Wartime Powers

If there were reason two years ago
.or the legislature TO clothe the gov
ernor with extraordinary wartime
emergency powers, there IS equally
as good reason noW that those pow
ers shall be extended. The IeglsIa-
are has been quick to sense the
condition and to meet il promptly
and without pickering in giving Gov
error Cherry the same authority con-
1erred upon Governor Broughtoa in
l943.
Very probably there will be no reason
for a further extension of this act,
While we long ago ceased trying to
predict the end Of the war, and OF
late have almost stopped ever think
ing about ii. perhaps it is not amIss
to surmise that at least in Europe
the fighting shall have ended ere
another State General Assembly
meets-in l947. There would Their
be no reason for extending these
mowers to the chief executive.
There will be no need to lear tina
Governor Cherry will misuse sucf
authority, just as his predecessor dlt
0 Both are sound public officials
and the one did not apply his en-
larged jurisdiction wrongtully and tn

Few Players
are Picked in
Baseball Draft

CHICAGO, Nov. 2 - (P -
There won't be many new faces
in baseballs major leagues IN
1946.
Many players in service will
be back and so will most of the
1945 cast but the rookie crop
appears slim.
Seven of the 16 major league
owners dug into the minor
league barrel of so-called talent
more than 5,400 players-at
the annual draft yesterday and
plucked out only nine men. Two
of them, Lou Novikoff and
Frank Demaree, carried the tag
of ex-big leaguers on their bill
of sale of $500 each.
The last place Philadelphia
Phillies, second club to make a
grab, picked Novikoff, the 80
year old outfielder who failed
in three trials with the Chicago
Cubs but always has been a hit
ting star in the minors. Hes
still in the Army but hit .318
with Los Angeles last season
before entering service.
The tailend Philadelphia Ath-
letics, getting first choice, passed
the Mad Russian in favor of
another former Cub, the veteran
outfielder Frank Demaree, who's
been playing in the major and
minor circuits for Is years.
