Professional baseball is walking

Dental Green Light similar to the
one President Roosevelt gave it two
years ago when he said go ahead"

In the wake of the Presidents call
for National Service and additional
legislative methods to force the ma
TONS four million 4-Fs into war

There are 281 4F players in the
big leagues. Without them the game
seems doomed. haAN
There is little chance that Wash

the way it stopped horse racing.
But there is a strong possibility
that there just won't be enough
players to go around. One things
is certain: Ball players are going
to be very reluctant to leave war
plants and farms to scamper around
on the diamond before stands full Of
jabbering fans.
The major league magnateS, reg
istering optimism, are grinning like
gargoyles, but they aren't fooling
anyone Its a long way till April"
one club owner said hopefully, indi-
eating that by the time the season
begins on April II, everyone will
have forgotten all about this prob
lem Fortunately, few people share
this attitude.
Right now baseball can do itself
and the nation a favor by facing
the future honestly. If the big
leagues can field 16 teams next

are tough all over.

"Our united effort is needed to pro-
tect the health of our people and pre-
vent the spread of tuberculosis, which
has increased sharply in Europe and
Asia during the war;" Governor
Lausche said. "No one can yet say
whether the privations and mental
strain of the war have laid the founda-

which will not become apparent for
several years."
The Christmas Seal Sale, which sup

Hamilton Has The Spirit

The Post sent reporter to Hamil-
ton to find out how it was done. TT is
the addition of three new industries
by Hamilton within year, industries
which will give jobs to 5000 Workers.
There doesn't seem to be anything
miraculous in Hamilton's methods of
attracting industry. The city offers
factory sites, cheap power, stable
labor supply, abundant water and, per-
haps just as important as any Of these,
an aggressive and united community
spirit which, in the reporters words,
means that everybody in Hamilton
pulls in the same direction when the
chips are down. That's mighty fine
quality for any city, small or big to
possess.
We congratulate Hamilton for this
spirit of doing things.

Too Bad Indeed
To The Butler County Press:

To The Butler County Press:
My son in World War | was shot
seven times in just few minutes
Was in hospital many weeks and now
carries bullet too close to the heart
to be removed. Now hospitalized with
cataracts in both eyes, had one remov-
ed and will be some months to operate
on the other. There are thousands
others manned for life.
Soldiers are forced to cripple and
kill, and they get medals for it.
Is it any wonder others as well as /
are antagonistic to warfare.
Once upon a time, an "old miser,
had the misfortune Of having the end
of his nose cut off. Worried over the
money for a surgeon, peddler of
salves said if he would buy box he
would put his nose together with the
salve and leave a bandage on so many
days. Well the nose had grown to-
gether. But upside down. When in the
rain would strangle and sneezing
would blow his hat off.
