Chas. Brand Defends Bill
Continued from first nagel

(COntlnueO from IrSl pager
The whole purpose of the dill, MIR.
Brand says, is not to guarantee or to
fix price, but to establish min
imum price level for export. He in
sisted that there would be- no sub
stantial increase in production, ar
guing that, during the war, with
wheat above So a bushel, the total
was 908,O00,000 bushels, and That
the limit of easily disable wheat lands
had been reached. He declared that
the bill would help other products, of
course, besides wheat, and would be
specially helpful to the hog raiser,
since ratio would be established
based on the price of other commodi-
ties. He did not see how there could
be any material increase in nog pro-
duction because the price of corn
would regulate that. In fact, his the
DRY is that a stabilized relation would
obtain between all farm products.
Mr.. Brand has against him some OF
the influential advisers of the admin
istration on agricultural economies.
President Coolidge is endeavoring to
maintain an open mind. The bill has
been reported favorably to the senate
by the agricultural committee, and
has the support of the Secretary Of
Agriculture. 1t is being considered
in executive session by the House
committee on agriculture. Already
there is evidence that the bill will DE
the center of attention in the agricul-
tural world, as well as in the grain
business, for many weeks to come

Remarkable Performance.
In the East VS.. West match that pre-
ceded the national open tournament at
1nwood in 1928 the gallery following
one of the fourscores witnessed
performance at the green that prob
ably never has been equaled, and Ger
tainly never has been surpassed. On
that occasion the enthusiasts suffered
from an excitement SO nerve rack-
ing that wholesale heart failures
might easily have resulted.
Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen
were pitted against Jock Hutchinson
and Granddaddy John Black. OF
course, that quartet put on some
great golf. Hole after hole was hotfy
contested. Beautiful plays followed
each other in rapid succession.
But it remained for the thirteenth
hole to provide the climax of the
exhibition. The thirteenth is APO
players were in the vicinity of the
green on their second shots.
Here is how the balls lay: Blacks

back of the green, thirty-five feet
from the hole, and Hagen's nearer
than any of the others, about twenty
five feet, but-too bad for Walter-in
a trap at the right of the green.
Grandfather John was the first to
shoot, and you may believe me, there
was great applause when the veteran
rolled his ball straight into the hole,
giving himself birdie 3. and appar-
emily presenting the west with an
honor over the east.
Gene Sarazen was. next. Blacks

ITALIANS QUIT FLOOR
IN OLYMPIC FENCING

PARIS, June 30.-A protest fled by
the Argentine Olympic fencing team
against M. Berry, captain of the Hun
garian team, charging him with pro-
fcssionalism, was disallowed by the
Olympic authorities today.
1t was ruled that the Argentines,
who were defeated by a margin of
one touch by the Hungarians, were
definitely out of the tournament and
that the Hungarians should continue.
The Italians, virtually assured of
second place. abandoned the foils
team event in protest against de-
cisions during their match with
France.
They marched off the floor singing
their national anthem. Then they
were automatically disqualified from
all further fencing competition in the
Olympics.
The Belgian team defeated Hun
