TAKING STEPS TO LAY CLAIM
 WORLD H0NORS
Swiss Youth Starts Out to Win Title at Game
 of Walking
By GARDNER SOULE

Sports Editor, AP Feature Service
 There now comes forward man with a real claim to the champion ship of the most universal of all sports-the game of walking
 The claimant is gentleman named Fritz (Dusty Shoes) Stein- finger, a fair-haired youth who has just been publicized in London as the worlds most amazing pedestrian. He recently left London on 12,000- mile walk to Tokyo He hopes to ar rive in Tokyo for the Olympic Games in September, 1940.
 There is a great deal to walking, Fritz explained to the London re- porters. There is a code of ethics. Fritz walks by rules. Anyone who thought that all there was to it was to step outside the house and begin walking is hereby disillu- stoned.
 Because of the facts of geogra- phy, Fritz will have to cover 2,500 miles of his trip by boat. This dis tance must be made up by side trips on foot. He was appointed to make the walk by the Olympic Sports Association, and he started from Switzerland The trip to Lon- don was detour.
 Thumb is Ruled Out
 Fritz cannot hitch-hike = ever He must constantly carry large Swiss flag. He must always carry minimum weight on his back oi A pounds That, pals, is heavy aftel the first thousand miles.
 Fritz explained his methods read, fly. He walks at nightly moon light. He rests Is hours each day. Be tween capitals of the various ma tions, he is sworn to eat only frui and to drink only lemonade O water And, when he was stopped b, another pedestrian who asked tn

way to Tokyo. Fritz didn't hesitate:
 Tt is quite easy" he said. "You keep straight on through France to Italy, back through Greece, to Egypt, Palestine, Syria and Irak, across the deserts to Persia, and then on. through British India, China, and across the sea to Ja- pan"
 You go 1,098 miles and turn to the right. Then follow the road signs.
 The record books, it surprises one to discover contain much informa- tion about Fritz's illustrious predec- essors. There have been many walk CTS. People have been trying to get away from things since time i'm memorial
 He Wouldn't Stop

Homesick, he strolled back from Los Angeles to New York.
 Then there was Johanna Eass- finger, who, in 1900, walked" from Vienna to Paris-on her hands. She explained it by saying, T was en- tirely upset when I left home
 Another hoofer was William Rein- bold, who travelled by foot from New York to Chicago in IT days. Since the womans record is 42 days. Rein bold proved for history that the men had chance of escape before learned to drive cars.

the effect that the New York

Losses Heavy

"A SHORT glance at Mr.. MOI.
"A genthau's audit Conducted
as Of March 30 indicates that
the trials of business at large
are nothing to those of the Com
modify Credit Corporation,
whose business is certainly the
worlds worst.
The figures disclose it has
done roughly a business of $400,-
100000 and lost roughly $780,
100000, mostly in cotton. AS
the market prices have declined
since the March 81 audit, the
losses today are probably
greater.
But, in addition to its capital
stock, it has the power to bor-
row by issuing its own deben-
lures, so impairment of capital
will never stop it, or even limit
it for long.
At the same time 1t is now
holding a large sack containing
in loan form on which it pays
storage $4,000 bales of cot
ton; 33,756,O 900 pounds of tobac-
CO; 100000 bushels Of corn,
and lots of prunes, peanuts,
dates, wool and naval stores.
Some Of the loans on these
commodities are overdue but
have been extended by act Of
Congress. Others are overdue
but by the gracious neglect Of
the corporation to call for its
money are still pending"
AS the cor poration was
formed to keep up prices, it can
not possibly unload its collat.

wind up, no one now would haz'
ard a guess.

The Chandler Bill

TEIE Administration crowbar
l. is being used delicately upon
the Senate Judiciary Committee
to pry loose the Chandler bill.
It would make the Securities
and Exchange Commission prac-
tically a judicial dictator over
bankruptcy reorganizations, sub
ject, of course, to the authority
of the Federal courts.
The bill has been frozen in
the Senate committee since last
August, when it was eaSed
through the House, but the in
side expectation now is that it
will be slid through the Senate
in the usual Juror just before
adjournment.
