BOSTON, Sept. 2S.-Knocked
out of the American League pen
nant race on a double defeat by
q couple of Washington pitchers
who hadn't beaten them before
this season, the Red Sox glumly

The chase to overtake the Tigers
seemed rather futile, too, with
Detroit two full games ahead of
the Red Sox, and the Yankees.
apparent flag winners, scheduled
to close tine season here in a two
game series Saturday and Sunday.
Yesterdays setbacks were bitter
pills for Boston fans, who saw the

great stretch drives. Last season
they lost the flag to the Yankees
on the final day of another thrill
packed campaign.
1t was like old times yesterday
for Gene Bearden, Washington

game. Bearden, pitching for
Cleveland, beat Boston in the

Questions Deficit
appropriation for vi.

Governor de Castro has stated
that at the administration hearing
before the Bureau of the Budget
in connection with the appropria-
ton for the Government of the
Virgin Islands for the fiscal year
1852, the Budget of the Bureau
raised questions as to the appro-
priation Of $745, 900 for the def
cit of the treasures.
The examining officer of the
bureau requested the Department
of the Interior to provide exact in
formation as to tn use of the def
cit appropriations for the fiscal
year 1852 and a detailed discus
sion of the prospects of increasing
local revenues with a view to re-
ducing the amount of the deficit
appropriation. The Governor is
preparing a detailed justification
to be submitted to the Bureau Of
the Budget.

Release Of Funds for
Vocut'l Ed. Progrum
Requested by Gov.

While in Washington, Governor
de Castro conferred with various
representatives of the Office of
Education in an attempt to have
funds released as promptly as pos
sible for the vocational education
program in the Virgin Islands.
1t will be recalled that the bill
authorizing the Vocational Educa-
ton Act to be extended to the Vir
gin Islands was passed by Con-
gress earlier this year. However,
the appropriation for the Virgin
Islands, totaling $4,000, did not
get through in the last-minute le-
gislative jam.
The Governor has been urging
that available funds for use in the
states be apportioned to the Vir-
gin Islands to start its program &
the legality of this suggestion is
being looked into by the Office of
Education. The Governor has
been assured, however, that it is
reasonable to believe that the
funds will be made available by
Congress when it reconvenes late
in November.

Deptment Of Finunce
To Hundle
Federal PuYrolls

Governor de Castro conferred
with officers of the Division of Dis
bursement, US. Treasury Departs
ment, in connection with cash dis
bursements to be made in the Vir
gin Islands for payrolls for the
workers to be employed on the
road projects which are to be
started here in the near future
under force account with our Pub
lie Works Departments. Since all
federal obligations are now paid
through the disbursing officer of
Puerto Rico, it would ordinarily
have been the procedure for the
hundreds of workers on the force
account project to be paid by
check from Puerto Rico, which
would have been inconvenient.
Arrangements for officers Of the
Department of Finance, in the
Virgin Islands, to act as agent Of
the Division Of Disbursement for
disbursement Of cash payrolls
only. This procedure should be ap
proved and be in force and effect
within the next two or three
weeks, as soon as new bonds can
be filed by these local officers. No
thing now stands in the way Of
the beginning Of force account
projects in the Virgin Islands, ex-
cept the approval of this proce-
dure for cash payment of payrolls.
