Golf Analyzed
by JOE GLASS

'fEHE are IllTee ways 10 play
i long iron shot One way is to
hit the ball before the club
head reaches the low arc of the
doWn-swing. The second is to have
the clubhead meet the ball at the
. lowest point of the swing. The third
is to bring the clubhead into the ball
just as it is starting up from the low
point.
OF course, a good player will use
any and all of these methods as the
situation warrants. The lie of the
pail has a good deal to do with pro-
cedure. At Baltimore Jimmy john
ston hit down on his ball with rather
an upright swing, the face of the
club being closed, and obtained a
ball with a low trajectory that car
ried long distance and yet stopped
quickly because it had a lot Of
bite
In the Walker Cup matches at
Boston I saw Torrance, the British
star, get almost similar results by
opening the face of his club and
hitting the ball at the low arc of his
swing through. After contact, how
ever, his clubhead stayed low, SEEM
4HS 10 SIlue dIOHg lne Lur1.
Again, George Duncan will get
great loft, which ordinarily will
stop ball, by hitting the ball after
the clubhead has passed the low
point in the swing A stance well
opened, with the ball well forward,
off the left heel, and, indeed. almost
opposite the left toe, is responsible.
His swing could not be called up
right, either.
Duncan's method is practicable
for the duffer. However, he should
be careful that the surface to which
he is playing is not too hard nor
too smooth. In that case no
amount of loft will avert a bounce
ending in roll.

 REST OF COUNTRY
WOOL MARKET

Boston, Dec 10--FaRm values in New England have held up better during the slump than values in any other section of the United States, with the sole ex- ceptiOn of California, Horace .BOwl<er,' authority.
 "AIthOugh farm values i'm more than twO-thirds of the states are now below prc-war levels, tho value of farm lands in New England arc sixteen per cent higher than those before the war;" said Mir B0wkcr. "In some of tho north central states farlnG values are at 27 per cent below the prc-war level, in tho south and middle Atlantic states, four per cent below.
 'The average value of farm lands In the United States Is now 89 per cent of the prc-war aver- age. thus indicating that New England farm values have held up better by approximately Onc-, quarter than the general nation al average of farm values"
 In analysing the plight of agriculture Mir Bowl<er asserted that recovery can be brought abont only by restoration of pur- chasing power of the public, pointing out that present federal. statc and local taxes arc still piled liiglI. Tho national income, said Mir BOwkcr, has dropped from $S5, ,0OO, 100000 in 1929, to $50,OO0.O0O,OO0 in 1882.

4. As I have pointed out, the discussion of debts is necessarily connected with the solution of major problems at the world eco- homie conference and the arms conference.
 The ideal way would therefore seem to be that some of our rep resentatives in these matters should be selected at once who car perform both these functions oi preparing for qthe,s world economic conference, and should exchange views upon the debt question with certain nations at once and advise upon the course to be pursued as to others.
 "It would be an advantage for some of them to be associated with the arms conference. Some part of the delegates appointed for this purpose would well be selected from the members of Congress.
 "On the side of the executive, this is no derogation of either ex- ecutive authority or independence: {: on the side of the Congress, it is no commitment but provides for the subsequent presentation to the congress of the deliberations, in- tricacies. the reasoning and facts upon which recommendations have been based and is of first impor- tance in enabling the congress to give adequate consideration to such conclusions.
 5-Dlscussions in respect to both debt questions and the world eco- homie situation in the world neces- sitates the preliminary work essen- tial to it's success. The undertak- ing of these preliminary questions should not be delayed until after March A."
