METCALFE'S COACH
FEARS T0LAN MOST
Marquette Flyer in Better
Trim Than at Palo Alto.
Williams Primed.
BY PAUL ZIMMERMAN,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


r OS ANGELES, July 25.-Little
Eddie Tolan is casting the darkest
shadow across Ralph Metcalfes
sprint path in the tenth Olym-
piad, as his coach from Marquette,
Mich, c. M. Jennings, sees it.
ut Is my personal opinion" said
Jennings. that Tolan will be the man
Metcalfe must beat, unless Percy Will
liams is back in form, and I am told
that he is in great shape. And then,
of course, there is Arthur Jonath of
Germany.
Strong as 1t may sound, don't be
surprised if|Metcalfe runs the hundred
meters in 102 sometime during the
games. He is in better form now than
he was at Palo Alto in the final team
trials and ready to CO."
A LII Of which indicates that Metcalfe
n either Is very good, or the United
States Is due for another rude
awakening following the short races of
the international speed festival at
Olympic Stadium next week. 1t was
Williams, Canadian high school boy
in his teens, who meted out the bad
news at Amsterdam four years ago by
winning both the 100 and 200 meters
from the seemingly invincible Ameri-
cans
Hec Edmundson, University of Wash
ington track and field coach. who has
contributed number of athletes to
Olympic teams past and present. Is
back in form.
The Vancouver, B. c., youth, only %
now, sought out Edmundson last Spring
when he started his preparation for the
defense Of his titles. He has been timed
in 106 since.
stNfETCALFE is a powerful, driving
1V1 runner" said Jennings. Hes
bit slow off the marks, yes.
but he makes up for this with his great
finish"
Coach Lawson Robertson Of the
American team is spending great
Frank Wykoff, Bob Kiesel. Hec Dyer
and Emmitt Tappino, brushing them
up on the technique of baton passing.
All have been used to slightly differ
ent form. so Robertson Is coaching
them on his own system.
Only a few blocks away from the
United States training field, Joe Wait
ger is printing his sprint stars from
GERMANY on the same fine points, but
in a different fashion. He thinks all
the American baton passing methods
are wrong and is coaching his own
system.
The receiving runner starts out at
top speed. swinging both arms to gain
momentum, and only at the proper
time does he extend his right hand
back to grasp the baton.
1T is no good unless the runners
timing is right he admitted, but If it
works each touch-of will put us l
meter ahead Of your Americans"

Golf Analysed
BY JOE GLASS.

nROBABLY the average player is
L more often of the line on full
iron shots than on any other
play he makes. A common reason
is faulty shoulder and arm action
at the top Of the swing. 1t will be
valuable, therefore. to note In some
ensuing articles the shoulder and
arm action of several greet stars at
the top Of the full iron swing.
All fine iron players have one
rule in common; they keep the club
in a balanced position well away
from tn shoulders at the top. The
extended left arm is only partly re-
sponsible. The right arm plays a
part perhaps more important than

Wives We're Bought.
On Easy Payments
$500 Years Ago
Archeologists Find Meth.
ods of Today Not So
Modern After All.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Auril THESE archie
ologists, who are always digging UP
new facts from the old, have brought to
light some new stories to show moderns
they are so modern after all.
No only did some of the ancients use
the installment plan for buying things
but in Babylonia some $500 years age
poor man could acquire a wife with
five shekels down and the balance in
easy payments.
Prof. Edward Chiera of the Uni
versity of Chicago told about it at a
conference yesterday of the American
Oriental Society. The story, he said
was written in clay tablets found at
tn site of the ancient Iraq City of
NuZi
Neither Is there anything new In the
Idea of brushing ones teeth. The
ancient Europeans some 1,700
years before Christ made rite of this
hygienic act, DR.. George V. Bobrins-
koy, also of the University Of Chicago
said Only they used twigs. taken from
living trees, instead of toothbrushes.
And these modern young newspaper
reporters who tear their hair when
their editors edit their copy may find
solace in the fact the ancient Egyp-
tians did the same thing. using chisels
on the hieroglyphics in place of pen
cils. This was brought out by Prof.
John A. Wilson of the institute.

