Greb was quoted as saying the decision was "framed against him." Today Tex Rickard, promoter, said Greb had cooled off and, while not content with the decision, did not question the honesty of the officials who ruled he lost. CLAIM HOSPITAL REFUSED TO AID A verdict that he was injured when his car was overturned on a street in Santa Ana, Dec. 5, was returned late yesterday, following an inquest at Backs, Terry & Campbell parlors over Delbert Wolfe, who died Sunday at the local sanitarium.

DON'T FAIL TO HE will be here ever Orange County's Largest Gift BASEBALL JUDGE FACING CONTEST By DAVIS J. WALSH (I. N. S. Sports Editor) CHICAGO, Dec. 12.—In spite of the unity and the panegyric that the National League was responsible for, Judge Landis faced a bitter controversy today when the joint meeting of the two major leagues was convened. Seven of the eight American League club owners were lined up behind the expansive figure of Ban Johnson, president, who had an anti-Landis complex and didn't care who knew it. Just on general principles, Johnson opposed the Landis program in toto. It might have been that the good judge desired nothing beyond the good of good old baseball but politics was something else again. The Johnson-Landis business was due for an airing regardless. The main point of the controversy, if it developed, was over the question of control of umpires. The time was when the merest word of the worthy Johnson was reflected in news dispatches throughout the country but that time is not now. The good judge now occupies that enviable position and Johnson would have it otherwise. The National League passed up the buck yesterday afternoon when it endorsed the worthy Landis. The Heydler outfit took considerable wind out of the American League sails when this thing happened. The draft thing is going to get plenty of airing today. Aside from the joint meeting of the two major league, there are several of the little fellows who will meet. They are for and against the draft. A. H. S.

William Gibbs McAdoo, former secretary of the treasury, and prominently mentioned as a Democratic candidate for president, in an address before a joint lunchon of the men's and women's democratic club of Los Angeles declared, "what the nation wants today is action and not a policy of procrastination." The some 400 Democrats who attended the luncheon had hoped Mr. McAdoo would announce or refer to his possible candidacy for the presidency but his address was general and he made no reference to it. "The most affirmative part of the president's message is the recommendation of tax reduction," Mr. McAdoo declared. "The whole country favors tax reduction. The Democratic party has stood for it since the signing of the armistice, and should cooperate, without regard to partisan consideration, in any honest effort to ease the tax burdens. This effort should be directed not alone to a reduction in the gross sum of taxation but no equitable distribution of the burden. The president's endorsement of the proposal to put a lighter tax on earned incomes, namely those produced by the sweat of the brow and toll of the brain, than upon unearned incomes, ones from investments, is commendable." Mr. McAdoo claimed that as secretary of the treasury in 1918 this proposition was first made and an amendment to the revenue bill was offered by Senator Harris of Georgia. However, it was defeated, he explained, by a vote of 36 Republicans against 21 Democrats on the ground, as stated by Senator Penrose, then chairman of the finance committee of the senate, that the opinion of the committee was that such a provision was "impossible of administration."

Actual field borings will be made to a depth of eight feet or more to see how deep the moisture is. Emphasis will be laid on the relation of winter irrigation to crop production. Light yields this fall are generally correlated with inadequate water supply last winter. Field meetings open to the public are scheduled: Fullerton, Thursday, Dec. 13th, 2 p.m. Place of W. L.
