upsetting her is Helen Bernhard.

NtA Service Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK. Aug. 31.-The Ma

presents two extremes in viewpoint
when it comes to naming likely win,
ners.

Not so in the mems bracket
where the three top choices have
been none too consistent.
Defending Champion Bobby Riggs
beat Frank Kovacs in five sets for
the Seabright Invitational.
Don Mcneil defeated Riggs for
the National Clay Courts title in
Chicago and Kovacs for the New
port Casino crown.

ship ...
He appeared handcuffed while
losing the Eastern Grass Courts
title to Frankie Parker.
Only Don Bulge or an Ellis
worth Vines could be expected to
completely dominate an entire sea
son of play.
Which merely indicates the alb
sence of a top-flight favorite for
the 1910 men'c singles crown.
VAN HORN DARK HORSE;
HUNT NOT QUITE READY
Welby Van Horn, the lanky 49,
year-old Californian who is regard
ed as future champion by Flea
nor Tenrant. coach of Miss Marble
is a dark horse.
A powerful player with all the
strokes. Van Horn needs only
little more tournament tempering
before he's ready for the big cup
If you must have a favorite ii
should be Riggs. The tiny defending
champion appears to have dropped
some of his retrieving tactics and
has shown a little more aggres-
siveness.
Riggs usually manages to rise to |
the occasion.
Joe Hunt, the Annapolis midship- |
man, is another who must be given /
serious consideration. His academy /
schedule prevented him from get
ting in as much pre-tournament
play as he would have liked and
needed

War With Japan?
Cincinnati Enquirer)

From high places have warnings that actual hostlites with Japan may come. Such warn ings, which not flat predictions of course have a double function. They prepare the minds of Americans for unpalatabe but very real poSs- bility And they reemphasize the warnings the gov- ernment has given repeatedly to Japan
 It needs to be remembered that the American Government is not pursuing provocative policy. It does not seek war But it is charged with protect ing national interests and national safety It could not discharge this obligation by the appease ment of Japan It could not take the responsibility for allowing Japan to encroach on the Dutch East Indies, Southern Indo-Chna, because that would place the United States at too grave dis advantage in the future.
 The State Department is obliged to consider what our position will be if Britain should fall, and if the British fleet were to disappear This does not seem likely In that dread contingency this country would face Rome e-Berin- Tokyo combination far superior in naval power to ourselves. If in addi- tlon to this, Japan were in possession of bases in the South Pacific and territories from which we de- rive whole supply of rubber and tin, our stra- tegic position would be grevous.
 It is to forestall such disastrous situation that the government is taking steadily firmer line in the Far East. This is courting a needless war. It is the exercise of a necessary foresight. If t should result in war, the blame will rest with Japan who is invading peaceful states gigantic plan Of conquest It is Japan who is breaking treaties, who is defying international law and who is adopt ing an intransigent policy Our position is no than reluctant defense of territorial status quo which Japan, among other states has given an unqualified promise to respect
 It is to be hoped that American and British warnings, supplemented by economic pressure will plundering of the nations and colonies around the South China Sea

Democratic National Committeeman from Montana and attorney for the lead company, seemed to exercise vast influence.
 But today, things are different The change began when Frank Mur- phy become Attorney General, and has continued under Bob Jackson. An audit is now being conducted of the Eagle Picher operations, to de- termine how much by-product they got from the ore in question.
 When this is completed, Justice Department intends to intervene" in the case, and, in the words of one official, 'our claims will be very substantial Meantime, Eagle Picher has indicated that it might settle the case.
 NOTE: Largest single beneficiary will be white man named Merton Cooper who had been fighting the case for ten years, as the next friend of Harry Crawfish,' Quapaw Indian. Cooper took the case on contingent fee basis, and will get one third of the settlement figure.

mean a free hand with the British fleet for Hitler to penetrate Latin America.
 After all, the Nazi argument re- garding this can be very convincing to the British Why should England and Germany, the argument runs, destroy their factories and set back their trade for years, only to let the United States take advantage of the situation by extending itself in Lat in America? Why not patch up a peace on the basis of the Far East for Britain and Latin America for Germany? There is plenty of room in the two areas for both and no reason why the United States should spread a filmsy Monroe Doctrine over an empty continent
 So runs the German argument, and it can be made very plausible to beleaguered and desperate Brit ish business. However. there is not much chance of it being accepted now. But should American aid to Britain diminish, then the British appeasement group might have its way.

