An English Heavyweight.

II NGLAND today at last holds her
r. own open golf cup-her tennis
crown-the Davis Cup-she pro-
duced a horse named Cavalcade
British bred)-she has runner who
can stop Bill Bonthron-She has her
leading rowing titles-what about a
British heavyweight to wipe out the
somewhat sour memories of her re-
cent heavies?
I'D give a lot to see England dig up
a good heavyweight challenger be-
fore I am through" Max Baer said
recently. "There'd be a million
dollar gate to shoot at"
II Great Britain can scramble back
around the top in so many other
fields, there's no reason why she
shouldn't locate the missing link in
this trade.
Her heavyweight crop for 80 years
has been a complete failure. Bob
Fitzs.mmons of Cornwall and Aus
tralia was her last big fighter, but few
countries have turned out many bet
ter than Jimmy Wilde, Freddie Welsh,
Owen Moran and others who knew
what to do about it.
But, sooner or later, the unfragrant
memories of Joe Beckett, Bombardier
Wells and Phil Scott will have to be
wiped out by q Peterson or some one
else who can fall In back Of Perry,

Reach Third Only Once.

TUST seven safeties sprang from
II Washington bats, and these were
spread over five innings. Only once
during the pastirning was q National
able to reach third base. That was
in the third inning. when Gill doubled
and Manush and Travis walked. But
two were out and Schultie's best was
. ny to the right fielder.
Before that the White Soy had
reeled of three runs. With singles by
Swanson, Simmons and Bonura and a
double by Appling, two tallies were
registered in the first frame. Singles
by Madjeski and Swanson, with Earn
shaw's sacrifice sandwiched between.
accounted for a second session score.
And in the third Bonura's single and
Appling's double got the last run of
the game.
So the Nationals took it on their
chins for the second successive time
from the tail-end club of the league
Nothing could be done about it by a

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn

If you are troubled with corns or cal
louses, do not run the risk Of blood
poison by pairing them. Statistics show
that many infections have occurred from
this seemingly innocent practice of par
ing corns.
Simply go to your druggist and get a
few cents worth of Ice Mint, rub a lit
tie on any painful corn or callous I'm,
mediately the pain will disappear and
in a short time the corn or callous will
loosen and lift off easily with the fin
gers-root and all-leaving the sur
rounding skin in a healthy normal con-
dition.
This, together with the fact that Ice
Mint overcomes such affections as sore,
tired, aching. puffed or burning feet and
makes them cool, easy and comfortable,
is proba bly, responsible for the hearty
endorsement given it by druggists.
To rid ones feet of every hard corn,
soft corn. corn between the toes or pain
full callouses in such pleasant and safe
way, makes it seem the height Of folly
for anyone to pare a corn and people
are warned 20 stop it.

NEW DEAL UNITS
BEGINNING To
!. TIGHTEN Up
BY DUNCAN FORSYTH


Order is being brought ous Of
the chaos in the emergency or.
ganizations created under the
''New Deal" and as changes are
made in their structure, these or
ganizatfons are taking on more
and more the aspect of traditional
Civil Service agencies.
Two developments in the last "a
hours bear out this point. In the
NRA, a general tightening up is
under way, with prospects that the
more or less ornamental jobs are
doomed to disappear and that the
standards of efficiency in effect in
regular Federal agencies will be
followed out in this spectacular
emergency unit.
Pay Return Dubious
Meanwhile, Secretary of the In
Eerior Harold L. IckeS announces
that PWA employees, whose status
with respect to classification and
pay restoration has been some
what dubious, will probably not
receive retroactive pay increases
as Of February i, but will share
in the general 5 per cent increase
effective July /.
An executive order, it is under
stood, will be necessary to make
this possible. If and when such
an order is issued, it may be made
applicable to other emergency
units, specifically the Home Own.
ers' Loan Corporation, where
classification was, as in the PWA,
completed late, and no marked
changes were mede in the salaries
actually paid.
It is interesting to note that the
experience of these agencies has
tended to confirm the view of
friends of the Civil Service that
the classification system is of the
utmost Importance in the Govern
ment service. In the emergency
units, as a rule, there was, at the
start, a tendency to throw over
board all Civil Service practice, on
the assumption that it amounted
merely to lot of red tape.
Need Seen
The AAA and IVA did not make
this mistake, and as a result they
have probably had fewer person
mel problems. than the rest. NRA
found the need for classification
fairly early in the game and was
the first to complete the process.
There were delays in PWA and
Hole, among others, and the clas-
Sification was not completed in
either Of these units by the date
get, March IS.
Consequently questions have
arisen as to pay restoration, and
the forthcoming executive order
forecast by Secretary Ickes will
possibly set some of these at rest.
NRA's Tightening up process
will merge stenographic pools,
mail and filing forces. and eco
nomic and research Staffs, and
there is every indication that a cut
in personnel is in prospect.
