HOUSE PASSES
RELIEF BILL

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30. U.p
The house today passed the
La Guardia- -McKeOwn bank
rrptcy bill, designed TO bring re-
lief to hare pressed individual
debtors and authorizing speedy
reorganization for many great
corporations faced with receiver
ships.
The vote was, ayes 2Ol; noes
43.
The bill would allow any class
of debtor from the small farm
er to the largest railroad to go
before the federal courts for re-
lief. With the approval of spe-
Gifted majorities of their cred
itors and the court, the indivI-
dual or the corporation could
scale down, postpone, or wipe
out debts.
The original draft of the
measure has now been so mOdi-
fled as to allow the courts to
grant an extension of debt pay
ments to a hard pressed indi-
vidual whether his creditor ap-
proved or not, providing the
procedure did not impair the
validities of just claims.
The bill directly affects every
debtor staggering under unpay-
able burdens. II is designed to
bring relief 10 the jobless la
borer unable to meet payments
on an installment- bought radio;
to the great corporation unable
to meet its obligations; to a rail-
road faced with impossible re-
financing operations. .-.

SANTA MONICA, Jan. 90.
(To the Editor of The Press0
The British ambassador is a
mighty popular man, guest of
the senate, guest of the Presi-
dent that's on deck waiting to
go to bat. The poor French
ambassador, you can't help but
feel kinder sorry for him, he
is still in the dog house. A
senator named Tydings the
other day introduced a bill
where the government didn't
appropriate more than was
coming in, that is if you didn't
have any money you could not
dole out any. Well the senate
like to moved him, they called
the idea treason, sacriligious,
inhuman and taking the last
vestige of power from a poll
tician, that is the right to ap-
proprate your money which you
don't have.
Yours,

Providence when she visited
British shores. Three times she
was within sight Of her goal:
twice Joyce Wethered with o
"They shall not pass" light in
her eyes, kept the historic old
cup for John Bull, and these are
the matches that Glenna remeIn-
bers as she Strolls back along the
fairways:
Speaking of Joyce. Glenna
deals only in superlatives:
"Miss Wethered is the finest
woman golfer in the world; as
q stylist she is as fine as
Jones, with the unruffled calm
of Walter Hagen, the conf
dence of Gene Sarazen and
the fighting spirit Of Jess
Sweetser."
The first time these two met
empress and queen, respectively
was at Troon in 1925 in the third
round. The scoring that day
would have done credit to o pair
of star professionals. Glenna was
one over par for Is holes, so she
only lost 4 and 3 to Joyce, who
had even as for the same dis
lance. It was four years before
they claShed again, in 1929 at
st. Andrews in the final round.
Even today Glenna hasn't quite
come out Of her daze over what
happened by the old North Sea:
tho record books show she was
beaten by 8 and l even with q
81 for the first nine.
Flshwick Blocks Path
To Qlenna'S credit it must be
recorded that she went back the
next year. but Joyce had retired
from competition, and once again
Glenna's goal was in sight. But
fate had yet to deal her last
cruel blow. In the final against
Diana Fishwick. Glenna's game
went to pieces completely: and
so for the last time she dreamed
the dream that never came true.
Tt wasn't in the cards for her
to become he first American
wearer Of the British crown.
In days to come 1t Is entirely
possible that this country will
produce a greater woman golfer
than Glenna Collect Ware. Times
change; things happen. She
played in her first tournament
in 1919 when she scored lot in
the women's Eastern champion
ship at Apawamis. Three years
later she won the national cham
pionship! Top that II you can.
She always attributed whatever
success she had to the late Alex
Smith. the veteran with a tongue
Of fire and q heart Of gold, who
stormed and rallied at Glenna un.
til she won her first title at White
Sulphur Springs that Saturday in
1922. Her banner year was really
1924, for she played more than 80
matches and lost only one. But
that one was in the national at
Rhode Island. where Mary K.
Browne, the tennis star. ran down
. 20:footer to win at the nine.
That ~ thA way. was another
