MINNEAPOLIS, July l1.-Al Hough-
ton of Washington and A. B. Thorn of
Bethesda, Md. completed their 36-hole
play in the National Open golf tourna-
ment today with cards of 159. The
third entrant from that district, Mel
Shorey, totaled 161.
OF the three men, Thorn shot the
best golf today, getting a n for the
18 holes after taking 80 on the first
trip around Thursday. Houghton had
70 yesterday, but needed 81 today. and
Shorey took an 81 today to add to
his 79.
None of these scores is believed low
enough to place among the so to tee
of in the final SO holes Saturday.
Their l. cards:

Houghton's score was boosted on the
seventh hole when he took Z.
A birdie on the 530yard par twelfth
hole gave Thorn a good start on the
second nine, as he had par figures for
the tenth, eleventh and thirteenth.
Shorey got into all kinds of trouble
on the fifth and sixth holes. He was
/ over par on the fifth and on the par
4 sixth he needed strokes. The mar
row fairway would not hold his shorts
and the traps found his ball too often.

FARM BOARD SEES
BIG RETAIL SAVING
Policy of informing Public
When Conditions Warrant
Cut Adopted.
By the Associated Press.


Figuring it has saved consumers
$33,000,00C a month in the retail price
Of meat and increased producers profits,
The Farm Board has decided to inform
the public whenever it believes condi-
tons warrant cut in the retail price
CT agricultural products.
c. c. league, board member repre-
senting fruits and vegetables, said today
that while no definite policy had been
established he had no doubt the board
would issue statements in regard to re-
rail prices whenever the opportunity
arose to benefit the general public.
leagues statement followed reports
of drastic cut in the retail price Ct
beef since June rs. when C. B. Denman
representing live stock on the board
announced that as result OF the de-
cline in wholesale and live weight prices
the consumer should find current prices
of beef considerably lower.
Cut In Price Reported.
Within 10 days the Retail Meat
Dealers Association had reported
cut of 10 per cent in the price of good
beef and 20 pei cent on common grades.
AT Kansas City, Mo-, general 10
cents-a-pound reduction was reported
and in Washington, D. c., for the first
time in years, club steaks were ad-
vertised on 50-cent dinners.
Prior to Denman's statement the re-
tail price of beef had maintained a
constant leve' despite the succession cf
dips taken by wholesale and live weight
oh in ~
said, had made some reduction, but it
was not until housewives made a con-
certed demand for lower prices that the
general price line took its precipitate
dive
Estimating total beef consumption at
5000, 000,0 900 pounds year, Denman said
a 5-cects-a-pound reduction in retail
price would save consumers $500, 000,000
a year, or $33 100000 month
In the first week following his an.
nouncement Denman said the country
beheld-for the first time in history
the spectacle OF retail prices going down
while live weight prices assembled.
Consumer Is Considered.
Declaring that administration of the
agricultural marketing act contemplated
the welfare of the consumer as we'll rs
that of the producer, Denman said the
consumer could do collectively in ad-
iusting retail prices were unlimited. He
pointed specifically to the retail prices
of diary and poultry products.
league said one OF the chief prob
lens of agriculture was the spread be-
tween the producers price and the con-
sumers price
The producer" he declared, "is not
getting his proper share of the con-
sumer's dollar Part of that is due to
expensive systems Of distribution that
the public had demanded-delivery
credit and fancy stores that necessitate
nigh rent
There is coming, believe, somewhat
OF a readjustment Of those things
through cash-and-carry stores and
lower margins
The only way we see that we can
definitely and permanently effect it is in
the development of cooperative market
ing organizations, whereby the growers
can act collectively and cut down the
cost of distribution of their product
through handling large volumes and
efhcient merchandising"

EXAMINES SALES
OF STEEL STOCKS
Youngstown Merger 0ppo-
nentS Tell Court Votes
Were Cast Illegally.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio. July 1.-THE
brokerage accounts through which
Youngstown Sheet g. Tube Co. stock
was bought and sold during the proxy
war preceding approval of the sale of
the company to Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration were under scrutiny today in
the trial of suit to enjoin the deal.
In a deposition which attorneys for
the Cyrus S. Eaton interests read into
the record, Grayson M. P. Murphy, New
York stock broker, testified that at one
time during the battle for voting stock
he was unable to determine whether
the account he was handling was that
of Elton Hoyt. I'd; a group Of individ-
uals, or of Pickands, Mather & Co., ore
firm.
Hoyt is a partner in Pickands. Mather
& Co., which, according to testimony
in the trial, purchased several millions
of dollars worth of Youngstown COM
pany stock.
Murphy said he had been told by r
B. McMath of the Bethlehem corpora
ton that the latter concern could not
enter into any of the transactions. 1t
was brought out yesterday through the
testimony of H. c. Dalton, another
partner in Pickands, Mather a. Co., that
Bethlehem loaned his firm $4,000 to
replenish some of the money spent for
stock.
The Eaton attorneys seek to show
through the exposition of the stock deals
that much of the stock was Illegally
voted at the meeting of stockholders,
April 8, 1880. 1t was at this meeting
that merger of Youngstown and Beth
lehem was approved by two-thirds ma
jority.

