Martin Tells 6. 0. P.
To Be Prepared for
Return 10 Power i
Saws New Dealer Remarked
Public Debt Could Be
Increased to 140 Billion

The Republican party was under
warning today from its national
chairman, Representative Martin OF
Massachusetts, to prepare itself in
telligently for national leadership in
the years to come and to exercise
vigilance in policing and auditing
the Roosevelt administration in the
present emergency.
The two great dangers confronting
the Nation, Mr. Martin said in an
address broadcast last night over the
Columbia Broadcasting System, are
that some groups may seek to make
use of our present emergency and
the great burden Of debt we are pill
ing up to destroy our economic and
political system" and that "the Re-
publican party, suddenly returned to
power through reaction against the
New Deal, might lack a carefully
prepared program of action"
New Dealer Quoted.
"As to the first danger" he said,
"a New Dealer recently said, in
private, the public debt probably
could be increased to as much as
$140, 900 100000, at which point the
public credit probably would break
and the Government would then step
in and nationalize everything.
"As to the second danger, any
party called upon in 1914 to meet
the grave problems which the New
Deal administration has for more
than eight years left unSolved will
have an extremely difficult task. We
Republicans are busy studying these
problems now. We will be we'll pre-
pared for the task that lies ahead"
mo Time for Strikes"
OF the national defense program,
he said, "profiteering, contract rack
eteering or partisan spending will
not be tolerated by people who
see their very future menaced."
This is no time" he continued,
"for strikes or lockouts which pre-
vent us from achieving the earliest
possible adequate national defense.
No honest American workman wants
to defeat the security Of his coun-
try. Under honest, patriotic
leadership, American workers will
respond to the call of their country
as readily as those men who serve
under arms. -
The Nation demands production
and more production. 1t demands
efficiency and patriotism above
selfishness. The call is impera-
tive. ="

Rabaut Will Ask Dies
To LIST 'Subversive'
Federal Employees
Wants F. B. |. to Have
Peace League Names
For Its Investigation

A new development came today
in the proposed investigation Of
Federal employees and their relation
ships with so-called subversive Or
ganizations when Representative
Rabaut, Democrat, of Michigan said
he would ask the Dies Committee to
provide the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation with its list of approxi-
mately 573 Federal workers who are
alleged to have been on the rolls Of
the American League for Peace and
Democracy.
In the Justice Department budget,
approved yesterday, 100000 was
earmarked for such an investigation
by the F. B. I. 1t was carried in an
amendment introduced by Repre-
sentative Jones, Republican, of Ohio.
Mr.. Rabaut said he would make
the request to Chairman Dies as
result of a conversation he had with
J. Edgar Hoover, F. B. I. director,
in which Mr.. Hoover is said to have

Representative Jones said he would
ask the Dies Committee also to
provide Mr.. Hoover with a list of
Federal employees who are "sus-
pected of connection with subversive
agencies, and that he would trans
init personally several names that
had been given to him. He added
that a number of Government en-
ployes had complained to him about
persons going through some depart
ments asking Federal workers to

The Dies Committee last year
branded the American League for
Peace and Democracy a Communist
front organization. After publication
of the names of members, many
Federal workers denied any connec-
tion with the organization.
Mr.. Rabaut said he had consulted
Mr.. Hoover because he did not want
to see the general F. B. I. appropria-
ton "nicked" for 100000 for a
special purpose unless there is need
for it. Unless the money is used for
the specific investigation. it will re-
vert to the Treasury. Mr.. Rabaut
also said he would like to see the
language of the amendment clari-
fed before final passage.

nth Club Makes New Baer Edition Best Seller
Burn-Of-Month
Big Buddy's Appearance
 Against Louis Will Be Brief
BY HARRY CRIMSON NEA Service Sports Editor

Washington, May le-Buddy Baer has little to recommend him other than size, and there is much too of that, yet The Bum-of- the-Month Club is making its current end en- larged edition a best seller at Grif- fith Stadium, May 23.
 With a heavy Negro vote solidly behind Joe Louis, indications are that Publisher Jacobs will dispose of 30,000 sopies at from $2,50 to $l5 for a $l50,00 gate.
 Cabinet members, senators, con- gressmen, White House attaches and members of the various lega- tons, attracted by what Is adver- tised as the capitals first world heavyweight championship fight, are advised to squeeze into their seats early.
 Against a formidable opponent, Buddy Baer has more pro- nounced inferiority complex than his brother Max,
 He Is slower than was Swain in the Kentucky Derby and there Is so much of him to be hit-6 feet 6A inches and 240 pounds -- that his appearance against Louis is eX- pected to be brief.
 Buddy Baer, whom the bally- hooers say Is out to avenge the knockout of his brother, landed the appointment when in a Washing ton match the washed-up never was, roly-poly Tony Galento, re- signed as did Max in his affair with Louis. .

