UNITED STATES<br />
AMERICA ADTIHED TO BE VERT<br />
( IRCCwSPECT DEALING WITH<br />
LATIN-AMERICANS.<br />
(By Associated Press.) •<br />
MONTEVIDEO. March 1—The Unit<br />
ad States should not only be right in | ^ud<br />
In conduct toward South and Central<br />
American republics but should seem<br />
to be right. Dr. Juan A. Buero, For-<br />
•ign Minister of Uruguay, told North<br />
American correspondents in an inter-<br />
view the other day.<br />
Dr. Boero made<br />
asked by the<br />
the prejudice reported to<br />
atthft iaJSouth America against the<br />
United States because of actions taken<br />
at various times reflating the<br />
affairs mi some of the less stable republics<br />
in the tropic zone.<br />
'Uruguay," he replied, "thoroughly<br />
understands the United States and<br />
the reasons for its actions. However."<br />
some of the nations that have had<br />
difficulties with the United States<br />
may not understand the North American<br />
position. Furthermore, there are<br />
n number of agitators throughout<br />
South America willing to play upon<br />
the minds of the people to influence<br />
them against North America and to<br />
make them believe that the great<br />
northern republic is actuated by a<br />
spirit of aggression.<br />
'Therefore permit me to suggest in<br />
the interest of American solidarity<br />
and universal good will among American<br />
republics that the United States<br />
Sot only be but seem to be right in its<br />
dealings with South and Central<br />
American republics. The facts and<br />
the appearances should coincide/'<br />
Discussing the League of Nations.<br />
Dr. Buero declared that without North<br />
America it could not be a success. It<br />
could not do without the physical,<br />
>ral and financial support of that<br />
ttion, he said. ,<br />
.Dr. Buero waa asked whether he<br />
iieved that a Pan American League<br />
the lines proposed by President<br />
im of Uruguay was incompatible<br />
with the League of Nations.<br />
"Moat certainly I do not." he replied.<br />
"The Americas, if they wish<br />
to retain the world influence that is<br />
coming to them must have an American<br />
solidarity. Before a meeting of<br />
the League at Geneva the Americas<br />
should hold a meeting of their own to<br />
determine the policies that the Americas<br />
desire and by presenting a solid<br />
front make their, influence felt much<br />
more powerfully.<br />
"There is,% however," continued the<br />
Foreign Minister, "one great drawback<br />
to this much desired solidarity<br />

for the month at February, the shortest<br />
month in the year, aggregated $74,-<br />

month of January. This is considered<br />
a fairly good start for the new<br />
year and is taken as an indication of<br />
what -might he safely expected in the<br />
way of material improvement for the<br />
present year. It was stated in a news<br />
item in the Bulletin a day or so ago<br />
that carpenters and contractors were<br />
of the opinion that the volume of<br />
baikjing was steadily on the increase<br />
and that many large enterprises would<br />
be ready to handle in the near future.<br />
It is believed that the volume of building<br />
in Brownwood will be much larger<br />
in March than it was in February and<br />
there is every reason to believo that<br />
every month- will bring new enterprises<br />
in the building line. In anticipation<br />
of tiie increase of business<br />
along these lines the various lumber<br />
yards in Brownwood are increasing<br />
their stocks to meet the general demand.<br />

Cornerstone of<br />
New Church to<br />
Be Laid March 13<br />
Rev. J. \V. Johnson, pastor of the<br />
North Brownwood Methodist church<br />
announn d today that the cornerstone<br />
of the new church building will be<br />
laid on the afternoon of Sunday<br />
March 13th, with Rev. Frank E. Singleton<br />
of the FVst Methodist church<br />
as the principal speaker. It is expected<br />
that unless inclement weather develops<br />
during the coming two weeks<br />
the new building will be sufficiently<br />
advanced at that time to ptrmit the<br />
laying of the stone with due ceremony.<br />
A contract for the huilding has been<br />
let, and construction work is to be<br />
pushed as rapidly as possible. The<br />
new building will be a neat frame<br />
structure t,f ample proportions to<br />
take care of the rapidly growing congregation<br />
for several years to come<br />

