The city already was in the hands
of the Derby invasion today. Every

900 rooms and apartments and an

Colonies OF special coaches and
private cars were beginning TO form

There is no doubt at all that suffi-
cient number of signatures to petit

legislature will do about it is an
other matter. But the feeling, as
said, among Californian fans now
in this city is that there are more
chances of the boxing law being en-
acted than not.
since one cannot well imagine Fire
Chief kenlon going against the wishes
OF the New York fire commissioner
all the chances are that Madden and
WI Wills % will meet in Newark on
Fire Commissioner brennan told
Simon Flaherty, the Queensboro pro-
moter, to go see the fire chief. That
or course was passing the buck, a
thing always neatly done hereabouts
Ffaherty will see Kenlon, but no
of him. OF course, he may. But it
looks like Newark for this little
setto. Wills and Madden have both
resumed their work of training. an
parently not bothered by all the
delays.
There is n bout set for PHILADELPHIA
on Monday night that promises well,
1t is between Ad Stone and Tommy
LouShran. who recently turned in a
neat victory over Charley Nashert in
Detroit. Ioughran expects his speed
to offset Stones superior punching
ability.
AS to punching, Stones hands have
been in the dry dock for some time
row. It remains to be seen how they
stand up under real work. Stone
seems to be one of those unfortunate e
fighters whose wallop is more power

Berlenbach is another and Harry

Union with France.
France had but to say the word
and she could have commercial ac-
cord with Germany, DR.. SHINES add
ed. He said German capital, the in
dustrialists and the workers always
had signified a readiness to enter into
an economic union which would mu-
tually stimulate and complement the
productive agencies of the two neigh
boring countries.
That Bolshevism continues a grave
menace, not only for Germany, but
all Industrial states, was suggest
ed to DR.. SHINES through the fact
that Moscow still was reaching be-
yond the borders of Russia in an ef-
fort to make disciples.
This danger" said DR.. SHINES,
''cannot be underestimated, and no
people is more exposed to 1t than a
German proletariat subjected to pri-
vations and youth deprived of all
hope for the future. One must re-
member that fully nine-tenths of the
German people today are given no
opportunity to lay up even modest
savings. The masses living from hand
to mouth, therefore are ever ready
to yield to the influence and the
temptations Of the political reac-
tionaries"
Had Faith in Lenin.
The late Hugo Shines according to
DR.. SHINES. believed that the late
Nikolai Lenin was the one man in
Russia who could have directed the
Soviet ship into a safe channel.
Lenin's successors he believed, were
too much given to international
propaganda. The SHINES interests
in Russia have been largely liquated

Associated Press yesterday by DR..
Edmund SHINES, chief administrative
heir of the late Hugo SHINES, Ger
many's great industalist.
Lack of capital DIR. SHINES added,
now was responsible for restricting
German industry to less than so per

Shows Influence of Father.
The man of 80, who with his young
er brother, Hugo, jr., now is ruling
over the world empire of commerce
bequeathed by the late ''uncrowned
king of Germany" readily betrays
the effects Of the rigorous commercial
apprenticeship gathered at the ell
bows of his illustrious father. The
trend of mind of Hugo SHINES is
business logic and arguments of Dr.
SHINES, who for the first time yester-
day volunteered to discuss for the
benefit Of American readers German
economic problems as they now will

Americas predominant participa-

at large it must definitely signaliZe

of this goal is not attained despite
the London agreement, it will not be

Check ON RadicnliSm.
Dr. SHINES said he was convinced
that political radicalism, both on the
right and left, will be decisively
weakened once Germany's economic
activities are directed into orderly
degree of normality.
THE present unrest in both quar-
ters," DR.. SHINES continued. must
be solely accounted for in the lack
of co-ordinated employment. Our
official statistics on unemployment
fail to reveal the true picture of
the conditions under which 20 or
more million German men and womel

