Johnny, Monday when questioned in

to box on a percentage it looked
pretty slim for us. We found there
was 500 in the boN office to split
between the promoter, the fighters
and pay the expenses.
"We took up a collection and
made the pot $l35, but figused we
couldn't battle for that so we just
boxed 8 rounds.
Sudenberg denied that he felt i'll

he said, throwing out his chest and
humping it. He looked much the

that boxed at Fort Omaha under
Sudenberg's name two weeks ago.

FIGHT FANS SAY
SCRAP WAS FAKE;
GET MONEY BACK
Schmarderer -Sudenberg Bout
Is Unsatisfactory; Claim
Faker Said He Was
Sudenberg.

The following story to The Bee
from a correspondent in O'Neill
Neb., was received Monday:
O'Ne;ll, Neb., March 8.-(Spe-
cial. "A fake fight here Saturday
night nearly caused riot when
the spectators began to realize
they were being swindled out of
their money. The whole affair
following similar wrestling event
two weeks ago, has put a damper
on both boxing and wrestling in
Holt county for some time to
come. \
Both the, wrestle and the fight
were given upder the auspices of
the American Legion local post
and Promoter Mike Kirwin, both
innocent of the sustitutions
worked off on them until the
events were called. The Ameri-
can Legion local post announces
that it is through lending its name
to so-called athletic events un-
less they are gotten up and par
ticipateH in by members of the
legion.
Schmarderer Is Champ.
The event Saturday night was
advertised as 10-round fight be-
tween Andy Schmarderer of
Louisville, Neb., who claims to
have been champion of some kind
in the Missouri river navy during
the war, and Johnny Sudenberg, a
fighter of some note. ..
Schmarderer CAME here Thurs
day. Saturday afternoon, a slight,
p~ie, anaemic youth, claiming he
was Sudenberg, arrived with an
other Of his kind who claimed to
be his manager.
"Sudenberg" failed to recog-
nize a former O'Neill sportsman
under whose management the real
Sudenberg had formerly fought.
Another split-eared youth who
claimed to be Kid Graves, sport
ing editor of The Omaha Bee,
showed up with an Indian trailer
to referee the bout. When time
came the fighters tried to hold
up the crowd by a demand ~fer>
more money, there being $3.50 in
the house. Many ticket-holders
demanded their money back and
getting it left the building.
Those who remained took up
small collection for which the

Sockeye salmon runs of the Puget

have also been reduced in number.
The humpback salmon runs probably
will be attacked by the fishermen next

predicted, they. too, probably will be
depleted.

from reaching their spawning grounds,
it Is probable these waters will suffer
more in the near future.

5000 Are Sailing Weekly for

CAUSE OF LABOR SHORTAGE
Difficulties of I raveling in Europe and
Danger of Losing Their Money Has
No Influence on Aliens Eager
to Return.

New YOrk.-WholeSale re-emigratiOn
Of aliens in America began last April
and is continuing in ever growing
numbers. Steamship ticket agents
agree that 5000 are leaving for Europe
weekly, although the immigration is
confined to Italians and Belgians
| have been in contact with Il great
number of alien labOrers in the United
States since my return from Europe in
January and I find that a great per-
centage of them are preparing to leave
the states. writes Joseph Szebenyei in
the New York Times. Among the Hun
garians and those coming from the
newly formed states in eastern Eu-
rope, 80 per cent are about to return
to the old country.
The resultant labor shortage eSpe-
cially is being felt already, and en-
ployers of alien labor are forced to
advertise continually in order to re-
place the hands leaving week after
week. They are spending thousands
of dollars on advertisements in SlOvak
and Hungarian papers. Mining com
panies especially prefer Hungarian
workers because they are steady and
hard workers. doing jobs no others

