A rev years ago, before the finan-
cial scandals made them run for coy-
or. ono OF the favorite pastimcs Of
Americas Bourbons was to see 4
Red" behind every bush. a commun-
ist on every street corner.
The nation spent considerable
money unearthing terrible plots and
alleged facts In an effort to take the
mind OF the people off the main
thing. There was time when a good
Red" hunt, II the people could have
been properly excited. would have
served the purpose Of d1tracting at
tcntion from many In high places.
Most notable among the investiga-
lions OF Communist activities was that
conducted by . congressional commit
tee with Hamilton Fish OF New York
as chairman. And one OF Fists most
vigorous aides In this hunt for trou-
bic was John Edward Nelson, con-
gresham from Maine. Everyone with
two days growth OF beard was q Red
radical to Nelson. An innocent pack
age under an arm easily was turned
into q bomb In his imagination.
The sequel TO 1t all came the other
day In . raid made by Washington po-
licc to pick up radical agitators. Pres
idcnt Roosevelt issued . statement
against It but the police acted any
way. Several were arrested.
Among them was one Margaret
Nelson. She happened to be the
daughter Of the red batting congress-
man.

During the last month there has
been something worse than bank fall

President Roosevelt does not ex-

WEIGHT ON HEELS AIDS
PROPER STROKE

KEEp the weight back on the
~ heels is the advice handed out by
Macdonald Smith. This allows the
body to turn just enough to prevent
retarding the arm movement as the
cubhead Is swept down and through
with the arms. The shoulders are
held back instead OF coming around
to the left running control and power.
To Offset too rigid legs in this posi-
tion the knees should be bent slight
ly. A slight give here also keeps
the golfer from STOPPING ever too far
A fault of golfers In general Is that
they bend forward too far with the
weight on the toes, a position In which
1t Is difficult to pivot properly. One
reason for this Is that the ball Is
often too far away, necessitating
