Betting Against Davey

Davey, once an inoffensive con- gressman here, following his elec- tion last November on 6 New Deal platform, successively criticized Ned Deal policies, persuaded Hop- kins to approve his home town superintendent of schools as relief administrator for a million needy jersons, refused to put up Ohio's stipulated two millions of monthly relief funds against FEFsA's. de- manded EZRA provide all the funds, made speeches against Hap kins' administration, and was oth- erwise obstreperous.
 That's the EZRA side of the story, anyway, plus a belief that Davey hopes to work up enough strength through anti-New Deal attacks to defeat Senator Bulkley in 1038.
 Davey seems to have stuck his neck out and the betting here is all against him in this test of po- litical strength.

 Washington, March 26-lt seems evident that the fcderal-state fe- lief system has been used widely for political purposes.
 But 1t isn't going to be used to build up anti-administration state machines-not if Roosevelt and Harry Hopkins can help 1t.
 That's a considerable part of the great moral lesson to be drawn from the onslaught against Cover nor Martin l.. Davey of Ohio. who faces charges of political corrup- tion" and shakedown" in the re- lief administration of his state.
 The Roosevelt administration Is shooting at the political leader ship of Davey and the Ohio Demo- cratic state committee as well as at the alleged corruption.
 At the same time, Hopkins is given a chance to offset mounting complaints of political interference and inefficiehcy in relief.
 A large national organization of social welfare agencies has se- cretly circulated it's people through out the cuntry to learn to what extent conditions nj Ohio are dup Heated in other states.
 Slap at Hopkins
 < Tn doing so, it has reproduced and circulated a report from Ohio - without mentioning names = which shows how the governor was bringing a previously rather decent relief system back into the hands of local politicians.
 Social workers have more or less similar complaints from other states and have been especially in- censed by political incidents in Tennessee, Colorado, Arkansas, and California.

TENNIS EXPERTS,
 MINUS HATS. GET
 INTO PREDICTIONS
Three Upsets Possible Me- LemOre Opines on Idle
 Day at Forest Hills
By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan Correspondent ]

(Un1teO FreSS StAu OOrreSpOHucutD
 Forest Hills, N. T., Sept. A. (UP)-Driven indoors by a rain which converted the courts into perfectly delightful setting for young ducks, but made them utter Iy useless for tennis, the critics, over their ale yesterday, decided upon the quarter-finalists, semi- finalists, and finalists in the na- tional championships now in prog Vess.
 The critics, after much debate, named the finalists with a deal off finality. The mems play today, they said, will see Donald Budge defeat Johnny Van Ryn. Bryan Grant outlast Wilbur Hess, Sidney Wood lick John McDiarmid, Greg ory Mangin whip Roderich Men, gel, and Wilmer Allison take Gene Mako, to join Frank Shields, Fred Jerry and Enrique Maier, who al- ready are safe in the round of eight. Then, in the quarter-finals, Budge will beat Grant, Wood con- quer Mangin, Allison rake Maier. and Perry dust Shields to fill the round of four. In the semi-finals, the critics declared, Perry, in a re- enactment of last years finals, will trounce Allison, and Budge will outlast Wood to go on to the last round, where he will fall before Perry.
 The writer, while he is no critic (Unless it's true that all one has to do to qualify as tennis critic is to lose ones hat) agrees with the above reasoning. Certainly he agrees that Perry will march tri- umphantly to his third successive title and thus become the first for eigner ever to retire our national trophy. There are several matches. however, which may result in an upset. For example, Allison is no cinch to take Mako today. The young Californian has been play ing brilliantly, and Winner, no longer a spry young thing, is defi- nitely slipping as singles per- former. Menzel certainly must be given an equal chance against Mangin, even though he lacks the stamina to play first-class tennis for five sets.
 It's dangerous to put the finger too firmly on Wood. The New Yorker is highly unreliable fel- low. He hasn't been on hris game of late, and even McDiarmid, player much below Woods class might easily beat him.
 The Women's semi-finalist, the critics agreed, would msot certain ly be Helen Jacobs and Mrs: Phyl- list Mulford King in the upper half, and Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Fab ya.a and Kay Summers in the low ed. We beg to disagree with the selection in the lower half. It is our opinion that Carolin Babcock, once more on the top of her game (which means she's the best server and smasher in women's tennis) will oust Miss Summers in the quarter-finals. We have fallen for Miss Summers beauty but not her game. Outside of her forehand and it's a beauty-she is very poorly equipped. Miss Babcock's big weakness lies not in her stroke equipment, but in her habit of go- ing to pieces in important matches.
 The critics said it would be Miss Jacobs and Mrs. Fabyan in the final the, same as last year. We agree, but we don't agree that Miss Jacobs will win.

New York, Sept. 4-CUP)-Hail to Halle Selassie!
 Hats off, and low, sweeping urt- sey-curtesy to the conquering lion of Judah, the king of the kings and my pal!
 Boys, that Ethiopian rascal has fixed me up. When he announced that he had deeded a share of Ethiopia to Standard Oil, it gave me the idea for which I've been searching for years. Ever since l started writing sports I've been get ting in trouble. People are always getting mad at me for all sorts of reasons.
 I'll write that baseball pitcher didn't have anything on the ball and he wants to swing on me. The same is true of football players, tennis racquet swingers, poloists, hockey players, and prize fighters. And you, my gentle readers, some- times get awfully sore when you back one of my selections with money and the selection runs for Mrs. Sweeney.
 This state of affairs has both cred me for a long time. An ascetic by nature, there have been times I was afraid to walk out of my of flee, lest some malcontent wham me on the jaw. Often, after making a particularly injudicious selection in fight, such as Baer over Brad dock, I have resorted to disguises to protect myself. Sometimes I'm a middle-aged mattress renovator, sometimes Pm a veterinarian spe- cializing in collie croup cases, and sometimes I'm simply ferryboat captain with just a tang of the sea about me.
 But thanks to Halle Selassie, that man of ideas, those unhappy days are gone forever. Yesterday, unbe- knownest to anyone except me, ] deed my self to several powerful corporations. For example I gave my head and my neck, down to the bottom of my Adams apple, to the Gulf Refining company, so, any body who wants to hit me in the head has first got to beat up every Gulf filling station attendant in America.
 My body I deede to the Truck drivers Association of America. Don't hit me in the stomach un- less you want hundreds of raw boned siX-footers to jump from behind their wheels and start treat ing you as if you had blocked their way in traffic.
 My legs 1 gave to the marine corps on a 10-year lease. Make a pass at me and every leatherneck this side of China is obligated to accept the challenge. Say too much and I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't have to pull General Smed- ley Butler off of your back.
 From now on out, with all this protection, I'm likely to go so wild in my predictions that I may even pick a winner. If I see fit to pick the St. Louis Browns to rise up and win the American pennant in the last two days of the season, I'll do it. If I happen to like Baer to win by knockout in 10 seconds of the first round, I'll say so.
 As a matter of fact, I hope I'll happen on a sour prediction that'll cause certain of my readers to threaten me with bodily harm. I'd like nothing better than to see some of you dear, sweet souls who wrote me such lovely, comforting
