4 Phillies will be standing be-
hind their trading counter, open for
any kind of player deals-provided
they're profitable-at the big league
Spring meeting next month.
Two of the smartest traders in the
business. the peppery catcher-mana-
ger and the genial club president will
swap almost anybody on the Phils'
roster, if they think the transaction
will pan out for them
Wilson confirmed that fact today,
but refused to name Names" even
when asked If First Baseman Dolph

among those up for sale or barter.
Offers Claimed Too Mild.
LIE DID make clear, however, that
the other clubs particularly the
Giants and Chicago Cubs, will have to
offer something more than nothing"
for his players.
"The Giants could have had Ca
milli," Jimmy explained. They
wanted him-but they wanted him for
nothing.
THE same thing goes for the Cubs,
if they want Curt Davis and are will
ing to return Chuck Klein to US"
Jimmys words gave the first con-
firnation from the Phils of the Oft
rumored deals involving Camillis
proposed sale to New York and the
transaction involving Davis. Klein
and the Cubs.
Giants Eyeing Camilli.
THE reports have had the Giants
seeking Camilli to take over
Manager Bill Terrys place at first
base, so that he might hang up his
glove and direct things from the
bench. Recently, however, Giant off,
cials have said the Phillies asked too
much for the California youngster.
But the Phils' trading plans don't
stop there. Wilson emphasized that
suitable offer can have almost any

CONGRESSIONAL COUNTRY
CLUB within a year or two
may become the third golf
~ club around Washington with
more than l8 holes for golf. II the
usual Spring congestion becomes too
bad in April and May, when 20O-odd
players gather at the first tee on Sat-
urday afternoons and $50 more strive
to play on an l8-hole course on Sum
days, the officers of Congressional may
decide to make use of the extra nine
hole course which was built two years
ago and now awaits the final touch
ing-up process which will give Con-
gressional q holes of good golf.
There are today two other private
clubs around Washington which have
three nine-hole layouts, in use all the
time. These are the Beaver Dam
Country Club Of Landover. Md, which
has a full standard length course OF
around $500 yards and a nine-hole
course of shorter length, and the
Manor Club of Norbeck, Md, with
standard length layout around $500
yards and short inside" nine used
chiefly by the woman golfers OF the
club.
New Nine Is Rolling Course.
TWO years back, visualizing the
= need for additional golf facili-
ties, Congre 5sional had fairWays
cleared and an entire set-up made for
another nine holes of golf. The extra
nine lies south and east of the club
house, in the angle between the twelfth
hole and the house. It is laid out
over rolling country and. according to
R. p. Hines, the club greenskeeper. and
Maj. F. M. Dawson. greens chairman,
it is of as high standard as the pres
ent course.
One of the better one-shot holes
may come when the new nine is put
in use, for the architect, Donald Ross,
cleverly has used the pond south of
the club house for one of the holes.
1t will become testing hole, around
100 yards, with an all-water carry, and
a hole that will be terror for many
golfers who cannot smack a ball that
far.
Just what disposition will be made
of the new nine when put in use hasn't
been decided. It may take the place
of the present first nine for while
or it may be used simply as an extra
nine to relieve congestion. But what
ever is done with it, the new nine will
furnish a real test Of golf.
Two o-Shotters, But Tough.
IT is composed mostly Of two-shot
holes, but they are tough enough,
and all that remains to be done is
building of greens, which doesn't take
long, and seeding and moving of fair
ways. All this could be done in about
two months. and the course could be
ready for play this year if the club is
dispoed to spend the money.
Many Congressional members are
not even aware that an extra nine
holes has been laid out and could be
made ready for play within short
time. Now it is planted to wheat and
rye and other fast-growing grasses to
be turned under for fairway cultiva-
ton.

MILLION WORKERS
GET WAGE BOOSTS
Dividends Affect Thousands
More in Prosperity
Tidal Wave.
Ry the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. November 14.-Sev.
eral hundred million dollars wiz be
sweps into the pockets Of workers and
shareholders in American industry be-
fore the end of the year by a golden
tide OF wage boosts, extra dividends
and Christmas bonuses.
A survey today showed wage in
creases totaling upward of sl00,000,000
annually for more than 1000, 200
workers in steel, motor, textile, meat
packing and rubber industries.
Thousands of shareholders in seven
big corporations will get about sl62,-
100000 from the year-end shower OF
extra dividends and workers nearly
$4,000 900 in bonuses.
These figures will be augmented by
pay and dividend increases from the
treasures of scores Of smaller cor
porations.
The Autumn pay and dividend tide
gathering headway the last two weeks
has attained the widest sweep Wall
Street has seen in years.
Increases tagious.
1t is expected to continue. 1t was
pointed out in business quarters that
wage increases tend to become infec-
tious, as indicated by the spread the
last few days from steel to other in
dustries.
Many additional corporations are
expected to dip into substantial 1886
profit gains to get under the wire by
December 81 for tax credits on divi-
dends paid out to avoid any Federal
surtax upon undistributed earnings.
This levy, passed in the last session
OF Congress, appears to be playing an
important role in corporation dis
bursements.
Considering business improvement
and the example set by leading corpo-
rations. more workers are believed in
line for Christmas bonuses and wage
hikes.
Starting next week. most Of the
steel industry's 475,000 wage earners
are due for pay increases averaging
10 per cent, estimated to amount to
more than $50, 900 900 yearly on basis

Motor Car Co. raising the yearly pay
roll S1,250, 900 for nearly 10000 work
ers. Chrysler's $1,000 workers are in
line for q $4,000,000 bonus, the third
this year, and more of the automotive
industrys 100000 workers are ex-
pected to share the year-end windfall.
Textile Mills Affected.
Leading mills showed the way last
week with 10 per cent rise for the
wooden and worsted industry's las, 900
workers, with yearly pay roll placed
at more than 100000, 900. A series
Of announcements from mills in New
England and elsewhere indicated the
move had become general, embracing
a majority Of the industry's wage
earners.
Some cotton and rayon mills have
Joined the procession. Whether it would
become general in those sectors of
the textile industry remains to be
seen. It would mean much in cotton

The meat packing industry. an
early recruit to the Autumn move
ment, raised pay scales about $6.0o0.-

workers.
Other pay increases embraced a
wide variety Of concerns in the ma
chinery, office equipment, building
supply and miscellaneous manufac-
turing industries.
Heading the lineup Of impending
dividend disbursements are $65,250,-

holders, nearly $24,000,000 for Chrys-
ler's 10000, $32,320,000 for Standard
Oil Of New Jerseys 125.000 and $l9.-

$4,000 stockholders.
The dividend list has grown into q

units, General Motors and other con-
Germs also have moved to make adjust
