Hurting Main Problem
Of High Mines With
Race Start Near
Few Veteran Pitchers
In Schools; Anucostio
OutfieId Is Sturdy
BY GEORGE HUBER.

Pitching. or lack of it, is the big
headache troubling high school base
oall coaches this week as their mines
60 into action. The championship
series begins next week and as vet
hardly a, sound hurler has been de-
veloped.
With the exception of Wilson s
Jack Ogle. there isn't a pitcher
around who rated even honorable
mention on last seasons all-high
teams. And Ogle won't be available
for another several weeks because of
a recent operation Such boys as
Aaron Weisenberg of Central. Elmer
'Leukhardt of Anacostia and Charley
Hines of Western are missing from
the scene this year.
Roosevelt has one who may be
among this seasons leaders in Leigh
JOY. He was around last year and
turned in several creditable games
before scholastic ineligibility forced
him from action. He has control
of his books now and also control of
good fast ball. He's cool with men
on base and may be one of the best
this time.
Lenarduzzi Is Eastern Vet.
Dave Lenarduzzi of Eastern is an
other veteran, He wasn't EaStern's
top finger last wear. but he did see
enough action to earn letter. A
tall boy. he, too, has plenty of zip
on his tosses.
Aside from these there are no
veterans and few of the newcomers
have satisfied coaches with their
early showings. Joe Tucker of
Central may be okay and figures to
help his mound work with some
timely hitting. In fact, he's such
handynan at the plate that Coach
Jan Jankowski is using him in the
outfeld when hes not pitching. At
the other schools--Western, Tech.
Anacostia and Coolidge the mound
talent doesn't appear impressive.
Best of AnacoStia mound corps is
Harry Swisher, little l20-pounder,
and Coach Tommy Nolan isn't
claiming he's the best in town. Back
ing him up are Paul Benner and
Bill Kline. The Indians all around
are young outfit, but might turn
out some good games If the pitching
holds together. Their hitting is good
and fielding not TOO bad from what
they show in practice, but they will
be strictly an unknown quantity
before the series opens because their
first game is against Central's de-
fe-. Sing champions next Tuesday.
80 Anacostia Infield Uncertain.

hits a good. long ball. is set for first

Secretary Hull asserted that this
country had done much during the
past 10 years for the South Ameri-
can countries under the good neigh
Dor policy land that policy has paid
dividends as you all know. The
peoples and governments in other
American republics are co-operat-
ing with us in every way. We have
helped them and they are help
ing us"
But, in his swan song as head Of
the Antitrust Division of the JUS
tlce Department, Thurman Arnold,
now jut.iscc in the Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia, told
the committee:
What is the use of talking about
reciprocal trade treaties in South
America. We have secret organiza-
tions operating. What did the Ger
mans do? You can work this cartel
system with a dictator, if you have
no regard for a profit
I'VE have situation" Mr.. Arnold
said, where Germany is going into
South America and we are losing
money there"
THE public" he said, knows
nothing about all this. and we make
reciprocal trade treaties, and these
things are meaningless with the ex-
istence OF these cartels.
Frankly all of the mechanical
developments of the future are now
in the control of various cartels.
people who want to fix quotas, peo-
pie who want to establish a kind of
industrial bureaucracy. So that the
only people who can go into the bus
mess are the people who are selected
by that group
Cartel War for Control.
He argued that the current cartel
war lis not so much a struggle to
make money but a struggle to get
control after the war"
Since the hope of victory has
come we find people coming to this
country from all over the world rep
resenting the cartel, wanting to
make postwar plans and here is
the antitrust division standing in
their way" he asserted.
Representa- tive Stefan Republican,
Of Nebraska, member of the COM
mittee, declared that this country
now was investing approximately
81 900 ,000000 in South America and
asked what would become of that in
vestment in the postwar period.
Il am asserting that if the cartel
system is not broken up, that 81
600 100000 will revert automatically
to a few private groups. and it is a
matter Of pubic record that Ameri-
can companies have agreed to get
out Of South America after the

Hull Firm in Holding
North African Politics
Secondary 10 Victory
Tells House Committee
Chief Concern Now
Is to Win the War
BY the Associated Press.

Congress was informed politely
but firmly today that the State De-
partment's policy in North Africa
was based on winning the war. Sec
retary Hull put it thus:
I'VE knew that we would get into
a hopeless tangle if we stopped fight
ing to take up politics"
In testimony made public by the
House Appropriations Committee.
Mr.. Hull was asked for statement
on the African diplomatic situa-
tion,' and replied there is not much
to that whole thing except talk
about politics and conditions among
Frenchmen and others on the polit-
ical side"
1--WE have never had but one policy
there" he told the committee, land
that was to deal militarily and help
militarily everybody who was fight
ing the Axis powers. If the French
men there were fighting OF opposing
the Axis powers we.Would work with
them and help them militarily, as
we dld With the De Gaulle group
when we gave them lease lend
recognition
Il think" he declared. that they
lthe FRENCH had about Is or 30
different political parties as they
moved into the war. We figured that
the thing for us to do was to devote
all of our attention that is for tho
Army, the Navy and the State De-
partment, to winning battles and
winning the war.
We know that we must win this
war and let everybody have their
freedom, and then let them have a
tar opportunity to select their own
leaders and their own form of GOV
eminent. All of this talk has been
because we did not abandon that
policy and plunge into this political
maelstrom."

from l 10 5 or 6 pei

The city already deducts 8
per cent from the pay checks

5 or 6 per cent for social Sc
curity would be too big a burden
for them to bear.
Besides, the city retirement
system gives employees many
advantages not offered by social
security. In fact, we have In
quired from insurance companies
and find IL would cost 500 n
year for a retirement policy
comparable with our city PEN
sions. We don't think employees
with an adequate retirement
