DEFEAT FACES
COLLE:T
INVADERS
BY NAN o'RE1LLY

.
What chance Of victory will
Glenna Collett's team of Ameri-
can women have when they tee
up against the British players at
Sunningdale next week?
Unpatriotic as it may be, 1t
must be admitted that the odds
are at least to / against them.
And that, by the way. is giving a
slight edge to the girls who sailed
on the Berenzaria at midnight
last.
Look the situation over. Every
thing will initiate against the in
vaderS. They won't have time to
get rid of their "sea-legs" before
they meet the enemy; at least
five of the ten who will represent
the United States have never
played abroad before; conditions
will favor the home team, for
they have been practicing dill
gently for a month; if the wind
doesn't break the spirit Of the
Americans, the heather will break
their hearts; and last. but not
least, there will be at least four
weak sisters on Glenna's lineup.
The females are more
deadly than the males, in
England.
The women's championship Is
the only British title that hasn't
come across the ocean, although
repeated attempts have been
made. To be sure. Molly Gour.
lays team is lacking the services
of Joyce Wethered and Cecil
Leitch, but even laboring under
that handicap it is difficult to
see how the home players can
be beaten.
The Americans, by all the
signs, are due to lose, but they
should have a lot of fun in the
process. Scotch .fourSomeS will
be played. partners hitting alter
nate strokes.
Pity the girls who are called
on to play the tee shot at No. 7.
There's hill Is feet from the
green with sand trap cut across
the face of it. More cuSs words
have been used at that hole than
at any other in England.
But actually the thirteenth
is the prize. Imagine playing
to a green with sand pit in
the middle of it!
It sounds crazy, but it's true
and to make matters worse
there's a grassy mound at the
bottom. It's waist deep. This
gives an idea of how big the
green's are, for the flag is usually
placed at the back of the green
and there's plenty of room to
escape the pit.
But the heather will be respon
sible for most of the extra strokes
at Sunningdale; it's easy to waste
four or five strokes getting out
of trouble.
Playing from the front tees
will help the women. There's
heather at the third and fourth,
calling for maShie up the hill;
at No. S, where the fairway is at
an angle from an elevated drive
and the second must be played
across the lake; and at No. 6, one
of the toughest holes on the
course.
The eleventh is another
that will cause trouble, as the
drive is across the sand dunes
and the distance is so deCep-
tive that the ball lands
among thu trees more often
than on the green.
The second hole, across a stone
fence, there's a gravel road right
on the fairway, and If the ball
lands there it must be played as
q hazard. It's an average of sc
yards from the edge of the green
to the hole at the 24O-yard fiji

Cudahy.
Beside the meant packing in

DECLINE RULES
IN BERLIN

BERLIN, June 9 CU.s). = The
further decline on the Berlin
Bourse last week was character
lied by pessimism over sluggish
business.
The new taxation proposal Of
the government intended to wipe
out the budget deficit had a de-
pressing effect in Bourse circles,
traders declaring frankly that
they saw no prospect Of improve
ment, especially since the stock
market is under the constant
threat of taxation.
Nor do traders look for any
support of the market by for
eign purchases for some time,
figuring that the largest part Of
foreign capital in the near fu'
ture will be needed in the inter
national market to absorb the
reparations loan!
Toward the end Of the week
there was slight rally. but
business was on a too small scale
to make an appreciable differ
ence.

BANKING RULE
URGENT
.rimes stsff Photo

NEW YORK, June 9. - In an
address before the Peoples Lobby
here today, DR.. Max Winkler,
vice president of Bertron, Girls
com and Company, Inc, invest
ment bankers, advocated that SUI
pervision of foreign loans, unless
there are definite reasons of a po'
litical character against such
loans, be left entirely to the
American banker. ,...
The speaker declared it was his
opinion that so far, at least, our
financiers have exercised excel
lent Judgment and have displayed
marked fairness to the borrower
as well as to the investing public
and should be permitted to con
tinue this program, because there
is no doubt of their inclination to
avoid unsound and unethical
methods.
Dealing with foreign credits
the speaker estimated these now
amount to $16.604, 100000 in the
United States. His observations
showed that governments are not
as a rule, wilful defaulters and
that suspension of service almost
invariably results from ruinous
and impossible terms imposed by
the lenders. Government approva.
or disapproval of loan constitutes
no reliable criterion as regards
SoundnesS or investment quality
of the loan, he asserted.

