NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS."
That's the expression unanimous
ly used by the people charged with
rescuing us from the depression
when anyone becomes exuberant
on the theory that permanent re-
covery already has begun.
It's one of the most remark
able phenomena of the New Deal
administration. Roosevelt at his
press conferences cautiously admits
a little encouragement, but ex-
presses himself in hopes" Secre-
tary of Labor Frances Perkins an
nounces a relatively large jump in
employment and payrolls, but
warns 1t isn't enough to keep pro-
duction increasing. In dustrial Re-
covery Administrator Hugh john
son privately warns that there
may be a serious crash unless a
more solid foundation is built for
prosperity. other officials private
ly or publicly echo the thought.
Still Experimental"
The big sections of the recovery
program are still spoken Of as
Experimental" Nobody processes
to assume that they're sure to sue
coed. Everyone deprecates the i'm
portance of the recent rise in in
dustrial production, commodity and
securities prices, insisting that
there's no evidence for any solid
base for such improvement beyond
the general belief that great at
tempt is to be made to build that
base.
The attitude Is directly opposite
that of the previous administration
that confidence could be restored
by ballyhoo.
Facing Facts.
OF course Roosevelt and his
people have profited by and are
anxious not to make the same mis-
take.
They fear that recent improve
ments, which may be largely the
result of imitation fear, will dim
the country's realization Of emer-
gency and they don't be gleeful
even among themselves until they
know that there has been a large
increase in purchasing power.

A Book a Day
by BRUCE CATION
Holds World War
Is Not Yet Ended

The tragic establishment and
confusion of world which gives
it's life blood to get to a mountain
peak and look into the promised
land and then found that the
promised land was only mirage
is forcefully described in George
Seldes' new book, world Panor-
anna, 191S-1933."
Mr. Seldes reminds us that
Armistice Day, 1918, gave us all
the impression that a brave new
world was to be created. The war
to end war had been fought and
won. Democracy was made safe,
militarism was crushed, freedom
and justice were to reign hence
forth. The unparalleled sacrihces
Of the war were to be fully re-
warded.
But 1t didn't happen, and MI
Seldes shows how and why
woodrow Wilson took the worlds
hopes on his shoulders and got
tripped up at Versailles and the
brave new world vanished. The
dream of enduring peace was ex-
posed as a dream and nothing
more. Strictly speaking, says MI
Seldes, the war has not ended
even yet; 1918 brought only. a
breathing spell; the struggle is
still going on, insanely, cruelty
disastrously.
Today, he says, the world Is
about to try anew to make peace.
And the man of the hour right
now is President Roosevelt. He
stands where Wilson stood In
1918, bearing the worlds hopes,
Will he succeed?
This is striking. illuminating
book. It's not very hopeful, but
it's very much worth re .Aing.

course making money. No, it's not for sale.

so far this year, with the course only open
two months, it has taken in enough money
to pay back temporary loan of $500
from the city. That leaves the course with
ba.ance of $500. At this rate the city
hopes to realize at least $4,000 on the
municipal links in 1888. That's fair re-
turn, we should say on the original invest
ment. As rule municipal courses are good
investments. We remember pointing out this
fact when Waterbury contemplated build
ing one. We don't think the city will ever

Kerry Gaels Take Football
Pennant Home With Them

Editor Waterbury Democrat:
Dear Sir:
These lines are dedicated to the
Kerry Gaels who have taken back
to their native land the interna-
tional prize as the worlds holders
of that great field sport-football.
Fifty thousand fans cheered the
boys from Ireland on to victory
at the Yankee Stadium last Sunday
where the sunlight of triumph or
the shades OF defeat rested on the
shoulders Of the opposing teams.
The laure1s they brought from
the green hills of Kerry,
Were shielded unstained in the
stadium field.
T h g strides Of endurance, OF
strength and muscle,
Were shown to the world what
Kerry can yield.
Let us give to their presence fond.
cherished greeting
Mixed up with n prayer and n
glad Irish smile;
May their FOOT steps be guided by
Gods holy meeting
Till they step once again on the
Emerald Isle.
AS the sphere swiftly flew fore the
gaze Of the masses
Twas the rallies of Kerry that
pictured the fray;
Their manly achievements can find
no SURPRISES
Those athletes from Ireland -
our guests here today.
Long may their worth be admired
as trophy,
May their acts of display be un-
blemished and free,
Till they grasp the glad hands of
homeland admirers
And rest with their honors again
in Tralee,
Their strides once again fill n green
space in history
And add to the pages of Ire
lands just claims.
In the sunlight OF triumph or the
dark shades of story
May their footsteps guide on to
emblazon their names.
Today in old Ireland I can picture
the yearning
or thousands who are waiting
with hearts light and free,
With all the glad cheer that will
make their returning
The greatest of honors to their
homes round Tralee.

