Detroit Hasn't Lost
Here This Season;
Denfe Slump Hurts
BY Burton Howkins

Connie Marrero, complete mas
ter OF the Tigers in two starts but
unsuccessful in his last three bids
for victory, viii try to get himself
and the Mats back on the beam
tonight ct Griffith Stadium. which
has become the Detroiters'
favorite chunk Of real estate.
Two streaks will be colliding
head-on when the little Cuban
right-hander takes the mound
against Freddie Hutchinson. for
Marrero has faced the Tigers
twice and trimmed them, 6-2, on
q three-hitter and Az on a four
hitter.
Both Of those victories were won
in Detroit. though. At Griffith
Stadium the Tigers own an un-
blemished record. compiling their
sixth straight win here last night,
5-2, behind the six-hit pitching
of Hal Newhouser.
Marrero, who captured o deci-
sion over the Tigers June 20.
hasn't won q game since and
unless the bottom third Of the
Mats batting order perks up, the
immediate outlook for Chico is
dim and there's faint hope in the
future for any Washington
pitcher.
Dente and Evans Slump.
When opposing pitchers get by
the Mats sixth hitter they're de-
lighted. for Sam Dente is having
rough season with his .239 bat
ting. AL Evans is hitting .221 and
there are few respectable bat
ters among the Mats pitchers.
Bucky Harris isn't equipped
with much reserve talent. His
pinch-hitters are hitting only .2oo
and just one Of their blows this
year travelled for extra bases.
It was lack Of punch in the
lower portion Of the lineup that
caused the Mats to blow last
nights game. NewhouSer loaded
the bases in the fourth inning
with two out, but Dente watched
a third strike.
Trailing by three runs in the
ninth, the Mats stirred the H.
783 customers when Mickey Ver-
non and Sam Mele singled sue
cessively and Johnny Ostrowski
walked to I'LL the bases with none
out. But 1t was a buildup to a
ietdown.
Dente fouled to First Baseman
Don Holloway and Evans ended
the game on o drab note when he
grounded to Third Baseman

THE PATIENT |

We are sinners, all of us, most of us in one respect
especially; sometimes unconsciousy, sometimes consciously.
While l respect all the Ten Commandments, the one
that appeals most to me is that which advises us not to bear
false witness.
Many of the worlds troubles, if not most of them, grow
out of the bearing of false witness. Whether this sin is COM
mited deliberately or unconsciously, the result is identical
1t cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance or good in
tent. 1t behooves us to bear accurate and correct witness.
Because of the bearers of false witness, many people
in the world today do not recognize the disaster that is ap-
preaching us. 1t is hard to understand how anyone at all
familiar with history, and of reasonable intelligence can
fail to see that we are repeating in these days the course
that history has taken not once but many times in the past;
from Rome, under Diocletian, all through the years down
to England, under the Socialists today.
That's not because the English people are not intelligent
or well-intentioned. They have become enamored of a vi
have become obsessed with a conviction to such an extent
that they do not see the things that are actually happening
and the danger in their present course.
As in England, there are many here in America who
are putting their trust in economic doctors who know little
would not think of permitting a surgeon who does not have
a thorough knowledge OF physical anatomy, to operate upon
quacks, who know SO little of the anatomy of society, rela-
tionships of human beings and the laws that govern life;
to prescribe an operation and proceed to operate upon the
These pseudo-economic doctors, who are sublmely
ignorant of the anatomy OF our economic system, are overly
Jealous to operate upon it. 1t hurts me to have to say this
of some of my fellow-craftsmen in economics, but they are
very much like the mathematician who attempts to deal in
geometry, trigonometry, algebra or calculus, without first
having bothered to study and master plain arithmetic.
That is one reason why our American colleges today
are grinding out SO many graduates who have no under
standing whatsoever of the fundamentals of economics.
You and.I must beware of these Do-Gooder sociaIshc
planners, who bear false witness. We must not let them
prescribe for us, much less operate.
Somehow they bring to mind the old bromide about the
unqualified, inadequately trained surgeon who performed
his first operation.
When asked how it had some,Out be replied 1T was
a'big success
And to the further question, <1oWs the patient" his
answer was, "Oh! the patient died."
Let's bear in mind that nations, even as individuals, cam
not survive the butchery wrought by a knife in the hands
of an unskilled surgeon.
Let's not have a successful CD operation performed upon
these United States that will call for the sad, sad answer,
ooh! the patient died" DR.. Alfred p. Haake

STATE CANDIDATES

Failure of the Republican state central committee to
prevent the partys primary ballot from become cluttered up
lists, is sharply criticized in the May issue of Here in Ohio
magazine.
Cited as particularly horrible examples of what happens
when the state committee refuses to give the COP voters
dates are the dangerous and confusing situations caused by
entry of name candidates in the Attorney General and
State Treasurer contests.
- Here in Ohio magazine points out that "since Harry T.
Marshall, who apparently is not making an active campaign
for Attorney General but depending almost entirely upon
the vote-getting name of Marshall, his service record, and
membership in the Legion, we think the voters should have
all the facts"
Here in Ohio magazine states furthers that, According
to probate court records of Cuyahoga county, Marshall
changed his name Sept. 6, 1922, from Harry M. Torbofsky to
Harry I. Marshall.
In his application for citizenship filed in Clevelands
federal court Feb. |, 1922, Marshall stated he was born in
Schwartzlinne, Russia, Dec. IL, 1899, that he entered the
United States army Oct. Is, 1918 (26 days before the ARMS
tice), and that he was ~honorably discharged at Cleveland,
Dec. Is, 1913"
In the State Treasurer's contest, two Herbert Hoovers
create a situation where the better qualified candidates face
defeat by those running on name" alone, the magazine
charges.
Marion Hadley Hoover of Columbus, who finally wound
up as just plain Herbert Hoover" a seven-time candidate for
some state office or other, filed for State Treasurer this year
and it looked as if he might win this time, Here in Ohio
magazine states.
Because of his poor qualifications someone in the Re
publican circles sent out word for another Hoover" to split
up the Hoover" vote and eliminate the Columbus Hoover.
repairnan who was not even registered-and they circulated
his petition for him, paid his filing fee, registered him, and
entered him in the race in the hopes that this would help
some of the better qualified contenders.
The magazine endorses Don Ebright for Governor. c.
William ONeill for Attorney General, Lottie Randolph for
Secretary of State.
Every eligible Noble countian should 60 to the polls next
Tuesday and vote. Support the candidate of your choice.

