LEEDS, England. April 26.-A sure
berth on the 1888 British Walker Cup
team was the main goal Of more than
200 crack golfers who started play
today in the 18th English amateur
championship.
The field of 231, with entries re-
stricted to players with handicaps of
three or less, included four former
titleholders and a flock Of other
nominees for the Walker Cup squad.
The winner is virtually certain to be
rewarded with place on the team,
with one possible exception.
II Cyril Tolley, twice winner Of the
British amateur title, should win-and
he's been playing some great golf-the
situation would be complicated. He's
a member Of the Walker Cup Selection
Committee and thus ineligible for the
team.
The favorite was Leonard Crawley.
1881 champion, who is generally re-
garded as England's best amateur
golfer. Other former champions in
the field were Frank Pennink, 1887;
Stanley Lunt. 1884, and T. A. Bourn.
1880. The Walker cuppers included
j. E. Gent, the Yorkshire champion:
Johnny Graham and left-handed

informed Ahearn late yesterday that
an eye injury suffered by Pacho in a

that to fulfill the contract would
jeopardize Bobby's sight.

Turner's Arena thus will house only

SO we are going to spend So, 750, ,405 900
on recovery and relief, in about year
If we subtract from this total the appro-
prlations for outright relief, assistance to
youths in school, CCC camps, rural cleo
trification and additional flood control,
we have roughly $1,S00, 100000 to be
spent or loaned for various classes of
construction: housing, parks, roads, pub
lie buildings publicly owned utilities and
the like. Since the purpose of these pro-
visions of the measure is to stimulate
private industry to greater activity, the
spending will be done as fast as official
pressure can make it go.
In his recently published book, yours
to Venture" Robert r. Updegraff says:
If we are wise. we shall do this re-
constructing, not in great federal or
state spending spreeS, but in orderly
fashion on a more nearly pay-as-we
go basis creating work over the fears
and paying good wages to the men and
capital and management thus employ
ed. A certain volume of well-considered
and carefully engineered public works
can be used advantageouSly to cushion
the effects of a depression, but carried
too far such program defeats itself
Many of the WPA building projects of
the New Deal were sensible and repre-
sent improvements long overdue. But it
is to be feared that some of them will
prove to be costly mistakes. Not only did
they rob the future of construction work
that We shall need in years ahead, but
their operation and maintenance will be
back breaking load to carry. Further
more, many of these projects represent
buildings or facilities that will not be
really needed for ten or fifteen years yet
hence they have been built without all
the valuable knowledge and experience
that we shall acquire during the next de-
cade. They are costly monuments to our
shortsightedness, obsolete even before
they are needed for service. We may have
a deal of expensive reconstruction to do
even here.
Nevertheless we are going in for great
federal and state spending sprees, which
will raise more costly monuments to our
shOrtSigtedness. There is however, some
thing that local governments can do to
restrict the number Of those sad men,
orials. They can abstain from begging
for treasury funds and refuse to borrow
them for flagrantly unnecessary works.
Better direct relief than the erection of.

SAN FRANCISCO
BEGINS TO LEARN

Now that the Joe Louis-MaX Schmel
ing boxing match for the heavyweight
championship of the world has been rele-
gated to the history pages, recedlng eN-
element leaves to pubic gaze one of the
ridiculous aspects of such an interna-
tionally publicized events. 1t Is represent
ed best in the national clamor set up by
Germany that Schmeling was unfairly
defeated. To the Nazis, Schmeling's de
feat was national blow.
Extreme nationalism may lead to
many foolish situations For inStnace,
when the fight experts of the rest of the
world were tabbing Louis a heavy favor
ite to defeat Schmeling, Germany made
Schmeling two-to-one favorite to de-
feat Louis Carried away by their en-
thusiasm, the German experts" threw
a cloak of national honor around Schmel-
ing, SO that he would think he was defend
ing the integrity of the entire nation. No
wonder his defeat was a severe national
blow. No wonder the German experts
had to set up cry of unfair
The rational mind realizes that the
fight between Schmeling and Louis was
a fight between one man and another.
Because the Negro won, it does not sig
nifty that every Negro can defeat every
German. 1t merely means that he was
the best man of the two in the ring that
night.
Unfortunately for the average German
citizen, Nazi leaders have seen fit to en-
courage a spirit of extreme nationalsm
whereby any true German is supposed to
excel any person of any other race at
anything and everything. For that reason
it was doubly unfortunate for the Nazi
leaders that, in so highly publiciZed a
fight, the German lost. To sportsmen of
other nations, it makes no difference
whatsoever in their regard for Germay
or German athletes.
Nationalism, in moderation, is a good
thing for any country. Extreme nation
alism is not.

FOOLiSHNESS OF
EXTREME NATIONALISM

In the news the other day brief item
quoted a report by San Francisco civic
committee that an unofficial and unor-
ganized boycott of San Francisco by
northern California communities and
neighboring states has resulted from un-
ending labor troubles in the bay city
and that the boycott is growing stronger
instead of weaker.
No industrial section, regardless of its
size or Importance can survive if agri-
culture as whole refuses to send its pro-
duce there. Farmers of northern Cali
fornia have had such difficulties with
labor unions in San Francisco that they
have, little by little, began sending their
produce elsewhere for processing, mar
keting or shipping. The loss is San Fran
cisco's, not the farmers.
The very labor unions responsible for
the trouble are the greatest losers, be-
cause trade from the agricultural CEN
ters provided them with thousands of
hours of work By strikes and picketing
and coercion they may obtain the highest
wage scale in history, but unless there
is work on which they are paid the scale,
it will do them no good. And if the farm
ers once organize an official boycott
against San Francisco there will not be
nearly as much work for the union men,
bers as there is now.
San Francisco can make its peace with
the farmers only one Way-by control
ling racketeering labor unions of farm
produce so that they cannot interfer with
nor delay normal movement of farm pro-
duce through the port of San Francisco,
or to the markets of San Francisco.
