Ring sport is the most prominent
exercise Of the day because of the
coming fight of Dempsey and Car

world, and the Rialto patrons will
see him in a good three-round fight
with the sturdy star, William Fair

Mike Gibbons is demonstrating
that there is more money in boxing
often than in laying off until the
big purses are trotted out.

Along with these recommendations
for lowering the cost of construction,
the committee is expected to ask the
legislature to ease the financial phases
of building by requiring banks and in
surance companies to place a certain
percentage of their resources into real
estate mortgages.
The committee expects to conclude
its long series of open hearings in
June, but the housekeeping among
building trades may go on much long
er. Additional indictments are pre-
dicted by Mr.. Untermysr.
Already more than 200 individuals
and concerns have been fined OF SEN
fenced to Imprisonment as a result of
the inquiry. Sixteen master plumb
ers were sent to the workhouse after

their organization. They were found
guilty of restraint of trade Seven
other men were sentenced to penitcn-
tiary terms. among them the wealthy
labor leader. Robert p. Brindel and

Ask More Strict
Laws to Reach
Combinations in N. Y

New York, June o.-Ine new YORK
Legislature at it's next session will be
asked to erect stronger legal barriers
against price fixing combinations. Its
committee investigating building
trusts expects to recommend legisia-
tom intended To preclude repetition
of collusion, uniform price making and
cxtortion such as it has exposed dur
ing hearings in New York.
This committee. it has been learned
from official sources, favors Jail ana
penitentiary sentences for individuals
who prey upon public and private
purses by choking free competition. 1t
does not consider that fines impose
sufficient punishment upon such mep.
For violations of state antitrust
laws a minimum sentence of six
months probably will be recommended
in the proposed legislation. In this
way, Samuel Untermyer, counsel for
the committee contends that officers
of concerns convicted of gouging the
public suffer as much, at least. as
those guilty of disorderly conduct.
Conspiracy to defraud the city, an
occurrence which the investigation
brought out had not been infrequent
in the past would be made felony
If the committee recommendations
were adopted.
\ Other suggestions will be to compel
every contractor dealing with the
city to agree not to compare quota
tions with others; to forbid contrac-
tors from belonging to any associa-
ton that hampers the Offering of un-
restricted bids and to compel them to
submit list Of all sub-contractors
engaged on a particular piece Of con-
structior work.
1t is Understood the committee also
will request the legislature to prohibit
agreements between labor and en-
ployers where the union fixes the price
