By the Associated Press. ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, July 8.— H. Densmore Shute, 28-year-old Amer- ican professional from Philadelphia, to- day captured the British Open Golf Championship, beating his countryman, Craig Wood of Deal, N. J., in an all- America 36-hole play-off. Shute led from the first hole to the last and defeated Wood by five strokes with a fine exhibition of all-around shot-making. The new champion shot the double round in 75—74—149, only three strokes over par for the 36 holes. Wood's score was 78—76—154. Tied In Exciting Finish. Wood and Shute finished the regu- lation 72 holes yesterday tied at 292 after one of the most exciting finishes in the history of the tournament. Shute succeeds to the title won last year by another American, Gene Sara- zen, who failed by only cne stroke to tie the leaders. This is the tenth suce cessive year the classic trophy of British golf has gone to a representative of the United States Shute was much too consistent with his irons and much too steady around the greens for Wood, who dropped four strokes at the outset with sixes on the first two holes and never was able to overcome that handicap. He was never closer than two strokes behind and trailed* by three at the end of the morning round. Wood three-putted three greens on the outgoing nine of the afternoon. This left him six shots behird and a hopeless prospect. His par golf over the last nine only trimmed one shot from Shute’s margin. Steady Play All Week. Shute, the one-time West Virginia amateur star, son of a golf professional and long prominent in Ohio before shifting his headquarters to Phila delphia’s suburbs, gained his first ®ational championship honors after the steadiest kind of play all week. He didn't have much to spare in the qualifying rounds with a total of 156, only two shots inside the limit, but as soon as the scores began to count he played par to a standstill. “Denny” shot four successive rounds over the “old” course in 73, even par, and he was only three strokes over perfect | figures for two more rounds today under the severest pressure. The big gallery gave him a tre- mendous ovation. He waved his cap as Mrs. Shute ran over to embrace and kiss the new champion. One of the first to shake his hand was old (Continued on Page 3, Column 8.) | ATLORTON PRISON; {men were relieved at 9 o'clock this QUET RESTORED GUARDSREDLEED Night Peaceful Except for Antics of 108 Rebels in Solitary. PRISONERS TOMORROW Roosevelt Asked for Permission to Fill Vacancy Created by Tawse's Resignation. Lorton ro! atory started its way back to normal this morning. The night was peaceful except for the antics of the 108 irreccncilables singled out for solitary confinement as ringleaders of the recent disturbances. They tore up blankets and a mattress in the same spirit that led them to spoil their fellows’ fun by smashing up the in- struments of the prison band yes- terday. But the 108 had becn reduced to 106 today, when officials were satisfied two of the men who had been cor- ralled had nothing to do with the in- stitution’s previous troubles. The in- mates working in the laundry and the garage also were allowed to go back to work. In the rest of the shops work will not be resumed immediately. It will probably start again Monday morning. 22 Policemen Now on Duty. ‘The police guard at the reformatory was reduced from 80 to 22. The 22 morning by a fresh squad. A police guard will be maintained until Capt Barnard s satisfied conditions are back | to normal. Saturday is normally a half-day rurl work at Lorton and Sunday is a day | off. The men not allowed to go to| work were confined in their dormitories. George S.

