Dick Fosters victory in the Dis
trict Junior golf championship gives
the 16-year-old Columbia Club
member leg on top-ranking hon.
ors for the teen-age golfers, but the
juniors have a full summer schedule
ahead and it's still anybody's race.

and in the Junior field days that
start next Tuesday at Columbia.
The tournament was played un-
der summer rules and several of the
Youngsters remarked it was the first
time they ever played without teeing
the ball up, and thus the scores
ran high.
Foster held a one-stroke margin
ever Don Dedrick, his victim OF the
previous day when Fosters Coolidge
High team defeated Dedrick's Will
son sextet in the playof for the
Dawes Cup. Dedrick was three over
par for II holes but slipped one over

winning score.
In addition to being junior champ,
schoolboy hnalist and captain OF
Coolidge's team, where he lost only
three matches, Foster won junior
honors in the Celebrities tourna-
ment.

Hoffman Acts 10 Stop
Wave Of Cotton Buying
IBy Nations ECA Aids
BY the Associoted Press

The Government acted yester-
day to halt a wave of "anticipa-
tory" cotton buying by foreign
countries which. officials said, is
pushing prices up needlesSly.
In formal letters, the Economi,
Co. operation Administration asked
the Marshall Plan countries anc
China to stop their world buying
and contracting for cotton in the
expectation that ECA will pay the
bill.
ECA Administrator Paul G. Hoff
man requested that all deals be
suspended, if American financing is
involved, until each country has
fled a detailed cotton-buyirg pro-
gram and ECA has approved it.
To avoid upsetting the cotton
market, Mr.. Hoffman withheld the
announcement until the commodity
exchanges closed at noon. After
grain, cotton is the largest item in
the European Recovery Program:
estimated first-year shipments are
$511 800, 900 to Europe and perhaps
s100, 900, 900 to China.
Warning Is Issued.
Mr.. Hoffman's food director, D
A. Fitzgerald, backed up the request
with this warning:
Unless the foreign countries SUBJ
NIT their cotton programs "in an
orderly manner" and permit ECA to
work out a sound purchasing pro-
gram, more rigid controls" may be
imposed by the Government.
The request covers buying else
where than in the United States,
Mr.. Fitzgerald said. However, this
country will supply the bulk of Mar
shall plan cotton and no proposals
for purchase elsewhere have been
received so far.
The advance buying Is tending
to bull the market unnecessarily be-
fore the new crop comes in," Mr..
Fitzgerald told reporters.
China Causes Difficulty.
China has caused the greatest
difficulty, he said. Chinese con-
tracts for 100000 bales, or S60,000,-
900 worth Of cotton, have been made
in the hope that China will later
collect from ECA," he reported. ECA
has approved only 5000, 900 in cot
ton exports to China so far. That
would buy $1,000 bales.
Mr.. Hoffman, meanwhile, pushed
ahead with other foreign-ai buying.
He approved the purchase of $685.
622 in food and recovery goods for
five European countries-Austria,
Greece, the Netherlands, Norway
and France-and $5,239,880 for
China.
The authorizations brought the
total for Europe to $134, 1895, ,167 06,
including freight costs. More than
half. Mr.. Hoffman said, is being
bought by the countries through
private trade channels, and the rest
through United States Government
purchase.
