Earnshaw, who gained two decisions during the week, took a sizeable lead over Grove in strikeouts. His title was 77, ten better than the fireball southpaw’s mark.

President Hopes To Speed End of World Depression (Continued from page one) and Democratic leaders over tis German reparations problem. A plan for a world holiday on war debts and reparations for one or two years has become uppermost in Pres- ident Hoover's conferences for relief of the European financial situation. Several other possible remedies al- so were being discussed Saturday, | 4a: however, as he continued meeting with members of congress of both Parties, He has imposed a strict in- junction of silence on the proposals he has in mind to strengthen Ger- many’s position and to prevent a critical world-wide economic unset- tlement. Reduction or cancellation of the wat debts has been ruled out by the president as one of the remedies be- cause of the opposition to it in con- Gress. This leaves the moratorium plan as the next available remedy and upon this subject the confer- ences now are centered. The talks with members of congress will continue into next week. Chair- man Smoot, of the senate finance committee, is being awaited. Mean- while, the president was said at the white house Saturday to be con- templating the early issuance of a comprehensive statement on the whole question. Before his usual working hour Sat- urday the chief executive had at his office Assistant Secretary Castle, of state, and Assistant Secretary Mills of the treasury. Soon after he conferred with Sena- tor Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona, who refused to comment upon leav- ing the executive offices. Ashurst was followed by Repre- sentative Treadway, Republican, of Massachusetts. Representative Tilson, of Connecti- cut, the house Republican leader, who took part in the beginning of the dis- cussion Friday, spent Friday night at the white house. No Formal Engagements The president, in view of the de- velopments concerning the German situation, had no formal engagements for the day. As a general rule there are from six to'a dozen regular ;call- ers. “ President Hoover's plan to help Germany was. awaited Saturday as a Possible next step in combatting the world business slump. It was indicated Mr. Hoover would hold further conferences with poli- tical leaders before bringing to ma- turity the proposals which he said would be designed to speed economic improvement in the United States and abroad, especially in Germany. After several discussions Friday, the president issued this statement: “Since my return from the central west yesterday I have conferred with those leaders of both political parties who are present in Washington with respect to certain steps which we might take to assist in economic re- covery both here and abroad. if “These conversations have been Particularly directed to strengthening the situation in Germany. No defi- nite plans or conclusions have yet been arrived at, but the response which I have met from the leaders of both parties is most gratifying. Any statement of plan or method is wholly Speculative and is not warranted by the facts.” Speculation Follows Despite that warning there was, of Speculation. Among steps which some insisted might be taken were @ moratorium of war debts and reparations and a loan to help Ger- many through her financial straits. Germany's recent cry that the bur- den of reparations payments was in- tolerable already had revived: dis- cussions of the fact that under the Young plan she might suspend the major portion of reparations pay- ments for two years. Provisions for a similar suspension were made in the war debt settle- business until the season was States, well under way, swooped to the top of the American League individual bat- ting race during the ninth week of the championship campaign.

He described the situa- tion as “grave.” The pontiff declared an accord was | not in-sight and negotiations really | had “not even begun.” He said the bishops of Italy report- ed “unrest in life, intensification of most odious surveillance, odious spy- ing, odious accusations and continu- ous menaces.” “This is a day of bitter sorrow that the height of God tempers with con- solation,” in the visit of the faithful and messages from all over the world, said the pontiff. “The whole Catholic world, and not only the Catholic world but a good Part of the remainder is with the Pope and behind the pope,” he said. He told his hearers he realized they hoped to hear something “‘ this moment, but the things we should say are too bitter. All may be summed in a word: it is not only in Mexico, not only in what we call ‘Bolshevik Russia’ that there is persecution of the church, a persecution that is said to be intended against the church.” They, he said, referring to the Fascists without naming them, “ap- pear trying to have it believed, espe- cially abroad, that things are not so very grave, that the incidents have been insignificant and sporadic, that all is passed and tranquillity restored. “Exactly the contrary is true—the truth lies in the contrary of all they seek to have believed, even in their country. We are not on the way to an accord and the negotiations are not even begun. Not only have we not entered a state of tranquillity, but everything possible has been done to maintain the menacing horizon. They have arrived at a point where they say the youth clubs, which they wish dissolved, cannot even meet silently.” Hope to Organize 3,000,000 Farmers Washington, June 20.—(@—The first meeting of the new national ag- ricultural conference in Chicago June 29 is expected to start the race be- tween friends and enemies of the farm board for power to rewrite the agricultural marketing act. The announced purpose of the meeting is to corral 3,000,000 farm families and an annual business of $7,000,000 behind a nationa: cam- paign for cooperative organization. The political significance of such an accomplishment suggests great voting strength for support of the current farm relief program, ‘Tt seems to be the desire of the ma- jority faction of organized agriculture to keep the farm board out of the 1932 campaign. Officials say they will try to get both the Democratic and Republican parties to avoid re- ferring to it. Kansas City Woman Golfer Takes Lead St. Louis Country Club, June 20. (®)}—Mrs. O. 8.
