Scientists and the Workers

A new note on the attitude that scientists
should have toward the masses who perform
most of the useful work in the creation OF
wealth was sounded by Sir Richard Gregory,
chairman of the new scientists division of the
British Association, and Professor Levy, OF
Imperial College, at the recent meeting OF the
association in Manchester, England.
Sir Richard told the meeting that scientists
had for too long gone exploring uncharted
seas and brought back argosies laden with
rich discoveries which had been left on the
ouay-side of civilization to be misused and
abused.
sThe scientist cannot absolve himself from
responsibilities for the problems of life and
labor resulting from creative scientific dis
covery," he said.
In the United States, scientists including
%inventors) have been appropriated on a sal
airy basis by our large industrial corporations
and consigned to inventing labor-displacing
machinery and methods to be installed for
the sole benefit of those who live on interest
and dividends regardless of the effect of such
inventions and methods on the welfare of
the masses without whose physical strength
and mental ability very little wealth would
be produced.
This grabbing the benefits of applied sci
ence by investors was deprecated by Profess
sor Levy, who described at the Manchester
meeting the chaotic effect of scientific
changes and the problems with which scien-
lists were concerned.
Science has opened up avenues Of employ
ment in new directions " he said, 'fbut it has
created unemployment in others it has closed.
In creating the chauffeur it has destroyed the
cabby.
at has meant new life to ONE and misery
and undernourishment to others.
at is entitled to judge efficiency in the way
its results have been applied. We are entitled
to inquire whether the persistent large-scale
unemployment during recent years is an
efficient use of the c~ommunity's man power,

science has helped to create, and whether the
transfer Of industries mean social efficiency

MISSOULk UNIONS
OPPOSE PROVISIONS
OF GOVERNMENT ACT

MISSOULA, July 13.-Practically
all projects in Missoula have been
shut down since Tuesday morning
in cooperation with the nationwide
protest against the vicious provisions
of the Woodrum bill. Tuesday night
a mass meeting jammed the Winter
garden in the Union hall and ex-
pressed their protest against lowered
wage scale, cuts in quotas and in
security earnings. Members of the
strike committee of the Workers
Alliance reported on the progress
of the strike. Speakers gave a sum-
mary of the provisions of the pres
ent WPA bill and the effect that it
has upon the workers. The meeting
upheld the action of the strike COM
mittee and voted to wire protests
to congressman and senator's de-
handing the passage of the Murray
Casey WPA bill.
The strike committee voted to per-
nit continuation of the commodities
project so that people on relief who
are not being adequately provided
for might still have the food and
clothing the project has to offer.
Tuesday night the Missoula Team
sters Union endorsed the actions of
the statewide conference held in
Butte Monday night at which prac-
tically all central labor bodies and
outstanding unions of the state set
up a state strike committee. On
Wednesday evening the Missoula
Hold Carriers and general laborers
took similar action.
This evening the Missoula County
Central Trades and Labor Council
in it's regular meeting will take &C.
ton relative to supporting the strike
Delegates to the Butte meeting were

Their winning streak snapped at 10 games at Danbury last Sunday, there is more than an even chance that the K. of L. basketeers will have a three-game losing string on their hands by 10:3o tomorrow night for they have two tough games lined up for their weekend action. The Passaic, N. J. Reds, crack pro aggre- gation, invade St. Joseph's hall at 9 o'clock tonight and tomorrow eve- ming the Liths take on the Guards at 8:30 at the Danbury West street Armory in the deciding game of their state semi-pro championship series.
 The Knights ring down the cur- tain on their season Easter Sunday night against an opponent now be- ing lined up by John Stankus, book ing manager.

the world. will be played on No. 1 course. The boys don't criti- cize the courses chosen by the United States Golf association, but say they never are in shape And no matter how good golf course si, unlses 1t is in first class con- dition, it's second rate. They say that asking them to play over a course in bad condition is just like asking Willie Hoppe to try and win the billiard championship over a table spotted with cornbread crumbs, bits of chalk and MT. Edwards green derby.
 Freddie Corcoran, tournament di- rector of the Professional Golfers association and one of the smoothest, smartest showmen in the sports world, has come up with the idea of dressing the pros in regulation golfing outfits. Thinks it would add color to the game and give a lift to the players games. After all," Corcoran says, football, baseball, track, tennis, and even woinens la crosse teams have standard outfits. Why not golfers?" Corcoran also re- grets the scarcity of nicknames in golf. Think every player should have a colorful moniker to suit his style of play.
 Billy Burke, first round leader of the Masters tournament, mas the smartest dog in the world. A combination Shetland and sheepdog, and named Jerry. He can do everything but make train reserva- tions. cook up crab souffle. and sit through Jane Withers movie. Ralph Guldahl is a refreshing champion. Ask Ralph. who has won the last two open champion ships, who he thinks will win the one this year at the Philadelphia Country club, and he will give you the name of fellow named Gull dahl. Why not?" he asks. I'm hitting the ball as well or better than ever did. and won the last two didn't IF" They didn't teach logic at the reformatory I attended, but that seems to be 1t ta me Sammy Snead will have o qualify for the open this year, and already he is worrying about it. He laid himself open to this trying ordeal by failing to finish among the first 30 at Denver last year.

