PHIL MAST ISN'T
1.-THE PHIL MAST

FORT LOGAN, Colo, June 8 =
tREIt's happened again to Pic.
Phil Mast of the Bronx.
He's been mistaken for the Bos-
ton. Braves catcher of the same
name every time he arrives at
a new station.
This time it was proclaimed in
print that the catcher had arrived
and he again denied it, much to
the disgust of the managers of the
team he was supposed to join.
At least once Private Mast, who
knows practically nothing about
catching, wished that he were the
catcher. That was, back in fort
Dix where for % days he had no
KIP duty and wondered why. He
learned when the sergeant came
around and dumped a catche7's
outfit in front of him. Private
Mast confessed and the next day
he was on KIP and the day follow
ing he was shipped out.

By WHITNEY MARTIN

NEW YORK, June D. AThere
has been considerable comment
mostly condemnatory, on the fact
that more than $4,000, 1000 was wa
gered at horse race tracks Memoir
fal Day, the idea being that such
a sum is a sad commentary or
the American scene, although in
theory there would seem to be nc
difference between 10 people bet.
ting $50,000,0 900 and $4,000, 900 peo-
pie betting $40
That is, if gambling is wrong a
dime can be just as wrong as a
million dollars. The amount involv-
ed makes no difference, except
that large-scale betting is more liza
BILE to escape punishment than pen
ny-ante batting, the same as fel-
low is liable to go to Jail for steal
ing loaf of bread and be turned
loose on parole if he steals mil
lion bucks.
One of the theories advanced for
the Acknowledged betting figure
Memorial Day is that it is due to
the impulse to Give long time in
a single moment" although that
probably isn't the general idea. We
think the real reason ie that ever
present urge to try to get some
thing for nothing. In this case it
would mean outsmarting the
horses, although that never can be
done as long as the horses don't
bet on people. Which, probably, is
what they mean by horse sense.
A pastor is bewildered by the
fact you can't raise $4,000 for re-
pairs on church, yet people have
$10,0O0000 to bet on horse races.
The inference there is that the peo-
pie betting the s1O,OOO,OOO don't 60

them to make a book on the work

horse track betting they could raise
the money in a jiffy.
The whole thing SINNERS down
to the idea that a mans money
is his to do with as he pleases,
and if he wants to buy hay with it
and doesn't want to contribute to
something generally regarded as
worth while that's his business,
whether you like it or not. When
you start to tell a man how to
spend his money you're treading
on dangerous ground,
Getting back to the $4,000, 900
wagered Memorial Day. Who
makes it possible to bet like that?
Why, the legislators, of course, Il
it is wrong and the citizens don't
want such a situation, it's up to
them to elect lawmakers who think
the same as they do. The current
lawmakers in states where thew
have pari-mutuel betting think such
gambling is okay, and those law
makers represent the people.
Well, we didn't put any of that
$4,000, 900 through the meat grind
er, so it's no skin off our nose.
It's interesting to note the reaction
to such astronomical betting, how
ever. The tracks are operating
within the law and the people are
blowing their own money there, so
there doesn't seem much that can
be done about it without either
outlawing the betting or seeing that
the people don't have any money
of their own. The tracks are doing
the best they can to take care of
that latter situation.

DR.. J. Warren Hastings of Wash
ington, D. c., was the speaker at
the weekly meeting of the Lions
club yesterday at the Friendly res
taurant. DR.. Hastings spoke on
the 1.-THE Meaning of the Invasion
to YOU" ssse
''In the first place., he said,
''this invasion that is now going on
means to us that democracy can
work and is working in the great
teamwork and cooperation that is
symbolized in the struggle.
"Also, there is the aspect Of ire
mendous suffering that is tied up
with this experience. 1t is a time
when we see suffering throughout
the world and when we must share
the sufferings of one another. We
are seeing that we are bound to-
gether in common world and
have common destiny.
"Another aspect of the meaning
Of the invasion mentioned by the
speaker was that we are seeing our
ideals and ways of life vlndlcated
while those of Hitler and Musso-
lini and TOTO are being clearly and
forever repudiated. .
In conclusion the speaker said,
eve must see in this struggle the
great challenge to all of us to
help build a world where such will
never happen again. A new. worlc
is in the making and all OF Us
must dedicate ourselves to the task
of making this kind of world
where humanity can live in peace
and happiness.
