ReIch.bank Desired by Germans.


Preparatory to the allied conference
here on July 16, considerable atten-
'tion is being given to Germany's plans
for acceptance. Interest for the mo-
ment is centered in the scheme for
formation of the German bank of is
sue.
Latest reports from Berlin indicate
a desire to maintain the Reichsbank,
not in its present form, but remodel
ed to conform to the ideas set forth
in the Dawes report. Safeguards such
as are contemplated under the con-
troll of an American commissioner, it
is believed here, would create such a
feeling of confidence that an interna-
tional loan for Germany would re-
ceive instant public support in both
London and New York
1t is with this in mind that the dip
lomats approach the conference with
greater confidence than they have dis
played previous to any other meeting.

CHAPTER 5A Reversal of
Form.

WHEN.l got back to Rochester,
w late in the fall OF 1914. after
winning my first medal and first title
i'll the Chicago tournament, | felt
that my lifc's work was done. l
had reached the ''pinochle OF sue
cess" as Ben Welsh used to say. All
Christie had told me that it might
be. years before4I could expect to
win big tournament, and yet had
in some miraculous way done just
that.
Unlike most professionals, l had
won a title while playing from my
home town. was born and brought
up in Rochester, as 1 mentioned be-
fore-and the home folks gave me
rousing welcome.
One of the first to greet nre was
dear old Al Christie. He seemed as
proud Of my winning as though he
had captured the event himself Al
explained later that he was afraid to
tell me exactly what he thought of
my golf before / went to Chicago,
a youngster. He thought 1t was bet
let me fight out my battle for
recognition without any preconceived
ideas about my faults and virtues.
And 1 guess he was right.
| was proud lad. If any one had
told me then that | was to have the
good fortune of winning every big
title played for in the world it would
have left me totally Unimpressed-
like telling the President that he is
House of Representatives. My goal
was achieved.
Not long ago 7 had occasion to
cheek over my collection Of trophies,
representing the British. French and
American openE the North and South,
Western. Metropolitan, Florida, Mas
sachusetts, New York, Eastern, Texas
and Pan-American, most of which
championships l have won twice and
some three tiTpes but that medal of
my first victory seems a little differ
ent from all the rest-still holds
thrill of remembrance all its own.
Interest Grows Threefold.
A champion always is in a position
to make considerable money playing
exhibition matches, and during the
following months / got quite a lit.
tie to do in that line, but it was noth-s
ing like the money champion makes
today.
guess ROlI Is ABOUT three times as
popular in this country now as it
was then. A well known player to-
day has all sorts of inducements to
cash in il he cares to exploit himself
signing testimonials for tonics,
hair oils. grass seed, Snappy Kut
klothes-everythi imaginable-as
well as the legitimate use of his
name or mark of preference on golf
articles and athletic goods. I have
always been chary of this sort of
thing and have never lent my name
to anything which did not sincerely
feel had been of value to me and
might be of value to others. A fairly
successful golf. pro makes a very
comfortable living as livings go,
whereas ten years ago $4,000 was a
difficult annuity.
That fall of 1914 Jim Barnes came
down for a visit. We played togethtr
in a few exhibitions and tournaments
and l started a nice little bank ac-
count. Later in the winter announce
ment was madt of the pan-American
championship, an event that caused
all the boys to sit up and take notice
as thousand-dollar prize was await
ing the winner. This purse was four
times as much as the United States
Golf Association put up and was well
worth crossing the continent to COM
pete for.
