PAGE EIGHT THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1922 What's New On The Market Bringing Up Father By George McManus- Copyright 1920 by H. C. Fisher Trade mark Keg. U. S. Pat. Office. By ltc-i Stewart An Increase in the price ot family flour in expected within a short time. Bakers flour went up 20 cents on the barrel yesterday, and a further increase is. ex pected. The fluctuation in prices to bakers seldom affects those to the consumer. This time; how ever, it will be added storage charges on wheat that the con sumer will have to pay. In spite of the increase in eggs on the Portland market prices here remained the same this morn ing. If Portland price holds steady, however, the local market will necessarily rise. There is little California grape fruit on the market at present, but the condition of that from Florida and California is fair. Prices of 15 cents straight and two for a quarter prevail. Brussel sprouts are being of fered at 20 cents a pound in fair supply and quality. There is a small amount of red cabbage still on the market at seven cents a pound.

Crain How long before baseball In Salem is going to be taken out of the category of endowed charities and placed on a business basis? When is the annual drive for the benefit of paid ball players to be stopped? The yearly Interrogation of the over-solicited business man of the city is once more being voiced.

ORGANIZED PROTEST ONLY HOPE Did he reverse his reasoning, credit his intelligence with the wisdom of not signing and demand that the game here be lifted out of the class of orphaned charities, there would be some hope of abolishing the annual subscription list pest. Bred as it is Into Americans from childhood up, the -game of baseball has a justifiable place in the community, but only as a well established and efficiently managed institution catering to the lovers of the sport and protecting those with whom the club must have business dealings. The time when the "town team" was a volunteer organization of young men playing for love of the sport and when the gate receipts, if there were anyt wont to some civic improvement fund, or charitable cause is" past. Today, even in the smaller cities and towns, baseball Is a commercial proposition from which the players make all or part of their living. ' Baseball Is an amusement just as moving pictures are amusements, and should be treated as such. A theater which depended upon public subscriptions for finances simply wouldn't be. True, the financial returns from a baseball team are not of such proportions as to attract individual promoters strongly In a city the size of Salem If the existing subsidy practice were discontinued, but there Is no reason why a "bush league" ball club here should not be made permanent and self supporting on a non-profit basis that would eliminate the annual spring "Donation Day" feature. SOLUTION LIES IN CONTROL The solution of the problem lies 'in the organization of a hold ing company deriving Its capital stock from the Initial subscriptions of the members. A board of directors elected by the stockholders should hire the team manuger, fix the salaries of the players and have complete control over the club's finances, thereby guarantee ing the administration of the club's affairs on a business basis that would keep expenditures within the limits of the actual Income. Invested In equipment, ground Improvements and the like the original subscriptions would represent permanent capital that could be carried over from year to year Intact, with the profits during the season caring for maintenance and depreciation and creating a sink ing fund to be carried over the next year as a reserve upon which to start operations. Properly managed, such an organization would within a few years provide the city with a creditable ball park and n highly organized team. The plan has been worked successfully elsewhere and can be worked here. CLUB NOW COMMUNITY LIABILITY As It has exlBted spasmodically from season to season on the strength of annual donations, the local ball club has been a liability rather than an aBset to the community. Almost bound to carry the team through the season to protect their original subscriptions, the "good fellows" who start the ball rolling are constantly called upon to keep It rolling. The prepetuatlng Impetus takes the shape of the sale of sign board spaces In the ball park, then the hiring of one of , ,.,,jr , ..,,. the players who "needs the work" to paint the sign; the "little httle K' McNett' w,ldow of Attor subscription" to meet the deficit on the last game when all of the proceeds were split among the players, leaving the club without a cent ot working money; the collection to pay for Improving the out field. The merchant who sells the equipment Is usked to quote cost prices. The players must be paid, so little bills here and there are left for the future to take care of. And the future sees the merchants charging them off to profit and loss. This sort of thing will continue Just so long as the business men and sport fans continue to dig up to finance the ungoverned oner- It Is the only school of mechanical treatment giving a physician's full four year course of study.