How Shall We Balance Budget?
States Could Ayoid Borrowing by Cutting Expendi
tmes for Capital improvement and by
Economics in Administration.

sive in New England. where it amounts
to only 18 per cent of the State debt.
Just what the future of the State
governments in America is going to be
depends to large extent on the trend
Of the taxing power. If the States are
to develop new sources Of revenue, they
will gradually increase their response
bilities and the tendency may be to
centralize more power. in the State capi-
tai, especially that of co-ordinating local
governments. This has already occurred
in several States, where local units can
not borrow without making provision
for sinking fund and supervision of
their finances by the State government.
There is no doubt that during the last
decade the States have increased the
plant-that Is, they have added to capi-
tai assets by improving roads and build
ings and constructing buildings which
will last many, many years and take
care Of all the expansion that is prob
able in the next decade in the way
governmental activities. In other words,
these expenditures should have tend
ency to decline from now on and there
doubtless will be a halt to the con-
tinued borrowing. Within the next five
years such policy would mean the i'm
provement of State credit and the
gradual reduction of taxes
What the States need is to find way
to balance their budget and to quit
borrowing. They could do this by re-
ducing their expenditures for capital
improvement and by economies in ad-
ministration. Probably the largest per-
centage of economy will be effected in
connection with State budgets where
there is complete revision of taxing
systems. Some of the taxes have proved
so productive that they have led to ex-
travagance. Thus the gasoline tax,
which was originally intended to Gay for
road building, brought in not only
enough money to absorb that expense,
but to tempt some States to increase
their budgets and borrowing.
From all parts Of the Union there are
reports of increased interest in State
budgets and the trend is uniformly
downward. The item of unemployment
relief however, bulks large and is tenn
porarily obscuring the downward trend
of other items.

BROKERS FEAR TAX
WILL SLOW SALES
Further Inroads on Smaller
Volume Expected as Re-
suit of U. S. Levy.
Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April stock Exchange
brokers, whose business has dwindled to
, about one-fifth of its 1929 volume, fear
deeper inroads as result of increasing
taxes.
While they mostly insist taxes must
be increased to balance the budget re-
gardless of financial hardships that re-
suit, they express concern over the
probable effects of the proposed Federal
tax on stock transfers, approved by the
House yesterday
In reviewing two and a half years Of
declining stock prices, they record the
following changes in their fortunes:
Stock trading volume. which in the
boom period was considered normal at
5000, 900 shares day on the exchange,
is now running nearer 100000 shares
day.
Further Shrinkage Certain.
Stock Exchange seats which then
brought around $500000 are down
around 100000.
Brokers' revenues from arranging
loans to carry marginal customers,
which once netted many hundreds of
thousands of dollars year, are down
to nominal size.
Further shrinkage is certain to de-
velop in stock trading, they say, If the
tax burden on customers becomes too
heavy. They admit they cannot tell
whether the new tax will be enough to
stife the day-to-day trader-but they
insist it would seriously hamper him. In
support of their arguments they nave
figured out the cost of present and pro-
posed tax rates on the round trip
process of buying and selling unit OF
100 shares of stock.
Purchase and sale of that many
shares of stock selling at IS entails a
commission expense of SIS, New YORK
State tax of $4 proposed Federal tax
which at its minimum rate would be 81,
thus making total charge to the Gus
toner of S23 This amounts to as per
cent of the purchase price.
Hampers Speculation.
For a $40 stock which is the most
important barometer, because the aver
age price of stocks listed on the ex-
change stands close to that level, there
is $25 commission charge for 100
shares, 81 State tax, SIS proposed Fed
eral tax, making a total cost OF $34. or
IT per cent.
For an $50 stock the cost would be
$40 commissions on 100 shares, 81
State tax, $40 Federal tax, or S64 In
ALL amounting to eighttenths of per
cent.
These charges. leading brokers con-
tend, would make little difference in
the total of business they transact for
investors who buy stocks outright to
hold for years.
But every increase in the cost of
doing business tends to restrict the vol
ume of speculative trading, they say,
and it is this business that is particu-
larly profitable to brokerage houses
Furthermore, they point out, many
large brokerage houses are running
heavily into the red"
