White House physician. The two left

since last September. at Sea Girt, \. j..
and was the first outdoor exercise he
has had since he entered the White

The President is an honorary member
Of the Chevy Chase and Columbia Coun-
try clubs, both of which have excellent
golf courses. but he chose the Washing
ton club course. where the number OF
players going the rounds was probably
not so numerous as on the other courses.
The President plays a pretty good game
of golf. although he is not as expert as
was former President Taft.
The President will do little work today,
intending to enjoy his Saturday holiday
as much as possible. This afternoon
his program included the base ball game
at American League Park and probably a

II is pointed out by the committee that
the published financial reports of the de-

of the service on dissimilar, and there
fore incompatible bases Revenues of the
postal service are almost entirely COL
iected in cash. and consequently relate
properly to the fiscal year for which
the report is made. But. the committee
finds, it has been the practice to COM
pare these only with payments actually
made during the fiscal year. regardless of

to be paid until succeeding wears
