blad, in q match for the title tomorrow

as many times he regained the lead. I'M
til he ran out with an unfinished run
of three in the fortieth inning. In the
sixteenth inning he trailed Layton, 10
to 8. At the close Of the twentieth he

N JEW YORK, January 2e.-Despite
M the business depression and the
Y drought, which left many Mid
west fairways and green's brown
sere before the Summer was half over,
play increased last year on the golf
courses dotting the country between
the Alleghenies and the Rockies, ana
ambitious plans are made for 1881.
The III winds that brought no rain
last Summer blew some good
thoughts into the minds of club execu-
tives, who have decided in many cases
to install sprinkling systems to ward
against further Summer drought.
Heading the list in this respect are
the swanky Wakonda Cup OF Des
Moines, with one Of the sportiest ID
hole layouts in the Middle West; the
White Bear Yacht Club Of st. Paul,
which. although located on the shore
of White Bear Lake, found 1t necessary
to put in a sprinkling system for Its
fairways. and the Columbus, Ohio,
Country Club. Wakonda spent $4,000
on It's system. White Bear Yacht Sill 500
and Columbus Country estimates its
system will cost $4,000.
BOOms I'm Minnesota.
Minnesota generally had a good year
in golf, with pay on public and private
courses an estimated 20 per cent above
1929 and with plans for course improve
ment in 1891 calling for total outlay
of more than $250,O00. North Dakota
golfers will spend more than 500, 900
in course improvement. Iowa at least
that much and probably considerably
more.
Michigan and Kansas. reports to the
Associated Press and the United States
Golf Association indicate. will do little
course building or improving this year.
Most observers agree these two States
were overbuilt in the two or three years
preceding 1880 and the demand is just
catching up with the supply.
Every State. however, reported large
increase in play last year, ranging from
10 to IS per cent.
Columbus, Ohio, where the Ryder
Cup matches will be held on the Sc!oto
Club links in June, Is having a golf
revival this year Scioto built four new
green's and is dressing up the course
generally. Four holes were added to

PARIS, France, April 30-With the
approach of the date set by the Chinese
government for the abrogation Of extra
teritoriality, fears are expressed in
French government circles that for
eigners in China may suddenly be de-
prived of all serious legal protection.
France is willing to see extraterritor-

but criminal jurisdiction over foreigners

It Is suspected here that the British

LITTLE ENTENTE"
TO ACT ON UNION
Common Economic Policy
Move Toward BRAND Pro-
posaI for Europe.


By the Associated Press.
PARIS, April 30.-When the little
entente meets at Bucharest next Mon
day it will take the first definite step
toward a European economic union,
Aristide BRAND has been informed.
A common economic policy for the
agricultural states will be drawn UP by
Rumania, Jugoslavia and Czechoslo-
vakia, and submitted to Hungary, Po-
land and Bulgaria for their approval.
In the main, it is understood, the pro-
posal will be to remove tariffs on imports
from industrial states in return for re-
moval of duties on agricultural products.
To Meet Move Half Way.
M. BRAND is actively trying to meet
this move half way by the time his
Economic Union Committee meets at
Geneva on May Is. He Is carrying on
double duty as European leader. first
by bringing France into line with his
scheme and second by presenting the
same arguments to England, Holland,
Belgium, italy and other nations.
In the first respect he has so far
obtained from the council of ministers
three increases in the percentage of
foreign wheat imports permitted in
France. This makes a total increase
from 10 to Is per cent within the
month, based on the argument that
opening French markets for Eastern
European wheat will open reciprocal mar
kets for general letting down Of bars
on wheat imports, thus relieving the
stagnant Eastern European grain mar
ket.
Greater Credit Possibilities.
In order to get speedy action, M.
BRAND has also discussed the possibili-
ties Of opening greater credits which
would make it possible to relieve the
Eastern wheat market rapidly, but the
chief purpose of which is to show at
Geneva the practical result of an eco
nomic union, thereby making the Aus
tro-German treaty appear like a narrow.
nationalistic move.
It is considered important to bring
Hungary and Bulgaria into agreement
with other agricultural countries, max
ing a new division of Europe along eco
nomic lines as opposed to the old politi-
cal, nattonalistic division.
