Danger of Imperialist War Now Imminent

International conflicts and wars
are caused by finance, commerce and
trade, Sir Henry w. Thornton, pres
ident of the Canadian National Rail
ways, told the Rotary International
Convention at the Chicago Stadium
Wednesday.
GAS the armies of trade march
across nations" Thornton al d,
they Immediately come into con-
flict with the barriers of tariff and
national pride"
Without actually mentioning the
billion dollar tariff just enacted by
American imperialism, T hornto n
practically admitted that a new inn
perialist war was approaching,
when he significantly remarked that
"even today signs are not wanting
of the effect upon international re-
lations of tariff barriers and COM

for markets, which is both offensive
and Defensive, lies anquestionabLy
the real menace to 1Vorld peace"
AS a Captain of industry himself,
Thornton knows very well who it
is that makes robber wars today.

 Johnny meets Tufy Griffiths, highly touted Sioux City. la, punch CT, in the ten round feature bout at the Chicago Stadium Wednesday night in the current weeks out standing fistic attraction.
 Risko may not be going anywhere in particular but he takes an unholy glee in seeing that none of his rivals do either. Always on the short ends, 1t seems. when he tackles one of the leaders, Risko, more often than not, has slapped, cuffed and roughed his way to victory or made his opponent look entirely unimpressive. A vet eran as fighters go, Risko has met only one really decisive defeat in recent years, losing on a technical knockout to Max Schmeling here last year. A few weeks ago, Risko slapped Paulino Uzcudun all around the ring in a ten round battle at De- troit. He should give Griffiths an argument all the way.

No to be outdone by his son, who has figured lately as winner at Shuttle Meadow, Donald L. Bartlett,
 Sr., played in the foursome that took first place in the four ball, best ball golf tournament at the local club on Saturday afternoon. Bob Poteet, Cliff Merwin and George Bean sup ported MT. Bartlett so well that the quarter turned in a net score of 54.
 While his dad was doing duty with
 his foursome, Donald Jr, was en- gagged in the last half of the 36-hole finals of the junior cham pionship of Shuttle Meadow in which he defeat ed L. W. Young, Jr., one up, after
 3S holes of hard competition. He
 won the cup which the boys had
 purchased from their entry fees for the event.
 On one Of those days that are per feet for golf and rare to other months than June, 40 stalwart fol- lowers of the game of the Scots teed
 off early and departed for the shore after finishing their rounds. At one
 o'clock the clubhouse was thronged and at 5:3O it was deserted, except
 for the tournament committee mem bers who were posting the ringer score.

 three ringers" in the box and he will be watching the score sheet like hawk to see if they are posted and he keeps on the trail of those in

 .n that connection it might be noted that Ted Hart needs but two
 birds, on the 10th and 11th, to con- plete his collection for the season and as he has one eagle, another birdie will make his selected score IS below par.
 Getting back to Saturday and the
 best ball tournament, Al Borg. Bot Mcconnell, Hartfodr Hatch and
 Dave Mahoney hooked up together in the combination that took second prize with net of 56. They scored a gross of 75 which is about the speed Borg can travel alone if his game gets hot. He used to burn 'em up at Sequin but has not yet hit his stride at Shuttle Meadow.
