NEW YORK, July 23. (Special.)
How can anyone explain why a shot
eocs wrong in golf? A player may
be slicing badly all of today; he may
have hooked more than half his drives
yesterday and tomorrow he may drive
accurately with consistency. His
varying form is no easy tiling to
ilia gnose.
The chances are that he himself
does no't know Just why his driving
or his general play is so different
from his play of another day.
In the 36-hole best-ball match that
Harry Vardon and I won yesterday
from Jerome D. Travers and Oswald
.Kirby over the course of the Wood
way Country club at SprlngdaUe,
Conn., Klrby was hooking his drives
often and widely. He had to go Into

second stroke. I confess I don't
know why he was hooking. An ac

Match W on 5 Up, 4 to Go.
We won the match by 5 up and 4
to play. And an interesting match it
was throughout. We were 3 up at
the end of the morning round.
Travers covered the first 18 holes in
73 strikes, which is one over par;
Kirby made it in 84; Vardon in 76
and I in 72. In the afternoon Travers
made the course in 80, Kirby in 79,
A erdon in 73 and I In 72. Travers
and Kirby had- a best ball score for
the entire 2fi holes of 147. Vardon
anil I had 139.
But to get back to discussion of
whys and wherefores, a very plausi
b!e reason for Kirby's hooking his
drives was that the shaft of his club
.was slipping in his hands. My club
supped- several times during the day.
The weather was very warm and I
perspire'd freely. I assume that the
others perspired as much. Hands
were wet and an Immovable grip was
scarcely possible at times.
Another possibility was that he was
playing for length in his drives; If a
golfer plays unnaturally for length,
his right hand, which carries the
greater power in the stroke, will have
a part Mn directing the ball in its
flight. It will to some degree make
the path of the ball. The left hand
Is the guiding hand and in a stroke
where the greatest posible length Is
being attempted, the left hand does

LEW1STOK, Idaho, July 23. (Spe

here have petitioned for an Increase
In -warehouse rates for handing the
1920 grain crop, a meeting of the
public utilities commission has been
called for July 27 to conduct a hear
ing on the petition. State Commis
sioner of Agriculture Miles Cannon
has extended a general invitation to
Interested persons to appear before
the commission and express views.
He is particularly anxious to get
the opinion of farmers.
The application of the warehouse
operators asks that they be allowed
an increase from II to 11.23 a ton
for handing grain in warehouse, $1
to f 1.25 a ton for sacking bulk grain
and from $2 to $2.25 a ton for sacking
wool. ' . .
The application for ihe Increase is
based on the grounds that cost of
labor and other expense Incident to
conducting warehouse have advanced
to such an extent that warehouses
cannot be operated at formed rates
without entailing a loss.
Denial that wasteful methods of
distributors are responsible to any
degree in keeping up the price of
milk In Portland is made by C. M.
Gregory, representative of the dis
tributors, who produced city records
yesterday to' show that the majority
of farmers distributing their own
milk charge from 1 to 2 cents more
for a quart than is charged ,for milk
distributed through a middleman.
"The question has been repeatedly
raised in" Portland as to the alleged
wasteful and inefficient methods of
the city milk plants," he said. "I
wish, to call attention to the fact that
there are In the city about 15 central
plants which, with approximately 60
wagons, are delivering- about 15.0DU
gallons of milk. There are in addi
tion to this about 130 farmers who
are licensed to distribute milk. It
is said that about 60 per cent of them
are members of the Dairymen's Co
operative league.
Farmrri Held to Charge Mine.
"It would seem that this apparent
elimination of the middleman, with
the further fact that the farmer does
not have any expense for standard!-
xation, pasteurisation, refrigeration.
nor the overhead which city plants
have, should result in lower prices to
the consumer. Tet records of the city
health bureau ehow that the majority
of these farmers receive from 1 to
cents more a quart for milk of equal
quality."' .
'After quoting government figures
on the market price for milk through
out the United States, which showed
that Portland paid considerably more
than the average, Mr. Gregory asked:
"Why has the producer any cause
for complaint In this market? It
would seem that 60 per cent of the
milk producrs throughout the United
States are able to maintain their
herds oh an average price of eome 40
cents a 100 pounds les than the city
of Portland price, and the remaining
40 per cent receive an average price
of 20 cents 100 pounds less than Is
received here.
"The reason there Is any cause for
complaint is that the producer does
not actually receive the quoted price
for his milk by reason of the en
croaching of the league, which ex
acts a surplus fee and operation fee.'
Maalpalatlom Held Eany.
Air. Gregory pointed out that the
extreme perishable quality of milk
made it easily subject to manipula
tion by dairymen s organizations
whereas such combinations could not
control the price of milk used by
creameries, condenserles or cheese
factories because of the law of na
tlonal supply and demand which
would send a flood of outside pro
ducts to a place where local prices
are temporarily boosted by a coir
bination. "The result of the ease with whih
raw milk may be manipulated by a
combination is that dairymen around
the larger cities seize this oppor
tunity to Increase their demands to a
point out of proportion to any price
that actual conditions warrant," as
serted Mr. Gregory.
"This creates a market in the city
which is so much 'more attractive
than the market in other nearby dis
tricts that the dairymen in thee
districts divert their milk from the
cheese factories, creameries and con
denserles to the city in order to
obtain the greater proceeds. This
results In the supply exceeding the
demand. What happens?
Surplus Declared Held Oat.
"A portion of this milk must be
withheld from the market, as it would
soon break the price to a level which
would approximate that paid in the
butter and cheese markets if allowed
to run loose. To overcome this con
dition the dairymen's organizations
withdraw the excess or surplus milk
from the market and themselves man
ufacture such surplus into butter,
cheese or other by-products.
"There is necessarily a loss In con
nection with this proceeding, since
they must sell their by-products from
high-priced milk in competition with
other producers in districts where
lower prices prevail. It would be im
possible for the- dairymen's organiza
tion to select any certain number of

