VENDMENT | DISAPPROVED SARAMENTO, Calif, Oct. 3— Disapproval of the proposed twen- tieth amendment to the United States constitution prohibiting child labor was unanimously voted today by the convention of the American Mining congress. The resolution proposed bya Judge John F. Davis, of San Francisco, urging establishment of state de- partments of mines and mining in ! various western states was adopted without a dissenting vote. The problems which confront the silver producers‘ ‘much the same problems which the producers of gold, copper and zinc are obliged to meet.” W. Mont Ferry, president of the American Silver producers’ as- sociation told. the convention, in a paper read-by Henry M. Rives, sec- retary of the mine operators’ asso- ciation of Nevada.. Ferry was un- able to be present. ‘With the new association, Ferry said, ‘a more orderly and less ex- pensive marketing program will be adopted; the uses of silver in the arts and industries will be increased in the monetary use of the white metal will be promoted. That this last {s not a dream is evidenced by the very recent re-entry of P Germany and other central pean countries into the: market to purchase silver in order that they may rehabilitate their monetary system.” enter Ae TWO KILLED IN TRAIN CRASH ON TEXAS LINE SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Oct. 3.— A head-on collision today between two Southern ific freight trains near La Coste, dost two lives and several thousand dollars dam: The dead are: Engineer A.

WASHINGTOD Oct. 8,—Great oaks from Uttle acorns grow. John D. Rockefeller once was a lowly clerk. Charlie Schwab drove the in- ter-village stage. And Stanley Ray- mond Harris was just a breaker-boy in the Pennsylvania mines. Fate haw been kind since those lowly da; John D, is worth a» few billions, more or less. Charlie is the steel wizard of thé world. And “Sta at 27 ts about to go to bat in a world series as the only pilot who ever brought the Washington base- ball team honie a winner. In Bucky” Harris, as he stands | , dizzy at the peak, there is no envy of the Rockefeller million; no hankering after the corporate power of Schwab. In his chosen profes- sion, he has gone as far as any of the rest. ‘There is:one supreme ef- fort*before him. And the man who stands athwart the path to the ulti- mate pinnacle, {s a grim and grizzled warrior who snaps and snarls “He shall not pas: Stanley Harris 1s not afraid. Outside “his window, he sees the beanstalks rising to the skies. Sat- he begins his climb and in four or five trips to the mystic cas- tle, he hopes to bring home the Giants’ gold, the Giants’ Iittle brown hen that lays the go'den eggs and last of all, the magic harp which sings the most wonderful songs tn all the world. For Stanley Harris {s dreaming dreams. He sees himself as Jack the Giant Killer. He has drunk of the cup’ of “success. Destiny rides beside him as he fares forth to conquer the wotld and what vromises to be as hectic a series as the world has ever known. It would be difficult to tmagine ro more opposite types than Man- r Stanley Harris of the Senators and John Joseph McGraw of the Giants. McGraw, hard-boiled and d spoken. Harris, quiet, sym- thetic and soothing. Both men have accomplished this year the same end -by: separate means... One beer the hard-riding, whip-crack- ing cowboy! the ‘other ‘the’ gentle shepherd of his flock. . It. remains to be-seen what will happer when GoW pungher and the shepherd meet in a short but scintillant set-to of the best ‘four.in seven. * Around John McGraw clusters the tradition of thf master’ mind, the supreme strategist of all baseball istory the field marshal of a score of hard-fought campaigns. Pitted igainst him is the novice, the raw recruit: in the baseball classic, the “buck” private, young enough to be his son, but already proved worthy t7any man’s steel. Does, Stanley Harris dread the meeting with the old master?, Does he quake in fear of being shown up vy the little Napoleon of the nation- 11 game? ~He does not. For Harris is clothed in the bright and audaci- ous armor of youth—the youth that fears no adversary. Perhaps if think its Hallowe‘en and chase the Jack-o-Lanterns to thelr lair. The basebal! world is asking two questions today: How much credit for the record-breaking performance of the Senators is due to young Har: ris? And: How did Clark Griffith ever happen to name him? There is but one to answer these pertinent, these almost impertinent inquiries. © That m is Clark Grit. fith and the old fox likes nothing better than to meet the man with these queries on his ips. Griffith will tell you that he gave Harris the tools to work with, much the same s that other captains of the crew have had, and Harris did the rest Griffith assisted at the training grounds and when the goal was most-in sight “Griff” assisted with the pocketbook. Always willing to give such advice as ils superior years might warrant, but never attemprng to interfere. Griff. has let his’ young pilot take the men comple in charge and there are will tell you regard Stanley Harr eld er than Clark Griffith ever Harris is gifted’ with natural ball talents.

The run-killing combination of “Tinker, to Evers to Chante” was never as smart as the Senatorial bludgeon of “Peck to Harris to Judge.” In this connection, it may surprise some of the latter day fans to learn that Tinker and Evers played alongside eich other for four years and never spoke. They had quarreled about me pla here is no such spirit among the Washington Senators. Harris’ managerial duties have been Nghter than would ordinari y be the-case, for he has trusted each man to do his best and in return he has been idolized by the members of the team, He has an unquenchable spirite He bubbles over with enthu- siasm. His spirit is infectious. If a Giant makes a mistake, he lets Mc- Graw, worry over it. If a Senator youth knew more; perhaps if youth would stop.and think, it might be awed and afraid. But stopping and thinking are not the handmaidens of youth.

Grif- fith had another fron or two in the fire. But the fire went out or the irons got too hot to handle. At any rate something happened and the Old Fox decided one night to plunge on Harris. The baseball world as- tonished. It shrugged its shoulders and said Griff was going to try. to manage the team and be president at the same time, But Griff had no such intention. 4s the playing sea- son opened and the days flowed by; the Sefators did not fare so well. Yet Griff didn't worry. He had de- termined to let Harris work out h destiny. Griff told a number of peo- ple at Tampa last season that he felt_he had a pennant winning com. bination this year, but they merely smiled “and passed on to the “big show,” where the Tigers and the Yanks were being primed for-all thé honors that the year might give.
