Ii there was any doubt in the minds of Warren district fans prior to the fight card of Friday night concerning the ability of Russell Chambers of Douglas to take pun ishment and to stand up under it. that doubt was dispelled, when he met Johnnie Celmars. For rugged strength and courage he put him self on a par with Frank Loughrey, the Philadelphia welterweight who has proved himself a glutton for punishment, and whose staying pow CTS have been the admiration of the district since he first showed here. And these are the two boys who are going to meet at Warren park on the afternoon of Armistice Day Tuesday-to settle a question of re- spective ability which has kept fans busy guessing since, their first en- counter, many weeks ago.
 The boys have met before and with honors that are practically even over Loughrey in the first fight while the second was a draw. Both have fought Johnnie Celmars to draws. The fight on Armistice Day then, should be looked upon by both fighters as a chance for the form ing of a decisive standing among them, while, individually, it should mean much more.
 The committee in charge of the program for Tuesday is of the belief that the battle is going to attract the largest gathering of fight fans to b. brought together here in years.
 While the Chambers-Celmars fight is to be a main event of the first water, the semi-final is to be another contest of the same class and is really a second main event. Ii this bout will appear Johnnie Meyer, the geieral favorite of the Warren dis trict, and Frankie Fowser, the hard hitting and quick-acting Fl Paso wei terweight. In his last few fights in Bisbee Meyer has proved himself to be one of the coolest and clearest headed boxers in the business. To this quality he has added a knowl- edge of the fine points of the game which is increasing with every fight,

C[ABBY TAKING
 ON HEAV|ES IN
 THE ANTIPODES
By FRED TURBYVILLE

Jimmy Clabby, star among mid dleweIghts here several years ago, is taking them all on in Australia, ac- cord;n. to the latest letter from Snowy Baker, the famous promoter, of tho Antipodes. Jimmy is still a regular middleweight, but game vas scarce for Jimmy in that class, and taking them all on, as Jack Dillon did in this country few years ago. Jim my defeated George Cook, a heavy weight, in a 20,round bout at sydney. Clabby The American will next tackle Albert Lloyd, Australian heavy weight champion.
 Another opponent for Lloyd will be Chuck Wiggins, one of the Tom An drewS stable now in Australia. Wig gins is light heavyweight. He is from Indianapolis. Andrews has with him Eddie Kelly, lightweight; Joe Mooney. feather; Frankie Daley. ban tam; Barney Snyder. flyweight; and Cliff Thomas, lightweight. They're getting plenty of fights.
 Both Kelly and Mooney will box Lew Edwards, Australian lightweight champ. who can also box in the featherweight class. Vince Blackburn will box Daley.
 Baker writes that he has discovered a new 'D'Arcy" The lad is young heavyweight named Jim Hanley. Snowy says he is of the Dempsey type but is faster and has a more varied attack He is still in his teens.
 The boxing game is gong good in Australia. There will be many good bouts fought this winter. Baker ex- poets some of the Australian champs to come through, big and perhaps de- mand matches with the American champions.
 Baker just now is trying to interest the boxing promoters of oIner coun- t, ies in establishing internac1onai box ing control to regulate every angle of the sport.
 The boxing world certainly has need for some sort of central control and if Snowy Baker was in America perhaps he could put the thing through. Hetis high class sports man in every sense of the word, and a credit to the boxing game.

Social unrest, the labor problem, the league of nations and other first page form upsets have nothing on our 1919 football situation.
 East and west resemble two well mangled and omletted hen fruits. With the season three Saturdays to go what chance has a football fan got to end the year of 1919 outside of the well-knOwn nut house?
 Harvard, Dartmouth and Colgate in the east and Ohio State in the west are still struggling in the whirl- pool The others have bobbed below the surface in the greatest season of upsets gridiron experts ever at tempted to expert.
 If we can figure the remainder Of the season as they have performed in the games already played we can look forward to the defeat of the quartet of survivors.
 Thus why not a Purdue victory over Ohio the coming aSturday? Or why cant both Yale and Princeton wallop the Harvard Johnnies?
 Coach Blank may well fear any and all of the remaining games of inc season Just how a coach can manage Co snatch an hours sleep between sunset and sunrise is one of the mysteries of the day. If the ibgh school teams were scheduled to meet the collc5iang we'd bet a sood dollar un the high schoolers.