By Jack Veiock,<br />
International News Sporting Editor<br />
NEW YORK. March 1.—Anyone who<br />
believes the road to pitching fame is<br />
paved with roses may find proof to<br />
the contrary in the record of Stanley<br />
Coveleskie.<br />
The star of the 1920 world's si Ties<br />
found the highway that leads to baseball's<br />
hall of fame steep and rocky.<br />
He had to work harder than the average<br />
pitcher because he is a disciple<br />
of the spitball. and as such suffered<br />
from wildness which he was<br />
unable to remedy for a good many<br />
seasons.<br />
Today the star of the Cleveland Indians<br />
stands out as one of the most<br />
sensational pitchers baseball has<br />
known, and enjoys the distinction of<br />
being one of a select quartet of twirlers<br />
who have won three games and<br />
lost none in a single world's series.<br />
In addition to this fine record Coveleskie<br />
ranks as one of the greatest<br />
pitchers of the age, and, thanks to a<br />
sane ruling made by the major league<br />
rules committee, after the spitter was<br />
put under the ban, "Covey" will be<br />
enabled to continue in the use of his<br />
pet delivery until he comes to the end<br />
of his trail as a big league star.<br />
During the 1920 campaign Coveleskie<br />
and Jim Bagby were the men who<br />
shouldered the burden of pitching Tris<br />
Speaker's Indians to their first American<br />
League pennant. On the season's<br />
work Bagby finished with a better<br />
record for games won, but in spite of<br />
this fact it was Coveleskie who stepped<br />
into the breach when victories<br />
were most needed and turned back<br />
the opposition. It was Coveleskie's<br />
consistent pitching in crucial series<br />
and his fine work in the world's reries<br />
that landed the Indians their world's<br />
championship.<br />
Back With Indian*.<br />
"Covey" will be back in the harness<br />
witht he Indians again this year and<br />
Cleveland fans are hoping that his<br />
good right arm will not fail, and that<br />
his control of the spitter will be Just<br />
as effective as it was last year. Last<br />
season the world's series star took<br />
part in 41 games. Out of this number<br />
he turned in the fine toal of 24 victories<br />
against 14 defeats for a pitching<br />
percentage of .632. He faced 1,138<br />
batsmen and gave up 2.48 earned runs<br />
per nine innings.<br />
Opposing batsmen got 65 bases on<br />
balls off of him and base runners<br />
managed to steal 14 bases while he<br />
officiated in the bex^He won the<br />
strike-out title for the season by fanning<br />
133 batters, and four hit batsmen,<br />
coupled with one lone wild pitch all<br />
season, offer mute evidence to the<br />
manner in which he has learned to<br />
control the moist delivery.<br />
What will Coveleskie do this year?<br />
Indications are that with the spitter<br />
given a new lease on life and the<br />
same fine team that won the world's<br />
title behind him, he may continue on<br />
his winning way. He may even turn<br />
in more victories for the tribe than<br />
he did last year, and if the Speakerit<br />
es manage to battle their way into<br />
another world's series, tfc jrjty nave<br />
another chance to show the baseball<br />
world what a hard-working "fogballisf*<br />
can do.<br />
Started in 1908.<br />
It was hack in 1908 that "Covey"<br />
first broke into the box scores as a<br />
professional player, and it took a hip<br />
part of his twelve years to lanr! him<br />
in the select class of pitchers who<br />
win rank among the greatest the game<br />
has produced. He got his start with<br />
Shamokin, Pa., in the Atlantic League,<br />
an independent organization and from<br />
there went to Lancaster in the Tri-<br />
; State League.<br />
In 1912 he was purchased by the<br />
Philadelphia Athletics. As a member<br />
of the Mackmen Coveleskie was anything<br />
but a success, and Connie Mack<br />
sent him to Spokane, of the Northwestern<br />
League, because the penentage<br />
of earned runs made off his delivery<br />
In games pitched for the "A's"<br />
was so great that Connie evidently<br />
figured him dead weight on the payroll.<br />
In 1915 Portland purchased<br />
"Covey" from Spokane and the following<br />
year he came back to the<br />
American League as a member of the<br />
Indians, where he has been ever since.<br />
One of his best years up to 1920<br />
was the season of 1919 when he won<br />
24 games and lost but 11 for the Indians,<br />
appearing in 43 pastimes.<br />
Mainstay in Series.<br />
"Covey's" work in the recent world's<br />
series was altogether brilliant. He<br />
started the first game for the Indians<br />
in Brooklyn and turned in a 3 to 1<br />
victory, pitching against Marquard,<br />
Mamaux and Cadore. He came back<br />
in the fourth game against the Fame<br />
pitchers, with Jeff Pfeffer to beat,<br />
and the Indians romped away with<br />
the victory, 5 to 1. In the seventh<br />
game he pitched shutout ball, down-<br />

