The True Role

The true role, in determining to
embrace or reject anything, is not
whether it have any evil in it, but
whether it have more of evil than
of good.
There are few things wholly evil
or wholly good. Almost every
thing, especially of government
policy, is an inseparable compound
of the two, so that our best judg-
ment of the preponderance be-
tween them is continually demand

Dr. John Earl Baker Says Burma Road Is Still Operating

NEW YORK. = A conglomerate
throng of men, women and children
of many stations in life who escaped
the fast-spreading tide of war in the
Far East, arrived in this port
aboard an American ship which had
been more than month at sea.
Military regulations prohibit dis
closure of the name or route of the
vessel, but her sos passengers con-
stituted a cross section of the east
ern war zone.

embarkation points in many strange
ways. There were people who had
fled the Dutch East Indies; there
were British merchant sailors whose
ships had been shot from under
them; there were Americans from
many eastern cities; there were
navy men whose ships had been lost.
Among the sos were 1876 Ameri-
cans, including wives and children;
81 East Africans, presumably from
lost British ships, and 80 British
seamen who had escaped to various
ports after the sinking of their ships.

Among them was DR.. John Earl
Baker, former director general of
the Burma Road Transportation
bureau, who said that although the
fall of Rangoon had shut off the rail
end of the Burma road there was
still enough war material hidden
away in mountain valleys to keep
trucks moving over the road for two
or three years.

THIS may be disturbing news for
l Larry MacPhail, who doesn't
disturb easily or softly. Sam
Breadon, owner of the Cardinals,
says this 1912 collection might be
the best Cardinal team of all time.
1--WE had a great team in 1926
the year we trimmed the Yankees"
Sam remarked. eve had another
great team in 1881, and still an
other in 1894 when the Gashouse
Gang with Dizzy Dean and Pepper
Martin were riding high. But it
wouldn't surprise me to see this
bunch we are looking at now turn
out to be our all-time top. This is
certainly the best pitching staff we
ever had, and one of the best all
around teams in every department"
"MacPhail says his Dodgers are
much stronger than last year and
after a few early f1urries should
never be headed" we told Breadon.
"His Dodgers had better not have
too many early fiurries," Sam said.
Brooklyn has good ball club, but
we have a better one. We have bet
ter pitching and more speed. And
if our club had any more spirit
it might explode. Billy Southworth
has the entire squad hustling to the
limit-and l can tell you now those
Dodgers will be seeing Red Wings
in their broken dreams this sum-
mer. They'll be after those Dodgers
from the first game to the finish.
Everything Necessary
''Look this ball club over" Bread
on said. eve have all the catching
any team needs, and the best pitch
ing staff in either league, so far as
both quality and quantity go.
"Youn be hearing from this kid
POllet ak season. He isn't 81 vet,
but he works like ten-year veteran.
He hasn't binding speed, and he
hasn't any back-breaking curve ball.
But he is smart, cool, cunning and
tough fellow to beat.
Sand Pollet isn't the only one.
We have at least ten high-grade
pitchers, although one or two could
use little more experience. Mum

ger has world of stuff. You know
about Warneke, White, Cooper,
Lanier, Shoun, and Krist, who won
all the ten games he pitched last
year.
Trade our infield for the Dodg-
ers? Nothing doing. Hopp and
Sanders are both good first base
men. Crespi, Marion and Brown are
ball players of top rank. They give
us one of the best infields we ever
had.
Gin my opinion, Terry Moore de-
fenSively is the finest Outfielder I
ever saw. He can cover all the
ground that Speaker or DiMaggio or
anyone else ever covered-and may
be a few yards more. And Moore
is also a 300 hitter. He is a ball
player who has never received the
publicity he deserved. If Terry
hadn't been hurt in the stretch last
fall we'd have been going away from
Brooklyn at the finish.
"Enos Slaughter is another fine,
outielder. And keep your eye on
kid called Musial. Hopp can play
the outfeld as well as first base.
And Hopp can hit and rum
These are the disturbing items we
think Larry MacPhail should know
about. Sam Breadon gives Mac,
Phail credit for being one of the
smartest showmen, promoters and
handy guys baseball has seen. But
Breadon has an idea that Mac
Phail has moderated this Cardinal
team, and the Dodger chief with
Leo Durocher may be in for num-
Der of nervous shocks.
1t Might Haze Been
81 don't think they quite under
stand just what would have hap
pened to the Dodgers if we had had
as many of our regulars in action
as they had last year. It might have
been ,distressing-quite distressing.
It might not even have been close"
From here we turned to the spirit
of Cardinal players through the
years. They have been the Notre
Dame of baseball.
"We've looked for two things"
Breadon said, "speed and spirit. We
want ball players who love to play
baseball, who like to hustle and who
are out to win. Last year the Cardi-
mails were crashing into fences, dug
outs, anything in the road, to win
a ball game.
''In that Southwest country from
where many of the great ball play
ers. come, baseball is the greatest
game in the world. Football is next.
Most of them, like Dean and Martin
and many more, come up the hard
way. They know how to take a
beating and come tearing back"
We made an attempt to get Mac
Phail on the phone along the east
coast of this tropical peninsula in
order to break the bad news as
quickly as possible. Having no ear
for music, we like to hear MacPhail
roar.
There isn't any doubt that Mac
Phail is completely confident his
Dodgers can win again, with more
room to spare. There is also no
doubt that Sam Breadon feels the
same way about his Cardinals. And
all this has no propaganda tinge.
This happens to be the way they
feel about things, and neither is shy.

AWARD TO BE MADE FOR RESIDENTIAL
 DECORATION. JULY 4

Juneau residents with imagina- tion and artistic trends in exterior decoration will have an opportunity to display their talent on the Fourth of July, when S25 bond, to be known as the John Jones Memorial Bond, will be given for the best patriotic decoration at any residence. The bond will be pre- sented by the Rotary Club of Ju- neau, with members of the organ ization as judges in the contest.
 Use of flowers in forming patri- otic motifs on lawns is particu- larly suggested by members of the Board of Directors, at whose noon meeting the decision to make the award was concluded. Other sug- gestions involve the use of bunting or flags.
 The award is made in memory of the late John w. Jones, whose great civic interest took particular pride in any move to beautify or improve the appearance of the city

RUBBER DRIVE LAGGING WITH 4 DAYS 10 GO
Only LitfIe More fhan Sev- en Tons Have Been
 Turned In

With only four more days left for the current rubber salvage cam paign, Chairman Tom Dyer esti- mated today that there are approXi- mately ten tons more of waste rub Der in and around Juneau that could be turned in.
 At present, the scrap piles in Ju- neau Motors and Bowling and Day. lin Co. measure up to only slight ly more than seven tons Among companies which have cooperated whole -heartedly in the drive are the Alaska Juneau Mining Company, the Alaska Light and Power Com pany, Pan American Airways.
 Frank Dufresne, of the Alaska Game Commission, while on an of ficial business trip to Haines, talked the Army into sponsoring the cam paign there. In addition, Dufresne brought in a load from the beach yesterday and says that anyone with Ian auto can take drive out the highway and pick up several hun dred pounds of the scrap off the beach.
 Dyer emphasized that most of the rubber turned in so far has been the easy-to-get scrap, and that there are many tons more that should be turned in.
 The Boy Scouts distributed pam phlets yesterday and are making house to house collections of the scrap.
 Rubber may be turned in simply by leaving it in box for your grocery delivery man to pick up. You can either donate it free or collect one cent a pound on it. If you expect to be paid, you must deliver the scrap to one of the sal wage depots in person.
