OUR LADY SENATOR
gency.

THE little fellow has a right to eco
nomic security" declares Senator Mar
garet Chase Smith, of Maine, Just as
much as the big man who seeks to pro-
tect his interests by requesting beneficial
Legislation.
The woman Senator thought the Gov
eminent, in intervening in behalf of the
economic welfare of the people, is not
necessarily following course of exped-
iency. There is something to what the
lady from Maine says. Everybody knows
that, for many years, the spokesman of
big business, whether financial or indus
trial, could get hearing in Washington,
but the unorganized mass of human
beings, making up the bulk of the popu-
lation, had no effective voice at the
Capitol.
AS Mrs. Smith asserts, the so-called
little man" has just as much right to
seek his economic welfare and to ask
legislative favors as the representatives
of what is popularity termed big business.
The hearing accorded the pleas of the
little men" is not diminished by the fact
that. when it comes to voting, they have
numbers.

Jackie Robinson Called
Ball Player Of The Year

New York, Sept. 10 - Jackie Rob-
inson is hailed as ball player of the
Year" in the issue of Look magazine
released today, which claims that
Branch Rickey's prediction that
Robinson would be the most eX-
citing, the most daring player you
ever saw is being amply fulfilled.
The Negro baseball star, who was
the first to break the major league
color line when he joined the Brook
lyn Dodgers several years ago, has
succeeded Joe Louis as the idol of
his people, says Look. "AS a box
office attraction" it asserts, Rob
inson rates with Joe DiMaggio,
Ted Williams, Ralph Kiner, and
Stan Musila.'
Declaring that his hitting and
fielding more than satisfy, Look
says it is the Negro players base
running that makes the crowd roar.
"Unquestionably," it states, "he
ranks as the top base-stealer of his
day"
Comparing him to baseball's great
Ty Cobb, Look points out five things
which the two players have in COM
mon:
He knows how to study the move
ments and play upon the weaknesses
mechanical and mental, of the other
team. He has the unerring instinct
for the right move. He has a quick
start. He can look behind on the
bases without losing speed He is
clever slider"
In summing up his success in
breaking the color line in the ma
tiOnal sport, Look says: Most of
the players and public now accept
Robinson. A minority of uneducated
and intolerant still resent him as
the one who did what they thought
never could happen"
