He said that medical examination to
prevent spread Of disease should be
given, and disqualification and treat
ment furnished If necessary.
For the homeless men and boys WILL

advocated establishment Of camps along
military lines, where they could be
trained to become useful citizens. He
said these camps could contain on an
average from 500 to 600 occupants. Gen.
Glassford said he did not favor forcing
any one to enter such q camp, but
expressed the belief that worthwhile boys
and men would gladly enter them If
they were made sufficiently attractive.
He was questioned concering the prob
lem presented by transient girls, but
said he did not have sufiicient informa-
ton on this subject to testify.
Another witness, Arthur Flynn, field
secretary of the Salvation Army in the
Southern States, told the committee he
was afraid the transients would "lose
the work habit" and develop into a
menace to society for years to come. He
said he believed the number Of transit

fold in the last few years.
Gilbert s. Decker, Of the Salvation
Army here, said the facilities offered
by the Salvation Army In Washington,

REALTY MEN BEGIN
TECHNICAL STUDIES
National Association Opens
Winter Business Meet
ing Here.

Engrossed in many technical problems
associated with real estate appraising
as to values. the members of the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards opened their Winter business
meeting here today.
One Of the first subjects under dis
cussion was the effect any legislation
affecting the currency might have on
the cost Of real property The question
was discussed In a report submitted by
Ivan A. Thorson of Los Angeles.
The realtors also took up many other
technical problems connected with ap-
praising values of real estate, at a
round-table discussion held by members
Of the professional division.
Another thought advanced was that
property values In future years would
be affected by the slowing down of the
rate Of increase in the population of
the United States Some long distance
predictions ere that before the end of
the present century the population OF
the Nation will become practically
static

not always determine what Is a fair

The same general thought was ex-
pressed by Burton Thompson. Eliza

that 1T is the duty Of the appraiser
to discount present conditions; to de-
termine whether the general market is
normal. sluggish or inflated. and to cor

Values Are Merged.
Philip w. Kniskern of New York,
president of the Institute Of Appraisers,
opposed the practice followed by some
appraisers Of arriving separately at val
ues Of the land and the building Of an
improved parcel being appraised, with
o summation Of the two figures being
used as the total value.
The value and the earning power of
the building as well as the value and
earning power of the land are in
separately merged into the value and
earning power of the combination Of
land and building, so long as the build
ing exists, and cannot during that
period be taken or treated as separate
units, he held. a..
The appraisal experts at their an-day
session also heard an appraisal Of an
actual property, a two-story business

Eight Inning Duel

In was one of those games
that had anybody said boo. on
either side of you it would
have been cause for a nervous
collapse, so closely did the two
opening moundsmen do their
knitting. If there has been a
better pitchers duel out here
this season, then we must have
been fishing.
To sit there was like going
through birthstone and fire as
that pair turned the sides back,
inning after inning, with just a
hit here and a run yonder.
That Big Boy Ruffing was
sweating like Niagara Falls and
Stewart was left-handing them
in there with machine-like pre-
cision, striking out the likes of
Ruth and Gehrig, and Lazzeri
twice. Boy, was he right until

But it was then they got

singles and a walk and in that
he escaped with but one run.
Jack Russell was summoned to
the mound in the ninth, lest
Stewart let the game slip away
from him. AS matters turned

the game go, the Yankees tie
ing up the count on him as the
fans sat welded to their seats
in that bristling inning.

JAW AND CHIN
SPEAK FOR
WELSH

Barney Welsh, jr., Rockville'S
big Bill" Tilden, would never
think of boasting orally of his
superiority over any of his rivals,
but in the current Public Parks
tennis singles at Rock Greek
courts, his pugnacious jaw and
chin scream defiantly:
Bring 'em on. I'll take 'em!"
Welsh, frustrated for the past
two years in his attempt to gain
a singles championship, is facing
his grandest opportunity in the
present tournament and he knows
it.
However, he refuses to predict
his own victory by word of mouth.
What he has to say on the subject
is said with sizzling service,
whizzing drives and tantalizing
lobs or drop-shots which seem to
grin mockingly as they elude
breathlesS oponentS.
Becomes LOquaciOuS
Yesterday Barney was grimly
loquaciouS. His eloquence con-
sisted of a 90, 6-1 walloping he
handed to Gilbert Hunt, Washing
toms leading junior star. Now,
he is itching to continue his de-
vastating lecture against a semi
final foe.
Tony Latona, Frank Shore and
Gene Herman all join the quartet
with Barney. Latona easily con-
vinced Maurice O'Nefl that he was
a better tennis player right now,
but Shore and Hermann found
Charley Blanchard and Hugh
Trigg, their respective opponents,
inclined to dispute the fact bellig-
erently. Both were forced to
three sets.
Troubles Mrs. Martinez
Mrs. Ruth Martinez also had
trouble reminding Dorette Miller
of her superiority, winning after a
bitter struggle, 81, 2-6, 6-3.
Frances Walker and Mrs. Stone
took a long step toward the
women's doubles crown when they
eliminated Dorette Miller and Kay
Johnson, IS, 6-3.
Continued rain forced a post
ponement of today'S matches, but
all four divisions of the tourna-
ment are advancing satisfactorily
and the mems and women's
singles finals, which were planned
for Sunday, appear likely to go on
as per schedule.

British Win 2Net Titles From France
PERRY BEATS
COCHET IN
FIVE SETS
BY MICHAEL WILSON

AUTEUIL, France, July 28.-
The Davis Cup all but fell into
the lap Of England this after
noon when Henri Cochet, once
the unbeatable master Of inter
national tennis, went down to
a crushing defeat before Fred
Perry, of Britain. 80, Ga,
a6, 3-6, 81.
Cochet's almost totally unex-
pected defeat at the hands of the
young British player gave Eng
land a clean sweep for the day
with a score of 20. For earlier
in the day, Henry w. ("BunnyD
Austin, the brilliant British top
notcher, had made short work Of
Andre Merlin, Of France, 6-S,
Ga, 60.
The result was as expected, al
though some French experts had
hoped Merlin, youngest member Of
the defending French squad, would
put up a sterner battle.
In his first appearance in a
Davis Cup tournament, however,
the young protege of the i'm
mortal Lacoste found Austin far
too much for him.
Holder Of the Davis Cup for six
consecutive years, France entered
the challenge round today facing
her most difficult assignment
since she first outStripped the
United States in the historic tour
nament.
Remain FavOriteS
The French squad remained a
slight favorite despite Merlin's de-
cisive defeat, but his failure placed
virtually the entire burden on
Henri Cochet, fast becoming the
Grand Old Man" Of French
tennis. Cochet must now win both
his matches if France is to re-
tain the cup.
In the first set, Merlin fought
doggedly, but Austin's slashing re-
turns and his splendid service
gave him the set with ease.
The second set was spectacular.
Playing tight base-line tennis, the
Englishman ran up a 40 lead,
ana the high hopes that had been
placed in Merlin melted into thin
air.
Then came the surprise. The
plucky little French player pulled
into his game all the tricks that
Lacoste had taught him, and for
a few minutes the outcome was
in doubt.
But Austin finally took the
measure of Merlin and won the
set Ga.
Austin Off Form
HOW badly Merlin folded up
under the pressure Of the strenu-
Gus second set was shown by the
fact that Austin was nowhere
near the top of his form as the
match ended. He was frequently
inaccurate and lacked much of
his brilliance, but a love-victory
was easy nevertheless.