WASH|NGT'N HILL CLUB, QUESTIONS
 UMP|RE'S RULING
Late Play Spells League Slate; Pals, TOmmies,
 Tribunes Win
CITY AMATEUR LEAGUE

The sun that shone so brightly on an old Kentucky home; an um- pire's right to call a baseball game when Old Sol gets too tough on the eyes of the ump and the standout team of the City Amateur league to dtae, Sacred Heart Pals. will be the subjects of discussion for Q day or two.
 Technically, the Washington Hills, through Manager Red Jim Gladney intend to protest the judgment of Umpire Charley Guglielmo for stop ping the Hills-Sacred Heart Pals game in the eighth inning, with the score 13 to Il in the Pals favor.
 North End Tommies mad belat- ed start toward another champion ship when they edged the Brooklny A. c. 6"5 at the Municipal Stadium; |; while the Overlooks were shut out l5-0 by the Tribunes In Hamilton Park game. AS result of the days games, the Pals, unable to crash in- to the league for two seasons, have proven themselves the best of the league to date, with two wins and yet to meet defeat which put them right on top of the pile, monarchs of all they survey and all alone, at least until next Sunday.
 One-Sided
 The Hills"PalS game was pretty much of a walkaway in the seventh, Gladney's Gimmicks trailing 3 to l3, when Umpire Guglielmo, who knows his baseball rules, decided to call the game. A loud squaWk made him change his mind and so another h. hing, during which the Hills picked up eight runs, but were still trailing 13-ll. Charley the ump picked up his mask and chest protector, satrt- ed for the exit, said the gme was off because the sinknig sun interefered with clear vision behind the plate and took 1t on the lam for his car, picking up a few cops enroute so that he would get flying start for home and supper, as 1t was then nearing 8 p. m. and little for base- ball not under lights. the Hills yelpS to the contrary notwithstanding. At any rate, the game stands l3-ll for the Pals, and once the Hill man. agement is shown the rule govern ing umpires Jurisdiction of . game, the protest will probably be with drawn.
 The boys lost no time strating as the Hills scored first then the Pals caught them, the Hills went ahead again and the Pals came back with five runs and a 6-2 lead before the fourth inning. Ralph Bradley pitch- ed four hit ball for nearly seven innings, then had to run for trans portation to his army camp in Rhode Island. It was l3-3 in the seventh, when Ump Gug gave the Hills an extra inning, which pro- duced eight runs as Sullivan, Dem his and Jacobino were shelled, Mike Mobile clearing the bases with three run triple. For the Pals, Ri- naldi drove In six runs with four hits and Benson scored four runs. Summary:

 Explosion Shot To Within Four Feet Of Hole Gives Runyan Victory Thrill
BY ART KRENZ NEA Service Golf Writer

An explosion shot out of q trap on the final hole of the Metropol- itan Open of 1884 gave Paul Run- van as much satisfaction as any he can recall.
 Runyan required g par to win, c 6 to tie.
 The Little Man With the Big Spoon hit his second into the trap to the right of the green.
 It looked as If there would be a three-way tie. Walter Hagen and Wify Cox finished with 288 over the Echo Lake Country Club course at Westfield, N. J.
 But Runyan, selecting 0 1ib- lick, exploded the ball to within four feet of the can.
 Assured of tic, the Metropolis Country Club professional tapped the pellet in for 2S7 and the championship.
 The explosion shot is the surest way of getting out of sand.
 Unlike an iron shot off the fair- way, in which the ball is struck before turf is taken. the explosion calls for sand to be struck first. At Impact the weight should be

 Squires was called the Australian quince because he fell like on over- ripe one leaving the parent stem. BOXING GAME NEEDS SOME FINISHED FOLDER -UPPERS
 Beckett, the daddy of them all. and Welles never failed to live up to the fine old tradition of British heavyweights. Theirs was a perma- nent resin rash and they fell straight forward.
 Fulton took nine on Q dirty look when he didn't fall automatically upon leaving his stool.

 Rojas slid to the deck like an avalanche in his native Andes.
 Scott's falling was marred by claims of foul. Phainting Phil got out everything, including injunc- tons, en route to the floor.
