impossible for the birthplace Pirates sixth
place Phillies to win. If you want to count them,
10 teams are in contention.
What it all means is that neither league has
a standout club. Right down the line the teams
are shot full of weaknesses. Even the Boston
Braves, who seemed to be piling up safe margin,
have begun to stagger as the turn and run for
home approaches. The recent series with the
lowly Cincinnati Reds has pointed up weaknesses
in the Braves lineup.
The pendulum has swung toward the East

Commander-in-Chief
Objects to Cuts

STOCkHOLM.-(By airmaiD-
General Hedge Jung, Command
er-in-Chief of the Swedish armed
forces, has sharply criticized the
1915 Defense Committees propo-
sal about the reorganization of the
national defense. Submitted last
December, it suggested number
of cuts and retrenchments in the
interest of economy.
Emphasizing in a report to the
Riksdag that the risk for a new
world war has not decreased, Gen.
eral Jung wants to see the present
set-up of the Army and the Navy
virtually unchanged, while a fight
er wing should be added to the Air
Corps, as has already been agreed
to by the Riksdag. All medically
fit conscripts should undergo a
thorough military training. For
the next few years the purchase
of new equipment may be limited,
but the grants for future purchase
of new materiel for the Army and
the Navy should be increased, so
that necessary modernizations
may be effected from time to
time. Greater protection must be
provided for military equipment
stored in underground caches, and
these should be enlarged as soon
as possible.
In conclusion, the Commander
in-Chief stated t h a I'VE must
watch with open and unprejudiced
eyes the military technical devel-
opment, so that we are prepared
to make radical changes in our
own organization and materiel,
should the occasion demand it,"

Sweden Expanding
Production of
Passenger Aircraft

STOCKHOLM - (By airmaiD
The Saab Company, of Linko-
ping, manufacturers of aircraft,
plans to expand it's production of
twin-engined passenger planes of
the type Saab-Scandia. The COM
pany will also shortly start pro-
ducing a second series of some
what different design, which viii
be equipped with an engine of a
new and still more powerful type.
The new craft has received the
name "Saab Scandal 80 A 2" and
will be driven by two Pratt &
Whitney R 2180 engines. This will
increase the maximum speed of
the plane, as compared with the
type now manufactured, from 428
to AGO kilometers per hour (285
miles per hour) and the rate of
climb from 1894 to 470 meters per
minute (1,540 feet per minute)
The Saab Scandal aircraft, intend
ed to carry between "a and 80 pas
sengers, have been designed for
about the same service as the
American DC-3 planes, that is, for
passengers and cargoes over short
and medium distances and for op-
Grating from small airfields.

The M. S. "Gripsho1m" of the
Swedish American Line, arrived
in New York on February % from
her home port, Gothenburg, with
949 passengers, after a lay-up in
Sweden of two months, during
which her interior underwent many
changes. Refurbishing of the liner
has reduced her passenger capaci-
ty by more than eighty, but has
added considerably to the comfort
of passengers as we'll as crew.
Old furniture and rugs have been
replaced, staterooms rearranged,
and new decorations added, CIV
ing the vessels interior a brighter
and more cheerful appearance. Be-
fore the war, the "Gripsholm" car

Nordic Scientific
Cooperation Planned

STOCKHOLM, February "a
(By Scientific coopera-
ton between the Nordic countries
will be greatly increased, accord
ing to an agreement reached after
a meeting in Copenhagen of rep
resentatives of the technical and
natural scientific research spheres
in Sweden, Denmark, Norway,
and Finland.
In order to avoid duplication OF
work it has been decided to divide
all major research projects as
evenly as possible between the
four countries. Foreign scientists
especially those from the United
States, whose transatlantic trips
are costly, will in the future be
invited jointly.
The publication of scientific
magazines is also on the agenda.
In this last mentioned field, the
medical societies of the four coun-
tries have advanced far, and their
work for a closer Nordic coopera-
ton was held up as an example
to follow.

tain it and to make it still higher,
given the conditions which they
face, they have decided that much
teamwork is necessarily large
measure of self-imposed, state
managed, and semi-socialistic CO.
operation. The real point is that
it is self-imposed, by free popular
decisions. And the means of lift

sary or desirable-remain in full
force and effect. There is no So
called socialistic measure in force
in Scandinavia today, no limita-

morrow by the veto of a freely
elected parliamentary responsive
to popular will. Naturally, not
all lessons from these successfully
operating and efficient workshops
of democracy are applicable here

to learn from each other"
