ty a i, % TDW @, et LT, - oo ¥ Dinner Match Thursday— ‘The regular dinner match will be ‘held ‘this week on Thursday and it is thought likely that the dinner will be held on the same night. ‘However, you will ‘be in- formed of that jater. The pair- ings wil be published in this eol- umn tomorrow but Capt. Mesa says if Capt. Charlie Ketchum thinks his side is going to win, he’ bas another think coming, but Charlie remarked it was a good thing that that was so for he couldn't say the same thing about Cookie ‘because ‘he couldn’t say the first part. Sleepy Golfer Helps Win— The other morning Mr. Pious William Watkins got his old friend, Mt. Li Plummef, out of bed -and carried Jim out :to the golf -course, much against Mr. Plummer’s will but it was a lucky thing ‘for ‘Willie that he did on aceount of it was Li’s 42 which helped beat Cookie Mesa and Russell Kerr. However, Willie wants to know what anyone thinks he was doing most of the time because he had a couple of 42's himself. It was on the 5th hole where Mr. Plummer came through for the match. They were three down to start the‘ hole when Mr. Li knocks a drive down the left-hand side of the fairway for a distance of 180 yards and then ‘the next one he whopped over the second bunker for a 200- yard shot which barely missed the top of the hill. ‘Then the next one was a pitch to the-green using the old rolling wrist action and since he failed to sink the 30-foot putt he had a gimme eight-inch for a par five which put them three up, ete etc. Of course, LEADERSHIP Present trends at the capital indicate that the President is let- ting Congress and‘ business devel- op some form of leadership re- cession. Little effective leader- ship is expected, however, and eventually the Government will have to step in, although lending and not spending is to be the function of the Government from now on. HOMES The major effort for recovery will. probably center around home building on a large scale. Hous- ing experts have long reiterated the shortage of homes and the ef- fect normal housing construction would ‘have on unemployment and business generally. Not only is the housing plan expected to stimulate the building of homes by individuals but also the con- npeeey ‘ion of large housing projects large insurance companies and industrial cbncerns tga: PROPAGANDA Propaganda from Fascist states in South America is increasing and will speed up negotiations be- tween private and civic interests ‘nd the Government looking to- ‘ward the development of a plan to increase good-will for the Unit- ed States in the Seuthern Hemis- phere. The National Broadcast- ing Company is active in the South and Central American fields and is seeking new outlets. German, Italian and Japanese Propaganda is considered a direct challenge to American influence in Latin-America and in at least one case the campaign took the form of assaults on the United States Government LAY-OFFS Aubrey Williams, acting heed Of the WPA, estimates that work relief rolls will reach a peak of 2,500,000 in March and taper off in the Spring when private em- ployment usually increases. That late numbers of workers lost their jobs in the last sixty days of 1937 ecognized and the A F. of L. reports the “rate of lay- offs was al equal to the ‘worst depression winter”. In fact, between September and the be- Binning of 1938, its estimate is that 1,700,000 workers became idle RESOLUTIONS Resolutions proposing a disarm- ament conference. to be called by the President will probably create @iscussion in both houses and the ost WASHINGTON ——By GRAVY——_ while this may have’ not happen- ed Mr. Plummer -will ‘tell you’ that it is*so. ‘Those Below ‘70 Boys— Mr. -Tkey Parks had a 78 to celebrate and Mr. George Dodge amid Mr. Joe Lopez*had 78 each also to keep Mr. Ikey from -get- ting too important but a good time -was had -by-all on account of the celebration and also the game. Who Did You Say Won?— Now, in the ease of Doc Willie Kemp and Mr. Johnny Jumpin Kirschenbaum against Mr. Char- lie Salas and Mr. Melvin Russell, the best men won the match but it all depends on how you look at it. For instance, Doc Penababe claims that the match ended two up in their favor (according to the seore ecard) but after you look over the card for a while you find that it should be two up for Melvin and Charlie. It seems that all four played like real champions on the first round with 41 for Charlie, 42 for Kirsch and 43 each for Willie and Melvin, and an all-square mateh. But on the back nine it was all even un- til the last hole when Charlie got a par‘four while the rest got fives. Newspaperman Drops Mashie Shot On Bald ‘Head A hole-in-one contest, as a side- show of the Los Angeles open, in- cluded a “charmed circle” four feet in diameter. Jimmy Thom- son hit 139 balls before he got one inside the circle. Ned Cronin, Los Angeles newspaperman, try- ing the hole-in-one stunt, dropped a mashie shot kerplunk on an in- nocent bystander’s scalp. eecesen: NOTES Ludlow ‘proposal will be revived if certain congressmen have their way. The conference resolution: is not expected to pass in view of the general feeling that it would seriously embarass the Adminis- tration without accomplishing anything for international peace. AMENDMENTS Senator Norris of Nebraska will press considération of his propos- ed amendment to ‘simplify the adoption of amendments to the Constitution. ‘He’would have the States vote on a ‘proposal and change the proportion of states necessaty ‘for ‘adoption to two- thirds instead of the present thre- fourths. RETIREMENT Army officers, up to the rank of colonel, were ordered in Janu- ary to undergo physical examina- tions and it is expected that more than two hundred of them will be voluritarily retired because of physical disabilities. The object of the drive is to eliminate aged and infirm officers in favor of younger men. Last month. as a result of the examinations, hos- pitals were called upon to correct a great many “defects” among of- ficer personnel. Many of them will be retired on account of high bloed pressure, false teeth, hernia, chronic throat troubles and kin- dred ills.» COST OF LIVING The cost of living for families of wage earners and lower salar- ied workers in larger cities de- clined during the last quarter of 1937. Based on the 1923-25 aver- age, the index was 845 as com- pared with 85.0 in September “GRANDS” Somebody seems to have money in the United States because the ‘Treasury Department reports that the number of $1,000 bills in cir- culation last year increased by $23,000,000. As the year ended there were 288.000 “grary out— one for every 450 persons in the country.