The members would withdraw from

Rises Follow Each Other.
Instead the league of producers
pro-rates that loss to every indi
vidual who ships milk into the city
and is a member of the organization.
This deduction soon comes to an
amount as great or greater than the
difference between the price paid for
whole milk and the price received for
milk for manufacturing purposes. To
offset the dissatisfaction this would
cause, the dairymen must force an
additional increase on the city market
sufficient to absorb surplus costs and
commissions, and still give the pro
ducer a margin over outside markets.
The result is inevitable. More low-
priced milk flows to the high market.
increasing the surplus, increasing the
pro-rata loss, increasing the cost to

the public can pay the price no longer

'It is this condition, and this only,
that -the distributors in the city of
Portland are opposing today. We
have no quarrel with the dairymen
nor have we any quarrel with any
bona fide producers' association

of ail concerned, and is not used to

At least Jen persons were killed last

middleweight boxing title, $20,000 to
meet Mike O'D.owd, the ex-champlon,

In view of the fact that this ma

view, also, of the serious accident
yesterday, I recommend that his driv

Over the ' long-distance telephone
last night from Seaside, Motorcycle
Patrolman Simkins denied that he
had introduced Mrs. Imhoff to Adams
last Wednesday or any other day. He
said he did not know Mrs. Imhoff and
had never introduced a Woman of
that name to Adams. He said he was
a close personal friend of the injured
automobile salesman and that they
had once, lived In adjoining apart
ments, but he could not account for
the statement reported to have been
made by Adams to Sheriff Needham
at Salem.
"So far as I remember I did not
even see George on Wednesday.'
a Missouri Simpkins said. "Neither did I know
this Mr. Clauss who is reported to
have been a member of the Adams
automobile party. I cannot under
stand how my name became involved
In the case."
Scheme for Construction of Huge
Terminal Here Impracticable,
Asserts City Engineer.
City Engineer Laurgaard will re
port to the city council Wednesday
that until A. P. Gillies, president of
the Consolidated Americanadlan Term
inal association, can show definite
financial backing and prove that theJ
railroads indorse his project, the City
of Portland will not be justified in
taking any action regarding tie plan
for construction of a huge terminal
here and unification of the terminals
in Portland, Seattle and Vancouver,
B". C.
Mr. Laurgaard expressed the belief
that Mr. Gillies has not the necessary
financial backing and lacks also the
support of the railroads, without
which his immense scheme Is Impos
sible. He said that Howard Elliott,
chairman of the board of directors of
the Northern Pacific railroad, de
clared when he was in Portland
Wednesday that he knew nothing
about Mr. Gillies or his plan for the
unification of terminals.
"The Idea Itself is a splendid one,"
said Mr. Laurgaard. "It sounds
plausible and is. attractive, but after
looking into the engineering details
I find it impracticable.
"The plan is an immense one, but
the difficulties are tremendous, and
it Is doubtful if what Gillies desires
could be accomplished in one man's
lifetime."
Commissioner Barbur, to whom the
matter was referred for Investigation,
has not taken it very seriously, con
sidering Mr. Uillies plan too vague
and visionary.
Even If Gillies could furnish the
necessary $150,000,000. and I doubt If
he could do that, I am not sure that I
would be in favor of the proposition
he said.
"I doubt If there Is anything back
of the Gillies scheme," Samuel Mur
ray, acting chief engineer of the Ore
gon. Washington Railroad & Naviga
Hon company, said yesterday.
