Is hits and three errors to
Cleveland'S IS hits and two miscues.
Ken Keltner made five hits and
jeff Heath produced his seventh
and eighth home runs of the year
and singled home the tying run
in the ninth inning after Keltner
had tripled.
Cleveland could have recaptured
second place in the American
League from the idle Detroit Tigers
by winning. but the Yankees made
1T their 26th triumph in 81 AS a

hitting streak to Is games and
