 The ticket problem already has become acute. Tex Richards down. town sale headquarters reported only a few thousand pasteboards left, these of the higher-priced vari- cities, S16.50 to s27.50. Cheaper seats have been sold out and specu- lators already are asking fancy prices for them, s5.50 tickets being sealed at s15 and s7.70 tickets at as high as S25. Few choice ring side tickets appeared available but some were said to have price-tags as high as S100 apiece.
 Police and boxing authorities, as well as Tex Rickard, exercised all possible precautions to forestall tickets from falling into the hands of spectators but their efforts were not wholly successful.
 Elaborate arrangements have been made to handle traffic and crowds, in the heart of the city. as well as in the vicinity of the sesqui stadium. Approximately 5000 policemen as well as 1000 ushers, ticket handlers, and other employees will be involved In the task.

Philadelphia. Sept. p R-The day before the battle found the Dempsey-Tunney championship bout still behind a smoke-screen of legal entanglements and the city of Phila- delphia swamped by the advance in- Aux of one of the greatest crowds that ever gathered for a sporting spectacle anywhere.
 None of the dozen or more court cases started either by Jack Kearns Dempseys former manager, or B. c. Clements, Chicago promoter, ap- peared likely to upset plans for the bout but rival squads of lawyers were prepared for any and all eley- enth hour moves.
 Every hotel and all available roomiDg house accommodations have been absorbed. The overflow has spread to nearby cities in Pennsyl- vania, New Jersey and Delaware.
 The city which cradled the dawn of American Independence 15O years ttoo oi4u iS III llle OI CtIpDTdI- ing 1t now would have its facilities taxed to the limit with the fight crowd alone.

 Fortunately, most of the 75,000 expected fight visitors will make their visit comfortably brief.

means money, and hard work and a long time. l guess the comptometer is my best bet!
 I did think at one time of being a dancer and even got so far as to write well-known agency for particulars about beginning. I found the course I wanted cost quite a few hundred dollars-and that was the end of that.
 I'm afraid I'm not a terribly thrifty girl. I like to spend as I go and trust to luck or fate, or what ever it may be, for the future. Per haps the life I have seen around me, and the tragedy of my Mother has helped to form that take-it- while-you- idea. Anyhow, I would be less than honest if tried to picture myself as highbrow highminded, "high-hat" young woman with noble aspirations or a tragic viewpoint.
 I am not.
 I am simply a girl like a million others, not pretty, not clever, not brilliantly educated. not tremen- dously ambitious, not above wanting friends and pretty clothes and good times.
 I have had more than a girls share of tragedy and trouble, but I had a Mother whom I devotedly loved and who loved me and was pals with me. and who taught me sensibly. A Mother whose self l loved, whose memory I revere, and whose story I have tried to tell as honestly and as well as l could. We were so close really that her story Is my story, too.

Autonomist Movement
tspeeIaI 70 La paIIy Workerl

MADRID, March A. The long
existing political struggle between the
province of Catalonia for autonomy
and the central government has reach
ed such a point that the national au-
thorities here have issued an official
statement threatening to punish all
citizens who refuse to accept posi-
lions conferred on them by the nation
or who display unpatriotic sentiments
of any kind Deprivation of citizen
ship, confiscation of goods, and nullih-
cation of the right to practice certain
professions are among the penalties
provided.
Catalonian leaders have particular
ly resented the action of the military
directorate in cancelling long-estab-
lished special privileges which the
province has enjoyed of autonomous
administration and private regional
rights. Primo de Riviera, on the other
hand, contends it was the very ex-
ercise of these special privileges
that has built up the sentiment in the
province for complete separation from
Spain.

POWER TO HOOVER
Aim to Block Growth of

Especial to The Daily workerl

WASHINGTON, Mar. 12-Congress
began the task today of enacting
radio legislation to take the place
of the archair regulations of 1912.
Before the house with right Of
way was the White bill, which adj
ministration leaders confidently pre-
dicted would be passed by tomorrow
night at the latest. Altho food Of
amendments we're in the of1ng to
iron out what many factions believe
are rough edges, both republicans and
democrats were united behind the
general measure.
The bill would vest control of the
entire industry in the department Of
commerce, under new regulations
taking the place of those now in
force.
For Increased Control.
"The need for radio legislation is
Imperative" stated Rep. White, re-
publican of Maine, author Of the bill.
THE department of commerce is
trying to regulate a giant industry
under rules laid down In 1917 Tor
pygmy. Unless the governments con-
troll is increased, we will see con-
inued confusion with no end in
sight"
Would Block Air Trust.
Strong safeguards against air mono
poles are a feature of the legislation.
No permits may be granted those con-
victed in federal court of seeking to
monopolize communication thru the
control of radio apparatus.
Led by Rep. Davis, democrat of
Tennessee, a movement was under
way to throw even greater safeguards
around the public interest by forbid
ding the transportation of tubes or
other apparatus on which the manu-
facturer attempts to fix the price.
This was stricken from an early
committee report on the ground that
interstate commerce legislation had
no place in a radio bill. The provision
is understood to be aimed at one of
the large corporations which controls
radio tubes thru patent rights.
