At the end OF last season he re-
tired. But with the death of Ed
Thorp, another outstanding referee
this summer, Walter R. OkeSon,
chairman of the national football
rules committee and selector of
eastern football officials, prevailed
upon OBrien to assume Thorp's as
signaentS. This O'Brien agreed to
do.
Thorp's schedule included two
games involving Brown university.
In 1888 Brown claimed that deci-
sions by O'Brien as referee account
ed for its defeat by Yale, IA to 6.
O'Brien claims it was a protest by
Brown which led OkeSon suddenly
to accept his resignation" this
year.
On Aug. last O'Brien received
from Okeson a list of expense allow
ances which included no hotels or
taXis, and called for compulsory use
of weekend exclusion rates on trains
to Pittsburgh. O'Brien then re-
quested permission to turn in ex-
penSe accounts covering his actual
expenses. On Aug. 10 he received
from Okeson the following reply:
Dear Eddie have your letter stating
you wish to be allowed to travel when and
how YOU please and be compensated for
the actual expenses. I can readily under
stand your position. but unfortunately 1
am not permitted to make an exception
to our rules.
I have come to the conclusion I had no
right to ask you to do something which
means such an expense and inconvenience
to you. I am withdrawing my request that
you officiate this fall and have Cancelled
the appointments sent you.

NEW YORK, May 4.-The gen

tinued favorable, "in spite of the un-
certainties which are weighing on
some districts" and nothing is dis
cernible in the immediate future to
indicate a major letdown in the

Mercantile Agency's Weekly Review,
out today.
Although evidences of business
progress are cumulative and in fire.
quent instances overwhelming, the
Review states, "cognizance should not
be lost of the fact that recovery still
is in its initial stages, and is subject
to all the fluctuations and unexpected
weaknesses which come to the sur
face at times in the growth of any
new movement.
Its prospects for development to
the state Of sturdy maturity, how
ever, appeared more assured. as
greater freedom is to be provided for
the exercise of its devloping strength,
since the Government Is to allow the
widest possible latitude to business
during the balance of the second year
Of recovery.
Trade now has gained so much
momentum that it is becoming less
dependent on Government spendings,
and with the added stimulus of ia
forable weather during the current
month the carryover of business into
June will be far larger than was esti-
mated when the Spring season
