MAY DELAY ARMY
AND NAVY BILLS
Leaders in CONGRESS Want
New Pay Scales Placed
in Measures.

The intention of congressional
leaders to delay passage of the an
nual Army and Navy. appropriation
bills until the new schedules for the
military services, recently worked
out by q joint congressional COM
mission, are enacted into law, was
made known today by Representative
Monden Of Wyoming, House repub-
lican leader, and Senator Wadsworth
of New York, in charge of the Army
and Navy bills in the Senate.
The new pay basis. Mr.. Wadsworth
estimated, would result In a saving
of more than $5,900,000 in the next
fiscal year on an Army of 10000, and
in a corresponding saving in the Navy
pay appropriations.
Unless the pay bill. now awaiting
action in each house, is passed. both
Army and Navy bills, which are in
the hands of Senate committee, would
have to be written on the basis of
the 1908 pay, because of the expira-
ton of the wartime pay sched-
ules. The 1908 basis is regarded by
most of the members interested in
the subject as inequitable, and, al
though the new rate would result in
saving, it is calculated to result in
increases. where determinations are
alleged to have existed heretofore.

Rain Improves Course
as Record Number of
Golfers Beqin Contest

With only eighty players scheduled
to qualify in five sixteens out OF a
field of more than 1S0 starters, one
OF the largest aggregations Of golfers
that ever played in qualifying
round in a golf event near Washing
ton, the annual spring invitation
tournament of the Washington Gol4
and Country Club got under way TOD
day. The event will conclude Satur7
day afternoon with the final round in
all sixteens and consolation events.
Chairman Burr of the golf COM
mittee, late yesterday decided to add
another sixteen to the four sixteens
for which provision had previously
been made, SO that instead of sixty
four players qualifying, eighty will
remain for the match play rounds
to begin tomorrow morning.
Eight additional entries received
yesterday brought the total entry
list to more than 1S0. and it was
estimated that score of ninety-three
or better would be required to make
the last sixteen. The clubhouse
sharks had it figured out that to make
the first sixteen the player must break
eighty in the qualifying round.
Conditions early today appeared ia
rains of yesterday and last night
have put the course in fine condition,
slowing down the greens and fair
ways, which, before the rain were
far too fast for good golf. The rain
today did not hurt the course.
The entry list includes practically
every player of note about Washing
ton, with the District champion. Guy
NJ Standifer; A. r. Mackenzie. last
years winner; Gerald NJ. Russell of
Walton Heath, England; Allan Lard
and Sam Dalzell of Chevy Chase. and
the leading players of Bannockburn.
Many golfers from the Potomac Park
course have entered the event and
have been playing good practice
rounds over the course.
