(By Associated Press) - CHICAGO. March 15. Responsibility for delay In the trial of the Indicted players and others In the baseball scandal -was thrown upon the state by President Johnson of the American league in a statement made public today. He declared there would have been no controversy such as caused the postponement of the opening hearing yesterday until Thursday if the cases had not been bungled when they first came up before the grand jury. "It would be a calamity to organized baseball if these cases resulted in a fiasco for lack of evidence," said Johnson, "because it would embolden other players to take chances. "We have been handicapped by the change In administration of the state's attorney's office and by the congestion of the criminal court docket. During the general Jury examination many important witnesses who were summoned were excused without testifying. Charges Non-Interest. "This was explained by the fact that it was deemed wise to uncover only

sufficient evidence needed for the in dictments without disclosing all the evidence to the defense. Since the election the state's attorney's office has been swamped with criminal cases with the jails full of people awaiting trial. Naturally the state is not as ardently interested in protecting baseball from gambling as it is in protecting its citizens from criminals. "For that reason Former Judge Charles F. Barrett was retained by the American League as special assistant to the prosecution. All that he has asked Is time to collaborate to the end that sufficient new evidence shall be produced to Insure successful prosecution of the Indicted men. Hint At New Names, - "It is entirely within the limits of probability that the names of several players who have not been mentioned in connection with the cases will be uncovered before we get through with them." The testlmonv of Eddia Cieotte. Claude Williams and Joe Jackson, who i confessed before the grand jury their share In throwing the 1919 world's serlea is lost to the state, it was said in court yesterday, as they would refuse to testify on the ground they could not be forced to Incriminate themselves. Henry Berger, Representative Abe Attell, and others mentioned in the indictments, told Judge William E. Deever and Charles Nims. named in the Indictment for technical reasons as a person who lost $250 in a wager on the "crooked series," had come to his office and offered to "sell out." Berger added that his associate had thrown Nims out of the office. HOLLANSBURG FORMS FARM ORGANIZATION; IRELAN IS CHAIRMAN HOLLANSBURG. O., March 15 Organization of the farmers' association of this township was completed at a meeting of the members of the Darke county farm bureau, conducted at the grange hall here Monday evening. Election of officers and discussion of programs of work which should en- ' gage the activities of the association, were the principal features of the meeting. George Irelan was elected township chairman, J. L. Beatty, secretary and Ernest Ginger vice chairman. Hendricks Explains Objects Over fifty men were present for the organization meeting, and in addition, t&bout half as many women. The meeting was called to order by County Agent Hendricks, who addressed it, telling of the work done, and activities undertaken by the farm bureau, emphasizing the point that the biggest benefits would not be such as could be measured in dollars and that it was illogical to expect the membership fee to return cash dividends at once, although as a matter of fact, that had been the case with some work done in the past year which had paved much more than the ten dollar fee to every farmer. Hendricks mentioned legislative and other work done by the bureau, and pointed out the possibilities and the plans which had been made for the future. Reporting on the status of the Darke county farm bureau Hendricks ctaled that about $7,200 was available THMiiiiiiuiiinnn

GOVERNMENT BEGINS DISSOLUTION SUIT (By Associated Press) ST. LOUIS, March 15. Arguments were scheduled to be heard before Federal Judge Farls here today in the suit of the government, looking toward dissolution of the Southern Pine association. Charging violation of the Sherman anti-trustt law, the government is seeking an injunction against the association, 61 corporations and 69 individuals to end an alleged conspiracy to curtail the supply and increase the price of yellow pine lumber. A motion has been filed that judge Faris disqualify himself for hearing the case on the ground that he is prejudiced against several of the individual defendants, who were members of the Southern Pine Manufacturers' association in 1913. Judge Faris, then a member of the Missouri supreme court, wrote the When a Doctor Sneezes Doctori. oat in all kinds of vuf&ii. offer frequently from coUs yet addon seriously. There's a good reason.

My Neighbor

My Neighbor lets weeds grow in his garden, he lets his house run down, and all his family look patched. My Neighbor decides many important things; and he is sure all things would be all right if they were done his way. My Neighbor decided long ago that advertising was waste; that he would never read it because he did not want any one to tell him what to buy. My Neighbor may be right. The moon may be made of green cheese. But, as I see it, My Neighbor is no neighbor of mine; he just lives next door because he was born fifty years too late. My Neighbor spends as much money to live poorly as I do to live well. As most of my money goes to meet living expenses, I want all the ood things it will bring me.

Advertisements tell me all about these good things. Advertisements give me the opportunity to compare all variety of things I would buy. Advertisements help me pick the the best for my purpose and my purse.

Im.

the charge against him was changed from assault and battery to assault and battery with intent to kill. The altercation is said to have happened about noon Monday. Green states that he was investigating a leak in the roof of a barn which he owns and which Hunt rents. Both men refused to discuss the happenings immediately preceding the attack. The intervention of Williams is said to have stopped the fight between the two men.

I will not argue with my neighbor he may be right but, personally, I would rather be myself than be neighbor. I know reading advertisements saves money for me.
