MATCH ON EARLY
GOLF CLUB SLATE

The tournament committee of the
Redwood Falls Golf club is making
preparations for the annual presi-
dents handicap match which will be
staged within the next three weeks.
Much stress is being placed on the
tourney by members of the committee
who consider it the most fair tourna-
ment of the season because it gives
the poor golfer the same chance as
his superior.
Each golfer is to turn in ten score
cards before the match which will be
averaged and handicaps arranged.
James Inglis won the cup last year.
The president of the club, R. V.

LESS PRESSING
ON ROOSEVELT
Set to Renew Demands When
Congress Meets; President
Seen in Doubt
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES
International News Service


The pressure that has been di-
rected at President Roosevelt for
currency initiation has relaxed
somewhat in the past week, but is
expected to be renewed again as
Southern and western producers
confront rising retail prices under
the operation Of the NRA codes.
Organized labor has taken its
stand along with powerful finan-
cial interests against initiation.
President William Green, in his
speech to the A. F. Of L. Conven-
ton. declared labor would stand
unflinchingly against initiation"
Labor is against initiation he
said, because under any initiation
ary system wages do not rise apaCs
with living costs.
Labor Capital Link
For the moment, the anti,infla.
tionists seem to have the upper
hand, with labor and "hig capi-
tai" on their side. However, the
battle will be renewed before
lonP, certainly not later than the
reopening of Congress and many
observers believe it will be bitter
one.
President Roosevelt has been
repeatedly urged in the past few
weeks to make a declaration Of
what he plans to do with the dol
lar and the discretionary initiation
powers given him by the last
Congress.
Bankers and big industrialistS
have joined in privately urging
him to announce a policy that
will be reassuring to the business
interests.
Business Men Anxious
They have told him that uncer.
tainty as to where the dollar will
be so days or 80 days hence is
retarding business recovery, as
business is chary of making COM
mitments.
Hundreds of letters have been
received at the White House along
this line in the past few weeks,
and these have been supplemented
by personal appeals to Mr.. Roose-
velt.
Thus far the President has de.
clined to commit himself, although
he has discussed the situation at
length with his advisers. The be-
lief is prevalent in Washington
that Mr.. Roosevelt has not yet
made up his mind, and that he
wants to watch the further oper-
alton of the new recovery legisla.
ton before determining a course.