STARR'S DEATH C0N6EUDES<br />
25 YEARS OF MOST DARING<br />
OUTLAWRY IN SOUTHWEST.<br />
(By Associated Press.)<br />
OKLAHOMA CITY, March 1 —<br />
Henry Starr, who died at Harrison<br />
Ark, from a bullet wound received<br />
while attempting to rob a bank, wa3<br />
known for a quarter of a century<br />
throughout the Southwest as one of<br />
the most fearless outlaws of the wild<br />
days that preceded .statehood in Ok-<br />
'ahoma.<br />
Starr was born fifty years ago in<br />
Foit CJihson, Okla. His father was a<br />
respectable full blood Cherokee ludan.<br />
His first robbery was committed<br />
in 1SJ2 when he held up an express<br />
omce at Nowata, Oicla. He was<br />
arrested, jumped his bond and killed<br />
Floyd Wilson, u deputy United States<br />
marshal, who attempted to arrest<br />
him.<br />
His first bank robbery occurred in<br />
18f)3 when he held up thoCaney, Kartsat,<br />
Valley National Bank and secured<br />
$4,000. Scores of outlaws<br />
flocked to his standard following this<br />
bo'd stroke and he became the recosnized<br />
leader cf the band.<br />
Following a series of crimes in the<br />
lnaian Territory he was arrested by<br />
ing and later returned to Oklahoma<br />
In 1915 be held up a bank at Stroud<br />
Okla., and was later captured ana<br />
sentenced to the Oklahoma penitentiary-<br />
Again his good conduct gave him<br />
liberty when he was paroled in March<br />
1919. Since then he has ostensibly<br />
engaged in reai estate and motion<br />
picture work.<br />

CANAN CITY, Co., March 1.—Michael<br />
R. Geraghty ha& deserted lite<br />
fruit farm, near here, for the time<br />
being, to hobnob again with the habitues<br />
of legislative halls. Geraghty<br />
has accepted an appointment as a<br />
"bill clerk" in the Colorado Senate<br />
and will occupy himself under the<br />
golden dome of the State Capitol in<br />

feels that a permanent feature<br />
will soon be esaUished and the shallow<br />
fields of Brown county come ii to<br />
their own, from an industrial :md<br />
financial pcint of view. Another interesting<br />
feature is that if the plans now<br />
outlined, prove to be a success it will<br />
mean that a laree number of i»ewr<br />
shallow wells will be put down in the<br />
near future and the shallow field de- tenger for President Bucharan I waij<br />

with the exception that each member<br />
of the committee will draw the princely<br />
3alary of just one dollar per annum.<br />
The committee is composed of 'Buchanan was an aristocrat." ht<br />