ON MARS

Scientists on the West Coast have
recently told the public that life
as we know 1t is impossible upon
Mars. Writers Of fiction have
peopled 1t to their hearts desire,
generally with being thoroughly
malignant and hostile, but with in
tellects superior to that Of man.
Generally such novelists have given
Mars an assortment of creatures
that incline the reader to thankful
ness that there are no means for

Ind usrial Notes
You've been hearing about how
the pretzel business has turned
the corner. Well, there's a boom
in the sandwich industry, too.
With beer as an aid to the eat-it-
and-beat-it counters around town,
more than a quarter-million
ready-made sandwiches are con-
sumed every day.
These are prepared the night
| before so they will be fresh each
morning. Machines slice the bread,
of course, but the rest of the proc
| cess is hand labor. organized for
efficiency. Specialists in the craft
include butterers, who slap on just
a suggestion of lubricant; assem-
blers, who put on the jelly, cheese
or meat; second-bread men, or
trimmers, who put on the tops;
and wrappers, who deftly flip the
sandwiches into oiled paper.
| The man mainly responsible for
all this was William Cantor, who
owned a restaurant off Broadway
about fifteen years ago. Business
was so slack he was facing ruin,
and one idle day he made up some
sandwiches and offered them to n
nearby drug store. They sold, and
| Cantor solicited more drug stores.
Finally he had to get rid of his
restaurant, hire crew of sales
men, train sandwich makers. buy
three trucks and establish a fac
tory. Even then he couldn't
handle all the business, SO now
there are about six other concerns

VXIASHINGTON is an unusual town
w in the professional golf world.
Around the larger CenterS OF
the game. notably New York and Chi
cago, golf professionals change their
clothing change. Many clubs have
new pro every year or two but around
Washington the prOs stay on the job
for continuity of service gives better
service to their members. What finer
testimony could any one want than the
81 years of continuous service which
Fred Mcleod has given at Columbia, the
10 years of Dave Thomson at Washing
ton or the like tenure of service which
Bob Barnett has had at Chevy Chase?
All of these men not only have proved
themselves good teachers and players,
but as their knowledge Of the games Of
their members increases they are
thereby of greater value to their clubs.
Constant changes in the professional
staff at golf club do not help the club
or the game or the golfers. The COM
parative newcomers to the professional
staffs around Washington are Cliff
Spencer at Beaver Dam, Tom Hudgins
at Woodmont and Danny Burton at
Army-Navy, and it appears that all
these men will be at their posts next
year. AS for Mcleod. Thomson and

BY w. r. McCALLUM.

THERE will not be many
changes in the professional
i ranks at golf clubs about
Washington this year. The
only change which is in sight
is at the Congressional Country
Club, where Sandy Armour, vet
eran Scottish pro, is due to leave
on January 1, when his contract
expires. At the other clubs the
same professionals who have held
down their posts for years-moSt
of 'em-Will remain.
Henry j. Richardson, chairman OF the
Congressional Golf Committee, has an
imposing batch of applications for the
Congressional post, but no action has
been taken and probably nothing will
be done until the annual meeting OF
the club, scheduled for the middle OF
January. A number of professionals
whose names loom big in competitive
scoring in the game have applied for
the Congressional post, among them
Bill Melhon, Roland R. Mackenzie,
Ralph Guldahl, Bat Doyle, Gene Nc
Carthy, Gene Larkin and many others.
When the name of the new professional
is announced it will probably come as a
surprise to many. One we'll known pro
has the inside track. The job has been
offered to him and it is up to him to ac-
cept or reject it.
