Rookie 5 Navy Hurting
Indicates He's Ready
For Major Test
By Denmon Thompson
Sfor Sports Editor

ORLANDO, Fla, Feb. 22.-No less
an authority than Bob Feller, Cleve-
lands speed specialist, has pro-
claimed the Mats Vernon Curtis
has the equipment to become a great
pitcher, an opinion Prexy Clark
Griff1th reached earlier when he
pried Curtis from the Atlanta
Crackers for $25,000.
"Feller told me at Great Lakes
that I have all it takes to be an
outstanding pitcher" says Curtis, a
slim Highlander who will be 26 In
May. Il was supposed to pitch for
Feller at Great Lakes, but only had
chance to work out with him be-
cause an order came through that
sent me to Okinawa before the sea-
son started"
Fifteen months in the Navy, Curtis
pitched only 10 games in the service,
but among them was a 80 no-hit,
no-run masterpiece against the
l06th Seabees on Okinawa. His
baseball service record shows eight
triumphs, one defeat and tie.
Curtis Believes Control OK.
Curtis came up with the Mats for
a brief period in l943, when he i'm
pressed Griffith with his speed, but
didn't charm him with his control.
Griffith shunted him to Minneapolis
to cure his wildness and produced
the desired results, for Curtis won
IS games and lost II with a miser-
able seventh place team.
"Griff didn't like my lack of con-
troll" says Curtis, "but I think he'll
notice some improvement. In my
own mind, at least, I'm satisfied I
have control. I think I'll be able to
stick around this year and help this
club"
Griffith purchased Curtis from At
lanta on the strength of his Is VIC
tories achieved by d-August. He
failed to aid the Mats, but when op-
toned to Minneapolis proved SEN
sation in the American Association.
Benny Tate, former Washington
catcher, figured in molding Curtis as
a hurler. He coached me In a WPA
league in Southern Illinois when
was playing semipro ball." says Cur

machine, a contraption which fires

with his swatting stroke yesterday.
Coan thumped several scorching
liners over the inf1eld and reached
the distant right field fence on the
first hop with his best blow-the
lengthiest poke at Tinker Field
thus far.
Billy Evans, former majo league
umpire, has relayed refreshing in
formation to Bluege about Coan and
Earl Wooten, another rookie out
fielder who will report next week.
Evans told me that Coan is the
fastest man he's ever seen going

WASHINGTON, June o. B -
The National Coal associations ex-
ecutive secretary today descrlb-
ed government intervention in the
controversy over ~unionization OF
mine foremen as another glazing
example," of the use of war pow
ers :'to rule industry by edict."
John D. Battle, spokesman for
the association, said in a state
ment that the industry believes
that the unionization of it's super
viso1y employees is contrary to the
intent and provisions of the Wag-
ner act and the industry is at
tempting to obtain a judicial de-
termination of this issue by the
courts"
The government is operating the
mines under seizure and nego-
tiating with a supervisory work
ers' branch OF the United Mine
workers for agreement to cover
foremen at Jones and Laughlin
Steel corporation mines in west
ern Pennsylvania.
Battle accused the government,
which fought a court restraining
order, of using F'every resource
at its command to prevent the
court adjudication.
The government by virtue o.
the Krug-Lewis coal contract is
apparently aiding and abetting the
union in its efforts to accomplish

personnel of the industry before

SECRET DOCUMENT
CHARTS WAR STEPS
Henry Stimson's Emergence
AS World Statesman
Is Traced

WASHINGTON, June IL UP -
The first step in Henry L. Slim
sons evolution from q cautious
diplomat to an outspoken leader
who tried to mobilize the demo-
cratic world against Japanese ag-
erosion was charted today in
hitherto secret documents.
The documents, contained in a
1.OOO-page volume on American
foreign policy in the Far East in
1881, cover the period from August
20. a month before the japanese
and Chinese troops clashed in the
south Mauchurian railway ''inci-
dent" to Jan. 6, 1882. Made pub

But in the four months, Stimson
did develop from a man who bent
over backward to avoid offending
Japan to one who told Nippon what
he thought of it's treachery in
Manchuria and pledged at least
silent cooperation if the League
of Nations slapped sanctions or
Tokyo.
At the start, Stimson told China

favorites."
For the moment, we are con
cerned with the question of peace
he said.
Although he made recommends
tions to the League of Nation
council on its course of action
Stimson warned the America
consul in Geneva not to give tn
appearance Of collaborating to,
closely with the League.
He insisted that the invocation
of the Kellogg-Briand anti-wa
pact be initiated in Geneva, no
Washington.
This caution, Stimson mad
clear, was prompted by two fac
tors:
l.. American public opinion.
2. Belief that the Japanese cabi

served as premier under Gen

over the war-minded japanese

And if Stimson was cautious il

The story Of the period covered
by the volume is one of Japanes'

Whether the neutral diplomat:
could have done better with the
tools they hac the League Of

cleared up in the papers. The
documents. however, disclose lit