would do. and earning in most cases
up to $12O week.
The causes of the --hOlesale re-
emigration may be found in the follow
ing facts:
l. Alien laborers have saved up mon
ey during the war, when they were
barred from sending it home, and, ac-
cording to bankers dealing exclusively
with them, they have an average of
$4,000. If we take what a dollar is
worth in eastern Europe, it is easy
to comprehend that the worker ex-
changing his dollars into krOnen be-
comes the richest man in his village,
lure very few could withstand. For
$4,000 he gets as much as 100000
krOnen enough to buy out the richest
landlord in his district.
2. Prohibition.
3. The labOrer has not seen his fam
lily. many have not even heard from
them. for six to ten years.
f. The high cost of living in America.
Geza D. Berko. managing editor Of
the Hungarian Daily. who has his fin
ger on the alien movements in Amer
lea more than any one else, when
questioned on the subject said:
''The re-emigration is slow because
there IS not sufficient shipping. There
are only five steamers weekly avail
able for eastern Europe at present,
and yet 5000 are leaving by them.
Should the sailing facilities improve,
and the passport question be simpli-
fed, it will grow by leaps and bounds" )"
| Cannot Be Oissuaded.
The manager Of Emil Kiss banking
house. the largest ticket agents on the
east side. said that they were discour-
aging re-emigration as much as pos
sible, and explained to applicants the
difficulties Of travelling in Europe, the
danger of their losing their kits and
money on the way.
"Yet it is impossible to persuade
them to stay" the clerks assert.
'"There are letters from former travel
ers who say that they have been cheat
ed and robbed of their possessions,
arrived home stripped of everything,
yet you can't induce them to stay
do you discourage exchange of dol
lars as well?' l asked.
"We do, but the constant fall in the
exchange makes it difficult By the
time the man arrives home he gets
more for his dollars. so he prefers TAX
ing it in cash, as most of them are
| ignorant people who mistrCst drafts.
Now, in travelling through Europe the
victim-f0r you can't call him by any
other name-encounters laws in ev-
cry country prohibiting the export of
dollars. If he lands in France his
money is exchanged into francs, in
Germany into marks, in Austria or
JugoSlayia into kronen, being 10 or
more per cent everywhere"
Some of the re-emigrants travel
through five countries and thus lose
80 per cent of their money on forced
exchange In France there are even
graver difficulties, for even the export
of French money to exceed 1000
francs is prohibited The traveller must
get Il state permit. a procedure taking
sometimes weeks The whole of Eu-
rope is hungry for dollars.

consequent lessening of production,
contributing to further increase in
prices and the cost of living. But
since responsible unionism has been
under direct attack and public senti
ment has been aroused, the two forces
see clearing of the atmosphere and
ultimate good as result of the fray.
Germany seems surprised and en-
deavOrs to muster show of indigna
tion that the French should have
taken seriously the terms of the peace
treaty With the movement of the
German reichSwehr in unauthorized
force into the Ruhr basin (part of the
neutral zone of so kilometerS on the
right bank of the Rhine) the French
promptly occupied the German cities
of Frankfort, Darmstadt, Homburg,
Hanau and Dieburg and surrounding
territory. French OfficialdOm points
out that Germany had already slipped
out of ten compliances with the
treaty, the most important being fail
ure to dSarm. nOnpayment of indem
mites. no prosecution of her war Grim
inals and failure to deliver coal to
France; also that if permitted to get
away with such vital violation as
invasion of the neutral zone, she would
soon discard all pretenses Of living up
to the pact 1t is further pointed out
that NOSke far from reducing Ger
many's army to the point demanded
in the treaty, had really been building
up a great and potent military force
from the remnants of the old army.
The French, and they are not alone in
the assertion, claim that Germany
still has 12.500 cannon, and could now
mobilize more than 100000 trained
men armed with rifles, machine guns
and minenwerfer The assertions are
tribute to German organizing eff

home guards, etc, the country really
has no less than 3,500.0O0 men who
can be called upon and 100000 who
could be rendered Immediately effec-
tive. Every man in the country was
recently soldier and now each one
under Noske's genius, has become a
policeman or something similar, be-
longing to a military organization and
with a complete military equipment in
his home The French occupation has
been criticized as lacking allied sup
port but the allies were drifting apart
on important matters before that. At
any rate, the occupation appears to
be complete so far as it has gone and
promises to end with a compromise
with allied supervision of German Op-
eratiOnS in the Ruhr districts or full
German compliance with French

The battle between landlords and

almost equal interest with strikes,
politics, national and international
problems. In New York recently en-
acted anti-rent-profteering Legislation,
received it's first tests with results
wholly favorable to tenants. In every
case tried evictionS were defeated and
tenants were granted stay-Overs of
from one to three months when they
proved their inability to find new
homes. In Chicago and many other
cities tenants are organizing leagues
to resist what they consider unduly
increased rents. Many court battles
are impending and in some cases arbi-
tratiOn has been invoked successfully,
resulting in some compromises and
some material reductions. Real estate
boards have acted effectively in some
instances in settling controversies and
the problem is receiving wide atten-
ton from municipal authorities and
financierS Loan corporations with
large capital have been formed in a
number of cities to promote building
and help end the housing shortage. In
spite of all remedial measures and all
the oil being poured upon the troubled
waters, landlords and tenants are look
