United Press Staff Correspondent. ° CHICAGO, Jat. 9.—Stressing the need for uncompromising amateur- ism In golf and advocating a closer autance with foreign golf clubs, William C. Fownes tonight suc- ceedes Wynant D. Vandertool as pres‘dent of the United States Golf Association, The new president, an officer of the Orkmont Country club of Pitts. burgh. was unyielding in his stand tor strict amateurism during his omming address. “The most important duty of this association,” he sald, "is to safe- guard the amateur spirit of the game. Amateur golf today is freer from ques:fonable practices than any >f the other major sports, and it will be the unswerving policy of this association to maintain it that way. “To this end we appeal to those whose business depends upon su! plying the needs of golfers, not tc seek advertisement or advantage by coupling the names of amateur golf. e: with thel. goods.” In discussing foreig. relation, Fownes advocated the strictest co- oreration between English and Amcrican clubs {n arranging tourna- nents so that the leading golfc:s of -ach country might be able to en. ter them.

The best known German dollar bond is*the 7 per cent issue offered in October, 1924, and due in 1949, This is in a class by itself, apart from all other German obligations. In the first place the loan was orig- inally made for the purpose of car- rying into effect the Dawes plan and bonds in currencies of Great Britain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Holland, Belgium, Sweden and Germany were issued as well as the portion alloted to the United States. In other words it was a real in- ternational loan. In the second place the security comes ahead of Ger- man reparations payments in this respect differing from the numer- ous German state and municipal of- ferings of the last few months. The German 7s come ahead of every other obligation of the German gov- ernment whatsoever and they. have been described as in effect a “first mortgage on all Germany.” The market has been responsive to this distinction in that the price has ad. anced from 92, at which the bonds were first offéred, ten points or more to above par. A sinking fund amounting to $4,620,000 a year is payable month ufficient to re- tire one twenty-fifth of the Amert can issue at 105, bonds to be bought in the open market if {lable at or below that price and if not s0 obtainable to be redeemed by lot at 105. The effect of this provision would natura’ be to prevent the advance of the bonds much above ‘105. Just about the time the German Js were first offered to the Ameri- can investing public a French 7 per cent loan was marketed with the offering price two points above that put upon the German tfssue. But while the German 7s haye teen advanced the French 7s almost as steadily declined forming a striking HOWARD HEADS TANDE COUNCIL Charles H, Howard was elected president of ‘he Casper Trades and Labor Assembly for 1926 at a meet- ing Friday evening in Union Labor hall.

Investment contrast. More recently German citles haye come into the American market to meet their capital re- quirements offering bonds in be- wildering variety. It 1s too early to appraise the investment status of these, one of the difficulties being the problem of obtaining ‘the for- eign exchange necessary to make payments on account of principal and interest. This 1s too technical a subject to be gone Into here.
