VtTH-UBMAl Patei/ Mahatma Gandhi LISZ. ja 1 nat the recent tomprom.ic between the Britwh Government and Ma hatma Gandhi not only saved the great Indian leader from starving him self to death, hut also prevented a bloody revolution it the contention of Vithalhhai J. Patel, former Lord Mayor of Bombay and president of the Indian Legislative Assembly, now on a visit to this country. Furthermore, i Mr. Patel confidently predicted that another ten years would see Mother India free of the shackles of allegiance to Great Britain. The former Meyor of Bombay, who is here aa parsonal ambassador of Mahatma Gandhi, of whom he is said to be the closest friend, sees in the British surrender on the electoral plan the first sign that the grip of the empire is breaking. Bui he asserts there is still a long fight ahead. The struggle tor independence now being waged by his country is, he says, not only India's affair but of importance to the entire world. For world trade and the world economic structure cannot thrive as long as vast regions like India are held in bondage and exploited to the benefit of one nation. I’he Indian statesman paid a tribute to George Washington by refer ring to our first President as “India’s inspiration in the fight for liberty and independence,” when he laid a wreath on Washington’s tomb at Mount Vernon.

New York Takes Four Games From Chicago In Series Yank'- Hammer 5 Pitcher* To Win l.ast Contest With Heavy Hitting Wrigley Field, Chicago. Oct. 3. In In a rip-roaring climax that smash ed world series records and blasted the last taint National league hopes to fragments, the New York Yankees rode rough shod yesterday to their third successive clean sweep in base ball's classic championship. By the record-busting score of 13 to 6. the American League cham pions overpowered and i ousted the last vestige of the defense of the Chicago Cubs. Five Bruin pitchers failed in the last attempt to stop this steam roller as the Yankees pounded out their fourth successive victory, thereby running their un precedented winning streak to an even dozen triumphs over the Na tional League in the combined cam paigns of 1927-28-32 There has never been anything like it in baseball history. The sta tisticians as well as the Cubs were dazed and shell-shocked after the last big bombardment; hi the ninth, had been delivered against the vet eran Burleigh Grimes. Another big crowd, estimated at close to 50.000. left silently and in awe of those mighty men from the big town after an afternoon of wild hut futile en couragement to the home forces. It was all over, for another year of battered spirits in the ranks of the National League, beaten back after enjoying the thrill of only one season at the top of the baseball roost. But the echoes lingered on of this last Yankee outburst, as uncon trollable as a herd of wild elephants on the loose Where Babe Ruth and Loti Gehrig had pounded the Cub ramparts to pieces the day before with a thrill ing exhibition of long range batting, their team mates rushed in to com plete the job of mopping up the be wildered Chicagoans. There was the wildest kind of uproar as Ruth, the great man himself, fanned twice with men on bases but the base hit ting bats of Earle Comas Jole Sew ell. Tony Laz-zeri and Bill Dickey did more than enough damage to off set the Babe's failures. Lazseri, recovering his batting eye for the first time in the senes, smashed out two home runs. Combs knocked another over the bleacher fence and crossed the plate four times altogether. These two, with Sewell and Dickey, each contributed three hits apiece to the grand total of 19. one short of the world series record, accumulated uthe Yan kees. Democratic Women Meet In Raleigh (CONTTNOSP FROM P.VGK ON*.( Bob Reynold*.’’ There was applause after that re mark by the former secretary of the navy, who is spending a few days in Raleigh taking time out from a campaign tour in the west in behalf of the Democratic presi dential nominee. "President Hoover promised the women in 1928 they need not have any fear for jobs for their hus bands,’’ Daniels said "Women have long memories and hold people re sponsible for what they say and | promise." Senator Bailey warned against “over confidence." declanng the strength of the Republican party must not be under estimated. To carry the state and nation, he said., Democrats must make " a prodigious1 tight and an intelligent fight.” "We must not put our hope for victory on pink teas, ballyhoo and cheap attacks on President Hoover.” Bailey said. “This is a campaign of principle, not one of celebration.” It was Reynolds who said, "Wom en of the country are going to see that the house is cleaned on No vember 8.” “They are going to see that there! is fair play between the classes and the masses,” he added. He named the women leaders, more than 100 !of whom attended the meeting, as I "ladies of democracy." Ehringhaus declared women In i politics were not "a decoration, but 'a useful and needful necessity.” Mrs; Palmer Jerman, national ' Democratic committeewoman, Mrs : O'Berrv and Wallace Wtnborne, [state Democratic chairman, also | made short talks. In the afternoon the women were guests of Mrs. Gardner, wife of the governor, at a tea at the executive mansion. Penny Column FOR RENT 7-Room house, in A-l condi tion: one block of the square.

Mrs. Thacker declared the effort of some persons to remove married women from industry was only the beginning of an attempt to elimi nate all women from the business and professional world "Women have fought valiantly for the right of suffrage, but to vote in a country where you had no right to work would be rather a sorry travesty upon freedom " she said. "Of the million married women gainfully employed in this country at the present time. 95 per cent are working because of economic neces Ity and are turning over all their earnings to the family," she con tinued. Membership in the National As sociation of Working Women is limited to working women of ma ture age It was said that the or ganization is not interested in the young girl "who is wwking as a stopgap between school and mar riage ."

With oyer 150. 000 people assembling in one plat for a good time it is considered un usual that there were no serious - mishaps and that practically all ar rests were for more or less pet v. offenses.

Special attractions which drew many were the A. K. C. dog) show, the dairy judging contest and the cattle show.