Wildcats Defeated
 By Pomona Eleven

TUCSON. Ariz., Nov. S.-The foot ball team of Pomona College of Cali fornia defeated the "Wildcat" eleven of the University of Arizona here this afternoon by the score of 19 to q. The game was played on a muddy field, wet down by the seasons first fall of sleet and rain, and the Wild cats" unused to wet ball, fumbled many times. Pomona was quick to take advantage of such slips and the first score came after the first few minutes of play. The game was featured by the most grueling kind of mass attacks and defenses, and several players were injured and forced out of the lineup. It was the first time this season that the ''Wildcats' goal line had been crossed.

BOB MARTIN HAS BUSTED HAND

It now leaks out that Bob Martin won his first professional fight on this side with a badly crippled right hand. Bob smashed it on the head of his colored sparring partner, Harry Rob inson, a few days before he fought Joe Bonds The veteran Bonds was fearful of Martins right, but he did Tot know it was crippled. Bonds while defense was in holding Martin in such a way that the youngster couldn't use the right. And Martin used the left. The right hand is com ing along nicely and will not prevent Martin from working for his next ring battle.

BOWLING NOTES

The six bowlers having the highest averages at the close of the series ending November 18th will be the team to represent Bisbee in the first match with Douglas for the Walter Douglas cup. Competition is growing keen for places on the team. Some of the old,timers are getting into mid season form, but there's still time for any aspirant to nose out the leaders. The first match will be bowled at Bisbee November 29. Everybody that knows the difference between a strike and a pin setter should be on hand to welcome our Douglas friends and to cheer our team to victory.

Who'll stop that team of Pat Har- rington's? They're getting mighty conceited over theofr record Of six straight victories. The ladies, with all their wiles, couldn't persuade them to blow a spare. However, if what we hear is true, they have a hard road to travel from now on. The most ire quent remark on the alleys is "wait till thy meet our team" Well, we're waiting and hoping. But if none of the rest of you guys get them, why just wait till they meet our team!

Hamp Cochran came to the alleys direct from football practice with the Legion team and declared he was all in and didn't think he could bowl very well. Then he proceeded to annex a score Of 203. What could Hamp have bowle,l that night if he had felt right?
 Lee Blair claims he is ac a Gisad- vantage when he has to bowl on alleys and 4. Tuesday he bowled his first two games on 1 and ?. attaining the remarkable score sof 134 and 146, re- spectively. Then he bowled his third game on and 4 and made a score of 1855. Get another alibi, Lee.
 We'll say Ckris Prodonovich bowls a better game than he did a year ago! Last season Chris shot the ball down the alley with the velocity of high explosive shell. He seemed to have an idea that the pins were troop of German soldiers and that he was the chosen instrument for their destruc- tion. fWhen Chris entered game the pin boys rendered their resignations or donned armor. It didn't make any difference to Chris in those days whether he hit the seven pin, the ten pin, Or the pin boy. Speed was all he craed-not accuracy. He seemed to be of the opinion that prize was of fered for the fastest time from one end of the alley to the other. Chris is bowling much more cOnseratively this year. He seems to have come to an agreement with the pin boys to let bygones be doggone, and as for ac- Chris will bet a quarter any time that he'll hit the mead pin

III many lines of industry there is
at present greater demand than
supply. In our industry, for exam
pie, in the clothing trade, prices will
be as high as they were during the
period of the war on standard goods,
and there is no prospect Of decline
for at least a year and a half, and
perhaps two years. These conditions
are due to the restricted production
during the war, stocks now being
sub-normal both in the hands of
dealers and manufacturers to the
increased demand resulting from the
demobiizatiOn of our armies and the
prosperous conditions generally OBJ
tanning throughout the country; to
the fact that manufacturing organi-
cations have been seriously dis
turbed by the war and a full COM
plement of help is not at present OBJ
tainable; to the fact that hours
have been shortened throughout the
tailoring industry, which now works
only forty-four hours a week, and
that wages have risen due to the
foregoing conditions.

F0resees No Fall i'm
Crude Rubber Prices

81 do not look for any substantial
decline from the present low level of
crude rubber prices, because while
the production Of crude rubber is
largely increasing the consumption
Is also being largely accelerated, to
which must be added the abnormal
demand yet to come from those coun-
tries which through war necessities
have been denuded of supplies"
p. r. Wesley, manager of sales
of the Davol Rubber Company, man.
ufacturers Of rubber goods. said :
eve do not hesitate to state that
we fully agree with Professor
Fisher and have faith in his COM
petence to express an opinion of
price conditions.
In answer to the second question
as to whether we think prices can
decline materially from present
level without substantial reduction
in wage rates, we would answer No.
"A controlling factor in costs is
the price of labor. High wages OBJ
tain now in our plant and we see
no immediate likelihood of any ma
terlal reduction which would affect
our cost and consequently the sell.