Prisoners are usually al- lowed one visit a month from reiatives. | The rule only applies to Lorton. and | not to the workhouse at Occoquan, | where conditions have never been ab- normal. Will Talk With Rebels. Capt. M. M. Barnard, who has been| put in sole charge of the instituticn | following the resignation of its super-, intendent, A. C. Tawse, said the men in “solitary” would probably be confined | over the week end, and that afterward he would talk to each man individuaily, and see whether each would agree to| abide by the institution's rules. He intimated that those who would not agree would be shipped away to some walled Federal institution. President Roosevelt today was asked by the District Commissioners to permit them to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Tawse. The Commissioners yesterday ac- cepted the resignation of Tawse after he had declared he would quit unless he were given complete control over the institution following the rebellion of some of the priconers last Saturday over the quality of food they were| served. ! The Commissioners said they would consult with the Civil Service Commis- sion concerning the appointment of a | new Lorton superintendent. It is un- | derstood the Commissioners have the | names of several in mind for the ap- pointment but the names have not been disclosed. ‘Under the Federal economy program a vacancy cannot be filled during the | present fiscal year without the approval of the President The men in solitary were given sand- wiches and water for lunch yesterday. For supper last night and breakfast this morning, however, they received the same food as served to the other prisoners, in reduced rations. Their focd is taken to them in trucks, as they are not allowed to go to the mess hall. Last night, owing to the excess of men_over cells, eight cells had two | occupants each The rest had one each. Confident that the crisis had passed, Capt Barnard retired early last night. His slumbers were interrupted once, but it was by a reporter from a colored newspaper, who wanted to ask ques- tions about racial discrimination at the | institution. Barnard said he would answer all of his questions later. Tawse also spent his night at his| home on the Lorton reservation, once | a hunting lodge of Lord Fairfax. He has been given a “reasonable time” in | which to gather up his effects and de- part. He, too, turned in early after telling reporters he would move to' ‘Washington and “live like a gentle- | man.” Orders were issued not to allow | him within the string of sentry posts placed around the institution proper. | He made no effort to go there, The trouble yesterday afternoon started just before the reformatory guards and District policemen began | preparations for transferring the “bad actors” from the barracks where they z | x NATIONALS BEAT had been segregated to the new cell building behind the stable in a distant portion of the grounds.

STATE JOB AGENTS CALLED 0 SET UP NATIONAL SERVICE Organization to Be Completed to Mobilize Workers Where They Are Needed. LIVING COST INCREASES AHEAD OF EMPLOYMENT Roesevelt and Johnson May Act to Curb Production Unless More Men Are Put to Work. The administration spread further today its multifold effort to put more men to work immediately at higher pay and thus attain the increased purchas- ing power necessary for real prosperity, The Labor Department called in offi- cials from 26 States to shape frame- work for the new co-operative employ- ment service. At the suggestion of Presi- dent Roosevelt the recovery adminis- tration sought means to curb the spurt of production, but at the same time to MATTERN PLANE ‘CRUSHED; " i o ' FLYER REPORTED UNHURT The State officials were from 26 commonwealths which already have employment agencies. Their work is to be co-ordinated through a Federal clearing house, so that if there is an unemployed bricklaver in one State fand a job for him in another he may be told about the job. This arrangement, called for by the recently enacted Wagner-Peyser law, is to assist in mobilizing workers for the public construction program. Living Costs Increase. At the same time President Roosevelt and Hugh S. Johnson. industrial ad- ministrator, were represented as con- cerned at the fact that production and living costs had increased more since | March than had pay and the rate of employment. They were advised that scme manu- facturers were taking advantege of present low costs to lay up stocks of goods for later sale at higher prices That would have bezn all rizit had it been done by the employment of more workers or had workers been given more money. But the President and Johnson were told that some producers simply were working their present employes over- time. To stimulate agreements by industries to limit hours and raise pay, Johnson yesterday warned that “if we can't come along here with increased pur- chasing power to support this higher production, I shudder to think what will happen.” While he was making that state- ment, the American Federation of Labor, in a monthly survey, reported that 1,200,000 unemployed had gone back to work from March to May, but that the workers’ pay had ris:n only 22 per cent, while food costs were go- ing up 3.3 per cent. Code Still Held Up. Both the President and Johnson sus- pect some manufacturers are work:ng overtime to fill up their shelves before the contemplated codes go into effe-t. Thus far hearings have besn held on one proposed agreement, that affecting the textile industry. It has not been formally submitted to Mr. Roosevelt by Johnson, but probably soon will be, and the acdministration’s hope is this will be first in a swift succession. Mr. Roosevelt has carefully studied charts showing steady increases im prices for farm products and manufac- tured gods and gains also in both pro- duction and employment. But the employment line has not climbed as rapidly as the production line. The President regards this as dis- tinctly unhealthy and as something re- quiring immediate attention. The Chief Executive is satisfied in- dustry will support the industrial recov- ery program and there will be a series of codes to control production, hours of work and to fix minimum wages agreed upon in the near future. The charts from 1922 to 1928 show production and employment near the During the boom year of 1929 the production line shot above the (Continued on Page 2, Column 3) ANTHONY HOPE, AUTHOR OF ROMANCES, IS DEAD Writer, Who Gained Fame With “Prisoner of Zenda" and Others, ‘Was British Enight.