CENTS DROP HOT HOOP THRILLER TO H|LLIES 2S-26
Pomponio Pops Winning Basket in Last Seconds;
 Final GO Wednesday

In photo-fi finish thriller that had nobodys tag on 1t until the final whistle, the Raymond Hillies squeezed out 28-26 victory over the Gents of the Hill last night to again deadlock the playoff series for the championship of the Washing ton Park hoop league. Pete Pom- ponio's hoop in the closing seconds decided the game in favor of the Hillies.
 The third and final game of the series is set for next Wednesday night at the Hill court.
 Nip And Tuck
 The lead changed three times, when less than two minutes of play remained, with both teams match ing basket for basket and foul for foul. Poor foul shooting by the Gents, who outscored the Hillies from the floor, proved the difference between victory and defeat.
 Sinking 10 of their 60 floor shots, the Gents only made good in six of 13 free throws, w.ile the Hillies sank nine field goals in 60 shots, but were successful in 10 of IA fouls.
 Close Enough
 Baskets by Higgiston and Cunha star of the Gents attack, and foul by the latter, gave the Gents 5-4 lead over the Hillies at the end of the first stanZa. Harnick and Rinal- di tallied for the Hillies.
 Frhn capny1I If xfyo ft1o vta A a |, q of the Hillies victory, when they scored nine points and held the Gents pointless, to make the count 14-5 at the half. Cunha again led the Gents attack in the third per- iod, to bring the score 15-11.
 More than $50 excited fans lost control of their conservative natures in the final period, when both teams put on an exhibition of basketball as 1t is seldom seen but always ap- preciated. Goodwin sank two hoops in succession to tie the score; Mar tin sank a foul, and Goodwin matched 1t.
 Comeback
 The Gents went ahead for the first time since the first period when Cunha looped long one to make the count 18-16. But Loughlin start ed Hillie rally, aided by Griffin to bring the count to 21-18, Hillies. Continuing, Griffin tossed a foul and Pomponio hooked two-pointed to give the Hillies what looked like "the ice." Still fighting, Goodwin netted free award and followed with hoop, then Casey added a basket. Two fouls by Griffin were matched by Cunha's hoop. tying the score. Pomponio's shot, on a ball retrived from the blackboard, was the final. The Gents were working the ball down the floor as the whis- tie blew.

Billy Burke As Masters Golf Pacer Now Is To l Shot
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff COrrespOndent)


 Augusta, Ga, April 1.-(UP.-Ex- cellent performances by less-favor- ed golfers left the Masters invita- tion tournament in such an April fools mess today that 1t was the best betting tourney in the classics six-year history.
 Col. Tom Watterson of Louisville Ky, official bookmaker for the Masters, said: i've handled the wagering on all five revious com- petitions, and I never saw anything like this-never saw time when the field was so jumbled going into the second round. After the first IS holes, in other journeys, you could always put your finger on one hot favorite. But not this time. That's why the current tournament probably will set new high for the total amount wagered on the Mas ters, exceeding even that of 1857"
 Burke Now 15-1
 Billy Burke of Cleveland, former open champion, who was 40-l shot in the original price-making, led the field after his brilliant 6S. three under par, on the first round. Right on his heels came Sam Snead, White Sulphur Springs, w. Va, one of the three. original favorite. Tam shot a 70 yesterday. But in the next bracket, at Il, was Tommy Armour, the rejuvenated Scotsman who has won opens on both sides of the Atlantic. Armour shared third place with two former Masters win- ners, Byron Nelson and Henry Picard.
 When Watterson issued his orig inal quotations, he figured Picard would be up high, since he was de- lending champion and one of the three favorites, but the bookmaker never dreamed that Armour would be in the running, and priced him at 5O-1. Nelson was given 14-l rating despite his '37 triumph. Guldahl, U. s. open king and the third favorite, was doing fairly well, sharing the 72 bracket with six others
 Accordingly, Watterson pared the favored odds on Picard, Snead and Guldahl from 8-1 to 5-l, and lifted Burke from 40-1 to 15-l, and Ar mour from 50-1 to 15-1.
 The field of 46 aspirants for the $l 800 first prize played the second round of IS holes today, with the rseult to be settled by a6 holes to- morrow.
 Two of the games greatest cam paigners now seemed to have lit- tie chance of winning--Boboy Jones, for whom the course was built to honor, and sir Walter Hagen. Both were down in the>7la bracket.
