The Rev. Roy Tawes of Whining
ton on Tuesday night addressed
two hundred Kiwanians and their
wives on the subject, Let Freedom
Ring" Speaking at the annual La
dies and Charter and Inter-Club
Night of the Georgetown Kiwanis
Club, held in Jones Memorial Hall,
here, the Rev. Tawes called atten-
tion to the ugly, menacing Red
cloud rising overseas and said
Communism is no red herring
dragged across the trail of national
life, but is a whale of a fish seek
ing to swallow all the JOnahs try
ing to escape their duties and OBJ
legations. Communism is an idea
OlOgy," he said, "and will not be
destroyed by atomic bombs. If we
are TO defeat Communism, we must
match the ideaOlOgy with our faith
in Democracy and making Demo-
cracy work and with faith in our
religion and making our religion
work. Communism" he added. "is
anti-GOd, out to destroy freedom
and religion, and if Communism
prevailed we would not have a
church to stay away from" The
speaker further said "the time has
arrived when. everyone should for
get the idea Of getting something
for nothing; and get busy and earn
our salt; keep our feet solldly on

prices Of machinery, fertilizers and
farm wages probably will not de-
cline much. If the decline of farm
prices is moderate, dairymen and
pOultrymen could actually profit
because feed prices will fall more
than live stock prices. If the farm
price decline is sharp. dairymen
and pOultrymen would also be Den-
allied, because live stock prices
would fall appreciably below the
prices of the things they buy. How
ever, in any event." the speaker
continued, the extreme shortage
of pork and feed during the next
three to four years will hold pOul-
try and dairy products higher than
grain prices.
THE continuation of the decline
in farm prices into 1949 is predi-
Gated on stable international rela-
tiOns; but international relations
are not stable and the cold war
may be accelerated. For the cur
rent fiscal year, the U. S. Congress
has appropriated $40 billion in
support of the European Recovery
Program and for National Defense.
The heavier part of these expendi-
lures will not be made until after
the first of the year. These pro-
grams are already drawing heavily
on our labor force and our supplies
of critical materials. If the next
session of Congress considers fav-
Orably an appropriation for aiding
in the defense of Western Europe
and the $50 billion appropriated for
the current year is appreciably in
creased, it could we'll mean that the
decline in farm prices now under
way, not only would be checked,

Department of Agricultural Eco
nOmics of the University of Della

ton, was the main speaker at the
GeOrgetOwn-MillsbOrO Rotary Club
in Masonic Temple on Tuesday
night. DR.. Bausman said this cOun-
try has had five major infatiOnary
periods since it's founding. After
World War l." he said, prices rose,
but broke in 1920 and stabilized un-
til 1929, when they broke; now,
since World War II, prices have
tripled and initiation prices have
lasted longer than in any other
period" His discussion pointed out
that with farm prices currently
declining, probably the most i'm
pOrtant question in the minds of
Delaware farmers is what will be
the level of prices during the year
1949 According to statistics. grain
prices have been declining for some
months and are now about one
third lower than in February Q948)
peak Most grain prices are down
to government supports an da size
able proportion of the crops will
be under government loans. The
fall in grain prices has been offset
in part by the high prices of live
stock. If this decline in prices con-
tinues through 1948, grain prOduc-
ers will probably suffer most.
Grain prices will fall most and

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15-The
st. Louis Cardinals may not win the
National League pennant this year,
but 1t won't be the fault Of that
courageous little ft-hander, Harry
(the Cat Brecheen.
Brecheen, whose 1914 World Series
pitching spotlighted him as one Of
the great hurlers in baseball, won
his 18th game of 1948 last night
the most games he has won in one
season since he became National
Lacquer in 1910.
Brecheen won Is games In both
1884 when he sparked the Cardinals
to the flag, and again last year for
his best previous record.
His 8-to-0 triumph over the
Phillies was the Cats seventh
shutout of the season and second
over Manager Eddie Sawyer's Blue
Jays" The southpaw also has had
remarkable success with the Chicago
Cubs. whitewashing them three
times. He blanked the hard hitting
New York Giants and Cincinnati
Reds once each.
The curve ball artist had his jug
handle pitch working in fine fashion

as he limited the Phillies to three
hits. struck out eight and walked
only two batters. In no inning were
the Phillies able to muster more
than one hit. sst sst
He gained q lot Of satisfaction In
emerging from his only tough spot
Of the evening. 1t hapepned in the
seventh.
Johnny Blatnik singled and after
Willie (Puddin Head Jones, just
up from Toronto of the International
League. skied to left, Ralph Cabal-
lero walked.
Catcher Andy Seminick, who al
ready had singled and doubled, was
at the plate and hit could have
put the Phillies back in the game
and possibly put the skids to
Brecheen.
But he crouched in his inimitable
style and. taking the signal from
Catcher Del Rice, made Seminick
hit back breaking curve ball to
Left Fielder Stan Musial for the
third out
It's little things like that that
keep Manager Eddie Dyer hoping
for that pennant miracle, and with
the Boston Brave 512 games in front,
that's probably what it would take
for the Cards to make it-a miracle.

Black Improves,
Says He Feels

By the Associoted Press

CLEVELAND, Sept. 15.-Pitcher
Don Black of the Cleveland Indians,
stricken by a brain hemorrhage in
a game with the St. Louis Browns,
showed improvement today by issu-
ing his own communique from a
hospital bed:
I'm feeling pretty good"
DR.. Spencer Braden, brain spe-
cialist, said after a visit with Black
today that he was rather heart
ened by Dons condition. He is very
rational and lucid
The physician said Black no longer
was lapsing into INCONSISTENCIES,
but added that the hurler was not
yet "out of danger" d..
THE whole picture looks brighter
said DR.. Braden, "and the problem
now is to prevent a recurrence OF
bleeding"
1T will be some time before he
will be we'll enough to withstand an
exhaustive examination to determine
the cause of the Illness
Asked about Blacks baseball fu-
ture, he replied: That's up to Don
The question of his playing next
year will depend upon the extent OF
recovery
Black, who first began to show
signs of improvement last night
ate his first meal this morning
since he twisted his neck. in the
game Monday. His breakfast con-
sisted largely of chicken broth and
fruit Juice.
