COMPETITION
FOR LOSSES
Merchants Burden Selves
Needlessly, U. 5. Cham
Der Man Says.

Competition and faults in the ma.
tional system of distribution of mer-
chandise are causing merchants heavy
losses, Alvin Il. Dodd, manager of the
domestic distribution department of
the United States chamber of COM
merce, here to speak before Trade Sea.
son visitors, declared Wednesday.
Mr.. Dodd, brought here by the cham
bcr Of commerce, spoke Tuesday on
national problems of distribution and
their effect on the local merchant.
Wednesday his subject was competition.
Competition is kecner than ever
before" he said. The retailer who
does not make use of modern methods
will not survive long"
INITIATIVE IMPORTANT.
there are many labor and overhead
saving devices, merchants must not
forget initiative. Some OF the compe-
tition factors to be considered, he said
are store location. accounting meth
DDS. budgeting, advertising, window
trimming, stock arrangement and con-
troll, mark ups, deliveries, credit and
seasonal fluctuations.
Competition gone mad causes many
expenses with which merchants are
burdened. he asserted. The merchant
himself is to blame for losses and
worry, when he injudiciously extends
credit, he said.
The best remedy for the "house TO
house" canvass element is to fight With
merchandise and prices, and not senti.
ment, Mr.. Dodd said.
Offer equal merchandise at favor
able prices" he suggested.
CHAIN STORE LESSONS.
Chain stores have taught independ.
emit merchants many beneficial lessons,
he declared. Cut-throat competition is
dying out, and responsibility to the
community is taking its place. Mr..
Dodd scored too many cut-price sales
because Of the harmful effect on Gus
toners who believe original prices were
too high.
Mr.. Dodd showed visiting merchants
how the modern householder uses prod
ucts from many different parts Of the
United States and from other coun-
tries. In such distribution, the NOR
chant is affected intimately by nation
al problems of storage, transporta ton,
cancellation, returned goods, credit, adj
vertising, taxation and insurance, he
said.
Retail trade has grown enormously,
he said. In 1922, the sum of whole
sale and retail sales was nearly sixty
billion dollars, he declared.

Won ELM IS COASTS
GOLF TOURNEY HOPE

OAKMONT. Pa. August 26 N).-
California and, in fact, the entire Pa
cific coast have placed their 1925 anna
teur golf championship hopes on the
capable shoulders of George Won Elm
of the Rancho Golf Club of Los An
geles, who last year at Merton carried
through to a final match with Bobby
Jones, only TO be beaten by 3 to 8.
This year in his home State Won
Elm has given evidence that he will
he a powerful contender in the ma
tional tournament, which starts at
Oakmont August 81, by capturing
three titles--the northern California
amateur and southern California open.
Won Elm held titles previously. In
1921 and 1922 he was Pacific North
west amateur champion. but it is in
the role of runner-up that he has be-
come nationally known.
Three years ago. after winning the
southern California amateur and lead
ing the qualifiers with 14S. he was
runner-up to Rudy Knepper in the
trans Mississippi and the same to
Chick Evans in the Western open at
Kansas City.
A year later he was third in the
open in southern California and in
the State open tied with George Kerri-
gan at 307 for thirteenth place, one
stroke ahead of Gene Sarazen.
Won Elm is an exceptionally good
golfer-a great shot-maker-and his
frmness under fire will stand him in
good stead on the heavily trapped Oak,
mont course, where only 16 of 134 will
qualify.

FRENCH PAIRS LOSE
IN THE u. S. DOUBLES

BROOkLINE. Mass, August 26.-
Frances leading Davis Cup doubles
team. Rene Lacoste and Jean Borotra,
the pair who will bear the entire bur-
den of the Davis Cup play In the In
terzone final with Australia, went
down in defeat.
A team of youngsters from the Uni
versity Of Texas, Lewis N. White of
Austin and Louis Thalheimer of Dal-
las, furnished stunning setback to
the hopes of the French International
lists, IN the national doubles cham
pionship at the Longwood, 7--5, 3-6,
6-3. 81. 6-4.
1t was a splendid triumph for the
Texans, who twice won the inter.
collegiate doubles title together. to de-
feat the team that captured the cham
pionship at Wimbledon this year. They
richly earned their victory with their
sharp, aggressive stroking, their
clear volleying and their superiority
in service.
White was the outstanding figure
on the court. His whiplash service
was irresistible. So much so that In
six successive games that he served
the opposing pair won a total of one
point, five of the games going at love.
Throwing the ball high into the air,
the tall, spare young Texan leaned on
ii with a terrific impact of his racket
and Borotra and Lacoste simply made
futile stabs at 1t. Whenever they
succeeded in getting it back the
youths from the Southwest were al
the net to NOV down the returns with
terrific overhead sInashes by White or
sharply angled volieys by the alert
Thalheimer.

Ozark Ripley tells of a delightful
instance of this well known fact
Ripley was fishing on Michigan
stream recently and was attracted by
the excellent dry fly work of a fellow
angler. Ozark is an expert himself
and the two became very friendly,
and parted on d basis of friendship.
The next time Ripley saw his COM
panion was in a large Chicago hotel
He was bootblack there and was
working on Ripley's shoes when he
smilingly inquired If he wasn't the
man he met on the Michigan stream.
Small black bass, we are told, make
fine aquarium pets. They will take
house flies from your hand and look
eagerly to meal time. And the bass
in the tank unwittingly gives les
sons in fishing which may be turned
to advantage by the observer. The
manner in which the little bass takes
the fly contains many a hint which
may be put to use on lake or stream.
Bears, we read, cause a good deal
of damage by climbing telephone
poles after the bees they hear
buZzing there. They break the lin

performances ranging from subtle
humor through straight comedy to
slapsuck comedy, of which the above

Another example is in the way they

Forest Service has had to erect steel

Editor OF The Star,
Dear Sir:
have read your articles on "Col-

truth i'm the statements made.
Many of the Objectionable prac-
tices I'm connection with foot ball
would readily be eliminated II the
larger institutions would live up to
the recognized and accepted rules.
Your articles will no doubt have
helpful effect in that direction.
Athletic sports, properly con-

no reason why athletics should
not be made to pay their way.
With a very few exceptions, this
is about all the colleges aim for.
