NEW REFORM
THREATENING
JERSEY CITY
Women Insist Name
Change of sBoyle's
Thirty Acres
BY F. ]. WALSH.
Consolidated Press CORRESPONDENT

Jersey City, N. J., Sept. 12.-Now
1t is "Boyle's Thirty Acres" that
may be reformed.
The organized feminine element
OF Jersey City does not like the cog
nomen Of that famous battling
ground. The arena, erected origin
ally for the Dempsey-Carpentier
match, is to be retained as a monu-
ment to the city itself. But the
womenfolk insist that the name
shall be changed and as a result a
battle is impending which can be
expected to tear the town wide
open before it finally is settled.
The men-including the city Of
ficials-want the old designation re-
tanned. Harry F. OMelia, chairman
Of the mayors committee, let it be
known today that he has not decid-
ed what he will do although he op-
poses action, but the women them
selves rather calmly insist that
they will not temporize but will in
sist that the change be made.
Ladies Have q Hunch.
The women, represented by the
Women's Social Civic organization
Of Hudson county, insist that the
name should be Jersey City
Arena" They hold that there is
big advertising in the matter and
that the city should benefit. In
letter sent to O'Melia by Mrs.
Frank ]. Radigan, president of the
women's organization, she said:
Jersey City has been getting con-
siderable national and international
publicity recently on account of its
sporting events, and particularly
the boxing matches conducted in
the arena.
1.-The members of the Women's
Civic organization deem that the
name applied to the arena does not
do credit to Jersey City. 'Boyle's
Thirty Acres is a name locally
KNOWN but outside of Jersey City it
means nothing.
why not, in this area Of effic-
iency and period of keen publicity.
have this name changed to The Jer-
sey City Arena and let the outside
world connect the place with Jer-
sey City proper, which will mean
substantial and badly needed ad-
vertisement?"
ALI Wrong, Say Men.
In reply Mr.. O'Melia wrote:
Women generally do not follow
sporting events as keenly as the So
called stronger sex, which, l take
it, might be offered as an explana-
tion of the very natural mistake
made by you and your associates in

Acres is name known only
locally. On the contrary, l can as

CRISIS HAS
PASSED FOR
FIRST LADY
Sawyer Says Operation
Deemed Unnecessary
for the Present.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE crisis
in Mrs. Harding's condition seems
to have been passed." an official
bulletin issued by attending physi-
clans at 9:35 a. m. today said.
The text Of the bulletin, signed by
Brigadier- c. e. Sawyer,
White house physician, follows:
Mrs. Harding's condition at 8
a. NJ:
Temperature, sS.s; pulse, "a;
respiration, 80.
Early part Of night restless. Lat
ter part comfortable. General ap-
pearances improved. Enlargement
due to nephrosis, decreasing. Lab
oratory findings favorable. Crisis
seems to have been passed. Surgi-
cal procedure deemed unnecessary
for the present"
Washington, Sept. 12.-Although
Mrs. Harding's illness continued at
a critical stage, indications at an
early hour today were that there
had been no loss of ground from the
improvement reported in her condi-
ton yesterday and last night. The
night passed with outward quiet at
| the White house and with the at
mosphere of slight relief from the
intense anxiety which has been felt
there for the last IS hours.
Steady Improvement
Hope was held today that the
steady improvement shown in the
patients condition throughout yes
terday would prove to be a decisive
| turn for the better although at
tending physicians, in expressing
their encouragement at yesterdays
developments, made it plain that
the crisis had not been passed.
Decision as to whether surgical
! relief would be undertaken still
was being deferred early today by
the five attending physicians, Brig
adler General Sawyer, White house
physician, having explained in the
last official bulletin issued at 1880
last night that this course was be-
ing followed to await localization
of infection" To this bulletin,
which said Mrs. Harding had
passed the most comfortable day
since the critical turn in her ILL
ness, DR.. Carl Sawyer, son of
Brigadier- General Sawyer, added
the informal statement at 1905 p.
m. that the patients improvement
was continuing.
Harding Encouraged.
President Harding retired at an
early hour last night, much encour-
aged, it was said, by friends, over
the Improvement shown in his
wife's condition. DR.. George T.
Harding, Jr.. Of Columbus, Ohio. a
brother of the patient, told news
papermen yesterday that Mr.. Hard
ing had borne up under the strain
of Mrs. Harding's illness as well
as could be expected and that ply
sically his condition was excellent

tial revival which has taken place
this year as a natural recovery from

better year in 1898 than in 1922.
That is the method by which pros
perity is achieved.
On the other hand, il the public
generally becomes possessed OF the
idea that a boom is coming, and
is willing to borrow and spend
upon that belief. it is possible that,
a short course of imitation may be

nothing but a habit OF mind.
There arc no gains from raising

but this gain cannot be called sec
ondary imitation. II looks like the
recovery that always comes when
the old stocks are exhausted and
industry gets fairly under way
again. The fall of prices was un-
rvcn aud To some cases too pre-
ripitate. and the curtailment Of in
dustfy was too. great TO permit OF
supplying the necessary demands.
Although the wartime was any
thing but a period OF depression,
some of the effects were similar TO
those resulting from a period OF
depression. Industry IN some lines
fell behind the normal growth Of
the country. creating a deficit OF
supply. or accumulation of demand.
This is trne in houscbuilding. in
the construction OF railway equip
ment. and in some other lines. aud
a revival has occurred In those
lines. II is due to imperative
needs. rather than 10 belief that
the bottom has been finally reach

the feeling doubtless prevails that
prices are not likely 10 20 lower
until the existing shortage is in
large part made up. The advance
OF wages is due in part TO the re-
vival OF industry, but In large part
20 the immigration act.
II IS quite evident that abnormal
conditions IN some OF the indus
tries are directly influencing prices
at this time. The rise Of iron and
steel is mainly due 20 the coal
strike. which has affected all indus
trial costs.
There is nothing about the atti-
tudc OF buyers OF general merchan-
disc that indicates a desire TO an
ticipatc future wants. They are
buying cautiously, for immediate
needs only. and fighting advances,
which is just the opposite OF the
common attitude when imitation is
under way.

Conditions Favorable to Imitation

II is true that conditions are very
favorable TO an imitation OF credit.
We have a great number OF inde-
pendent banking institutions, act
ively competing with each other
for customers, and the most cfcc-
tive way that has ever been found
Tor winning customers is by lib
rrality in granting credit. These banks
have liquidated a great amount OF
credit in the last two years, and
while they have shifted a large
part OF it into securities, they will

Reasons for Caution

One reason for doubling that
the country will swing readily into
another inna,ionary jamboree Is that
so little time has elapsed since the
last one.
There would seem 20 be reason TO
believe that most OF the business
men who passed through the ex-
pcricnces of 1920 and 1921 will
want 10 make a very careful study
OF probabilities before they commit
themselves to extensive obligations
on level OF prices much above
the present one.
As an answer 10 the argument
that the iinportations OF gold make
for imitation, il is TO be said that
II would be n 81 unwise 10 build
a great fabric OF credit on a tenn
porary foundation. II this innrx
OF gold should put prices up. by
the same logic an cfilux of ii would
put them down. Nothing can be
more certain than that the pres
ent situation, in which gold came
to the United States last month
from 81 countries, is abnormal and
cannot be permanent.
