creased freight tariffs and the
mems demands for increased pay
are granted and the whole burden
placed on the freight traffic the
Interstate Commerce Commission
was told today by Clifford Thorne,
of Chicago, representing shippers.
Mr.. Thorne recommended that
the wage advances be added with
out further hearings to the costs
upon which the roads now base
their request for advanced freight
rates; that a five per cent increase
be made on the passenger rates
with the balance of freight traf-
fics to care for the present case,
and that any advance occasioned
by the wage decision be spread out
over the entire earnings of the
railroads from all sources.
Application of the entire advance
to freight rates, Mr.. Thorne said,
will mean an increase i'm the east
Vi Ou per cent, III llle West ~ pSi
cent and in the south 60 per cent.
IAN increase of one half per

Mr.. Thorne continued, would pro
duce sufficient revenues to take

If the wage advance is one billion

Several Indians Testify That

Until They Agreed to Tes-

Mexico City, June 29.-Several
Indians, examined with regard to
their previous testimony in the
case of William o. Jenkins, for
mer American consular agent at
Puebla. testified today that they
were suspended IN the air, struck
and threatened with death by
shooting until they agreed to tes-
tify against Jenkins, according to
Puebla dispatches to f. Universal
this evening. Jenkins was kid
mapped by the bandit Federico Cor
dova last fall and later was charg-
ed with completely in his own cap
ture.
The testimony is being heard be-
fore the third criminal court of
Puebla. lgnacio NasqueZ, former
secretary of the second criminal
court, declared court paper were
stolen TO damage the case against
jenkins and the judge was deposed
when he was about to free the
American, The bandit Cordova was
cross-eXamined for four hours to-
day, but his testimony was not dis
closed.
Interviewed in Mexico City to-
night on his arrival from Puebla,
Cordova said he had kidnapped
jenkins, but that the latter was
not an accomplice. The agents of
the CarranZa government, Cor
dova asserted, had made attempts
to induce him to testify that the
kidnapping was the result of
scheme between himself and Jenk-
ms, but he had declined to make
such statement. Any declara-
tons purporting to come from him
accusing jenkins of being impli-
Gated in his capture. Cordova as
serted, were pure fabrications.

Mendes Beaten
In Final Match
At Pinehurst
Weber Defeats Siwanov
Golfer by 6 and 4 for Title
and Presidents Trophy
From a Special Correspondent

P1NEHU RST, N. c., April 17.-Har-
old Weber, the veteran golfer of the
Inverness Club of Toledo, had an easy
time defeating Albert ]. Mendes, of
the Siwanoy club, in the final round
of the mid-April tournament here to-
day. The score Of the match was and
q, and with the championship Weber
also gets the presidents trophy. Weber
finished with rs, despite the fact he
had three poor holes.
The Inverness club golfer is not a
brilliant player, and he makes few
spectacular shots. But his long ex-
perienceN in the game has taught him a
steadiness of hand and eye few other
amateurs enjoy. He was big favorite
for the final match.
Francis Ouimet won, Weber was un-
fortunate in encountering the ultimate
winner in the lower brackets Many
felt he would have gone clean through
in the upper half to the semi-finals
and that he would then have given the
Bay Slater sitter opposition. AS it
was, despite several bad breaks, the
Toledo player plugged along gamely
and lost out by score of and 2.
In the match against Mendes to-day
however, Weber showed all of his old
time form. He was down the middle of
the fairway on nearly every drive. The
few he played into the rough did no
damage, for his recoveries, on the
whole, were excellent And his ap
proaches and puts were capital.
Mendes tried gamely to keep pace
with his opponent, but Weber shook
him off soon after the start, and in his
effort to get on even terms again Men
des had to take long chances. Conse-
suently he dropped further back. The ST.
wanoy player registered 40 going out;
nevertheless he was down at the
turn. Weber played two holes under
par going out.
The major consolidation trophy went
to W. T. Stall, of Brockton, who de-
feated c. L. Becker by and in the
first beaten eight.

