ALL ACES SCORE
FOR D. C, BERTHS|
in U. S. AMATEUR
BY Lillian RIXEY

After yesterdays qualifying play
at Congressional for the eight
berths from the Middle Atlantic
section in the National Amateur
championship at Oakmont. Sep
tember IL, no one can say golf
is an old mans game, nor for
that matter can they say it's a
young mans game. Scan the ages
of the eight lucky winners and
it looks like anyone's game.
Bobby Brownell, of Manor. top
|qualifier with a subpar 143. is 10.
Ralph Bogart, Of Army-Navy, is
1S, and so is Otto Greiner of Rod
gers Forge. Then came the middle
men: Levi Yoder, of Kenwood, and
Ernie Caldwell, Of Hillendale, are
both 80; while Spencer Overton. Of
Rolling Road, and Martin Nc
Carthy, of Beaver Dam, are both
Al. Finally, there is Miller B. Stev-
inson, of Columbia, aged So, whose
152 gave him seventh place among
the eight PittSburgh-bound anna
teurS.
WIDE RANGE
In national amateur competi-
tive experience, they range from
the youthful Bogart, playing in
his first championship, to the vet
eran Columbia player, competing
in his fifth national event. Wash
ington golfers took five places to
Baltimore's three, with no float
erS" from other communities fig
uring in the final results for the
first time in years.
Between the top qualifier, Bobby
Brownell, and Levi Yoder in
eighth place, there was a differ
ence of 10 strokes. After Brown
ellis 143 came the three Baltimore
aces-Spencer Overton, of Rolling
Road, with 145; Ernie Caldwell,
of Hillendale, with 146, and Otto
Greiner, of Rodgers Forge, with
148. Ralph Bogart's 149 earned
him fifth place; Martin Nc
Carthy's $50, sixth; Miller Stevin-
sons 152, seventh, and Levi Yod-
er's 1853, eighth.
SADDEST MAN
Saddest man on the course and
the last man in was Forrest
Thompson, of Beaver Dam. Going
into the last hole he had 149. All
he needed on the eighteenth to tie
Levi Yoder for that eighth berth
on the amateur squad was a par 4.
Unfortunately, no one was there
on the eighteenth tee to tell him.
His drive hooked about 10 yards
into the trees on the left of the
fairway and, after surveying the
situation, Me-. Thompson decided
to play safe for a five instead of
boldly pitching out to the green
through a clearing in the trees. He
carefully Clipped out to the fair

speed. and that is going to mean COM
promise.
The Administrations solution OF the
depression Is to spend more money. 1t
Is now clear that Congress seriously
and rightly doubts whether spending
more money will of itself accomplish
the desired aim.
So the question is whether we can
have directed and useful spending. &C
companied by an honest reconsidera-
ton of the New Deal program to date
The spending would be concession
to the President. The reconsideration
OF the program concession to Con-
gress. And both together might heal
the breach and put us on the way to
recovery.
Only Justification.
Any kind Of a spending program
must be based on an accurate evalu-
alton OF what is wrong with our econ
omy at the present moment.
Throughout this depression the pre-
mise has been maintained by the ad-
mlnlstration that the recession OF bus-
ness was due to underpurchasing power
on the part Of the masses because Of
too low wages and too low returns to
agriculture. relative to existing profits,
and that If this purchasing power were
augmented We should have prosperity.
Ihat premise was implicit In the ad-
mlnlstration's fight for the wages and
hours bill as an anti depression meas
ure and was reiterated less than a
month ago in the Presidents Gaines
Vile speech. This premise is the only
justification for new, huge extension
OF w. P. A. expenditures, considered
not as humanitarian but as a recoy-
cry measure.
II what is done Is done on this
premise, it will fail Because the re-
cession did not begin. and the de-
preston was not caused, by under
purchasing power on the part OF the
masses. This is depression due TO
under-investment in capital goods, and
the administration own advisers now
know it. The purchasing power of
the workers Of this country, adjusted
to the cost Of living. and making al
loWance for unemployment, was higher

despite the fast that production was
way behind the 1929 level.
Squirt In Employment.
The only big squirt III employment
and in the national income began in
the second quarter OF 1885, with a re-
vival in the durable goods industries
Under this squirt, and in a very few
months, unemployment fell from H.
100000 to 100000, whereas all the
previous spending had only reduced
it from 100000 to 100000.
