RAINIERS
LOSE CAME,
8TH FRAME
__
(By the Associated Press)
Dewey Soriano, a Pacific Coast
League pitching veteran who went
on to become President of the Yak
ima club in the Western Interna
tional League, made another come
back appearance last night. He
should have stayed in Yakima.
The Seattle Rainiers called Dewey
back because they figured his old
arm might still have enough spring
in it to help out in the stretch drive.
The speculation might pay off yet,
but that game last night with Los
Angeles was a tough one to lose,
especially for Soriano.
Officially, Soriano didn't face a
single batter. He relieved starter A1
Gerheauser in the eighth inning,
walked two men, then was pulled
out. But the men he walked subse
quently scored; the runs were
charged to Dewey; Los Angeles won,
7 to 6, and that’s the way it goes
With baseball executives. Rough all
over.
Elsewhere along the coast, San
Diego gained a half notch cn the
league leading Oakland Acorns by
coasting past Hollywood, 4 to 2. The
Oaks split a double header with last
place Sacramento, losing the opener,
5 to 2, but taking the afterpiece, 3
to 2. Portland staved off a ninth in
ning rally to trim San Francisco, 9
to 7, in the other contest.
To pitcher Red Adams goes the
credit for putting out the San Fran
cisco fire. Portland led by 9 to 3
going into the eighth.

YANKS HALF
GAME IN LEAD
FOR PENNANT
• (By the Associated Press)
The New York Yankees once
again are a half game ahead in the
American League pennant battle to
day, thanks to an old alumnus, Papa
Joe Gordon.
Gordon, in one of the most dra
matic games of the stretch drive,
smashed a ninth inning home run
last night to give the Cleveland In
dians a 4-3 victory over the Detroit
Tigers. The defeat dumped the
Tigers out of a first place tie with
the Yanks into second position.
Papa Joe led off the last of the
ninth with his game-winning blow
after the Tigers had tied the score
at 3-3 on a two-out, two-run homer
by Don Kolloway in the top of the
ninth.
The Yanks and the third-place
Boston Red Sox were idle. They
opened a two-game series in the |
Yankee Stadium today.
Here’s the picture in a nutshell: i

Boston . 89 55 .618 2 10
Two of the game’s crack left
handers, Mel Parnell of the Red Sox ^
and Eddie Lopat of the Yanks,
were the opposing pitchers in the .
important game at the Stadium to- j
day. They boasted identical 17-8
records, with Parnell riding the j
crest of a nine-game winning streak, j
The Indians scored all of their
rvns in last night's thrilling en- |
ccunter after two outs. Big Luke
Easter drove in their first three j
n ns off Hal Newhouser, who went |
the distance for Detroit.
Easter socked his 28th homer after
Larry Doby walked with two down
in the first inning to give Bob
Feller a 2-0 working margin.
Feller breezed along in great style
| until two were out in the ninth.
Johnny Groth then singled and Kol
loway followed with his sixth homer
i to tie the score.
\ In the only National League game,
the Pittsburgh Pirates edged the
Cincinnati Reds, 8-7, in ten innings
under the lights at Forbes Field.
Pinch-hitter Wally Westlake broke
I up the game with a two-run single.

