NEE-GARD|NER
TOOPPOSE
CHAMPS
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

~ ~ANASOAS AAs SAA'A1 SOAN
Holders of the Cummings
Trophy for a long spell, Donald
Woodward and Miller B. Stevinson
face their most serious threat in
Maury Nee and Algy Gardiner, ST.
The Cummings Trophy, donated
by Andrew ]. ICY" Cummings, is
emblematic of the two-man team
golf championship Of the Column
bia Country Club and is highly
priced. Interest has been height
ened among the membership and
q good deal of banter flows twixt
defenders and challengers.
The youthful Nee and the eld-
erly Gardiner hurled a defy at the
WoodWard-StevinSon combination,
adding a few taunts in order that
their challenge could hardly go
unanswered. So the match takes
place tomorrow and the members
are eagerly anticipating the out
come.
Nee Is YOungSter
Uniquely, Nee is a year or two
younger than his partners son,
Algy, Jr., and perhaps the forces
OF youth and age can break the
monopoly that MesSrs. Woodward
and STEVENSON have exercised for
years over the trophy.
Second in Importance to this
match tomorrow will be the mixed
Scotch foursome which was post
poned from Sunday due to rain.
Approximately 20 pairs are ex-
pected to participate in this tour
ney.
Far down the list with 36-hole
total of 154, AL Houghton, Ken
wood pro, must turn in near par
rounds today to declare himself |
in on the purse for the Canadian |
Open at Toronto, Canada. The |
final SO holes were being played |
today and Houghton, II strokes
to the rear of the pace-setter,
Tommy Armour, was headed by
20 others.
Mrs. E. M. McClelland and Mrs.
D. w. Bell, each with net IT'S, tied
for first in the women's blind
bogey at Manor yesterday. Mrs.
j. E. Nell and Mrs. L. G. Pray,
with net 74's, tied for third. Mrs.
Pray shot a 38, two over mems
par, for the first nine, despite
taking a on the par ninth hole,
where she pushed her fourth shot
into the trap. Mrs. J. F.. Ebert was
the winner of the tourney on the
inside nine with 40.
Tom Denell, member of the
Montgomery county police force,
went about his duties with gusto
today, after scoring a hole in
one on the 17th, 1853 yards, at the
Kenwood Country Club yesterday.
His tee shot struck the top Of the
trap, bounded on to the green, and
then trickled into the cup. Denell
was playing with Bob Phillips, Leo
Walper and Jim McAuliffe. !

QUINTUPLETS GIVEN
GOOD CHANCE TOLIVE
Doctor More Optimistic Than Be
fore-Parents Sign for
World Fair.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CORBEIL. Ontario. June 2-The
Dionne quintuplets continued to
thrive today, ignorant of all the fuss
that's being made about them.
DR.. A. r. Dafoe, the country ply
sician who is attending the famous
5-day-old sisters, said they had a
good chance TO live, but that he
doesn't guarantee anything"
Il feel more optimistic than at
any time since their birth. he added.
If the babies live and are well
they'll be at the Worlds Fair. for
their father, Ovila Dionne young
French-Canadian farmer, has signed
a contract to bring the quintupletS
and Mrs. Dionne TO Chicago.
The Dionnes are to receive $3.50
a week and 80 per cent of the gate
receiL<. In addition, Dionne will get
weekly salary of $l00, beginning
Immediately. He has hopes of lift
ing the mortgage on his farm soon.
Every medical attention is being
lavished upon the little tots in the
humble home which they share with
five older brothers and sisters.
While gifts of money and clothing
continue to come in, the Propatria
branch of the British Empire Service
League at Victoria made a unique
suggestion for the quintuplets' edu-
cation. 1t proposed that each Ca
madam give 10 cents to a fund to
be used to instill anti-war doctrines
in the children.

CONGRESS APPLAUDS VIEWS.
Roosevelt Message Opposes War Debt
legislation.

