Finch Fears D. {. will
0verspend New Taxes

Wilbur S. Finch, a past presi-
dent Of the Federation of Citizens
Associations, last night expressed
the fear that the District Gov
ernment will over-estimate the
receipts to be collected from the
new sales tax. thus causing new
taxes to be levied.
Mr.. Finch. speaking at the Bur-
roughs Citizens Association meet
ing. urged that the members give
approval to proposal by Ken
meth P. Armstrong. a member,
that the Federation set up a COM
mittee to study budget planning
by District Government officials in
the ALLEGATION of. sales tax receipts.
"The department heads are un-
certain how much money will be
collected by the sales tax" Mr..
Finch said, ''yet they are already
making plans to spend the money"
He pointed out that in Maryland
the sales tax resulted in lower in
come taxes but that this will not
be the result in the District un-
less budget estimates are tied in
closely with sales tax receipts.
"The subject Of taxes could be-
come vicious circle" Mr.. Finch
added. 'The money collected will
be spent. The revenue received
will not be sufficient. New taxes
will be needed. The end result
will be that we shall again end
UP with system of deficit f.
nancing such as we are trying to
get away from"
The association unanimously
agreed that the Federation should
take prompt action to set up the
committee suggested.

A pair of pitchers who be-

The Alexandria Recreation

All Of this applies to the Al

coached by Russell Herrick.
Herrick divides his time be-
tween this labor Of love and
beating the bushes for future
Washington Mats.
Gerald McRae is the 700

In batting practice prior to a
game with the Lancaster Pao
Boys Club, he poled one over
the clubhouse. some $50 feet
from the plate at Stumpf Field,
Lancaster's minor league sta
dium.
Herrick depends for most Of
his pitching on Sonny Sheffield
and Olin CHM. Sheffield has
won 18 games and CHM 13.
"Ginn has pitched three no.
hitters this year." says Her
rick. Sheffield doesn't have
any no-hitters. He just 'strug-

No Handicap, British
Walker Cuppers Say
" the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-Britain's
Walker Cup golfers don't expect
any trouble adjusting themselves
to Americas thick-carpeted, tree
lined courses and other unfamiliar
playing conditions.
st think the boys should feel
right at home in few days." said
Comdr. j. A. S. Carson, manager
of the team that is here to try
to wrest the international trophy
from the Americans August 1920.
''Oh, no, your courses shouldn't
bother U.S." added big Samuel Max
(call me Maxi McCready, the
British Amateur champion who
will lead the assault against Uncle
Sans hand-picked amateurs.
The Walker Cup matches will
be played over Winged Foot at
Mamaroneck, N. Y, layout that
bears little resemblance to the
barren, dune-dotted and wind
swept championship courses Of the
British Isles.
Willie Turnesa, the United States
National Amateur champion, said
on his recent return from England
that a golfer needs a full month
to readjust his game to the diff
ferent conditions.
Greens Could Bother Britons.
Normally, that might be true. !"
explained Carson, who is also Sec
retary of Britain's reigning links
body, "but our players have been
working out on park courses and
these are lot like your own.
1.-THE championship courses are
seaside affairs with no trees and
much sand and wind. If our boys
played on them all the time the
changeover would be difficult"
Three members Of the 10-man
British team, which arrived In
New York yesterday, have played
in America before.
Capt. Laddie Lucas and Cecil
Ewing were members OF the 1886
team that bowed to the United
States at Pine Valley in Clemen-
ton, N. j., 80. Lucas was unable to
compete in the matches, however,
because of illness.
McCready, a 6-foot, 200-pound
Irishman. taught student Raj
pilots at Maxwell Field, In Mont
gomery. Ala, from 1910 to 1912.
and, he says, played courses in
Alabama and Georgia.
"The greens are the only thing
that should trouble us at first
they have a different nap" he
said.
After Turnesa Again.
McCready eliminated Frank
Stranahan in the quarter finals
and Willie Turnesa in the final
en- route to the British Amateur
crown at Portmarnock earlier this
year.
He is anxious for another crack
at TurneSa in the United States
Amateur August 20 to September
3 at Rochester, N. Y, and, he adds
quickly. with the same result"
The visitors planned to rest to-
day and take their first shot at
the Winged Foot course tomorrow.
Other members are Ernest Mill
ward. Gerald Micklem, Joseph
Carr, James Bruen, Kenneth
Thorn, Ronald White and Arthur
Perowne.
It's regarded as one of the
stoutest Walker Cup teams ever
assembled by the British. Since
1922, when the series started, the
United States has won 10 and
lost only once-in 1888.
