CHILE:
Nett?

If the U. S. wants solidarity
among Pan-American nations, she
must pay for it. Such is the view
of South and Central American coun-
tries who could get all the trade con-
cessions they want from bartering
Italy and Germany if Washington
did not play ball. Last November,
Cuba's Dictator Fulgencio Batista
visited President Roosevelt. A few
days later handsome concessions
were announced. This spring Bra
zil's Foreign Minister Oswaldo
Arahna came a-visiting, also WIN
ming concessions. Next came Mica
ragua's President-Dictator Anasta-
sio Somoza, who went away with
$4,000 in credits. A few days
later from far-away Santiago came
the announcement that a Chilean
economic commission will visit
Washington in July seeking loan
and commercial credits. Far from
being gifts, however, U. S. finan-
cial arrangements with Pan-Ameri-
can nations decrease American de-
tendency on European and Asiatic
nations and often provide new out
lets for domestic SURPRISES.

son or with Roosevelt. The fighting
Pat Harrison is going to obtain some
tax legislation if it is possible, and
Mr.. Roosevelt will have an oppor-
tunity to veto the bill if he likes.
So, in his speech, Mr.. Roosevelt
took sideswipe at the proponents
of tax changes. Their reasons for
demanding tax revision, you see,
are based upon a belief that bust
ness will not go ahead until govern
ment gives more consideration to
the burden that is on business. SEN
ator Harrison, along with many
other old line Democrats, feels that
business can not re-employ workers
as long as taxes are unevenly dis
tributed. That is to say, the Mis-
sissippi senator is seeking ways by
which business will take on work
ers and the federal treasury will be
free from the enormous appropria-
tons for relief spending.
With reference to the Harrison
position, however, it should be said
here that congress has shown a doz-
en- yellow streaks about cutting
down in spending. 1t started out
talking economy in a big way. 1t
acted, however, by way of voting
money out of the treasury wherev-
er new method for spending it
was proposed. The individual rep
resentative and senator, excepting
those boldly aligned with Senator
Harrison, displayed the usual cow
ardice of political more interested
in holding his ten-thousand dollar
job than in serving his country.

First Year Men
 Press Pro Vets For Grid HOnOrS

Veterans dominated the race for individual honors in the opening week of play in the National Foot ball league, but four rockies in the professional circuit served notice that they are going to make things tough for the older stars, according to statistics released today.
 In all divisions of play the vet- erans possessed top spots of achieve ments, but Bill Osmanski, Chicago Bears; John P1ngel, Detroit; Davey O'Brien, Philadelphia, and Parker Hall, Cleveland-all freshmen in major league grid ranks-were breathing on the necks of the lead- CTS in ground gaining and forward passing.
 Undoubtedly the biggest surprise of the opening week was the ball carrying of 165 pound, five-foot eleven Bob Swisher of the Chicago Bears whose 85 yards topped team mate Joe Maniaci b yone yard. This total was more .tL.an half of what Swisher gained in six games last sea- son when he garnered 133 yards.
 Going We'll
 Osmanski carried, the banner for the first year men with 6z yards, giving the Bears the first three places in ground gaining. P;ngel was fourth with 54 yards and O'Brien fifth with 52 yards.
 Arnie Herber, Green Bay forward passer, and Bernie Masterson, Chi. cago Bears veteran, completed 6 of Il passes each fo' 54 per cent eff ficiency, leading the other tossers in this department. O'Brien was third with 8 out of 16 for 50 per cent, and rookie Parker Hall of Cleveland was tied with veteran Jack Robbins, Chicago Cardinals with 6 out of IA for 46 per cent.
 Bill Smith, Chicago Cardinals end and John Drake, Cleveland back, led a vanguard of western divisio play CTS who usurped scoring honors Smith had tw touchdowns two ex- tra points and ore field goal to his credit for 17 points in two games which is ono point more than he scored all last season. Drake, in one game had two touchdowns for l: points, double the number he made last season. Monk Moscrip, Detroit end, was third with g points anc Maniaci, Bears, fourth with 8 points
 Bob McChesney, Washington caught four passes to lead the re. ceivers and Ralph Kercheval, Brook lyn, vas in a field goal tie to give the eastern division a representa- tion among the leaders. Bill Smith Cardinals, and Jack Manders, Chi cago Bears, were tied with Ierch. eval with one field goal each Smiths 39 yerd kick was the long est.

