STRIKES BEAT

Yankees flashy maple-boppers,
who rolled against Pig n Whistle
Saturday, are looking forward to
the annual Mems Dixie Sweep
stakes to be staged under the
sponsorship of the Washington
Times on November "a, for all
three expect to roll in it.
Said Lou Dewey, manager OF
the team:
"I1I bring down all three Of
them, and possibly Eddie
; Sinner, too, if we can make
i proper arrangements. Four hum
dred dollars is we'll worth shoot
ing for, and then there is a
chance of picking up few odd
greenbacks here and there. Sure,
there is also a chance of drop
ping a few dollars, but that only
makes it that much more inter
I esting. Besides we are a bit
ahead of the game as far as
money goes"
, So Connecticut will be repre-
Sented by three. and probably
four bowlers, who have won the
deep respect of local opponents
of the duckpin pastime and are
some shakes" with big money at
stake.
Strikes win duckpin matches.
The Connecticut Yankees, who
are the National team champions,
defeated the Pig n Whistle by
that medium in an intersectional
duckpin match, when they out
struck the locals, Il to 10. though
chalking up six less spares, reg
iStering 81 to Pig n Whistles 81.
Wood. Getters
The Yankees we're also a bit
better as wood-getters and had,
thanks to that second ball on their
additional strikes, higher average
count per mark.
They also showed to consider
able better advantage in the clos
ing boxes of the match. The
Yankees averaged 615 for the team
match against 6O8.
Eddie Sinner, the Connecticut
youngster. set the pace for both
teams with a 1913 average. while
Hokie Smith topped the Pigs with
127.
High game went to Tony lama
rome when he rolled 100 in the
team match. while Ray Barnes,
imported from Baltimore by the
Pig n Whistle crew, had high set,
$40.
Averages Four Spares
i Ollie Pacini backed up his repu-
tation as a spare shooter when
he averaged four per game.
Pacini'S 642 in the singles was
remarkable in that he did not
strike once in it. compiling it with
% spares. He had a surprisingly
high count average of 7.16 per
spare.
Pacini's first three games in the
team match totaled Alb. and
Eannarone had 403 while opposing
him.

No less an authority than Presis
dent Roosevelt has declared that.
in many parts of the United
States, the interest rates on mort
cages have been "exorbitant and
usurious."
Not only that, but even in spots
where the rates have been more in
line with common sense, it has
been difficult to obtain a mort
gage, much less to market one.
The fact that the Chief Execu-
tive has a thorough knowledge Of
the field and it's practices should
be appreciated by those who
either own homes or wish to own
them.
Fixed Low FILA Rate
It was President Roosevelt him.
self who insisted that the interest
rate on the new mutual mort
cages" being sponsored by the
Federal Housing Administration
should be as low as possible. and
uniform throughout the country.
In setting the general rate at 5
per cent when the mortgage is
used to purchase house. and at
512 per cent when it is used to
refinance Indebtedness on a house,
the President not only made an
important gift to millions Of
American citizens. but also
changed a basic part of our eco
nomic structure.
Nothing in the New Deal has as
far-reaching, permanent effects as
the rate on these new mortgages.
They cannot help but become the
standard mortgages of the coun.
try. thus effecting a metamorpho.
sis in the prevailing type of home
financing.
Keeps Market Liquid
Methods of mortgage marketing
also are being changed.
The national mortgage associa-
tions" provided in the national
housing act will represent broker
age facilities for the new trusts.
and will serve to keep the market
in liquid and solvent condition.
The basic purposes of the plan
include more than assistance to
responsible citizens in owning
their homes.
Another purpose is sterilization
of home construction, so that
there will be a steady growth and
not the peaks and hollows of the
past. This will serve to steady
employment and sales of goods by
the durable goods industries.

tinue this discussion of the

Default BY Britain

PARIS, June G.N.SO.-Great
Britain'S action in announcing
suspension of debts payments to
the United States was hailed
with unconcealed qualification in
governmental circles today. It
was considered justification of
the position previously adopted
by France, which defaulted its
payments a year ago.
The British action was believed
to preclude any possibility of a
token payment being offered by
France on June Is.

q virtual united front for down

this Government.
Britains note made it plain the
British intend to seek a drastic
reduction of their own debt to
this country before agreeing to
any resumption of regular pay
mentS.
The note put forward list of
reasons why London considered
full payment Of the British debt
would prove impractical at the
present time.
These ranged anywhere from
the contention that full payment
in gold would prove harmful to
the United States itself by dis
rupting it's monetary policy to the
declaration that such action
would:
Throw a bOmbShelI into the
European arena which would
have financial and economic
repercuSSiOns over all five CONT
nents and would postpone in
definitely the chances of world
recovery"
This latter statement was based
on the contention that full pay
ment by Britain would revive the
whole system of intergovernmen-
tai war debt payments, especially
the German reparations payments
which we're Slashed 80 per cent at
the Lausanne conference
The note also called attention
to the fact that Britain had paid
three times more on its debt to
this country than any of the other
European debtor nations.
