...would not otherwise be taking part in spring athletics, and the voluntary basis of attendance, make it possible to reconcile it with the oft-proclaimed policy of "Athletics for All" on other grounds than the coldly material one of dollars and cents. There are indications, however, that it may develop into work rather than sport, into requirement rather than opportunity. A natural desire to balance future H.A.A. budgets by producing winning teams that will increase gate receipts does not justify more and more emphasis on the duty of spring practice.

But what they keep asking is how rigid rules and laws can permit business to develop or expand at all. The 30-hour week bill in its present form is a big obstacle, in the opinion of most of the industrial and business delegates here for the big NRA meetings, and there is reason to believe that General Johnson's opposition to a flat 30-hour week is shared by the President...