that even then they were INDUCED in
by only a small portion of the peo-
ple-those who profited by the pre-
vailing economic confusion and the
currency collapse. SHINES has been
keen student Of International affairs
and economic conditions of countries
with which Germany is now to be
brought into sharp competitive touch.
He reveals an amazing knowledge of
American methods of production and
labor conditions, especially in the
automobile line. in which he appears
particularly interested, since every
second taxicab in Berlin belongs to
the SHINES concern.
DR.. SHINES naturally centers his
thought on Europe, which he insists
still is heavily superorganized, with
official red tape, superfiuous customs
frontiers and useless parliaments.
'All this makes drones and has in
creased the cost of living fully 25
per cent without raising the stand
ard of living" he said Europe could
consume more if she would dispense
with this surplus organization and

and the estate il reported to have
only a few possessions there at the
present time.
That the mass Of the German peo-
pie are impoverished to an extent to
preclude even modest indulgence In
luxury Is the conviction of Dr.
SHINES, who nevertheless urges as
many of his countrymen as can af-
ford the experience to go aboard and
gain a new perspective.
I'VE have been isolated for ten
years and lost all Intellectual touch
with postwar developments abroad"
Dr. SHINES said. I'VE need new
standards of appraisal. We must
study new methods Of production and
otherwise gain a renewed touch with
international thought for economic
reasons chiefly.
"We have just ordered a half dozen
Of our department chiefs to visit the
Wembley exhibition in England for
the purpose Of study"
Dr. SHINES believes the reports Of
German extravaganza and excesses
originated in the imitation period and
Evening star., 1924-09-01

are existing, as a heavy share of
them now are working on short time
or halliday schedules.
"The future of the German working
man, and for that matter the German
people as whole, hinges on our
ability to find markets for our en-
forced production in all lines, 10
which we are obviously obligated
through reparation. Once we are In
a position to keep our workers unin-
busy. we Will automat1cal-
ly minimize the danger of Bolshevism
and other political reactions"
Referring to the eight-hour day,
DR.. SHINES said:
Length of Working Hours.
THE problem of working hours is
one which today really only concerns
the victorious states and neutrals. A
brutal realism must impress us with
the fact that through the dictates of
Versailles we are excluded from the
community of other nations in the
matter of fixing the length OF our
working day. So long as the Versailles
treaty Is in existence every German
automatically remains debtor or a
vassal of our creditor powers.
ITO this extent the victorious ma
tions and neutralS are unhampered in
their deliberations over what con-
stitutes a modern working day and
its relation to the standard of living.
They may even join in an interna-
tional pact which will definitely fix
this issue If Germany, which is
called on to pay the freight for the
lost war. aspires to give her workers
only a minimum standard of living.
she naturally still will be forced to
adopt increased working hours in
order that a volume of production in
excess of that needed for a living
maintenance may be made available
for reparation.
This is a hard and cruel fact, which
all the philanthropy reflected in sec
ton of the Versailles treaty fails
to ameliorate or alter one whit"
On the problem Of the eight-hour
day, which will come up shortly for
ultimate disposition in the Reichstag.
Evening star., 1924-09-01

DR.. SHINES not only faithfully reflects
the familiar arguments of his father,
but also voices the sentiment of Ger
man industrialist circles generally
AS Germany's chief postwar prob
lem calls for more production" the
slogan of DR.. SHINES calls for more
working hours" so far as industries
are concerned where the character Of
the work does not constitute a men,
ace to the workers health.
THE eight-hour- day ISSUE" DR..
SHINES went on. "is now debated In
Germany as though it were wholly a
matter of partisan politics. 1t, how
ever, resolves itself into an acute eco
nomic problem, and to this extent the
length of the working day in Ger
many depends more than ever on the
working hours observed in other
states. 1t is a simple business propo-
Stfon. If /, as a debtor, aspire to
produce only as much as my creditor
and then am forced to give him a
heavy share of the fruits Of my labor,
1t is plain that l am not in a position
TO consume as much or maintain
equal standards Of living. Applied to
the life OF the nation, this means that
the standard of living for every Ger
man must be lowered to a degree
fixed by the assessment exacted from
us under the treaty of peace.
Race Must Decline.
There can be no doubt that in the
course of several years the cultural
and social level reached by the aver
age German individual is bound to be
one OF pronounced inferiority. Such
condition naturally will reflect it
self in the quality and quantity of
the Drawn and brain which the work.
er will be able to inject into his la
Dor.
The prosperity Of Europe demands
an economic understanding between
Germany and France. and in this l
fully share the views of my late
father"

the consummation of such an accord
was impossible SO long as German
