VI. 191'!). 1 tfodaypLETICS By Arthur Brisbane TAIT T 1 1 fl R The Brain's White TemplE MacDonald's Work. College for Atheists. Lesson for Farmers. (CopyrlRht by Kins Features Syndicate, Inc.) Manufacturers of safes, co operating; with electricians, have made a frantic steel box so delicately arranged that it sounds an alarm if a burglar so miieli as lays liis hand on it. The slightest touch, even (lie laying of a hat on top of the safe, is felt, reported, and brings policemen. .Such things amaze ns, but each of us is just such a safe. A system of nerves eoverini; tjjip whole body, sounds the alarm when anything is punc tured or touched. And the brain always knows what is l'o ing on in the outside world. Lying, eohl and gray, inside its "ivory temple" it sees, hears, feels, tastes and smells, and we don't know how. There's a really wonderful s.ife. Uamsay Macbonald's work in America is well done. The United States and Britain have solemnly pledged themselves against war as between the two countries, and to tbe promotion of peace by all proper menus everywhere. What the future will bring'. forth, what the British govern nient, following the present la Jior government, or what Amer ican public opinion nuiy desire in the future, no one can say. But at least, war has been classed as barbarous. The two most powerful nations in the world have declared against it and that, is progress. it took human beings thou isauds of centuries to abandon rannibiilism ; undoubtedly, they resolved to eat men no longer. And over and over the resolu tion was broken when hunger eame and the edible man was easily caught. But cannibalism has disap peared. AM) WAR WILL DISAP PEAR. Nevertheless, in days when more civilized men were jgiving up cannibalism, they Akept themselves ready to repel those that might come to eat tliem. The United States and (irent Britain, denouncing and aban doning war as between Britain and America, should k e'e p ready and able to repel others that might seek to enforce war upon them.

(P) Overhaul iiiK the L'hlcaKu Culis with an uniuz 1ns 10-iun rally in the sevetli in niiur. tlu irrcatest in world's series history, the Philadelphia Athletics j toduy haltered their way to vict-1 tory, 10 to S, before ail hysterical home-town crowd of 30.000. It gave the American league champions their third triumph in four games. Leuding l,y .1 to 1, the men of Mack now need only one more vic tory to win the world's baseball championship. They can settle it in the fifth Knmc, scheduled here Monday. TrallinK by eicht runs going into the seventh, with the Cubs seem ingly headed for a one sided win that would even the series count, the Athletics let loose an attack that dwarfed anything in series records. They hatted four pitchers for 10 hits, including home runs by Al Simmons and (ieorge Haas, and 15 men went to the plate in an orgy, that held the crowd wild. The big barrage eclipsed tile for mer record of eight hits and eight runs in a single series Inning, made on October 7, 1921, by the New York Cilanls, who also staged their rally in the seventh and finally won by V.i to 5. . Nothing In the batting ling, how- over, had ever been ns dramatic as this comeback. T h e Athletics looked n dejected, beaten team after being shut out by Charley Hoot for the first six innings, with only three hits. The Chicago ma chine guns. Ilornshy, Wilson, Cuy ler, Stephenson and Grimm, had knocked old Jack Quinn out of the box in the sixth and continued an attack on Untie W'olherg to stage a five-run rally. lirimm's homer, with Cuyler on base, had started their scoring in the fourth and it looked like a rout until the light ning hit Hoot at the outset of the seventh.

'rime Minister ltumsuy MacUm- ald has brought to uu end his peace mission to tho United States. A very tired man after the ef forts of the past week, tho Hritish Htutusman today began a two days' rest before guiug to Canada to be gin there the stupendous task that lies ahead in working out the many problems to the solution of which he and President Hoover huvo pledged themselves. In his tulk, which continued (or nearly an hour, the prime minister spoke with a feellug which wurf apparent alike in his voice and his gesture. He gave some intimate details of how he and the president carried on their personal negotia tions in the wilderness of the Vlr- study at the White House. Asks Patience Mbro than that, ho undertook to again reassure the world that what took place was solely for the pro motion of universal peace and be appealed to the American people for patience, for understanding, for good will, while tho Hritish people are replacing the old furniture in their minds with now and more modern furniture o naval limltn--tion and parity. His message to the other nations regarding the conversations be tween President Hoover and him self was briefly but earnestly de livered. "I want to say quite definitely und clearly," he said, "I want the whole world to know It, and I say it without any reserve and any withholding of any kind whatever, that during the en tiro course of our conversations there has never been any Idea whatever of an ex clusive understanding between Grent Britain and the United States." i, 1 DISBARMENT ACTION WILL COME THURSDAY PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 12.
