REDSKINS SCALP
BOSTON, Ella
Sharpshooting Filchock
Completes 10 Out Of
Is Passes.

BOSTON, Oct IS. -P)- The
Washington Redskins returned to
their National professional foot
ball league birthplace to scalp the
Boston Yanks, 21-14, today at Fen
way park. A AZ yard pass from pitt
ching Frank Filchock to Winger
Ted Lapka gave the victors their
winning touchdown early in the fin
al period.
The sharpshooting Filchock who
completed 10 of his 10 heaves, used
four of them to set up the Red
skins first two touchdowns, both
of which were made by Bob Sey-
mour, veteran fullback, on a one
yard plunge and a 16-yard dash
around his left wing, late in the
first period and midway in the
second.
The Yanks stormed back immed-
lately after Seymour's initial Sue
cess to tie the score on the fourth
play of the second period. While
the Yanks were driving 70 yards.
Bob Davis turned in a AZ yard
run before taking a 20 yard pass
from George Cafego for first
down on Washington's vineyard
line. Cafego then smashed over
his first scoring try.
Scotty Gudmundson's so-yard
scoring toss to Winger Joe Crow
ley and Augie Lio's second con.
version enabled the Yanks to dead
lock again midway through the
third period, after the latter had
missed placement field goal tries
from the Is and 40 yard stripes.
The fourth period opened with
the Redskins holding the ball or
their 80. Filchock moved them to
the 40 by passing to Wilbur Moore
and, after Seymour and Frank
Seno each rushed twice to Bos'
otn's AZ, the Redskins aerial ar
tiste Tipped his game winning ef
fort to Lapka.

Americans suffered the humiliation
of seeing the capital of their nation

home of their president in flames.
Despite this disaster which came
as the climax of other defeats on

Polk asked congress for dec
laration of war. 1t came on May
ID, 1916, and 10 days later Mexico
declared war on the United States.
Hostilities began soon afterwards,
our armies under General Taylor
and General Scott invaded Mexico
and within little more than a year
September IA, 1847) they had cap
tured the Mexican capital. The war
ended with the signing of treaty of
peace on February 2, 1848 - one
year, eight months and twenty days
after it began.
The next war in which we en-
gagged was another "undeclared
war" for, like its predecessor, it
was rebellion" and 'civil' war.
Just when the War Between the
States began is a matter of defini-
ton.
The usual view is that it was
April IL, 1861, when Confederate bat
teries in Charleston, S. c., fired on
Fort Sumter and the Union troops
in that fortification fired back. At
any rate, it was this act which
prompted President Lincoln three
days later to call for volunteers to
suppress the Instruction and
which resulted in four years of the
hardest and bloodiest fighting the
world had ever known up to that
time. Just as this war had no "offi-
cial' beginning, SO it had no "offi-
ciaP' ending. But the surrender of
Lee on April 9, 1865, sounded the
death knell of the Confederacy and
organized resistance by the men in
gray ended. From Sumter to Appa-
mattox it was four years - minus
three days.
Shortest of all our wars with a
foreign power was the "100-Days
War" with Spain in 1898. 1t had it's

Expect Government
To Take Lead

One is the tabulated result of a
poll made by the National Research
center expressly for Factory mag
azine, a McGraw-Hill publication,
and the other is statement, which
I heard recently. 1t was entirely
unofficial and surely an expression
of his own view, set forth by a
British diplomat.
The question which Factory mag
azine had asked of men earning hour
ly or piece wages only (no super
visors or foremen) was this:
"Who do you think will do the
most to solve the job problem after
the Wharf.-The government, the la
Dor leaders, or company heads?'
Forty-seven per cent of those
interviewed looked 10 govern
ment; "a per cent looked to COM
pany heads; IA per cent to labor
leaders; Is per cent undecided.
The opinion expressed by the dip
lomat was this:
AFTER the war we can look to-
ward a United Kingdom where con-
siderable government control is ex-
ercised ownership of railroads,
utilities, mines . . sort of socialis-
tic monarchy
Both these opinions together indi-
cate a trend in the thinking on both
sides of the At antic along parallel
lines. The American workman feels
that the American government will
take the responsibility for employ
ment after the war; the British Of
fetal feels that the British govern
ment will take over several of the
nations important industries.
More forms to make OUT if you
will.
Which brings us back to small
business. Committee Chairman Muir
ray, and Budget Director Smith,
and the promise of more help for
business with less forms to make
out, and (symbolically) we hope,
less actual domination of business
by government.