Congress applauded yesterday Pres
ident Roosevelt's declaration opposing
any legislation on war debts at this
session and reiterating American will
ingness to hear the pleas of debtor
nations for revision of their payment
schedules.
All factions found Mr.. Roosevelt's
views to their liking All commended
the tone of the message and expressed
the opinion that it reflected the sem
timent of the American people
Among the leaders who are working
to bring about an early adjournment
there was general belief that no new
legislation was requested
Mr.. Roosevelt reviewed the entire
debt question, asserting emphatically
the view that the people of the Ma
ton expected the debtor countries to
make determined effort to meet the
obligations arising from America S
war loans to them.
His statement that no legislation
on debts was necessary was construed
to mean that the recently concluded
and revised funding agreement with
Finland, the only foreign government
which has met all payments on its
Indebtedness punctually and in full,
would not be sent to the Senate for
ratification this session.
The President indicated a belief
that settlement Of the war debts ques-
tion would be beneficial by state
ment that the question of repayment
has gravely complicated our trade
and financial relationships with the
borrowing nations for many years"

EXCHANGE PROMISES AID.

NEW YORK, June 2 (P).-Richard
Whitney, president of the New York
Stock Exchange. in a statement issued
yesterday, said the Exchange in
tends to do everything in its power" to
cooperate in the administration of
the national securities exchange act
approved by Congress.
Although it still contains provisions
that may prove impracticable. l am
truly hopeful that if wisely and judi
ciouSly administered the act will be a
constructive measure" he declared.
He pointed out that the measure ap-
proved by the Senate differed in i'm
portant respects from the original
Fletcher -Rayburn bill.
The New York Stock Exchange .
he explained, opposed the original bill
I because it contained rigid and in
flexible provisions which would have
proved unworkable in practice.
Many of these Objectionable fea-
lures have been eliminated. The
present act creates a new administra-
tive commission of five persons to be
appointed by the President and gives
this commission broad powers to pro-
tect investors and prevent unfair
practices in the security markets OF
the country. The Exchange has al
ways advocated these fundamental
purposes of the act"
Meanwhile, June l brought numer-
Gus changes around brokerage houses
as firms cut personnel and adopted
other expedients to adjust their over
, head to the current slow trading in
security markets. A

CHEST TO SPONSOR
open HOUSE DAYS
Plans to ACquaint Public
With Work of Various
Agencies.

Plans for publicizing activities OF
Community Chest agencies through a
series of open house programs during
the Summer were discussed yesterday
at a meeting of the Publicity Com
mittee of the Chest.
Lawrence E. Rubel, chairman,
pointed out that if more people could
be brought into closer contact with
the actual work of the agencies by
flrSt-hand observation. there would
be less need for intensive campaign
ing at the time for fund solicitation.
He proposed that such institutions
as lend themselves readily to vista
tion-the Children's Country Home,
Friendship House, Neighborhood
House, Camp Good Will and Camp
Pleasant and various orphanages-
hold receptions for the public during
the next few months. Special pro-
grams might be arranged. he said.
The suggestion was received favor
ably by representatives of a number
of the agencies and RubeI said he
will appoint a committee to arrange
the open house series.
HeIoeII L. WnllleLt, lr, new dl-
rector Of the Chest, stressed the i'm
portance Of publicity in educating the
public to the vital nature of Chest
work
w. W. Wheeler, director of Chest
oratory, told of the success with which
the speech clinics" conducted at the
several agencies lave been held. The
next clinic he said will no az St
Vincent's Home and School, June IA.
Chairman Hubel said if people can
be induced to inspect the agencies in
a personal visit. they Will be their
own Chest crusaders" He outlined
plans for giving wide publicity to the
open house programs through the
group solicitation unit. Government
key men, special letters Of invitation,
over the radio and in the press.
Each agency will be requested 70

ceding three years. provided this was
not more than rs per cent of the cur
rent price
Prohibitions will be contained in
the law against manipulative oper-
ations, and the commission will have
power to require full financial reports
from corporations listing securities
Byrnes, in his statement to the
Senate, listed the following modifca-
t1onS of the securities law. which he
said would protect honest business
men:
An officer or director of a corpora
ton could not be sued for damages
resulting from false statement by an
expert if he proved he had no reason
able ground to believe. and did not
believe, the statement when made was
untrue. The measure of reasonable
ground" would be that course which
would be followed by "a prudent man
in the management of his own
property"
Defendants in such damage suits
could reduce liability by showing that
some of the loss was due to other
causes than the untrue statement.
Plaintiffs would have to prove they
purchased on reliance upon the false
statement after the corporation hac
made available to security holders an
earnings statement covering II months
of operation subsequent to the filing
of the registration statement.
Requirements that suits must be
filed within three years after filing OF
the registration statement and for the
plaintiff to furnish bord to cover
costs when demanded by the courts to
prevent strike suits"
