Fi|ipinos Are Urged
To Go Home 10 He|p

A national Filipino organization
in this country to get more of them
to return to help the country pre-
pare for independence, was urged at
dinner last night in honor of
Francisco Varona, labor assistant to
the Resident Commissioner of the
Philippines.
DR.. Varona said that the big prob
lem now is preparing for independ-
ence which is only six years of. He
urged them to study the problems
here so that they will be able to
solve their problems at home.
DR.. Pedro Orata, another speaker,
said now is the time the govern
ment Of the Philippines should pro-
vide attractions for Filipinos in this
country. He pointed out that there
are many educated Filipinos in this
country who should go back to their
native land, and they should go, he
said, even If they have to 60 without
a diploma. They are needed, he
added, 20 run the businesses in the
islands, repair the machines, act as

many other jobs for which they have
been fitted through their training in

Steel" From DR.. Emmett j. Scott,
another outstanding Negro spokes-
man, there now comes to me a Wig
orous denial of that affirmation. DR..
Scott, at present attached to the
Republican National Committee as
an adviser on Negro affairs. roundly
indicts the New Deal for withhold
ing a square deal from the colored
race. The Roosevelt administration,
DR.. Scott holds, "has done little to
end color discrimination, but a great
deal to prolong it. He finds "the
Southern tail still wagging the DEM
ocratic dog" While 1t is true that
a large number of colored men
have been placed in executive jobs
in Government agencies. DR.. Scott
thinks Jim Crowism has spread
over the country where it never ex-
listed before" only to find President
Roosevelt remaining silent in the
presence of documentary evidence of
color discrimination in almost every
New Deal setup." Even the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board is ac-
cused of upholding the discrimina-
tory color bar against Negroes in
union labor. "It must still remain
for the great Masses of colored
voters" declares DR.. Scott, ito de-
eide at the polls whether the guar

Mckinley and Third Term.
President Roosevelt has chal-
lenged his White House press con-
ference to give one good reason"
why he should disclose his third
term attitude. A constituent of this
column writes that President Nc
Kinley gave such reason on June
10, 1901, when he issued the follow
ing public statement:
I regret the suggestion of
third term that has been made.
l doubt whether I am called
upon to give it any notice. but
there are now questions of
gravest Importance before the
administration and the country
and their just consideration
should not be prejudiced in the
public mind by even the sus-
picion of the thought of third
term. In view, therefore, of the
reiteration of the suggestion,
will say now, once for all. ex-
pressing long-settled convic-
ton, that not only am not and
will not be candidate for third
term, but would not accept
nomination if rendered me. My
only ambition is to serve through
my second term to the accept
ance of my countrymen, whose
generous confidence I so deeply
appreciate, and then with them
to do my duty in the ranks of
private citizens.

Beset by the twin evils of a sudden
attack of influenza and the open
championship jitters. Benny Hogan,
the betting boy from White Plains,

Betting Benny walloped the ball

yesterday against Snead's 81 and
the people who have watched Hogan
smash par round after round are
waiting for the l38-pounder to un-
leash 81 or so and take the lead.
Hogan went to bed a couple of
nights ago suffering severe chill
He had a CLINICAL temperature of

Benny was and is very good golfer

Hogan Hard to Head OF.
He got into the championship on
a pass, when Frank Strafaci gave
him his place after Hogan failed to
qualify. He shouldn't even be here.
But he is here and he'll be hard to
nudge out of the championship. not
withstanding the Sneads and the
Smiths and the other gents who
lead him by a few shots.
Benny Hogan today remains one
best bet to win the National Open
golf championship.
OF course. there's Snead with an

Strokes Away
BY EARL HILLIGAN.

CLEVELAND, June THE field
in the 44th National Open golf
championship answered the second
round bell today, convinced that
"Slamming Sam" Snead-knocked
out year ago by one of sports
greatest bloWups-is off the floor and
punching harder than ever.
Long an outstanding power player,
Snead garnished his distance getting
ability with a brilliant display of
putting and approaching Yesterday
to come in with remarkable s.
under-par card of 33-34-67. the
greatest flrst-round performance in
National Open history.
This gave the young Shawnee-on-
Delaware. Pa, professional a two
stroke lead on the pack as it started
a second 18-hole trek over the Can
terbury course, and practically had
every one believing that Sam has
recovered fully from that disastrous
flnal-hole eight which robbed him
OF the Open crown at Philadelphia
in 1899.
rive BRIDES BY Snead.
Snead, who never has won major
championship even though he has
been a big money and tournament
winner since 1887, produced a game
as hot as the sun which baked the
Canterbury layout. He had five
brides, never was over par and was
in the rough only three times. He
clipped par on the second. fifth.
eighth, 18th and 18th holes with putt,
ranging from to 35 feet. and pro-
duced the picture" shot of the first
round on No. Is, hooking a shot
around tree.
Sneads performance made him
the frst-round leader in three of the
last four Opens. He and Denny
Shute tied at 68 in the first round
IN 1887, when he finished second at
Oakland Hills. Last year at Phila-
delphia his SO was the opening
