CHICAGO SOX REAL THREAT Miracle Team of American League Threatens Leaders New York, July 30- — <U.R> ~ Miracle men of the 1935 major IwWftie season are the Chicago) White Sox. that scrappy gang of misfi's commanded by Jimmy -Dykes, a disciple of Connie Mat k. , I ast spring Jack Doyle, Broadway betting commissioner, quoted IDOO 1 against the White SOX winning the pennan'. With the sei-; ->on nearly two-thirds coniplet | the White Sox are clinging to third place and are preparing ■> make their big flag bid next,

month. Ten to one right now would be a dangerous price to lay against the White Sox winning the pennant. After a 20-day road trip the White Sox returned to Cumiskey Park today only 4’4 games back of the league-leading Detroit Tigers, and only 2 games behind ’he New York Yankees. In the a’lhwnor ant "lost” column, the Wliite Sox are only one game behind their leading rivals, the Tilers and Yank -. One of the astonishing things about an astonishing team is the White Sox ability to knock off the Tigers. In 12 games with the champions the Wiiite Sox have won eight. Jimmy Dykes, an old teammate of the Detroit leader. Mi<key Cochrane, has lately imbu'd the Whi'e Sox with pennant «nirit, u-iing the Tigers as the fall guy. “If Detroit is the best of the other American league teams.” says Dykes, "then we might as well go out and cop the flag because the White Sox are bitter than the Tigers.” Chicago probably will reach woßHMßßßHßßsmHpnsnrfi’rs y We take care of any auto ailment.

CANADA WEIGHS WHEAT POLICY | LOSS AND CAIN New Grain Board May Assume Obligations Os $200,000,000 | Attawa. Ont.--(U.R> -Although the' 'Dominion government was reticent about doing it, once it agreed to remove the lid from its operations in the wheat market, the removal, admittedly, was complete. The revelations are most illuminating. The Canadian treasury is committed to a huge amount of money — roughly $196,666,660, with 228,660.066 bushels of wheat on hand which cost an average of 86 cents a bushel. On the other side there are substantial assets on hand and margins in cash. When the new grain board, be- ! ing set up by legislation, begins business, the gross obligations it | will have to take over vary from $180,600,000 to more than $200,600,000, depending upon the cost of the futures which are contracted. Against this, is the value of the wheat and certain cash deposits. Tlie contingent ’lability or, perhaps more properly speaking. | the ultimate loss, will depend upon whether, and when, the huge surplus on hand is sold and at what , price. Helps Protect Farmer Certain facts stand out conspicuously in the complete inquiry which the government has facilitated. One is the primary circumstance tliat government intervention was designed to help the , "pool” farmers out of the trouble into which they had landed after a futile endeavor to hold up the European market for a price which Europe would never pay. Another admitted fact is that, in

Y. Mrs. Harrison, who has married since her first husband's death in 1901, was the second wife of the late president whom she niained in 1896.

its stabilization processes, through the agency of John I. MacFarland, the government was motivated by the desire to protect the interest of the western producers when their own efforts to that end hail proved disastrous. Whatever the disaster, if any. may be. there was good faith and good intent. Agent Bought and Sold But it appears that the government agent did more than sell or hold wheat. The transactions were most varied. The agency was in and out of the market. It bought and it sold. It even sold at times and then bought back a: a higher price—considerably higher in fact. At one time, there was a paper profit of more than $38,606,600 but it was not taken. If k had l>een the story would be different. The wheat was held. Then the market fell off and the paper profit turned in:o a loss which has stayed a loss —steadily mounting. What commonly is deduced from the operations is that the government agency was expecting on’y a fair crop this year and an absorptive world capaci y greatly in excess of what is proved to be. Instead. the world production is promising, with the demand from Canada, correspondingly lessened.' . If there were any gambling on a short crop, the “gamble” appears to have turned out badly. Gain and Loss Weighed Tn the two-sided argument, it is contended, from one viewpoint, that the stabilizing operations have meant $160,006,660 more to the western farmer. Against this, is the huge financial obligation assumed by the Dominion government; the apparent prospect of loss which may be heavy and the depressing effect on the wheat market, perhaps for three or four years, until the accumulation of 228 million bushels of surp'us is liquidated and the normal process of marketing the current crops is established. The wheat situation is often described in Parliament as a "mess.” The description appears to be fairi ly accurate.
