DODGERS TIE WITH CARDS
 FOR TOPPER
BY JOE REIcHLER
CAP SPORTS wR1TER)

Baseball followers were envision- ing today another -to-the- wire neck and neck rennant race between the Brooklyn Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals, such as the two top National League contenders staged in the hectic 1941 and AZ seasons.
 For the third consecutive day, the Crawling Brooks and Classy Cards continued in first place deadlock following yesterdays sig nificant triumps.
 The Cards, in particular, showed marks of champion when they whipped the New York Giants Al despite the threat or moral let down as result of the possible loss of three of their star players to the Mexican baseball league. It was just before tl-s game that the players learnedof the "departure' of star pitchers Max Lanier and Fred Martin and second baseman Lou Klein.
 Brooklyn kept pace with the Cards by taking it's second 2-1 de- cision over the Chicago Cubs, this time going into the llth inning to win as compared to B innings on Wednesday.
 Pre-Ganse BrasDl
 The game was an anti-climax to a pre-game brawl between the two clubs which involved nearly all the members of both teams before it was boken up by police. The only serious injury suffered by any eombatant was the loss of tooth by Brooklyn's Dixie Walker.
 National League President Ford Prick assessed $50 fines to Len Merullo and Coach Red Smith of the Cubs and Walker, and s100 fines to Brcoklyn's Peewee Reese and Chicago's Phil Cavarretta. In ad- clifton, Prick suspended Walker and Smith for five days and Merullo for eight days
 American Race
 The race in the American League was narrowed when the New York Yankees outslugged the Detroit Tigers 1926 while Cleveland shad- ed Bostcns leading Red Sox 3-2 in 10 innings Boston's first place margin thus was reduced to five games.
 Bashing out three successive homers to tie a Major league rec ord, the Tanks routed four Tiger hurlers for eight successive hits and as many runs in ferocious fifth frame to come from behind. Jos DiN1aggio, Nick Etten and Joe Cor don were the circuit elouters, with

has shown the flexibility required
in public affairs.
How will Erlander act as leader
of a government party which, I'M
less it draws considerably more
supporters by the 1913 elections,
no longer will have a majority in
the Riksdag? Will he seek sup
port on the Communist side, or
from the bourgeois parties? A
precise answer to this question
was sought in vain by the opposi-
ton in the opening debates of the
session. While denying any idea
of cooperation with the Commu-
nists, Mr.. Erlander spoke of labor
unity in such a way as seemingly
to imply that he did not exclude
some kind of support from that di-
rection all the same. Observers
also noted with interest that he
specifically mentioned Mr.. Wig
forss as the author of the party's
postwar full-employment-and-se-
curity program.

of Sweden at a time when sig

issues call for wise national de-

On the domestic side Sweden
has come to a point in it's course
toward a regulated economy at
which it becomes serious ques-

should extend. Some quarters
seek to accelerate the evolution.
Former Premier Per Albin Hans
son held these tendencies in rein
by his leadership and his care
always to obtain the greatest
measure of agreement from nom
socialist parties for any govern
ment action.
Now that he is gone and Mr..
Erlander whose administrative
abilities are better known than his
political views-takes his place
the problem of Sweden's equilib-
rum for social change becomes of
first-rank Importance.

airmaiD = 1.-TWO things have
struck me particularly on my Wis
it here-the high standard of eff
ficiency in your hospitals, and the
advanced age of your medical STU
dents" said DR.. Allen J. Laidlaw,
of Glasgow, on the eve of his de-
parture from Stockholm. He was
one of the % British physicians
and surgeons who recently made
a tour of Sweden.

hospitals we have inspected" he
continued, land we have been es-
pecially impressed with the new
Sodersjukhuset, which is larger
than the hospitals 1 have seen
earlier. Besides, it is technically
perfect and most attractive aes-
thetically. Throughout our visit
we have attended daily lectures at
various hospitals, and 1 plust say
that these meetings have been a
wonderful experience for us.
THE second thing that surprised
me, and no doubt my colleagues as
well, was the age of the Swedish
medical students. A Swedish ply
sician is generally about 33 to
"a years of age before he is ready.

Vital Problems Face Sweden

United Nations and it's recent
trade agreement with Russia.
These great issues are reflected
in the current session of the Riks-
dag. Some had questioned need
for the fall session of the legisla
ture, but it faces many important
questions.
Not least is the bill for univer-
sal health insurance, planned to
take effect in 1850, a part of the
big program of social reforms now
being adopted in Sweden. Also
prominent on the agenda will be
matters connected with Sweden's
membership in the U. N. and the
much-discussed treaty with Russia.
Soviet Treaty
Judging from the debates dur
ing the opening week of the ses-
sion, opposition fire will mainly
be concentrated on the Russian
treaty and the governments han
ding of the initiation threat. Only
on matters of detail are the sick
ness insurance proposals likely to
meet any opposition.
The choice at this juncture of
Tage Erlander as leader of the
Social Democratic party after Per
Albin Hansson-and ipso facto as
Sweden's Prime Minister-seems
to indicate a belief in Swedish la
Dor circles that the political bat
tie for the social security state has
been won, and that the problem is
now entering the administrative
phase.
While, as the opposition press
has been quick to observe, no firm
contours are yet visible in Mr.
Erlander's political profile, he is
known for his distinct capabilities
as an administrator. AS Parlia-
mentary Secretary in the Depart
ment of Social Affairs, he had
much to do with the practical
working out of the reforms with
which the older generation of
Swedish Socialists are now crown
ing their life's work.
Majority Reduced
With their Riksdag majority
shaken by the recent provincial
elections, the Social Democrats
naturally will wish to make the
new social reforms their show.

tons to the Second Chamber ir
1913. AS all parties are agreed
as to the necessity for these re.

A further reason however fol
