In lining up the swing, taking the club back In the back-swing and part of the down-swing, tho good golfer has his eyes riveted on the ball. But after the first part of the down. .swing according to observers, the player doesn't notice the ball.
 He doesn't look up, however, and in that lies the reason for a good shot. He keeps his head down and. in so doing, brings the clubhend down through the correct hitting sector and smacks the ball on tho nose.
 Keep the body bont and the head down until tho swing has been completed through the ball. If the head is raised the stroke probably will result in Q topped shot.

Dad had been living in that
store or barnyard all his days,
and his dad before him. Far
as they were concerned the rest
Of the world didn't exist.
Yes, of course, they talked
about other places. Sitting in
front of the livery stable, loung-

discussed famine in India, up.

White House. But it was only
talk. Too far away to be any,
thing else.
Suppose a few thousands Of
Hindoos did die, or a few hun
dreds of IriShmen crack each
others skulls? Suppose, even,
that a couple of Senators raised
a red-hot rowdy-dow back in
Congress? What did that mean
to Browns Corners? How did
that affect AL Timson's roofing
contract, or old Grandma Will
sons life insurance?
Did not affect things at all.
Might as well have happened
on the moon. All the rest of
the world was days away;
weeks; years. Like a high wall
that would never come down,
Time and Space raised their bar

We Need
Leadership
Lost Confidence
Brought the Panic

We have shown that such
is the elasticity Of our gov
ernmental forms that when
an emergency demands, the
Executive can be armed
with unusual powers-and
without any compromising
of our democratic principles.
In other words, that a de-
mocracy can wage war un-
der leadership even against
a depression.
Without these unusual
powers not normally needed
nor exercised American de-
mocracy would be dis
credited and would have to
give way to a different gov
ernmental concept-a real
dictatorship, with liberties
and human rights brushed
aside, sustained by bayo-
nets.
In the 'absence of an
authoritative and decisive
leadership we were headed
straight for a Dictatorship
either of the communistic or
the fascist order. Speaker
Rainey was right when he
said that unless the neces-
sary power for action is en-
trusted to the President
under existing conditions
we shall open the way for
some such experiment as is
now in process in Germany.

THE report from Amerl-
can diplomatic and con-
sular representatives in Ger
many to Secretary Hull, on
the attitude of the existing
government there toward
the Jews, sets forth that
attacks were made upon
them, but that the govern
ment, much concerned, has
ordered the ending Of the
outrages. No governmental
regime is strong enough to
welcome a universal protest
against its policies.
Meanwhile, Americans,
among some industrialists
and intellectuals, who have
been contemptuous of the
processes of democracy and
insistent on the need Of die
tatorship and a bsolut
autocracy here, are having
an opportunity to pass upon
their governmental ideal.
For Germany is under an
absolute dictator.
Hindenburg is now a mere
figurehead, apparently weary
of the long struggle at his
age and glad to be denied
responsibility.
With a few complaining
of "dictatorial powers"
given President Roosevelt to
meet a grave emergency of
an economic nature, it is in
teresting to find what a real
dictatorship, won by armed
men really means. 1t means
something quite different
from anything that anyone
proposes to give the Ameri-
can President.
The Washington times., 1933-03-30
Illustration of
Real Dictatorship

One of the plans of Hitler
is completely to suppress all
political opposition to the
government. If we had a
real dictatorship in this
country it would mean, by
the Hitler standard, the
suppression of all Republic
an opposition in Congress,
and out, to the Admins
tration; the refusal Of the
public platform to represent
atives Of all parties but that
of the President.
Of course, no such thing
would be tolerable or possi-
BILE in this country.
In furtherance of that
plan, the Hitler regime pro-
poses to end the freedom
of the press and the liberty
of speech, thereby outlaw
ing all criticism Of any
governmental act.
That, Of course, would be
impossible in this country
unless there is an incon-
ceivable change in public
sentiment.
To make easy the suppress
sion of all criticism, the die
tatorship in Germany pro-
poses to suspend all consti-
tutional guarantees of per-
sonal liberty. This means
that your home and mine,
if in Germany, may be
broken into and searched
at any time without war
rant and even without
charges.
That is a real autocracy
or dictatorship - something
rather remote from any
thing that has been asked
for the President here.

Lost Confidence
Brought the Panic
The extraordinary powers
call them dictatorial if
you will-which have been
given the President here are
granted under the forms of
our democracy. Powers as
great or greater have been
given Presidents in a crisis
in other times. They al
ways are exercised by the
head of the nation in days
of battle.
And today we are engaged
in a greater war against a
more dangerous enemy than
we have ever known before.
The need was forced upon
us by the utter lack of
courageous leadership and
initiative in governmental,
business and financial fields.
For three years no one quail
fled for leadership, no one
stood out and assumed re-
sponsibility, everyone waited
for someone else to assume
the burdens.
And the result was that
no one assumed the burdens.
And the result Of that was
that our drift toward the
abyss was gaining in mo-
mentum.
And the result OF that was
that everyone lost conf
dence in everything. And
that brought the panic.
The assumption Of ex-
traordinary powers under
grants voluntarily given the
President under the forms
of our democracy has re-
stored confidence and re-
suited in great achievements.
But no one proposes to
suspend constitutional guar
antees of personal liberty,
to bar the way to the pub
lie platform, to make criti-
cism of governmental activ-
ity a crime, to establish
concentration camps for the
confinement of thousands of
political opponents.
