BILL MEHLHORN TOPS
 FIELD IN SECOND DAY
Equals Course Record To Lead Chick Evans And .sl {fna. Eddie Held In Western

CHICAGO, Sept Civilian Mehl. 2 horn of St. Louis by equalling the course record of 70 for the 0,614 yard course of the Calumet Country club, today managed to bar two amateurs from leading the field in the elimina. tion rounds of the western open golf championship his total of 76-70-146 be- ing one stroke better than that of Chick Evans, who shot par 72 today, and two { strokes ahead of the total returned by Eddie Held, St. Louis, who slipped on the first nine for forty and took 78.
 Mehlhorn in carrying first place to St. Louis set a record for the first nine of 34 in spite of six on the ninth hole, 562 yards where he pushed his second into a, trap. The St. Louis pro fessional got fodf holes in three's in the first nine and chalked up three birdies. He had a unique card for the second half playing everyone of the nine holes, ranging in length from 192 yards to 578 yards in four strokes. Held was able to carry third honors for the same city by virtue of his par 72 played yesterday. He had par 36 for both hines yesterday and for the sec ond nine today.
 Chick Evans appeared for time to have taken first place with his 147 and Mehlhorn gave promise of doing no better than tying the former national champions score when he fell far short of the. green in two on the 476 yard 18th. The St. Louisian, however, chip. ped eight feet past the cup and with the side hill and chances against him sank the tickelish putt to top the field.
 Evans ruined his chances of having an easy lead by taking forty feet sec. ond nine yesterday after he had gone out in n, one under par yesterday. He scored perfect 36 on the first nine today and started home with two four's and three three's, only. slip one over par on the long 18th hnd also on the fairly 16th spelling his chance for a 70.

WHAT BANKERS THINK
OF THE LABOR BANKS

with the advent of the labor bank
three years ago. there was wide
spread speculation as to what labor
turning capitalist would mean.
BY bold calculations the most i'm
aginative pictured a coup detat in
finance wrought by the mobilization
OF labor's savings and strategic In
vestments in the key industries.
Prophecies OF disaster came from the
quarters OF the other extremists.
Taking the middle ground was the
great group OF conservative bankers
who saw the bank as link-rather
than wedge-between capital and
labor. II was their opinion that the
experience gained in the manage
ment of the labor banks would bring
a real understanding OF the business
of handling money and investments
and develop a knowledge OF the prob
lens OF capital. BY making capital
lists out OF the workers. directing the
investment OF their funds into safe
securities instead OF wildcat stocks
and by promoting thrift, they saw
good flowing from the enterprise. With
the mystery taken out OF banking.
the bubble OF fabulous earnings
picked. and the right OF an indiyid-
ual to his accumulated savings firm
ly established. It was patent that the
radicals would be disarmed OF their
thunder against the much-assailed
capitalistic system. On the other
hand. II was conceded that. with the
rise OF labor as a factor in finance
opportunities for the abuse OF The
worker by the bludgeon OF cruel
credit control would be more re-
stricted.
In their appraisal OF the movement
the events OF the past two years have
largely justified the view OF the con.
servatives. although the time is still
too short TO permi; mature judg
ment II is quite clear. however. that
labor has not revolutionized banking
the control OF credit has not been d.
verted from It's former channels.--
