MAYOR'SCLASH
With NAZIS UP
T0PRESIDENT
International News Service

President Roosevelt is prepared
to intervene in the Battle of
EpithetS" between Mayor Fiorello
LaGuardia and the Genman Off
cial press if the New York mayor
fails to halt his criticism of Chan
Cellor Adolf Hitler.
This was reported in State De
partment circles today in the wake
Of a second sharply worded protest
by Germany over LaGuardia's
barbed utteranceS.
Secretary of State Hull apollo
el1ed for a second time yesterday
after Ambassador Hans Luther
protested a renewal of attacks on
Hitler by LaLGuardia at an anti
Na7i mass meeting in New York
Monday night.
Luther told Hull that If such
attacks continued they would re.
suit in a serious strain" on the
relations between Germany and
the United States.
Hull replied that his first apol-
ogy in response to a similar pro-
test was equally applicable in
this case" In his first apology
Hull had said the American Gov
eminent earnestly deprecates the
utteranCeS which have thus given
offenSe to the German govern
ment' and pointed out that the
expressions Of a private citizen
were not the views of the Govern
ment.
Following Luther's call, Hull, 1t
was learned, had a lengthy tele-
phone conversation with the Presi-
dent at Warm Springs. Afterward
he said
Il am personally hopeful that
all who are participating in the
present controversy, which is
marked by bitter and vitupera.
tive utterances in this country
and in Germany, soon may
reach the conclusion that it
would be to the best interests of
both countries for them to find
other subjects which can be dis
cusSed more temperately."

Business Increase
PrOUeS Boom
To Clubs
NEW YORK, March 10 G.N.sO,

NEW YORK, March 18 GN.SO.
Club life in America is reviving.
A simple Statement-but impor-
tant, for it signifies that Happy
Days Are Here Again" You'll
probably see more folks at your
favorite golf clubs this summer
than in 1886, or 1885, and a great
many more than you saw four
years ago when everybody was
bearing down" in the fight
against the depression.
The fact club life is coming back
in an important way is indicated
in the new 1887 edition of Club
Members of New York, recently
published. This book shows a big
gain in the roster. 1t reflects a
revival of activity in the leading
clubs of New York-a sharp con-
trast to conditions that prevailed
in the depression days.
About $4,000 memberships are
recorded in the volume. Although
this number is still below what it
was at the height of prosperity it
is steadily climbing.
President Roosevelt belongs to
five clubs. They are the Knicker-
booker, Century New York Yacht,
City Club and Harvard Club.
Chief Justice Charles Evans
Hughes of the Supreme Court is
also a member of five clubs.
Former President Herbert
Hoover belongs to four.
Col. E. H. House, however, is a
member of the Century Associa-
ton only.

Horses Scarcer

Gradually but surely "Old Dob
bin continues to lose his hold
upon the life Of America. Since
1918, when the number of horses
in this country rose to a high of
21,555, 900 head, there has been
steady decline. the number drop
ping to 11.327000 on January l,
1887.
Despite this depletion in num-
bers, the value placed upon the
horse population has risen from
a low of $665, 100000 in 1888 to
more than $1,000, 100000 this year.
