Eleven to Play Nutmegs Sunday. Manager James Scott of the Nut- megs football team has booked the Steam Rollers of Providence, R. I., 10 appear here next Sunday afternoon | at Vibberts field. This ag3regation has established itself as one of the greatest in the New England states, and has in the lineup a number of college stars of past years. For the past three seasons the Nutmegs man- agement has endeavored to clinch a zame with the team from Little Rhody. Last year rain prevented a scheduled game in this city. In or- der to book the coming attraction, the Nutmegs management has agreed to pay a big guarantee. Eddie Barn- izow, the flashy halfback, has been elected captain of the Nutmegs, and George C. Cassidy will hereafter handle the coaching reins. that weight. The team will practice at 7:30 o'clock tomorrow night. The trip to Meriden will be made Sunday in auto trucks, leaving Arch street at 1 o'clock.

On September 23 we had our 3 ; * 3 e g &l cash statement as of August 31, the second cash statement that it has been possible for the mew board to have since it took office. On the same date our operating account-for the month of August was presented and three weeks ago the result of the in- ventory of all of the shipping board’s materials and supplies (not including plants, ships or accounts) was avail- able for the consideration of the hoard - BOAR 5y [F AT X liquidation.” 3 \ The American nation today is pos- sessed of 1,450 oceangoing steel ships of about 10,000,000 tons deadweight, the speaker said, adding that he had considered only steel bottoms since “eradication” of all concrete and wooden hulls had been determined upon. He estimated the cost of the available fleet at $3,500,000,000 which, he said, could be entirely written off, as one of the major factors in the vic- tory over Germany “without owing one penny to the American people.” “It was because of this flee Mr. Lasker asserted, “that we were able to move the enormous volume of Am- erican manufacture and raw materials at a time when there was a stortage ot world topnage. It was because of these ships that our factories, farms and mines were able to operate at top speed when the boys returning from the front were seeking employment.” The speaker predicted that the ship- ping fleet “would no longer be a bur- den to the American taxpayer.” Losses had been checked, he said, and not more than $5,000,000 a month would be required from now until the end of the fiscal year. “The liquidation of the three and one-half billion dollars of the corpo- ration's assets will, at any time, realize but a fraction of the original cost, be- cauge the fleet was built with under- standable waste and high expense dur- ing war pressure,”” Mr. Lasker 'con- ceded. “The money loss in liquida- tion need not be considered, since it has already been written off in the cost of the war and, as here outlined, served a function in full value. “What remains, tnhough, are the ships-—potentially one of the greatest assets America has to insure its eco- nomic future, which means to insure the pursuit of happlness by its peo- ple.” The shipping of all nations, he said, has suffered as a result of the decrease in trade and the increase of construc- tion since May, 1920, which has had the result of placing “an excess of 20,000,000 tons of shipping” in the ocean carrying market. Half the ton- nage now laid up is under foreisn flags, he added. Mr. Lasker said the Jones Ship bill had been framed with the evident pur- pose of removing disabilities suffered by American vessels as a result of the higher cost of construction and higher standards of maintenance in this coun- try. Declaring that there are many who “do not wish the status quo changed the speaker demanded that “these hos tile forces from within and without, sowing seeds of discord and distrust, ba met and vanquished For the sake of your babies see our baby today FOR years this has been our hope— to develop a small hot-water radi- ator-boiler that would warm a modest home as perfectly as our larger heat- ing plants have warmed mansions, cathedrals, and even the W hite House itself. ARcoLA is the practical fulfilment of that hope. ARrcoLA is the baby of the American Radiator Company. It is unlike any heating plant you have ever seen. It is boiler, radiator and water-heater combined—as hand- some as a fine phonograph and cost- ing hardly any more. ARcoLA creates and radiates warmth in the room where it is placed, and connected with American Radiators, it will heat every other room and pro- vide hot water for bathing and wash- ing as well.