in Northwest Georgia and severe crop

In addition to the blazing tempera-
lures the elements loosed a hailstorm
which laid low crops in a 15-square-

The only death directly attributable
to the heat was that of a Negro in

landed on the third tee behind a low,
spreading tree. His out was spectacu-
lar, but he took puts.
Tommy was having trouble with his
approach puts. They were stopping
short, and he was left goodly second
puts on most holes. On the short fifth
his second failed to drop, and he needed
for the hole, leaving him 2 over
par again. He got par on the sixth
without trouble.
Armour frightened up on the next
two holes. however, getting a par 3 on
the short third and a smart birdie 1
on the fourth tC put him only ! down
to par. His second on the fourth was
IN the rough, but he pitched to within
easy putting distance and dropped it
for birdie
Armour constantly was in trouble
either with short puts, shanked irons,
or hooked drives, but he managed to
stagger along with a pair of par Is on
the seventh and eighth.
A birdie clattered off his trusty
war clubs on the long ninth waterhole
and Tommy rounded the turn with a
81, one over par. He was on in and
missed an eagle by inches.
Bobby Jones knew he had the fight of
his fighting life in front of him today
as the big push for the National Open
Golf championship stampeded through
sitting heat into its second round.
Jones wasn't upset. He was satisfied
Yet he would rather be from three to
four strokes behind any one except
Armour and Mac Smith.
Keeps Eye on Hagen.
He would feel more comfortable to
have a player of the caliber of Hagen
more serious than ever before and play
ing the golf that made him famous in
yesteryears, a little farther away.
There were three others - Harry
Cooper of Chicago, J. E. Rogers of
Denver and George M. Smith of Chi
cago-in the strictly par class. But
by the time the four 18-hole rounds are
over they are expected to be bringing
up the rear. Cooper, runner-up to
Armour in 1927, may prove the excep-
ton, however, as he seems on his game
as never before.

DR.. T|NDALL GIVEN
SERVICE TRIBUTE.
Commissioners and Senators
Honor Veterans 81 Years
With District.

The District Building board room
was packed to overlooking today as
high and low officials of the local gov
eminent took time off to do honor to
DR.. William Tindall, who has served it
for 81 years. Senator Arthur Capper
of Kansas, chairman of the Senate
District Committee, who introduced and
managed the legislation rewarding Dr.
Tindall with lifetime job, was the
principal speaker. The ceremony was
arranged by Francis Wells.
Tax Assessor William P. Richards,
himself a veteran of the service, pre-
sented DR.. Tindall with an enormous
horseshoe bouquet and an ornamental
desk set on behalf of DR.. Tindall's
fellow workers.
Senator Capper said that the only
objection he had met in his campaign
to continue Or. Tindall in the service
in spite of the retirement law was that
1t might set a precedent. His reply
to that was that If anybody else
reached the age of IS and was "still
going strong" in rendering excellent
service after So consecutive years he
would be happy tofollow the precedent.
DR.. Tindall was given an ovation
as he walked into the palm decked
room escorted by Health Officer Will
liam c. Fowler and Clifford Lanham,
superintendent Of trees and parkings,
old friends
After hearing his efficiency, courtesy
and kindliness eulogized by Luther H.
Reichelderfer, chairman of the Board
of District Commissioners, Senator Cap
per and MIR. Richards, DR.. Tindall made
a Enthusiastically modest reply.
DR.. Tindall is the chief of the Dis
tricts Information Bureau. He has
served as secretary to the heads of
government of the District under all
of it's forms. He became secretary to
Gov. Alexander Shepherd shortly after
being mustered out of the Union Army,
which whose forces he fought in seven
major engagements.

may be another two weeks. What he
may do then Is likely to depend a great
deal upon the situation in which he
finds himself at that time. He demon
strated again that he does not intend
to be forced out of Office under fire.
In the meantime, however, the foes
of Mr.. Huston in the Senate and the
House, who believe that he should re-
sign as chairman, may start something.
Just what is not apparent yet. If the
future may be judged by the past, at
tacks upon Mr.. Huston and demands
for his resignation are likely to result
in stiffening his determination not to
go out of Office.
The meeting called yesterday by Mr..
Huston was to discuss plans for the
coming congressional campaign. They
were discussed, and Mr.. Huston issued
statement about these plans, which
follows:
THE same plan is being followed this
year in the raising of campaign funds
as was followed in 1926, in that the
entire requirements of the party are
being raised through the treasurer OF
the National Committee and allocated
to the Senatorial and Congressional
Committees, who are in active charge of
the coming campaign. The treasurer,
J r. Mutt, reported that satisfactory
progress was being made to insure the
proper needs of these committees and
that his organization would continue
with the work until smficient money
had been pledged to supply the ex-
penses of the campaign and provide for
the normal expenses of the National
Committee for the ensuing year
Both Senator Moses and Repre-
sentative Wood reported that their or
carnations were functioning in a sat
isfactory manner and. while 1t is too
early to forecast results, prediction was
made that party chances would i'm
prove as the campaign grew nearer.
"A number of vacancies exist on the
National Committee which were dis
cussed and will be presented for action
by either the Executive Committee or
the National Committee in the Gus
tomary way when called by the chair
man."
