DICTATORSHIP TO ENFORCE
BRUENINC PROGRAM IS SEEN

BERLIN, Oct. 1.-F1-Although
commended widely, the financial
program Of Chancellor Bruening
and his cabinet. published yester-
day. seemed certain today to travel
a rocky road before 1t gains Reich
stag approval.
Many observers we're convinced
that the parliamentary dissension
which already, prior TO converting
Of the new body, Is disrupting the
political life of the nation. WOULD
prevent its passage at all. but would
precipitate enactment by decree and
the dictatorship which the presi-
dency has threatened.
The program as presented would
tax the strength Of a government
with a well ordered sizeable major
ity In the Reichstag: as a product
of the Bruening ministry, which
would not be sure of life in even
trivial circumstances under the
present Reichstag composition. 1t
has appeared as a startling. aston
ishing document certain to draw
the concentrated fire OF the large
opposition elements in the Reich
stag.
Program Commended
But with its rigid economies, its
specifications for reductions Of
taxes and its slash Of 20 per cent
In salaries has commanded wide
attention, and In many circles un-
qualified approval. Bankers parti-
cularly commended 1t to the Ger
man public.

prominent posts in Germany told

The consensus was that this game

In fact, when the game was arranged

And all of them would be favor
able.
Its the best foot ball game I
have seen this season." said James
j. Walker, mayor Of New York.
And he meant what he said. His
honor thoroughly enjoyed the
game. He saw it from a box di-
rectly back Of where Knute
Rockne sat on the side lines.
The mayor went out with Rockne
between halves. Whether Rockne gave
Notre Dame q fight talk, don't know.
II he did, 1t did not accomplish much,
for in the second half the New York
Giants added points to the is points
they had garnered In the first half,
making the final score az to 0. Had

tiers, the score probably would have been

The two players to whom he referred
were BENJAMIN Friedman and JACK

Notre Dame this year. Playing a
usual, with no head guard, Cannon was
the best guard on the field.
Cannon Noses Out Plays.
Johnny Fitzpatrick Of Yale, all
American himself in 1909 and 1910, sat
in a field box and marveled at the ac-
curacy with which Jack Cannon fol-
lowed the ball. One moment Cannon
was leaping high to intercept forward
pass and the next minute he was out
making tackle on the end.

team gets out of its tracks. He must

Cannon. AS a matter of fact, the opin-
ion appeared to be fairly universal. But

my friend, Adam Walsh. Walsh looked
as big, blond and determined as he was
when he was an a1l-American center at
