"BASEBALL ABOVE WAR

BASEBALL, it seems, is more important than work. At least the war manpower commission has ruled to that effect by permitting baseball players to quit jobs in war plants without getting a certificate of availability or going through the usual red tape imposed by the U. S. employment service on other workers. It ruled that baseball is their “principal employment” and that they may pursue it instead of the temporary jobs they have been filling. : The contention "is -that baseball contributes to national morale—which it undoubtedly does. But which a lot of other businesses also do without

enjoying such privileged status. * $8 ¥

” = ” MOVIE THEATERS, for example, entertain many times the number of customers—including soldiers and sailors—that baseball does. But they are classed by the war manpower commission as non-essential. They can be, and are, refused workers and their eligible employees can be drafted unless they take war jobs. Restaurants and hotels ‘are similarly non-essential. Yet who can deny that they contribute not only to morale but to actual prosecution of the war? The bureaucrats

and military men and union leaders and industrialists con- |

stantly traveling in behalf of some phase of the war effort would have a tough time without hotels—not to mention families visiting soldiers and war wives seeking places to live. Of course, a lot of people patronize hotels who have ‘no particular reason for so doing and whose contribution to the war effort would be hard to trace. Some of these occasionally wander inside the ball parks, also. Department stores and all other merchandising and distribution services are non-essential so far as WMC is concerned. The U. S. employment service will not refer employees to them. No man can quit a job in a war plant to go to work in a store. Yet what would happen to national morale and -to the

war effort if the stores closed? ” 8

= = ” » THESE ARE just examples of some of the businesses that are limping along with no special exemption such as has just been extended to the super-essential job of playing baseball. They constitute the commercial and business side of the picture. : What of the human side? . What of the man who never learned to do anything save a certain type of job classified as non-essential—the sort of job on which he married and acquired a family— the sort of job-from which he was drafted and sent into battle? : Does that man’s family think his work was less essential than playing baseball ?

CITIZENSHIP IN ACTION

JNDIANAPOLIS may well be proud of its Negro citizens who are showing a fine type of community co-operation in their joint drive to retire the $26,000 debt on the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. and the Senate ave. Y. M. C. A. The aim of Negro institutions has heen to develop leadership among their own people and the present campaign is a measure of the significant progress which has been made.

leaders have joined hands, in a spirit of self-reliance and |

civic responsibility, They have made plans that show great

foresight, for the retirement of the debt on the two “Y's” |

at this time will make possible an enlarged program of social usefulness for returning veterans and the youth of the community in the post-war period. They are working together, vigorously and harmoniously, and already F. B. Ransom, general chairman, and his two associates, Mrs. Lula J. Hall and Dr. Joseph Ward, have made a combined donation of $5000, and the balance will be raised by two divisions of 12 teams each. The campaign is based on the keynote of ‘‘finishing the job.” We.are confident that it will be a conspicuous success, both financially and as a practical demonstration of high grade citizenship in action.

REFLECTIONS— =

TAR |Rolling Stone . \ By Harry Hansen

4 ALL THE PUNS, jokes and rep- » k artee ever heard in the American E theater come back to us daily on the air. The other night a radio comedian got off this one: “Look, there's a neediegin the soup. “That's a. typographical error It noodle.” : If your memory go¢s back a long way, you will identify the birthplace of that one as Victor Herbert's “The Red Mill,” with Fred Stone making the first crack and Dave Montgomery, as the waiter, delivering the comeback. Even if you don't rate a high old age, you will recall your dad saying that when Montgomery and Stone did their burlesque of Sherlock Holmes. and Dr. Watson in the same show they raised the roof. It was one of the most famous travesties in show business, and Fred Stone, chatting about his past in “Rolling Stone” (Whittlesey House, $3), says he and Dave worked it up themselves. They were original vaudeville comedians, knockabout boys and song and dance men, and they could put bright acts into any play. ’ Nobody ever mentioned one without the other, and Mrs. Stone would hear people say: “There goes the wife of Montgomery and Stone.” Their association lastéd 22 years, from 1895 to 1817, when Dave died while acting with Fred in “Chin Chin.” Oddly enough, he played his last show in his home town, St. Joseph, Mo. Fred was Midwestern, too—from Colorado and Kansas, where his father ran barber shops when he

should be

circus.