DIES FRIEND

Being tWo-fisted battler is one way to make name for yourself in Congress, but it's not always a help to popularity. However, Represen- tative Frank Fries of Illinois has made the policy work both ways.
 Some of the Congressman whom Fries has battled the hardest arc his cloest friends. Notable example is Chairman Martin Dies of the un- Americanism investigating commit tee. Fries at first fought Dies be- cause he objected to his publicity seeking antics.
 But when the dynamic Texan changed his tune, and settled down to serious Investigating, Fries chang ed his, with the result that the two men now are warm friends.
 Few know it, but Fries, an ex- service man who began working in Illinois mines at the age of 13. had a lot to do with putting over an ad- ditional $35,000 for the Dies com mlttee several years ago. A number oi those who voted against the prev ious sloO,o00 appropriation were planning to vote against Dies again But Fries stopped them.
 You are making big mistake, D he warned. Like you, opposed the committee at first, but Dies has been going places against fifth columnists Tn the last six months. Anyone who

 All good Americans will hope that partisanshp is at an end that the wounds of the campaign will heal rapidly, that a united nation will go to work on its many pressing problems
 Jim Farley and Frank Knox were on the air early last night, making statesmanlike appeals for national unity pledging that the victors would be magnanimous and urging that the vanquished would be cooperative.

FORGOTTEN INDIANS

A group of B Quapaw Indians. with such names as Crawfish and Whitebird, seem about to receive settlement of their long standing claim against the Eagle Picher Lead Company, which may run into mil lions of dollars.
 This is big news for the Indians but it is also significant of a new order of things inside the Justice Department.
 The claim against the Eagle Pich- CT alleges that the Indians got short measure when the ore was weighed at the Oklahoma mines, and that they got nothing at all for certain by-products such as sulphur.
 The suit was sponsored by the h. dian Bureau under the Hoover Ad- ministration and was pushed even more vigorously by the same bureau under Roosevelt. But it struck snags in Roosevelt's first-term Justice De- partment, where Bruce Kremer once

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compe"
THURSDAY. NOVEMBER

After early morning adverse as- poets rule today Under this con- figuration the urge toward con- structive effort may be overcome by depression or Encouragement. Bad news will affect initiative.
 Heart and Home: Women may be restless under this sway, but they should concentrate upon rou- tine tasks. College girls should train themselves for practical work especially for nursing or the pro- fession of medicine. Warning has been given that there will be much illness toward the end of the win- ter Epidemics, forecast as likely to reach this country from Eu- rope, are to be met with scientific preparation. Women are to mend the torn fabric of the worlds life.
 Business Affairs: Demand for trained hands in many trades will be fortunate for efficient men and women. Unemployment will shrink, but the number of the unfit will be surprising The stars presage amazing discoveries regarding the effects of idlenesS and alcohol Trade schools will contribute much to the great army of American Workmen. It seems safe for mer- chants to prepare for a lively holi- day trade in which shoppers will require gifts that are useful.
 National Issues: Conservation of the nations natural resources will be of foremost concern. Lavish liv- ing will be curtailed as the need of helping war victims is impressed upon persons of every grade of prosperity Thrift, so long preached by the seers, now will be taught as economic conditions in the United States reflect world changes. True democracy will be demonstrated in a fellowship of kindliness and gen. eroSity.
 International Affairs. Spanish refugees are to come to the West ern Hemisphere in large numbers. They will be welcomed by Mexico and will establish a new kinship with Southern California, it is foretold. Immigration laws in the United States will be relaxed to meet. a world condition which pres ages such a varied influx of Euro peanS as has never been visioned in the past The best blood of many nations is to mingle with that of the Americas.
 Persons whose birthdate it Is have an augury of changes and perplexities which will not inter- fere with good fortune. The urge to spend money should be overcome.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be independent and diff cult to control. They may like ad- venture and may be reckless in their courage

Total Class IA Registrants in US. 100000 = State quota
 What this means is that 100000 men will be called all told, and they all will be Class IA registrants (men without any allowed deferments). Of this 100000, each state will supply number proportional to the number of Class IA men registered in that state
 Exmple: If there are 100000 Class IA registrants in the nation, and given State has 2,000 of these, the formula would work out like this:
 2,000 X 100000 = 200 = State
 quota. 100000
 Not all the 200, however would be called in the first draft, since from the figure would be deducted the number of State residents serving in the National Guard, regular Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard
