THE PRODUCTIVITY 0F UNSE- 2
‘ BALL
Tile war department has ruled ;that
baseball is a notlproductive inaction;
tion. audio player of draft age must
either get into some form of war work
or join the army. its decision 'folE
lows hard upon the verdict of a draft
board at Brightonhlliass” which has
attractedimaflodal attention."l‘hdt=ver§
diet was rendered in the case of ‘3
Boston National League player and"
‘ represented a characteristic case. The
war department “Seems to have ac-
cepted the principles there laid dowtt.
There‘ has been a general impression
that nothing‘would’be ‘tlone.to “interrl
{are with professional baseball. in
least during tho-present season. De-
votees of‘tbe’gfime lino'arguedthatvit
serves a useful purpose in providing
wholesome recreation and keépin up
the public ‘morale.‘and is therefore'itt
I sense; lfp'i‘ddllctlve." The Brighton
draft board did not agree with this
' 'vlew. it found thatf‘the'amouui of
6.1, recreation and relief from stress and
_' strain derived from baseball" by those
wh‘o..are going to war. or are engaged
" .t in war work. .has been “greatly over-
»v‘deatimated." Aft caredultipquiry ht—
y...:_~.tto than patronage ot‘the“ gains, the
._.,» board stated that there is not éiioilz‘h
_ public interest shown in bitséball this
season to justify any special‘privilegé
.‘for professional players. and they
.must accordingly expect to share in
the sacrlfces-‘dematl‘ded of. their‘felv
. low-citizens in other occupations.’ .
This, then. becomes the official visit?
of the war department. it looks like
a fair decision. ‘towvhlch‘the geneFal
publicdhas ttot disposition to object.
.We still-like baseball as much as ev-
er, but thevwar comes‘first. “And till
‘proiessimal'players can find staple;
scopelfor their talents in the war-zone

LIBERTY LOAN EXPENSES
lt may'ibe‘doubt‘ed lltltitetberr‘slty ”mil
lion ever got so much value for a giv.
‘ en amount of money as the United
" States has igot‘tor ihevxenpead'lture-of
a certain 32.709.480.30 during the past
year. That is'the precise ' cost of
floating our three big Liberty lbsns._
For that expenditurewwhich went
mostly for paper, engraving and clerk
litre—the treasury department has got
" nearly nine, billions of cash. The rais-.
lag of that vast sum of money actually
cost the government. only 4a little moré
than two’ cents for every $100 raised.
It is the cheapest Fondidlstribntion'ou

Most of the credit, no doubt, should