U.S.. To EXTEND
ROUTES

Three thousand new miles of
lighted and completely equipped
airways will be added to the pres
ent Federal system Of l4,500 miles
during the coming fiscal year, As
sistant Secretary Of Commerce for
Aeronautics Clarence M. Young
announced yesterday.
The program will include 20
new airway radio stations for
broadcasting weather reports,
bringing the total to IS.
Telegraph Extended
In addition to these the system
of collecting current weather in
formation along the airways by
the use of automatic telegraph
writer's will be extended to $500
miles, and the radio beacon ser
vice will be developed to the point
where about half the airways will
be so equipped. Major Young
said:
when the airway program Of
the department is completed
there will be scarcely n square
mile of area in the United
States where flying is . regl.
lar activity where a pilot can.
not receive hourly brOadcastS Of
weather information in flight.
when il is recalled that but
few years ago . pilot flying
crOss-cOuntry had no knowledge
of weather conditions to be en-
countered with the possible ex-
ceptiOn of . report on cOndi-
tiOns at his destination. The
weather brOadcaSting service ON
the airways is an extremely inn
pOrtant development and should
contribute in . large measure
to the decrease in accidents
due to the weather.
Airway Facilities
"The facilities operated by
the department for the service
Of pilots include beacon lights
located at 10-miIe intervals
wherever the condition of the
terrain permits such spacing;

BELIEF
Bankers Wish to Dispose OF
ReparatiOns and Foreign
Bonds Before Rise in Stocks
BY JOHN E. NEvIN, Jr.

Oy JOkAAN 4NAS AANb SAs
A certain portion Of the finan-
cial district here appears to be
rather generally convinced that
some of the strong banking in
terests are not interested in the
stock market at this time. They
have the opinion that an excep-
tionally strong bullish market 1t
this period of the year would
not receive the full support Of
the entire banking element.
Floatation of the reparations
bond issue and other foreign gov
ernment bonds in substantial
amounts is believed by local f.
nanciers, as we'll as those in New
York, to be the chief object of
the banking element at this
time.
The type of stock market which
was shown to the general public
last week was one which would
encourage the buying of bonds by
private investors and thus facili-
tate the sale of bonds as desired.
Basing their statements upon
this theory, certain brokerage
firms have been advising Gus
toners to withhold commitments
until, at least, the reparations
issue is out of the way.
Stock market advisors have
fallen in line with the general
trend of opinion and point out
that the laggard stock market is
particularly vulnerable at this
time to raids from the bear ele-
ment due to it's slownesS and low
price range. However, one is con-
vinced that a portion of the bear
element do not wish to attack
the market at this time due to
the fact that severe raids will
seriously handicap the entire
mart itself.
The group of 800 or more local
bankers who attended the annual
convention of the District of
Columbia Bankers Association at
Asheville, N. c.. last week, today
returned to work. The parley
officially ended Saturday night
but a number of the members re-
manned in the Land of the
Sky until late yesterday.
A banquet. termed by members
as "the family dinner" was the
high point of the unofficial Ses-
sion last night. At this session
prizes for the various sports
tournaments were awarded.
Wilmer j. Waller, retiring pres
ident of the association, was feted
and lauded for the work he had
done during the year. A me
mento was presented him for
his services to the association.
Lanier P. McLachlen, new pres
ident of the organization, prom
ised members that his admins
tration would carry forward the
policies of the group.
Robert v. Fleming was an
nounced as the winner of the
Pop" Fleming cup. Granville
Guide was awarded the prize fol
the horseshoe pitching contest
while Clyde Asher gained perma
nent possession of the w. B
| Hibbs cup by winning it for the
third time this year.
