Doomed by Rider,

New York Congressman and
Representative La Gllardia
TO Fight, but Agricult-
urists Are in Control
Neso York Tribune
HGsi,tr 0ton Bureau


WASHINGTON, May 26.-The House
Agricultural Committee to-day invited
protracted debate by the Senate on the
Agricultural Appropriation bill by ia
vorably reporting as one of its pro-
visions rider repeating the daylight
savings act.
The repeater will not get through
the Senate without q stiff fight" said
Senator Calder, of New York, original
sponsor of the daylight saving plan.
If the House committee wishes quick
action on the appropriation bill it
should have reported the daylight saw
ing repeater as separate measure
AS it is, the whole bill, with its i'm
portant appropriations, must be held
up until this question is fully debated" !"
Representative La Guardia, of New
York, gave notice that he would make
point of order against the rider when
the bill is called up in the House. He
said, however, that the Agricultural
Committee was prepared to appeal to
the Rules Committee for special rule
making the rider in order. He crti-
cised the committee for refusing to
grant hearings on the repeater
The Agricultural bill, as reported to-
day, carries total appropriations of
$32 2,62S,322 an increase of S955 300 over
the total of the bill passed by the
House during the last Congress, but
held up in the Senate by the flibuster

Added Starter
IriumphsOver
CLASSY Field
Aided to Victory
by kennedy's Clever Ride:
Hollister Wins Handicap
By w. ]. Macbeth

The Brook, J. Z. Griffiths grand lit
tie timber-topper, proved himself just
about the most reliable cross country
horse racing in the East when he an
nexed the international Steeplechase
Handicap, $1,000 added, at about two
miles, at the Belmont Park track YES
tcrday afternoon.
The Brook, cleverly ridden by Jockey
n. Kennedy, was an added starter that
had to prove himself in a formidable
field Of jumpers. He is a little thor
oughbred, this gelded son of Trout
beck, and was asked to concede lot of
weight to some pretty fair ckasers.
Grlffith's brown gelding sEoudered the
heavy impost of 167 pounds, twenty
nine pounds more than Babcock and
twenty five more than Tetan, which he
beat for the big money in game
drive from the last hurdle home
The International Steeplechase de-
veloped one of the best races of the
kind and one of the most exciting fin
lshes seen in q long time. Vincent
Powers, with Tetan, of the Greentree
Stable, set the early pace. and stiff
one, 70 kill off the lightweights. Ken
nedy. however, disregarded the early
pace. He rated his mount we'll within
himself, trailing the first time round
and picking the shortest possible
route.
Leader Tetan Challenged
Babcock, Mrs Walter NJ. Jeffordss
black gelding, laid off the early pace,
but half way round the second time
moved up and challenged Tetan. 1t
was just about this time that Kennedy
made his move with The Brook. After
racing up into third position Kennedy
held the position safely, and let Bah
cock and Tetan fight themselves to
death
Half a-mile from home it looked as
if Babcock might win, for he drew
away from Tetan. Babcock raced most
resolutly until after he had cleared
the last fence. Then he tired and
dropped out of it. 1t was after the
turn into the final stretch that Ken
nedy went to work on the favorite,
The Brook. He had almost collared
Tetan at the last jump. Once landed
for the brush through the turf fiat
The Brook showed why he should
have been favorite
He OUTRAGED and outgamed Tetan in
hard drive and was going away at
the end. Babcock, which fenced we'll
and which was the best of the others,
was very tired horse when it was
all over.

Motors and Motorists

Motorists who are planning to spend
the last few days OF this week on tour
ing trips, because of the three-day
holiday, have wide range of journeys
open to them. There are many routes
that offer themselves for attractive
jaunts.
For instance, there is round trip
to Delaware Water Gap, going through
Hackensack and Paterson to New
foundland and Franklin Furnace.
The return suggested is by way of
Pequest to Hackettstown and then over
the Schooley Mountain to Chester and
Springfield. The line runs through
Newark to New York.
To the Berkshires as far as Lenox
or Pittstield is another fine trip,
through some of the best scenery there
is to be found in the East. Another
road is to follow through the Connect
cut Valley to Springfield, Mass, then
across to Greenfield and over the Mo-
hawk Trail-a wonderful ride, especial
ly approaching it from the Greenfield
side-to North Adams and then back
by way of the reservoir country of
Westchester into New York.
Through the Connecticut and Litch-
field Hills to Waterbury is another at
tractive New England trip that offers.
Still another suggestion is to go by
way of Providence out along to Cape
Cod and to drive as far as Woods
Hole, returning by an alternate road
until Providence is reached again.
1t would be an attractive and pleas
ant trip to go up the west side of the
Hudson River through the Ashokan
dam country as far as Cooperstown,
which makes a splendid objective for
the journey.
Motorist readers Of The Tribune who
are now considering trips for the week
end are invited to write in for details,
which, as far as possible, will be fur
nished in time. Write to the Automo-
bile Editor.
