about many things. ssme etimes pre-
foundly, sometimes Aippantly,
sometimes recklessly.
Observe the book writer's.

OpSefVe the DOCK writers.
How many books have been writ
ten telling us and sundry how to cure
the depression.
The blues singers and the crooners
have got just about as far in the field
OF curing.
Books pour forth. Books are sold
IN quantities that are doubtless
gratifying to the publishers and the
book writer's.
There have been dozens of depres-
sion doctor books.
And the depression thrives upon
them.
1t is an interesting and perhaps an
unique development.
The book writer's and the profess
serial gentry seem to share the same
unfruitful field. They ponder and
they pour forth circumlocutions and
reverberations. The hills roll back
the echoes, but the factories do not
even feel a shiver.
Now all this to too bad.
1t is no great credit to a nation that
it's thinkers think and the nation does
not heed
If the book writer's and the profess
sional gentlemen of the coteries had
been effective in the outpouring of
their product we should have been
out of the depression in a jiffy and
everything would be jake.
But alack and alas! Shall we
search for reasons?
Why not? What harms it to blurt
forth blast of truth? Nothing, save
perhaps some wounded feelings and
vanities.
There is reason and clear one.
Most of the book writer's and most of
the professional gentlemen have built
their remedies around an infection.
And America is just wise enough
to know that depression is not to
be cured by implanting another in
fection.
The communist craze came just far
enough ahead of our depression to al
low the color or communist thought
and monkey business to seep into the
book writing and PROFESSIONAL heads
to color their economic thought.
Most of the book remedies for this
depression have been tinged with
some shading of communist thought.
They have run to rampant govern
mentalism and to varied collection
of mass action and social upheaval
vagaries.
America has been sensible enough
to discard the PROFESSIONAL chaff.
There are many sound book writ
ers and many sound PROFESSIONAL
thinkers. But it is not they who get
the billboard attention. They work
along, dimmed by the shoddy luster
of their more flamboyant fellows.
We have read and heard the
"queers s"-those fellows who write
and talk with an eye to the book re-
view pages, the lecture platforms and
the headlines.
And meanwhile the trade union
movement, composed of workers be-
reft of PROFESSIONAL theorizings,
schooled in the workshops, the mills
and the mines, has thought straight
and has come forth with the one
sound program of action.
1t is all too bad for the book writer's.
They get their fieeting sales and then
they are done until they get another
shell-shocked idea. 1t is likewise too
bad for the PROFESSIONAL saviors.
Brains, it seems, are not all in the
heads of those who go down the street
shouting, Behold US, for we have
brains!"

"Halcyon Days"

According to Greek mythology AL
syone, or Halcyone, the daughter Of
Aeolus, married Ceyx. Ceyx was
drowned and Alcyone, on learning his
fate, threw herself into the sea. The
gods were moved by the tragedy Of
the young lovers; they brought them
back to life in the form Of halcyons
or kingflshers, and they decreed that
for the seven days from December %
to December 90, the sea should re-
main calm while the seabirds built
their nests upon 1t. Those seven days,
the last Of the year, are therefore
called "halcyon days." days of tran
guilty. The term now IL used to con-
note any period of serenity.-Detroit

Clarence NJ Woolley, of the Amer

ate committee that when labor-saving
machinery comes, always one group
has paid the price-the workers"
He added that "the 5-day week has

7 GLIDING of the national
n amateur golf champion
L i ship over the Five Farms
course of Baltimore Coun-
try Club next September and the
work that already has been done
by the committeeman of the Bal
tlmore club on plans for the tour
nament bring to mind the fact
that although Washington is the
cenSer of great national celebra-
tion of the 200th anniversary of
George WaShington's birth, moth
ing was done by any committee
or any club to bring a national
golf event here during the Bicen-
tennial year.
For the first time in the history of
golf in this country the national anna
teur championship is to be played in
the East at club below the Mason and
Dixon line. and instead Of the tourna-
ment coming to Washington in the year
when 1t would become one of the great
attractions of a vast celebration center
ing in Washington, it is going instead
to neighborlng city 40 miles away
Washington golfers are glad that
Baltimore is to get the national, but
also they would like to have seen it
come to a club near Washington. Now
it appears likely that Washington will
get only the sectional qualification
rounds for the tourney, a minor side
show compared with the golf eXtrava-
ganza that will be put on at Baltimore
during the second week in September.
THERE are four or five golf courses
i around Washington which are
fitted by reason of their length
and general difficulty to be courses on
which national championships might
we'll be played On one of them-that
of Columbia Country Cuba national
already has been played. Columbia
staged the United States open in 1921,
back in the naive days before the
United States Golf Association put
championship golf in the box office
category.
Burning Tree, with a little-s very
little-trapping, might well be worthy
of a national championship Indian
Spring although lacking in club house
facilities for a major championship,
has a golf course which certainly meas
ures up to championship caliber. Con-
gressional, which has all the club house
any championship might need, also has
a golf course which, with a little new
construction and a general tightening
up. might take its place as a champion
ship layout, and there are other golf
courses around Washington which
would cause a little trouble for even
the finest Of contestants In the anna
teur championship.
D UT the chance is gone for several
u years at least. The custom of the
United States Golf Association is
to scatter the championships around
the country, so far as possible. giving

ALL FEEL VETERAN
WOULD HELP CLUB
Joe Holds Out Until Sure of
Chance to Get Regular
Playing Berth.
BY JOHN b. KELLER.

TOE JUDGE still remains a
great faVorite with Wash
~ ington'S base ball fans and
to man they are hoping he
will stick with the Nationals to
fight it out with Joe Kuhel for
the firSt-basing job.
Rumors that the veteran in
itial sack guardian will figure in
a trade before Washington starts
training at Biloxi are plentiful,
but followers Of the game here
feel that Judge would be of great
help to his club should he get into
his eighteenth campaign in a Ma
tional uniform.
That Judge will be around TO give
battle to the yOungster Kuhel, who took
over the first base post when the vet
eran was stricken by appendicitis last
May and held it after its former pos
SCISSOR r6gaincd playing condition, seems
to be pretty much up to Joe himself.
Both President Clark Griffith and
Manager Walter Johnson have an
nounCed repeatedly that Judge and
Kuhel would duel for the position dur
ing the training period in Mississippi
and before leaving for BiXOXi yesterday
Griffith again declared that first base
with the Nationals was an open JOB.
But Judge evidently thinks he has been
counted out as a player Tor ne mas
refused to consider the contract OF
fered him unless assured he Will get
full chance to prove his worth.
While Joe would prefer to remain
with the Washington club it would
not be as a benchWarmer. He wants
full value as a player during the few
years of base ball left in him, and
would welcome a change assuring him
of regular service in the field. AS
Judge sees it, any club as a player, but
with none as an inactive.
IUDGE has discussed his contract and
playing possibilities with President
Griffith only once this Winter.
That was some three weeks ago Joe
returned from Florida trip only last
Tuesday and since has not talked with
his boss
He knows no more than the average
fan of the Detroit trade rumor. He
wouldn't for heads of clubs attempt

Crs that might be involved Ethics of
the base ball business account for that.
Should there be trade brewing be-
tween Washington and Detroit with
Judge involved it probably would
break this week. 1t is rather common
knowledge that Manager Bucky Harris
Would like to get the veteran for his
Tigers and in time to take Joe along
with him when he leaves for the West

leaving town yesterday insisted the
clubs were not near any deal.