The Good Old Days

TO HEAR Fred Stone tell it, no boy ‘ever had a more erratic and exciting dad than he did. The elder Stone was a born gambler. He started homesteading, but when that failed he hitched up the horses and took the family elsewhere. He was always ready to “grow up with the town,” but he never stayed long enough anywhere to strike roots. When they were living in Wellington, Kas., Fred asked his dad to stretch a rope for him so that he could learn to walk tightrope. “Sure. How high do you want it?” said his dad, and put it up for him. Fred was 10 when a hick circus hired him at $3 a week to do a tightrope act. Unfortunately, he had to wear a girl's costume and was called Mlle. Amy d'Artoga, the human doll. His father, wearing a Prince Albert and a plug hat, bought an interest in the show, but never got his hands on any money. Fred and his brother became tumblers, traveling around Middle Western towns with wagon shows until they got into dime-museum variety and an “Uncle Tom's Cabin” company. Fred Stone had met Dave Montgomery twice in seven years before they teamed up. They came together in Galveston, Tex. when Haverly's Minstrels succumbed, and their march east to Gus Hill's show at the Howard, on E. 125th st. -was the beginning of their partnership. They began as black-face comedians and nobody knew their faces when they became the stars of “The Wizard of Oz.” In that fabulous play Fred became the scarecrow and Dave the tin woodman at Fred's insistence, and for four years they played these roles. Fred's brother, Ed, played the Cowardly Lion for one year, when he died.

Circus Fever

fairy tale Fred Stone ever read. His fairy stories were in real circuses—with horses, elephants and the freaks of the shows. He says the old variety shows were hardly fit for the company of women until Tony Pastor. cleaned them up..- When Abe Erlanger, of Klaw & Erlanger, saw the Wizard in Chicago he said It wouldn't go in New York because it wasn't sophisticated. This seems a curious commentary for a time when no other musicals were sophisticated either. oI suppose Erlanger meant a “fairy tale would not be taken seriously. He must have been a poor judge of shows_in the period &f “Peter Pan.” In between gnecdotes about Will Rogers, ‘Annie Oszkley, Fred's brother-in-law, Rex Beach, Jim Corbett, Charles Dillingham, John Golden and other friends, Fred “Stone gets a bit nostalgic for the good old days. veteran of the circus, vaudeviile, dime museum, musical comedy and ‘the legit. - “What fun’ we had then!” he exclaims, recalling how he and Dave played in George Ade's “The Old

Coming Back By Thomas L. Stokes

CAEN, France, March *28.— Francé has started on the road back. But {t's a long, hard road. A tour through the Normandy country: poses some of the problems. There are the wrecked towns, such as this one, which were in the path of the invading armies, now long passed. . The memory of war still is constantly sharpened by the continued. presence of troops, in the towns, up and down the roads, American, French and British] by the great numbers of German prisoners seen every= where; by the hospitals; hy the cemeteries where the white crosses blink in the sunlight. The wrecked towns are a constant reminder, too.

French Are Returning to Their Homes

IT 1S DEPRESSING to ride through them, to look through the glassless windows in walls still standing,

of through great gaps in-the walls; -into-the desola= .

tion of empty rooms where even the sunshine brings no comfort: to see the bare spaces on the ground where once was a home; to look at the piles of debris, from which they still occasionally pull out bodies. It is depressing, too, to see the thrifty, tidy French moving about among the ruins, piling up the good bricks into neat piles. Then you realize that this all resolves itself in the end to individual, personal problems, this business of getting back to living. The spring is bringing the French back to their homes. They are coming in from the country where they spent the winfer, those who were bombed out, to see about the job of restoration. Every French family seems to have relatives in the country. They are great people for “kissing-kin” and the other kind: Like the people in our own South, they are strong on cousins.

