BRAVES STILL
OPTIMISTIC
FACE COMING MAJOR LOOP
SEASON WITH ABOUT SAME
OUTLOOK AS PAST YEAR

Alp Features.
as BOSTON, Feb. 5.-With only II
of their 1912 players missing, in
Guiding the Internationally releas-
ed Johnny Cooney' and Paul Wa
ner, the Boston Braves face their
second wartime National league
season with about the same slight
degree of optimism they did a year
ago.
Just now Manager Casey STEM
gel can count upon only 20 players
when he starts spring training
at The Choate School in Walling-
ford, Conn, late in March. But
most likely, Owner Bob Quinn will
Gull many of the most promising
prospects on his farm teams to
give Stengel the player strength
he desires.
Four Young Outfielders
While veterans Cooney and Wa
r1er are suspected of having good
outfielding left in their aging
systems, Quinn, despite present
conditions which put high pre-
MUM on. experience has decided
to depend upon four young 3-A
draft card holders, Chef Ross,
Nanny Fernandez, Make West and
Tommy Holmes, for his fly-chas-
ing. Only the latter has displayed
any kind of batting proves in a
Boston uniform.
Stenqel also should have a
fairly tight infie1d with Johnny
Mccarthy. Giant castoff. on
first base. Whitley Wietelman on
second. Eddie Joost. who came
from Cincinnati in the Eddie
Miller deal, at short. and the
aged Tony Cuccinello on third.
That quartet should. be fairly
stylish afield. but few have any
sound reason to expect much
from them around the plate.
About the only consistent hit
ting Stengel has a right to expect
would come from his No. l back
stop, Big Ernie lombard, the
leagues 800 biting champion.
LON, naturally, can not catch ev-
cry day and his offensive punch
will be lacking whenever Phil
Mast or Clyde Kluttz spell him.
At least that's what happened LIST
season.
Dent In Hurting Corps
|. The armed forces did put rath-
er deep dent in the Braves pitch
ing corps but Stengel still has
such capable draft-exempt chuck
.ers as Jim Tobin, Lefty Willard
Donovan, Lou Tost, Al Javery and
Frank Lamanna. Southpaw War
rem, recalled from Hartford last
season, is the only A-ler on the
Braves list and, as such, he eX-
poets to be indicted long before
spring training starts.
Since Pearl Harbor, the Braves
have contributed IL. players to the
armed services. The first to go
were Sailor Bill Posedel, 'Bama
Rowell and Bob Williams, left
handed pitching rookie, before the
opening of the 1912 season. Since
lit closed, Buddy Gremp and john
ny Sain, now taking naval avla-
ton training with Red. Seekers,
Ted Williams and Johnny Pesky
have suspended their baseball
careers for the duration.
And so have Jim Wallace, Bob
Detweilee, Sebby Sisti, Al Rob-
erage, Tommy Farley, Frank Nc
Elyea and Art 0eftD Johnson,
all of whom saw considerable ser1
vice with the Braves last season.

Romans Used Conveys to
Clear Pirates From Sea

Conveying ships goes back to ear
ly Roman times, says the National
Geographic society. Pirates were
the enemies that first made convoy
necessary.
Rome's early pirate destroyers
copied the light swift galleys of the
Liburnians, maritime people who
lived on Adriatic shores. The Ro-
mans increased the speed Of sail
with rows of oars. After Pompey
cleared the Mediterranean of pi-
rates, communications still had to
be guarded to frontiers beyond.
Piracy later became more men
acing, often encouraged by nations
to block trade rivals. Protection
from pirates was one of the reasons
for the Hanseatic league of German
port cities. AS soon as merchant
vessels became virtually warships.
they could protect themselves when
sailing together in fleet. At first
voluntary, such cooperation was
later regulated by law.
England built "a men-of-war to OPP
pose Spain's ''Invincible Armada"
but most of the British feet in the
engagement of 1888 was made up Of
merchant vessels manned by their
regular crews. Merchant seamen
constituted a naval reserve, and
when captured were treated as pris.
oners Of war.

Diary of a Broadcaster

Over the land, the Victory gardens
are bringing in their rich yields to
many person who probably never
worked as MISUNDERSTANDING his
supper before. And probably never
had more fresh, sweet and luscious
vegetables.
But I wandered over a farm re-
Gently that was crying for rain. I
couldn't help thinking, as I pushed
through wood lot beside shrunk-
en- stream, stained brown from the
yellow leaves that carpeted it, how
all the living things were anguish
ing with thirst. Twigs snapped I'M
der ones feet like dry bones, there
was an ugly growl instead Of hap
py hum from the insects-it seemed
that only the tough blue-bottles could
survive. Not far from the stream
where the earth in the bed Of a
spring was still damp, one cricket
was singing gratefully but there
were few of his fellows about.
Leaves on tall weeds hung to the
stem like flag at half-staf on a
day when no breeze stirs, one yell
low-headed flower stood out in spot
of color, it looked like very sleepy
little girl, her damp locks glued to
her face almost concealing her tired
smile.

WOMEN'S CORPS IN
PEACE TIME
By Edith N. Rogers
Representative, Mass.)