furnished to them about Hiss
and that they whitcwashed the
Amerasia case and restored to
duty some of the State Depart
ment agents clearly shown TO be
concerned with II.
This proc Communist influence
in the State Department has been
reflected in a strongly pro-Com-
munist policy in the far eastern
division, and a strongly pro-Com-
munist policy in China which sue
ceeded finally in delivering China
and perhaps the entire East to
Communism. Surely this justifes
a sincere investigation. Certainly
the course of the far eastern di-
vision has been the greatest
"Kremlin asset in our history.
DERHAPS the Secretary of State
L cannot be made to turn over the
files. But the refusal can only be
dictated by fear as to what they
might show. 1t would be entirely
feasible to exhibit these files to the
five responsible members of the
subcommittee without any danger
of giving unfair publicity to per-
sons mentioned therein. This was
actually done in the Missouri cleo
ton case, although it developed
there that the files had been doc
tored before they were shown to
the committee.
1t is not SO much the informa-
ton in the files that the committee
needs as it is the line of investiga-
ton and the names of witnesses
who could be called for direct tes-
timony. Over the same kind of
obstruction it was only by the
merest chance that the House
Committee happened to get enough
information over strenuous Adj
ministration opposition to- force
the prosecution of Hiss.
Whether Senator Mccarthy has
legal evidence, whether he has
overstated or understated his case,
is of lesser Importance. The ques-
ton is whether the Communist in
1uence in the State Department
still exists.
Every member of the Admin
istration ought to be eager to
have that question determined
finally and conclusively. The
President above all, instead of
libeling Senator Mccarthy and
p%rejudging the entire case,
should be anXi0us-if he can do
SOTO eliminate any suspicion
of treason from his own depart
mentS.

CHURCH COIN

Dear Edltur: M~
Well, SIR cant remember when me and NAV haint gone TO
meetin on Sunday and a heap of them that wasent on Sunday. /
don't say much about religion and Nav says less. When Sunday
comes along we just get on our meetin buds and pays our respects
to the Lord.
We got several churches here abouts and all of them teach
worship of God and His Son Jesus Christ. All of them prays to
the same God through the same Christ. l reckon the Lord hears
them all.
Now me and NAV have noticed fer a heap of years that some
of our naybors don't 90 to church at all and Just as sure as Sunday
comes you see them out plowin or maxim hay or don somethin.
Now me and NAV hant cranks at all and we know that Jesus once
said it was alright TO pull an ass out of a hole on Sunday if he
fell in. Trouble is with these here Sunday workers they push
the ass in the hole on Saturday night SO they can pull him out
on Sunday.
We buried one of our naybors tother day, a Sunday worker
he was too, and his pockets was empty. His big barns and bins
and all his treasures was left here in the Holler and he took very
little over there with him Now, / haint passin no Judgment
that is the Lords buSinesS-but me and nav looked at each other
that night when we said our prayers. We knowed what each
was a thinkin.
If me and nav cant make a go of it six days a week workin,
that tother one hant much of a help. We gets a heap out of gOn
to church and bet lots of other people would too if they would
try it.
Yours for full churches,

FARM BULLETINS

Each year every member of
congress receive an allotment of
nine thousand farm bulletins
dealing with approximately four
hundred different subjects. This
year / have received many re-
quests from more than four
thousand people in the district.
Many congressman, especially
from the cities, do not use their
annual allotment and, in order
to meet the needs of my constitu-
ents, | contacted quite a number
of these members who assigned
to me over sixty-thousand of
their bulletins. Because of this
l have been able to meet all
requests.
When a bulletin list comes to
my office | send it to the depart
ment of agriculture where the
number is checked against my
supply of bulletins and then it
is sent to the government print
ing office where the bulletins are
stored. The ordersis filled and the
bulletins sent to my office where
they are placed in an envelope
and sent to the person requesting
them.
All bulletin requests received
up to the first of April have been
filled and sent out from my of
flee. Thirty people requesting
bulletins forgot to sign their
names and address either on the
bulletin list or the envelope, so
it has been impossible to fill
these thirty orders. If anyone
ordering bulletins prior to the
first of April has not received
them, they should drop me a
card and | will send another list.

When women were given the
right to vote in 1920 many of
them refused to exercise the
right of franchise. Today there
are forty-six million potential
women voters. In the general
election of l948 more women
voted than men. The progress of
women in the field of govern
ment during the past thirty years
has been phenomenal.
In the Congress of the United
States there is one woman sena-
tor and eight women in the house
of representatives. The national
committees of both major poll
teal parties have women as vice
chairmen and the secretaries of
both committees are women.
There are two hundred and sew
enteen women now serving in
thirty = nine state legislatures
Several women have been ap-
pointed federal judges in which
posts they have succeeded admir-
ably. Two women serve as am
bassadors in foreign countries,

Women hold many other posi-.
