As I see it, I owe it to them to state fully and clearly my beliefs with all 'the sincerity there 1! in me. “As 1 see it I must not, as I seek to gain votes for my party, yield to | the temptation which often comes to | men who are candidates, to make false appeals and appeals, though they might' be successful at the moment, do not serve truth or do not meet the requirements of our na- tional dignity. “As I see it, 1 must not drag the attention of the American people into ; a mire when it is their wholehearted desire that their attention should be centered upon the problems which we all wish to face bravely and wisely and together.. As I see it, I must con- centrate my attention upon construc- tion and not upon abuse. As I see it, I must be patient and tolerant with those Americans who may differ with me. “If I were to stoop to insincerity, to mere clamor, to political expediency, to appeals to special classes, I would be failing in that purpose which I trust shall always be mine; not my own interest, not even the intergst of my party first, but America first.” JUDGE TAIIHANY EXPLAINS 'Oounsd for’ Scllu'k, Alleged Embez- zler, Explains Nature of Federal Warrant Served.

President of Chicago Cubs Investiga- ting Reports That His Men Lost Game to Philadelphia for Money. Sept. 4.—President Wil- liam Veeck of the Chicago National leggue baseball team today began an investigation of charges that the Cubs had deliberately lost last Tuesday’'s game which Philadelphia won 3 to 0 and that professional gamblers “cleaned up” in a betting coup as a result. Mr. Veeck said he had no evidence either to prove or disprove the charges but would make every effort to sift the matter to the bottom. “My impression has been that there was less gambling this year than ever Chicago, might be attributed to the fact that we went after some fellows pretty hard last year.” Mr. Veeck referred to 'certain play- ers who were let out for “indifferent - ball playing” -last year. The basis of the charges made in connection with Tuesday’s game is that Detroit, Boston, Cincinnati and Chicago gamblers are said to have placed $50,000 on Philadelphia, forc- ing the odds on Tuesday's.game fron 2 to 1 on the Cubs to 6 to 5 on the { Phillies.
