Heydler of the national league today in discussing the outlook in the senior association, j ' "The national league will open its 47th annual pennant race on Wednesday, in possession of world's championship honors, well balanced clubs and the confidence and following of baseball patrons in both east and west-" he continued, "and I feel safe in perdicting high-class play ing, a close race and a fair share of the patronage which in .the past has caused baseball to be termed the national sport. : "At least five clubs in our league have a chance to win the 1922 pennant and, since nothing in certain in baseball, any one of the other three may spring a surprise and con found even the experts The New York club, of course, as the winner of the world's series last year, carries its strength and prestige over into this season. I- "Boston Pittsburgh and St. Louis, on the showing in 1921, must be given a chance and I am inclined to believe that these clubs are stronger today than . was the case seven months aga If Brooklyn gets off to a good start its pitching staff will carry the club far."

F0RDNEY TO FORCE ACTION ON TARIFF (Continued from page 1) ly had determined upon foreign valuation as the underlying prin ciple of the tariff bill, which probably will be reported to the s)nate tomorrow. "We now will insist on the or iginal American valuation plan as written in the house bill," Mr. Fordney continued. Senate Committee Wanted "The senate committee major ity went back on the compromise American wholesale selling price of the imported, article to which we agreed, and now that bargain is oft." " Asserting that the senate was "overwhelmingly" for American valuation, the house commiteo chairman said it was his Judge ment that the senate managers would agree to th4t valuation. When' the bill got into conference between the senate and the house. Finish InaLxted On " Mr. Fordney declared that he would never agree to congress ad journing until after the tariff bill had been passed. "It's nonsense to talk about such a thing." he said. "Any man who suggests such a thing wants to defeat the tariff and therefore i is an enemy to 'American industry ana labor." Reiterating that the house would not yie!d on the valuation quastion, Mr. Fordney said he dW not believe there were more than a dozea men on the Republican sid who would not "stand firm tor American valuation and fight It. out," j Many Wt-eSs Necessary . . "In Ihe case or many articles of ' import," continued Mr. Fordne" "thers i no duty short of 10.00. it 2000 per cent that would equalize thj difference between the Ameri can and foreign valuation. Such duties-would be extreme and the people would not stand for them.

Representative Longworth thought it would take from two to three months for the senate to pass the measure and this view seemed to be somewhat general at the capital. Lone Fights Expected v Long fights were expected on a number of the provisions in the bill, more , particularly those in volving dyes, hides,- shoes and leather, wool, 'cotton, lumber. metals and farm products. Many lesser controversies also were In prospect, centering around efforts of dry advocates to include in the bill general provisions aimed against liquor smuggling. PURDY CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNORSHIP (Continued rrom page, 1) 1 I presence in the background to re verse themselves and to plow out this seed that has been sown, that the desired results may be had I hav read In the ! public preas where parents have followed their offsprings as far as! the gallows after the conviction and sentence. What a devotion and what love those parents manifest for their own! How glad they would have neon if they, by their own vote, could have saved their own chil dren from such an awful fate! You say that justice must be met ed out to those violators of the law. If so, do you believe that the Republican par'y had a right to protect their own Senator New berry from paying the penalty for his wrong-doing by their own party vote? This is an example as to how far political parties can ko to protect those who go as tray. Newberry, that naughty boy, was even stopped from 'visit ing the prison as an honor guest after prima facia evidence of his wrong-doing which was brushed aside by his political parent the political party by their votes. It does not always seem like a square dear for everybody in our 'land of the free and the j home of the brave where office-holders should be content to register thenr name, and write thereafter 'Not my will but thine be done'."
