What steps will be taken to remedy
this situation remain to be announced,
but It is known that Secretary Ickes,
the public works administrator, is i'm
patient about these delays. particular

Public works officials class these
outside interferences generally as:
Political efforts to cause uneco-
nomic expenditures; inefficient ap-
plications: dilatory tactics by recipi-
ents of funds In letting contracts; at
tempts Of contractors to avoid bond

failure Of many communities to find

SOFT GOALS CODE
NEAR COMPLETION
Administrator Hugh S. Johnson
Predicts Ratification Mat
ter Of Hours

Washington, Sept. 16-(P-Soft
Goals NRA code Saturday still lacked
final acceptance by operators Of this
basic industry. but Hugh 8. johnson
predicted ratification was only mat
ter Of hours.
The full text Of the code was on
paper. It had the approval of the In
dustry's committee of 1c leading pro-
ducers. But President Roosevelt's de-
sire to have the charter ready for sig
nature Friday night was blocked when
a three-hour meeting proved insuffi-
cient to obtain the endorsement Of
the individual operators and coal as
sociations represented on the commit
tee.
This needed ratification was expect
ed by Johnson early Saturday as di-
rectors of the Smokeless-Appalachian
Coal association and the Northern
Coal Control association gathered to
continue their study of the completed
code.
Numerous other code negotiations
In progress at recovery headquarters
virtually marked time as officials
concentrated on putting coal agree
ment before President Roosevelt.
Renewed pressure from President
Roosevelt to bring the negotiations to
q sudden end was indicated as john
son left for the white house to con-
fer with the chief executive.
Obviously angered at the continued
wrangling Of the coal operators over
wage contracts which blocked q final
agreement, the administrator intend
ed to lay the full situation before
Roosevelt with recommendation for
action.
There were strong indications that
unless the accord was reached at once
the disputing operators would be call
ed back to the white house for an
ultimatum from the president or else
that Roosevelt would take some other
definite course designed to end the
controversy and obtain the signatures
Of the coal magnates.

DUNLAP CRACKS PAR
AND COURSE RECORD
IN AMATEUR FINALE
Slim New Yorker Takes Over.
whelming 7-Up Lead Over
Max Marston

Kenwood Country Club, Cincinnati,
Sept. lG.-(P-Smashing the course
record with a-6e, three under par,
George T. Dunlap, Jr., 24-year-old
New Yorker, piled up an overwhelm-
ing margin Of Z up over Max r.
Marston. Philadelphia, veteran ex-
titleholder, Saturday in the first 18
holes OF their 36-hole match for the
U. S. amateur golf championship.
Dunlap shot one of the greatest
rounds in the history OF the Ameri-
can championship. Gray-haired vet
erans Of golf could not recall any,
thing like it since Bob Jones beat
Chick Evans In the final round at
Minikahda In 1927, when the great
Georgian carded 81 out and SO back
for a 81.
Dunlap never once was off the fair
way. He never missed green with
his approach, though he was once or
twice on the edge. He made only
one real mistake in the entire round.
That was when he three-putted and
lost the seventh hole.
Marston captured only two holes,
the seventh and eighth, and halved
only seven others.
Dunlap had four brides, most OF
them due to marvellous approaches,
one on the short 18th, where his tee
shot stopped Is inches from the cup.
Marston played some good golf at
times but he was wild off the tees,
and his accuracy with the irons fell
off under pressure.
Dunlap's score was stroke better
than the previous competitive course
record, 60, set In the qualifying round
by Jim Milward of Madison. Wis,
and equaled by Johnny Fischer Of
Cincinnati in establishing q new
qualifying mark.
A crowd that mounted to more
than $500 spectators by the time they
were coming down the stretch
gasped at Dunlaps shot making. The
slim, smiling young New Yorker was
on the same kind Of a scoring spree
he enjoyed in the Walker Cup
matches at Boston last year. This
was his first visit to the final round
Of the national title event. He
reached the British amateur semi
finals earlier this year.
Jones, who followed the entire
round, paid tribute to Dunlaps golf
as one Of the most brilliant rounds
he ever saw.
He had every shot in the bag and
he looked great" said Bob.

washington. Sept. 16.-(Pp-Th h
farm adjustment administration an
nounced Saturday that an additional
quota of l,922,000 pigs would be pur-
chased in the emergency hog reduc-
ton campaign which ends Sept. %.
The original maximum in the cam
paign was 100000 pigs ranging in
weight from Is to 100 pounds. The
quota also included 100000 farrow-
ing sows.
DR.. A. G. Black, chief Of the hog
production section, said the quota on
sows would not be raised.
Unusually heavy shipment of pigs,
On which the government is paying a
premium, caused the decision to raise
the original quota by almost 1000, 900.
The additional pigs also, Black said,
will help to compensate for the fact
that 100000 sows will not be ship
ped to market by farmers.
Sow shipments have been small In
comparison with the shipments Of
pigs. Black said the sale of sows
would be only several hundred thou