BEFORE NOON Fire apparatus was, shortly be- fore noon, summoned to a -grass fire at the corner of United and Duval streets, but by the time the engines. arrived the flames had spread to a building in the vicinity. Fortunately the arrival of the apparatus was timely and the fire was extinguished before there was any great damage done. Chief Baker said the loss amount- ed to about “$15 or $20”. . .

He declared that the nay¥ is not intended for pro- tection of American shores “but for aggressive action in all parts of the world”. Senater Hiram Johnson of ‘Cal ifornia, who had expressed fears that certain commitments had been made by this country with foreign powers, only to consider} that Secretary Hull’s denial was a satisfactory answer, returned to the issue by expressing a fear that the Secretary of State, as well as/ he, had been taken for “a ride” with “neither of us knowing ex-} actly what was in the offing or! what had been agreed upon”.| Senator Johnson explained that; he stood “for a good navy, @ big} navy and the navy bills” now! pending but not for use in con- nection with any other country.!

He urged the rejection of any alliance or “parallel action” with Great’ Britain, declared his favor of peace at any price if it involves a foreign war, that the United States got into the World War through propaganda and that his organization had promot-! ed opposition to some members of Congress, includiag Representa- | tive Vison, of Georgia. : a Mr. Libby was questioned as to the expenses of his organization and the source of its income. He stated that the cost of the Council was $160,000 in 1937 and that a campaign to raise a million dol- lars through the sale of peace bonds was financed by Mrs. Anne Hubbard Davis, of Washington. who supplied $69,000. Less than $50,000 of “peace bonds” were sold, however. Mr. Libby also ridiculed the idea that Germany and Italy might invade South America and that any “concert- ed effort” in the Far East con- tains “far more real and immedi- ate” dangers than “these imagin- ed conditions”.
