Quite number of political OBJ
servers, however, have figured it out
that the real reason which the New
Deal has in its mind is to get the ma
chinery of check giving in full opera
tion so that the flow of funds to the
voting precincts of the farm areas will
be well under way by the Summer
months and in time for the congress
sional elections in the Fall.
$500, 100000 to Hold Vote.
1t is estimated that the administra-
ton needs about s5O0000,000 a year
to hold the farm vote in line, this sum
having been spent on the average each
year heretofore either for A. A. A. or
soil conservation or for the other
schemes which the New Deal uses to
bore into the Republican strongholds
OF the farm States.
Mr.. Roosevelts political combina-
tion has been to invade the cities with
labor policies and relief money and to
win the country districts with farm
subsidies. 1t isn't necessary from an
administration standpoint to carry the
farm districts by as big vote as the
cities, but merely to make such big
dent in the Republican vote as to
Insure in 1888 a substantial majority
Of Democratic Congressman in both
Houses and by 1910 sufficient ma
1ority to win the electoral college.
The President has not produced
farmer-labor alliance in the sense Of
q new party or combination which is
consciously woven together in politi-
cal way, but he has managed to derive
his major support from both the cities
and the farm areas in bigger voting
numbers than other Democratic
Presidents since the Civil War.

BURIED TODAY.

BOSTON, Aug. % UN.S).
The world of sports today babe a
final farewell to George Wright,
80, pioneer baseball player and
father Of golf in the United
States"
Ill for many years, the founder
of a well-known sporting goods
firm died late Saturday at his
home in Dorchester. Private
funeral services were held today
from the Immaculate Conception
Church, Harrison Avenue.
At the age of 16, Wright was
a crack cricketer and no-handicap
player with the st. George Cricket
Club, of Hoboken, N. j., in 1866
he became a member Of the
Olympics, the pioneer baseball
organization in the world. Two
years later he Joined the ma
tionals Of Washington which
toured the west without suffering
a defeat. The following year he
became manager Of the unde-
feated Cincinnati Red Stockings.
From 1871 to 1875 he and his
brother Harry were members Of
the first professional baseball
league, playing with Boston. This
club led the league for six
seasons, was undefeated in its
home games and in 1875 set a
record of II victories and eight
defeats.
His interest in golf came about
by accident. He noted golf clubs
listed in a British catalogue and
purchased a set. The set OF
clubs came, but no instructions,
so he placed them in his sport
ing goods store. One day a
Scotchman noticed them, and
offered instructions. Later,
Wright established a nine-hole
course at Franklin Park with
several cricket.playing friends,
now claimed to be the first golf
links in this country.
Wright was born in New York
city, January %, 1847. Surviving
are two sons, Beals C. Wright, of
New York and Irving Wright,
vice president and director of
Wright and Ditson, two daugh-
tiers and four grandchildren.

KEEP COURAGE
Actions Create
Resentment
By DAVIS J. WALSH
International News Service
Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Schme-
ling says the man can't fight. Baer
says he can't, and almost had to
block one with his viSage yester.
day because he said it. The
British journalists agree that he
can't fight.
None of them are picking their
champion, Tommy Farr, to have
better than an extreme outside
chance against Joe Louis for the
worlds heavyweight champion
ship on Thursday night.
But Tommy Farr either thinks
he has a great chance-or he's
the proverbial small boy whistling
as he passes the graveyard. His
attitude, either way, couldn't have
been better illustrated than his
attempt yesterday to do violence
to Baer in the ring at Long
Branch.
What with this incident, supple
mented by Fairs acrid relations
with the English journalists here
and his pickering with the camp
staff, the impression seems to be
that the Brighter can't wait until
he gets Louis. He wants to lick
everybody else in the meantime.
Stimulates Tunney
Certainly, no fighter of promi-
hence, since that halcyon day
when Gene Tunney first realized
that he had hit the headlines, has
been quite so capable Of creating
acrimony on and from all sides.
In fact, there's now a certain
amount of reasonable doubt as to
whether Farr is actually trying to
fool himself-or everybody else.
Has he actually got something we
don't know about or just a lot OF
Welsh barney?
What he actually seems to have
so far is a hunched left shoulder
well up in front Of his jaw and a
couple Of cauliflower eyebrows.
He apparently hasn't got the
punch to make q fedora out Of a
derby hat. He doesn't seem to be
fast and he carries his left hand
so low that most Of the experts
are agreed that he couldn't get it
up in time to block a lead from
the average chorus man.
HAS EN- WONDERING
But beyond a doubt he behaves
a great brawl, at least in inter-
views, and frankly all of us are
beginning to wonder whether this
party from the mines of Tony
pandy knows something that we
don't.
I notice, for instance, that when
he began to blather at Baer in
the riAg yesterday, the gift to
American womanhood backed
away in some alarm and finally
made as though to climb through
the ropes.
Also that Baer was apologize,
both during and after the Incl.
dent. Frankly again and finally,
the man has some Of us guessing