(WNU Feature-Through special arrange.
ment with Woman's Home Companion.)
When the war is over the armed
services should continue to have
women serving in their ranks. ]
was convinced that the army and
navy would need women to replace
men in certain duties after the last
world war. But it was rs years be-
fore I was able to get through con-
greSS measure which created the
Women's. Army Auxiliary corps.
Since then the navy, coast guard
and marine corps have created units
for women. I believe the whole
country has approved.
Now is the time to make provision
to keep women in these services on
permanent full-time basis. I'M
mediately! Because war is like a
food or a hurricane. AS soon as it
is over people lose interest in pre-
pairing against recurrence. Be-
cause in the inevitable cutting down
of the armed services to peacetime
size one of the first units to face
the ak, if only because it is the new
est, could be the women's corps.
Because some, weary Of the strain
of war, will want the illusion that
all can be as it was before the war
began. They will try to force all
women out of the factories, the pro-
LESSONS, the armed services, try to
relegate them back to homework.
We must plan to fit certain num-
Der of women into our postwar eco
nomic life.
The woman in uniform has served
as well in this war and the services
have had opportunity to learn how
valuable she can be. Lieut.. Gen.
Brehon B. Somervell, anxious to
determine what his officers thought
of the work done by WACs, sent
out inquiries to the men of his COM
mand. The replies were highly
laudatory.
Volunteers for Africa.
Certainly there can be no question
Of the women's spirit. Recently, for
example, Director Oveta Culp Hob
by went before two companies Of
WACs in Daytona, Fla. There was
need of a contingent Of WACs in
North Africa. After pointing out
the dangers of the journey and the
perils of the war theater, Mrs. Hob
by called for volunteers. She hoped
to get enough to make respectable
showing. She got 300-every woman
in the two companies. This display
of spirit, I think, explains why Of
ficers of the regular services-who
were skeptical about women in the
ranks, are now enthusiastic. Will

Business cannot take over the buzz

Business cannot take over the bur.
den alone. In 1889, we were at
peace although we were making q
lot Of war supplies for the Allies.
Then Al million workers were EN-.
ployed In munitions making. Eight
and six-tenths millions were work.
ing on farms or agricultural pur-
suits. At the end of last year, the
workers in war plants had more
than doubled. They were 1915 mill
lions. In agriculture, unemployment
has not greatly changed, compare
lively speaking; farm workers
amount to 8.9 millions. But the men
in the armed forces more than dou-
bled. In the same period the I'M
employed had decreased from 81
millions to l million (Some Of these
we shall always have with us-the
lame, the halt and, Of course, the
lazy.) But it is estimated there
were 900, 900 persons jobless and de.
serving work in July Of this year.
There may be points to the com.
mittee's plan to which objections
will be raised. It is not offered as
a working drawing, merely as q
basis Of discussion, but how much
better such a procedure is than the
policy after the last war when the
soldier was football and where
each congress tried to vote more
dollars out Of the treasury without
rhyme or reason; money which
didn't provide jobs, which in many
cases, pitifully failed Of its purpose.
and in others simply filed the cof-
fers Of the bootlegger and the shark
and left the recipient nothing.

the armed forces need women after
the war? OF course! The army and
navy will need them as a nucleus
for the force they will require if
we again become involved in war.
During the truce between the world
wars I urged congress to appropri-
ate money SO the army could place
educational orders with manufacture
ers. The purpose was to create in
industry skeleton force trained for
war work. I think Of the women's
corps Of the army and navy in the
same way.
The English maintained small
force Of women in their armed serv-
ices during the years after the last
war. When large force was need
ed, they had the foundation upon
which to build. In this country, it
was year before we could get the
women's service into action. Dur
ing that time thousands Of soldiers
were modified in noncombatant
jobs which could have been handled
as well by women. We cannot again
afford such loss of time.
The armed services have learned
that there are many jobs which
men are glad to get away from and
which women perform with enthu-
siasm. For example, men don't like
to be telephone operators. Women
In uniform have gladly undertaken
this job, and should continue in it as
well as In similar jobs as interpret
ers, clerks and weather bureau
workers.
In years to come there will be
new emphasis on certain activities
in the armed services which have
only recently become important. We
shall always want to have regular
airplane warning network as part
of our defense system. This will re-
quire a trained personnel which
should be under army supervision.
There will be little point in training
a large staff of able-bodied men for
this kind of work. Let the women
handle it.
Nurses Set Precedent.
There is precedent. The army
long ago established it by including
women in permanent status by the
creation of the nurse corps. Re-
Gently the army also made provision
for women dietitians and physio-
therapists.
1t is impossible to estimate today
how many women the services will
need in peacetime. Certainly the
army and navy should admit as
many as they can use. 1t will
not be hard to find them-wOmen
feel there can be no greater privi-
lege than to serve under our flag.

Boards PRINCIPLES

OVsSFo FtE1CtptGS
Business has been shuh1ed and
shifted about just as the men them
selves have. 1t may be difficult to
get man and job together. The
problem is intricate but the COM
mittee has tried to lay down certain
principles. Here they are:
!. Three months furlough at the
end of the war at regular base pay
not to exceed 500 month, plus
family allowances.
2. Beyond that time, if necessary,
unemployment insurance for 26
weeks for those who register with
the government employment serv-
ice.
3. Special aid and counsel regard
ing readjustment and compensation.
4. Special provision, including tut
ton and allowance, for the continu-
alton of education interrupted by the
war or to follow a special course of
training.
5. Veterans credit for old age and
survivors insurance on the basis of
service in the armed forces.
6, Opportunities for agricultural
employment and settlement for
limited number of we'll qualified
men.
Retaining Program
Similar provisions must be made
for war workers as war industries
close or change over. Meanwhile,
the government will maintain cen
tiers where assistance and refrain
ing for civilian jobs can be arranged.
In order to prevent a too rapid at
tempt at change-over of industry,
moderate policy Of continuation of
war contracts some of which can be
continued in the national good.
Already industry is offering plans
Of its own but it cannot be expected
to do the whole job. One suggestion
is that government loans be made to
industries turning to peace-time pro-
duction in proportion to the number
Of men such industries employ.