Where Prices
Are Mounting

The experience in the silk indus
try must seem strange to those who
dogmatically persist in their faith
that prices soon will crash. O. O.
frost, vice-presidcnt Of the Cha op-
lam Silk Mills, explains the situa-
tion thus:
I'm our business the law Of sup
ply and demand has been given alb
solute freedom of operation and
the result has been constantly in
creasing price level, since about the
first of February. Immediately
after the armistice we, in common
with most Of our competitors, made
radical price reductions in order to
get business started, with the result
that at the moment the demand is
greater than can be supplied.
THE greater part of our raw ma
terial comes from the Orient. The
japanese and Chinese are copnjzant
OF the situation in the silk business
N this country and are not alaw

Organized Labor
Won't Cut Wages

Now, understand, that feel that
the present market, which is a run
away market, is not permanent, but
Will topple over in the course of
time, which may take months, but it
Will not recede, in my opinion, be-
yond the place where it was four
months ago. In other words, we
have come into a new era and we
must forget about the past. 1t is
only within few years that we
were figuring calfskins in our shoes
at 50 cents a foot; we were quoted
~ to 92 cents a foot this morning.
1t may recede when this unusual de-
mand is met to 70 or rs cents. but
this is double what it was a few
years ago.
Now, as regards labor.
1--WE are in an industry that is
strongly unionized, and l cannot con-
ceive of organized labor reduc-
ing wages. The thing seems to
me like an endless chain. Labor
says that it cannot reduce wages
while the price Of commodities is
high, and as labor is the greatest
item in almost any product the COM
modify can't go down until labor
does. We have never seen, so far as
know, a reduction of wages among
the shoe workers. Every revision
has been upward.
IF there is any business in which
the competition is keen it is the shoe
business. 1t is possible for a man
with little capital to start in busi-
ness, due largely to his ability to get
machines on lease instead of having
to buy them. The law of supply
and demand is in effect, and | have
tried to make clear to you the result
since this law has been allowed to
operate.
Il believe that Professor Irving
Fisher, of Yale, is absolutely cor
rect; that we arc in new era; that
prices will never recede to pre-
war basis or anywhere near it; that
the trend of prices is upward and
has been ever since the Civil War. I
believe that there will be slight re-
ductlons from time to time, but the
trend is upward

fully as high as they are now for the
balance of this year"
Representative of the woman's
apparel industry expressed their be-
lief that prices would be still high
CT. Hardwick S. Benedikt, presi-
dent of the Drezwell Company, Inc,
speaking with particular reference
to the dress industry, said:
"There are certain prophets who
are continually prophesying disas-
ter, and if the prophet lives long
enough he must be able to say 4 told
you So In this case, I think, Pro-
fessor Irving Fisher is absolutely
correct when he says, Those that
speak Of pre-war prices speak a
dead language'
Supply and demand necessarily
regulate the prices of merchandise,
and, with the stoppage of immigra-
ton to this country for some time to
come, skilled labor Of all kinds will
be at premium.
New-York tribune., 1919-05-18
Says Merchandise
VIII Be Scarcer

Dudley Sicher, of D. z. Sicher &,
Co., makers of undermuslins, gives
1T as his opinion that both mer-
chandise and labor are going to con-
tlnue to become scarcer for MANY
months to come, and that pre-war
prices in almost all lines Of mer-
chandise and commodities are not to
be looked for for many years to
come. Labor, l think, is going to
be the most important factor in
keeping prices from going back to
what they formerly were. I think
that the present shortage of help is
gong to become very acute indeed,
and that real labor famine NAV he
one of the things we have to CON
template."
And in the raw material indus-
tries the reaction was Similar AL

Danger Of Labor
Famine, Manufacturers Say

"In the dress industry, the one
with which I am most conversant,
the supply of labor is at no time
equal with the demand. The actual
weekly earnings of the workers in
this industry are far greater than
when the hours were forty-nine, and
you can readily see that the wage
earnings are from so to 100 per cent
higher than they were prior to the
war. That same condition applies
to the prices of piece goods and all
the sundrfes that go to the making
of the garment. Only a great catas-
trophe couM bring prices to their
pre-war basis, and for the above
mentioned reasons | agree entirely
with Professor Fisher"
Saul Singer, of Singer Brothers,