GEORGE E. SUKOLSKY
HOARDING
A few things need to be said
I about hoarding, controls and prof
itreriii! When the public raided
the locers for sugar, they were
| responding to their experiences of
j to h World War I and World War
II when sugar became exceedingly
| scare Much of that scarcity was
due t i lack of shipping and to the
| profiteering cf the Cubans, who
I took advantage of an unfortunate
j situation. There is no shortage of
shipping and there is plenty of
sugar in the world at this mo
i m?nt„
It normal for a family to
j stork up, even in a land of auto
: mobile; and chain store groceries.
•Tlu tv j< even such an instrument
| us a deep freeze which is being
sold as a device for keeping the
1: dir full. It used to be tha*
c\ t hr usehcld did that against
, the winter.
Senator George W. Malone of
1 Nf\r has a way cf putting these
| tk ;i very sharply. He said:
. . The tirade against provl
| clc . American housewives for
|1 ‘a;t!ng a few extra pounds of
jsui. cr something else which is
no; rce, comes with ill grace
ft in an administration which is
the piize hoarder of all time—
192.000. 000 pounds of butter, and
buyiiui up more at the rate of
9.000. 000 pounds a week; 170,000.000
pounds cf dried eggs, and buying up
moit at the ra'e of 15,000,000
pounds a month: 104,000,000 pounds
ci cheese, and buying up more nt
■ the rate of 15,000,000 pounds a
month. The government has
hoarded 50 million dollars worth
of dried milk, is buying up pota
toes at a rate that will cost the
American taxpayers 87 million dol
lars this year alone—and that is
only the beginning of the list. The
government is hoarding all kinds
of foodstuffs in caves and bulging
warehouses and old airplane hang
ars from Maine to California . . .”
The government does not hoard
against bad times. It hoards to
keep prices high, Joseph, the son
of Jacob, one of the founders of
mv kind, invented the ever-normal
granary. It was the result of a
dream in which lean cows con
sumed fat ones. To Joseph, an
astute psychologist and politician,
that meant that after seven years
of plenty, there would be seven
years of famine, and during the
famine everything would be con
sumed that was saved during the
plenty.
Of course, to turn the trlek at
all. there had to be savings. So
Joseph set up a system of filling
the granaries and silos and ware
houses. In the end, the Egyptians
had to buy back their own wheat
at steeper prices, and the govern- I
incnt owned everything- their jew- !
els, their furnishings, everything. ]
Now our system is not due to
scarcity but to plenty. We have so
much that we fear the consequen
ces of plenty. There is no fear of
famine; the fear is that prices'
will go down sufficiently to en
courage farmers to vote against
‘he party in power.
• We could have shipped this ple
thora, or part of it, to people who
lack nourishing foods, but then
ue might upset them by raising
their standards of living too rapid
ly. That, our wise men regard ns
t o dangerous, although those of
us who are not so wise wonder
why. It seems so indecent to let
butter turn rancid when so many
could use it. There was a time
when Americans would not have
stowed food in caves when children
were with insufficient food. The
children's fund of the United Na
tions R*es begging while we hoard
eggs.
The United States is giving away
dollars, but men cannot eat dol
lars, nor automobiles, nor radios,
nor even deep-freezes, nor even
[ the government factories that are
built because of our dollars. They
can eat the food our government
hoards and which we find so use
less that we have no plans for
disposing of it. In fact, even in
time of war we plan to hoard
mere—not each family filling its
larder, but the government' hiding
it from its own people to keep up
prices and to produce scarcity. |
It is something for all Amer-i
icans to think about, because we|
need to keep our consciences clean
and fresh. We shall scon be rush
ing about preparing for Thaksgiv
ing and then for Christmas. While
; we do that, perhaps we can also
think or tne waste, the useless,
sinful waste of food which could
feed millions and now feeds no
body. I

Let the Present Administration of the
. , . j | -ovsu .cimav/oiioi ioj
Territory of Alaska Answer This:
An examination of your record in administering the affairs of the
Territory of Alaska during the last two years reveals the following out
standing examples of public service:
1— One member of your administration in prison for
embezzlement of public funds.
2— Two other officials in ycir administration fired
as unfit for public service.
3— An illegal special session of the legislature call
ed by your administration which resulted in the
waste of $42,Q00 in public funds.
4— Half the fish trap tax declared illegal — loss to
the Territorial treasury, $2,000,000.
5— Properly tax law declared illegal — loss to the
Territorial treasury, $2,500,000.
6— Disclosure of 20 violations of Territorial law in
the handling of the people's money — brought
to light by an audit which yonr administration
managed to delay for five years in contraven
tion of Alaska statutes.
7— More than $5,000,000 (a record sum) in appro
priations made by the last legislature "frozen"
because of un-businesslike and improper gang
ing by your administration of income against
expenditures for the biennium.
8— The Palmer land deal (need 1 say more?).
9— Entire appropriation for loan to Territorial vet
erans board withheld by your administration
until Juneau geniuses read "fine print" in law;
thereafter a small proportion made available
for servicemen's benefits.
10— Favored members of the legislature placed on
the public payroll: viz, Stanley McCutcheon,
$5,600 fee; Warren Taylor, $1,800 fee; Victor
Rivers, $4,200 fee etc.
11— Former representative of ambassador from
Communist Poland hired by statehood commit
tee to lobby for statehood and paid $8,000 of the
people's money under peculiar and unexplained
circumstances.
12— Ex-Convict COOPER, appointed Rank Examiner.
In view of the foregoing9 your very evident concern over an open
tliscussion of the issues of ihe 1950 campaign is understandable9 as is
your desire to fittach someone, anyone9 to draw attention away from
yourselves•
