work.
This being the first game of
the air basers, there isn't much
comment to be made on the
type of team they have. However,
it is the consensus of opinion that
the game will be close and a hard
fought victory for the winner.
The Mules have at the present
three veterans of last years squad
in it's infield.. Turner will be hit
ting in the cleanup slot since he
was one of the most consistent hit
ters last season. The nod for the
lead-off man goes to the veteran
third sacker, Hank" Moore.
In the absence of the Post Com
ander, Col. Edwin N. Hardy, the
honor Of tossing the first ball of
the opening game has been
granted to the Post Executive
Officer, 1t. Col. Roscoe L. Lamb.
Serving as his catcher will be the
Fost Adjutant, Major Henry r.
Hansen.
The probable starting pitcher is
Sgt. Anthony MOuton of the Casual
Detachment. Mouton, WHO has five
years experience as a hurler will
attempt to win his first game under
the colorS of the Fort. Before enter
ing the service, he was a pitcher
with various semi-pro teams in
Louisiana, with his last one being
the Lafayette Red SoX. For the past
two seasons, he has been hurting
for the Post All Stars of Fort Glenn,
Alaska. Of the five games, Fort
Glenn won last season, Mouton was
the winning pitcher of three OF
them. In the past two years Mou-
tons record reads eight won and
four lost The intense cold caused
the season in Alaska to be shortened
considerably.
Thus far, Mouton has shown signs
of having everything needed to be
the star hurler for the Mules. this
season. He has speed, control and
his curve is clean and sharp. With
the cooperation. of his teammates,
he should go far this year, BY mid
season, Mouton should be at his
peak and win more than his. share
of the games.
Other pitchers standing by for fu-
ture games and relief hurlings are
Martin, Scales, Lloyd and Jackson.
Scales, a veteran from last year,
will more than likely take care of
the relief hurting assignments.
For brief recapitulation of the
Mules record last season. they were
the winners of II of the % appear
anceS made. They won both the
Southern Security District of the
Ninth Service Command and the
Arizona State championships. The
state championship was won from
Williams Field, Arizona, in close
game by score of, 1919. Mccoy,
Cooper, Davis, and Branson were
used to win the game, with Mccoy
bearing the brunt of the battle.
AT the end of the first half of. the
ninth inning, the. Forters were trail
ing by score of 9-7 Then the fire
works began Moore, the lead-off
man in that frame, singled. Wright,
on an infield out, advanced Moore
to second Worthy doubled but the
fast relay from the field held Moore
on third, Young flied out to the in
field. Green hit a line drive through
the infield, good for two bases and
Moore and Worthy scampered across
the plate. Turner got clean single

MIND READERS. DISAGREE

The latest court decision in the Mont
gomery Ward case decides nothing on the
merits of the labor issue out of which the
controversy grew. All the decision amounts
TO is that the words used in an act of Con-
gresS to promote the prosecution of a war
must be given broader meaning than
might otherwise be warranted Even as to
the broader meaning, the Judge in the
lower court and the judges in a higher
court disagreed
The point of interest to business is
that the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals, by
two to one decision reversing the lower
court, held that the act giving the Presi-
dent the right to seize "any plant, mine or
facility equipped for the manufacture pro-
duction or mining of any articles or mate
rails which may be required for the war
effort, is elastic enough to include mail
order house or other establishment en-
gagged exclusively in the distribution of
consumer goods. What the United States
Supreme Court will hold remains to be
seen.
With such confusion in court decisions
on congressional acts, it is obvious that
Congress will have to be more specific in
making its meaning clear in legislation it
passes, rather than leaving to judges the
of its thoughts.

"As long as public power plants OPP

Uncle Louie knew that the

Madge would settle his fate, one
way or another. His freedom or
captivity would depend entirely
upon her reaction. Well, here
goes, he thought, assuming shy
ness as he hopefully inquired,
"You-you do want John back,

"How - how - did. you know

managed to ask.

Uncle Louie WINGED painfully.
"Please-please, don't remind me

Madge's hand began to tremble
violently, nearly shaking the light

face. He knew what she was

from referring to him as the

GOVERNMENT MONEY

Interested Citizen" had letter in
Fridays Citizen, commenting on what
Judge Lord had to say about the 153 low
cost units the Navy is building on the John
son tract, near the South Beach, that is en-
tirely beside the point
Judge Lords position was correct: if
there is no necessity for the buildings, why
construct them? If they are necessary, why
not construct them substantially?
Interested Citizen takes the view
that many other Key Westers do about
government money" What is government
money? Doesn't Interested Citizen know
it is his money and his neighbours money
and the other fellows money? In view of
that fact, does Interested Citizen" waste
his own money or wish to waste it?
Of course, he gives no indication that
he goes as far as some Key Westers used
to go, up to the turn of the century, about
government money! In those days, if
Key Wester stubbed his toe against a curb
ing and sued the city for damages, he gen.
orally succeeded in finding jury of fell
low Key Westers that gave him damages
for this reason Jaw, what's the difference?
It's the city's money
The most important thing that Judge
Lord said that apparently was lost on en-
terested Citizen" was that private initia-
tive is the backbone of Americas economy.
Private initiative and enterprise have
brought the United States to where it is
today: the greatest nation in the world
and Judge Lord rightly took the position,
and cited an instance in his own case to
prove it, that the government should not
building and thereby throttle
private initiative and enterprise
AS the country's highest officials have
pointed out, the quickest way to restore
the country's economic conditions is the
restoration of private enterprise to its pre-
war status. 1t has been plain to see that
President Truman has that object in view,
and, incidentally, it may be said that he
has given us much reason to believe that
he will be among the country's great pres-
dents.
He is not tying himself down to party,
as good many other presidents have done.
He has shown a disposition to keep on the
right path by consulting Republicans as
we'll as Democrats, and the assurance that
the United Nations Charter will be adopted
by the senate is due more to him than to
any other man, chiefly because he has
neither said nor done anything that has dis
pleased the Republicans. Even that iron
clad Republican isolationist, Senator Hiram
johnson, of California, has intimated that
he will vote for the adoption of the charter.
Besides, President Truman has keen
sense of humor, that saving grace that so
many of our presidents have lacked.
Finally, did Interested Citizen" read
what President Truman said Friday about
spending government money, that is,
every interested citizens money, as well as
those citizens who are not interested?
After directing government agencies to ex-
ercise care in spending funds, he stated
that vigorous disciplinary action" will be
taken when evidence is submitted of mis-
use or careless handling of federal funds.

Here the nervous energy and
executive ability of yesterday
continue, but the nature is more
elastic and success will probably
be attained by diplomacy as much
as by the force of action or
energy. AS the day advances the
energy becomes less, but in most
cases this does not operate to the
detriment OF the native, since it
does not provoke SO much opposi-
ton.