 PILLS AS CUBS
 AND CARDS WIN
Cincinnati Must Fight Hard to Win-Lieber's Bat
 Beats Ex-Mates
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY

Limited Press Staff Correspondent)
 New York, Sept. 20.-(UP).--The Cincinnati Reds pennant drive to- day bogged down to its lowest depths since June 1. With their lead trimmed to 21-2 games, the Reds cannot afford to dilly-dally from now on.
 In their most ludicrous exhibition O. the season, the league-leading Reds were humbled yesterday by the last-place Phillies, 13-1. Until yesterday, the Phils hadn't won a game from the Reds in Cincinnati ani had won only two out of their 19 games.
 But Kirby Higbe, the prize the Cubs let slip through their fingers to the Phils, had the Reds eating out of his big right hand. He let them down with six hits and didn't allow a run until the eighth, when he had an 11-run lead.
 The Reds did. everything wrong. The crippled Billy Myers made three errors befor. he was taken out. Bill Werher ad John Niggeling contribut-. ed two more for a total of five. Wander Nicer, who started, was wild and couldn'. come down the alley with anything on the ball. He was derricked with none out. The Phils collected B hits of Vader Nicer, Niggeling and Johnson, with Suhr's two doubles and Marty's triple and two singles doing the most damage.
 As the Reds lead melted to 21-2 games, the Cardinlas moved closer to the top than any time since June l, when hey trailed by only two games. With Southpaw Max Lanier, recently called in from the minors hurling a five-hit game, the Cards stopped the Dodgers rush, 6-1. St. Louis drove Vito Tabulis to cover in the fourth with three-run rally started by Owens double.
 Ex-Giant Stars
 Hank Leiber's Fist homer with mate on base featured the Cubs 3-2 victory over the Giants. Billy Her. mans single after Larry French had reached first on Danning's failure to hold a third strike produced the winning un. French went to second on a bAllr and counted on Herman's hit. French was credited with vic- tory No. IA.
 Rookie Bob Elliott's homer with a mate on base gave Pittsburgh a 5-3 victory over the Bees. Paul Waner went g for f." one triple, to his in his 20th consecutive game.
 Edgar Smith, White Sox cotton- topped southpaw and one-time Yam kee jinx, was powerless to stop the Bronx bombers, who rapped out a 6-2 triumph. Charley Keller's 10th homer featured the YanKee attack. Joe Dimaggio got "2 for f." Oral Hildebrand won his ninth game, al- lowing seven hits.
 Second Best
 The Red Sex further entrenched themselves in second pl ce by scor- i.e 6-2 win over the Browns. Jack Wilson scattered nine hits while the Red Sox made II of Trotter and Gill. Joe Cr-nin and Dock Cramer slapped out three hits apiece. Rudy York's pinch single with the bases loaded in the eighth enabled the Tigers to come from behind to beat the Athletics, 8-4. Buck New some held the As scoreless behind a 80 lead until the seventh when he blew up and the Mackmen scored

Pride in Home Ownership
Cited in Publication

There are satisfactions in home
ownership that cannot be measured
in dollars and cents, says the Small
Home Builders Year Book. You
may tie up capital in a house that
might earn more money in stocks
and bonds, but you will rarely get
from such an investment compa-
rable values in stability, pride of
possession and protection in times
of stress.
OF course, the publication points
out, there are risks in home owner
ship. The principal one is resale
value, which depends both on the
markets and on your judgment in
choosing a house that will always
be readily salable While no one
can foretell the state of the real
estate market. you can protect your
investment by selecting home that
has popular appeal, and by keeping
it in good condition. Seldom can an
investor in securities SO easily pro-
tect and insure the future value of
his holdings.
The first essential is a good de-
