There was almost as much discus
sion about Mrs Moody's default as
there was about the women's golf
championship. Almost every golfer
interviewed agreed that Mrs. Moody
had used poor iudgment-that she
had offset seven or eight years Of
success by this one mistake.
In many cases the feeling was
bitter against the former champion.
In others there was an element of
pity that she should have used such
bad judgment There was no one

woman stars. who agreed with her
sporting philosophy. The belief was
general that on that day Helen
Jacobs was the better tennis player
and deserved to win without any
flaw in her success.
This is the real angle. Regard
less of what happened, Helen Jacobs
is the real tennis champion of the
United States. She would have won
anyway. There should be more at
tention directed toward Helen Jacobs
than to Helen Wills Moody. She
had waited seven years for this one
chance. She made good. She came
through. She would have won any
way, for she was playing the better
tennis that day.
What more can you ask?

HOPE Of KEEPING

Fink Must Win Fourth Time

3O.-Winner of three of the

of Waterhouse, and two positions in

Fink Plans Appeal.
TINE disqualification in Saturdays
race, which swept II points over
the gunwales of Movie Star I'd,
was still subject of comment today.
While Herbert M. Dowsett. ST., chair
man Of the Racing Committee which
disqualified Fink, said so far as he was
concerned the action was now a closed
incident Fink continued to accumulate
evidence which he proposes 10 use in
an appeal to George Elder. president Of
the l. S. c. Y. A., at New York, in
event he does not retain his title.
He received a rousing cheer mingled
with the clamor of shrieking sirens and
fog horns of Coast Guard cutters and
pleasure yachts when he finished in
front yesterday-the first race since the
committees divided action.
As In his other triumphs of the series,
Fink sailed the Movie Star I'd across
the finish line by convincing margin.
His time for the 10l2-mile triangular
course in a moderate southwestern
breeze was l hour 81 minutes SO

TAXES FROM BEER
M|N|M|zED BY DRYS
Prohibition Foundation De-
cIares Revenue Is Falling
Below Estimate.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Federal revenue from 80 beer els
sharply disappointing to the brewers
and their political hackers" the Ameri-
can Business Mems Prohibition Founda-
ton said in statement yesterday.
From April 7 to the end of that
month beer taxes yielded $9,13S,863 and
the May figure was s11 ,536,026.
The statement continues:
This represents an average daily de-
crease in beer revenue for May as COM
pared to April of S8.658. and If this de-
cline should continue, even at the same
rate. the total revenue for the first II
months of re-legalized beer would fall
short of $136, 900 900.
"As an offset to this comparatively
small total when contrasted with the
billion dollar revenue claims of beer
spokesmen in the last Congress, there
should be taken into consideration the
fact that even SO small an amount OF
revenue reveals a beer consumption of
over 1925, coo barrels Of beer for April
and May.
This, at the rate Of 496 half-pint
stems per barrel, is equivalent to l,l03,-
GOO 900 glasses of beer, which at dime
glass would net the beer makers
$110 1850, 900 as the gross receipts OF
their first 55 days Of legal beer.
This represents simply more than
$110 900 900 taken out of the people
pockets and diverted from legitimate in
dustry, necessities and wholesome lux
uries to the beer trade"

BY the Associated Press.


WELLESLEY, Mass, June 27.-Dr.
Robert A. Millikan, one of Americas
foremost scientists, last night told the
New England Institute of International
Relations that II regard science as the
most effective and deadly foe Of war.
And think 1t is rapidly rendering war
obsolete"
DR.. Millikan, professor at the Cali
fornia Institute of Technology, said in
an address he did not believe disarma-
ment necessarily meant. peace, and
cited the comparative unpreparedness
OF the United States at the beginning
of its major conflicts.
The significant fact was,N he said,
that so long as conduct is dictated
solely by the emotions, 'the law of the
jungle must and will hold" The method
of science, he held, was rational in
stead Of emotional, and it was reason
alone that sharply differentiated man
from the brutes.
Asserting that science and its appli-
cation has changed the nature Of war"
DR.. Millikan added: They have rem.
dered 1t more destructive and enor-
mously more costly, so that, as the last
war showed, the advantages which the
victor formerly hoped to win from
war have disappeared.
Intelligent, rational beings cannot
fail to read the handwriting on the
wall, written there by science The
advance in science has sounded the
death-knen of war"