Farmers Are Back in Their Fields

THERE IS a sharp contrast in Normandy between the towns where the bombs dropped and the artillery pounded and the country which was damaged but little. The farmers and their families are back in the fields again, doing the spring plowing. This agricultural and dairying region was a rich and flourishing country before the war and it is flourishing now. It may be recalled how amazed the American soldiers were when they went through this section, after hearing the stories of the French suffering from hunger. There has been plenty of food here, and still is, The. people are healthy looking, the children rosy= cheeked and sturdy, even in the smaller towns. They have eaten well and still do. It is different in the large cities and particularly in Paris, where there is hunger and suffering. Espe« cially among people who cannot afford the black market. The problem is one of transportation and distribution, of moving food from rich, productive country, such as this, to the cities. The Americans are helping where they can with

transportation and food, but the aim is to get the °

French to provide transportation. American trans= port is neelled at the front and, to supply the front.

There Is Resentment Over Bombing:

THE FRENCH government is now depending on the Normandy section for food for the cities. - But it's not too easy. The people, like most other people, are concerned with looking out for themselves. : This region was not touched physically by the last war. No armies fought through here then. Although the allies have liberated ‘this area and the armies have gone on, there is a resentment. among the people here over the bombing of their towns. Now that the enemy has beén driven out, and they face the manifold problems of reconstruction they ask why

If being called a “snake” didn't do the job—and the male felt inclined to repeat the act—all the woman had to do was swing her pocketbook. The spirit is not strong whefi the back is broken, you know.

IY YOTTeY CV Tay 5

By Daniel M. Kidney.

WASHINGTON, March 28.— That the Bretton Woods monetary proposals may prove less expensive for the United States than direct loans to foreign nations was contended here today by Rep. Gerald Landis (R. Ind), A total loss of six billion dollars would be possible under the Bretton Woods plan, but direct loans might mean an even greater loss he said. The Hooosier con= gressman attempted to “spell out” what these proe

posals mean in a letter to his seventh district cone :

stitutents. It reads: “Many of the country’s biggest bankers and monetary experts think the Bretton Woods proposals are complicated. The Bretton Woods proposals aimed at a single, stable standard by which the value of our present moneys could be judged—a day by day measurement, ; : “Of course it takes up the price of gold and silver, put it also has to consider wages, the price of a dinner, and the number of times you go to movies. “Under these proposals the United States would obligate itself to an investment of almost six billion dollars and a voting power of 28 per cent.

Fund Deals Only With Treasuries

“THE PLAN provides for a fund and a bank. The fund is to deal only with treasuries, .central banks, or other fiscal agencies of member countries, and not with individuals or private concerns. It deals with short term ‘loans. A member's borrowing may not exceed 25 per cent of its quota in any one year. The fund provides machinery for consultation and cole laboration on international monetary matters. “The bank follows the same general lines as that of the fund. It deals with long term loans, It may make direct loans from its own-or from borrowed funds, and it may also guarantee private loans, (This is, however, receiving much criticism because the taxpayers must make good any losses from money borrowed from the international bankers.) “Our quota in the fund is $2,750,000,000 and our subscription to the bank is $3,100,000,000. Great Britain's quota in the fund is $1,300,000,000 and to the bank $1,300,000,000. Their voting power is 13.5 per cent, but included with all their possessions is 25 per cent. Russia's quota in the fund is $1,200,000,000 and the same amount to the bank. Their voting power is 12.5 per cent. China's voting power -is 5.8 per cent and France's 4.8 per cent, “Each member nation would have 250 votes plus | one vote for every $100,000 of its capital subscription,

Seeks to Reduce Obstacles to Trade