Navy Department
Orders Athletics
For Every Middle

The latest order from the Navy De
partment is on the subject of sport.
Sport is now officially made a part of
navy life. Those who have rallied at
the professional spirit of our college
athletic system will hail these new
navy rules with delight.
The navy is going in not for the
development of the few, who are al
ready proficient, but for the great mas
of non-athletes. Play is ordered. 1t is
no longer privilege; it is a duty.
Statistics must be kept by ships and
stations showing how many officers and
men have participated in sports five
days week at least
Coaches are directed to be appointed
at each station and on each ship for
each OF the major sports, which are
baseball, football, boxing and wrestling,
basketball. crew gymnastics and track
team. There will be also coach for
minor athletics, which are tennis, golf
and swimming.
Every quarter ships and stations will
be allowed to draw equipment and
spend certain amount of money for
these sports. The money is generally
found in the profits of the canteens.
If not, the welfare fund of the Bureau
Of Navigation will provide it.
The system is the same which has
brought so much success to the Naval
Academy athletics. Compulsory ath-
letics for all resulted in the Naval
Academy teams beating forty-nine col
lege teams in various sports last

1t also is of interest that Dave Her

the team honors twice in succession

ond vice-president; Frank E. Aiken,
treasurer, and Herbert C. Smith, sec

The club is making it's course ready
for the tournament Of the Westcheste T
County Golf Association, to be held in
June. The most radical change has
been made on the tenth hole. The
tennis courts alongside the autom obile
drive leading to the clubhouse have
been removed and the tee placed 4 the
far corner of the tennis court, along
side the road. Instead Of being short

a full iron shot to blind green. The
hole is so we'll trapped that from this
new tee the Dunwoodie tenth promises
to be one Of the bets one-shot golf

ton but also of limited and con-
distance
If you hit too hard or hit too easy
you are generally penalized just as
much as if you wandered astray to
the right or left.
And so, having to make double use
of the club brings on most of the
trouble.
Consistent Faults
There are several common and con-
sistent faults in the use of an iron,
but probably the most common and
consistent of all is the attempt of
the wayfaring duffer to do the lifting
himself
He sees beyond a bunker, a trap, a
pond, ditch or some equally annoy
ing arrangement that must be carried.
He knows the ball must be get
members that the club is built precise
y for that purpose. In his eagerness
to get the ball up he lifts with the
hands, wrists and arms as the club
head reaches the ball.
The result is easy to foresee. The
club head catches the top of the ball
on its upward lift and a bad topped
shot is almost sure to follow. For the
ball to get up properly the club head
must be continued on through the
&, ball where, as it leaves the lofted sur
face Of the club, it is bound to rise into
the air.
If you will only watch the average
| player you will see this fault in iron
play consistently followed. The down
ward swing may start we'll enough, but
you will continually see this frantic
effort of the hands near the finish to
lift the ball into the air. Whereas,
unless played by master, any lifting
| process on the part of the hands and
wrists will have just the opposite
effect.
Professional Play
This trick of letting the hands go or
through without any lifting interpola-
ton is one of the first things a pro
/ learns.
His swing is usually compact; he
keeps we'll down to the blow and the
loft on the club face does the hosting
work. The ball is we'll on its way as
rule before the club head has ever
started upon it's upward arc at the
finish of the swing.
The club head Of an iron welded by
professional or by a first class anna
teur as rule stays along the ground
much longer than when operated by 8
poorer golfer, who finds it extremely
difficult to keep from following his
ambition to do his own lifting.
In Unison
Here is another queer. or perhaps
not SO queer, feature in connection
| with these few words about lifting
AS one lifts the hands on an iron
/ shot there is subtle tendency to lift
the head. but az one keeps the hands
| down the head is also very likely to
stay put.
The golfer who attempts to lift the
/ ball generally makes a thorough job of
it by lifting the head also, and the COM
binat!on is composed exclusively of
trouble and disaster.
Where the stroke is compact, where
the hands are held in their place and
the club head Is driven on through, the
head is almost sure TO be kept down.
1t is a fine thing for golfers IA
watch the iron play of men such as
Hagen and Evans and to attempt to
retain mental pictures Of their strokes
I Of the trmness and crspness that are
part Of their iron play, of the total
isck Of effor. to lift the ball with hands
or wrists. Constant observation of this
sort will ha . a subconscious tendency
