~HICAGO. September 22.-The
whole uplift movement among
NJ prize fighters was tied up in
~ tonight's punching match be-
tween Gene Tunney and Jack
Dempsey, despite the Dempsey last
minute effort to muddy the issue.
With Jack the winner the cave-man
element, which has set the style in
fighting for years, will be back in its
glory. But with Tunney retaining
the crown, the trend then would be
toward Genes ideal of a fight game
built upon a high plane of boxing
Skill--all shady stuff eliminated.
Tunney, worried over what the old
forces in the prize fight business could
do, went along with the crowd at
Philadelphia and for tonight's busi-
ness found himself hooked up with
some unplea SAINT characters. Now
his ambition is to get the game as far
away as possible from this type Of
outfit.
There is something about the lives
Of both Of these fighters which eX-
plains their different viewpoints.
Here is Jack Dempsey on one side,
brought up in little Western town,
lighting at an early age, known as a
hobo for years, taking to the ring
because of his love for battle. He is
a born fighter who has gone along
with the controlling forces in that
none too Savory business.
Tunney Eager TO Improve.
Then there is Gene Tunney, who
pushed his way through high school
and business college, becoming a clerk
in a steamship Office before enlisting
i'll the Marines for war service. BY
4 - ,tesft tfNr
the opinion of Marine Corps boxers
that he would make a good ring
battler. Struck with the possibilities
of the game, he stuck to it after the
81 war and trough the hardest sort of
work won his way to the top.

DENY TERROR" CAMPAIGN
Suspended Fur Workers Make
Statement to Union.

Denial that they planned a cam
patgn to terrorize workers was made
by delegates of four suspended New
York City locals of the international
Fur Workers Union at a meeting of
the union in the American Federation
of Labor Building yesterday. The
charge, brought by the general execu-
tive board of the union. was that they
planned to terrorize workers who had
returned to work in accordance with
strike settlement arranged by union
heads.
Benjamin Gold, manager Of the
Joint Board of Fur Workers of New
York, their spokesman, made a verbal
attack on o. Shactman, president of
the union, and Shactman replied by
charging that Gold was a self-styled
Communist. anxious to become the
'Trotzky Of America"

SDEPER|MENTS
REGARDED MENACE
Bishop Manning of New York
Il Takes Issue With Rev.
Henry Lewis.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK. June 17.-Advocates
OF "sex experiments" are menace to
the community, Bishop William T.
Manning of the Episcopal Diocese OF
New York, declares in a statement
made public today, in which he took
issue with the Rev. Henry Lewis,
rector of st. Andrews Church, Ann
Arbor, Mich
The Rev. Mr.. Lewis was quoted as
having inquired whether the church
might not do better to recognize 'un-
married unions" among the younger
generation, at the National Congress
OF the Protestant Episcopal Church,
in session at San Francisco.
"T hope Mr.. Lewis will disavow
these views" Bishop Manning said,
for any man who defends or approves
unmarried unions is out Of place in
the ministry Of the Episcopal Church
or any other church,
straight thinking and true-hearted
young people will resent and reject
any such teaching. We have had a
most striking evidence of the kind Of
STUFF that Is In our young people by
the modesty, poise, clear moral judg.
ment and courage exhibited by Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh."

WOMAN FIGHTS
RAIL MERCER
Hills Daughter Objects to
Financial Scheme.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Aug. ia woman
may have the proverbial last word
in merger proceedings of the North
ern Pacific, Great Northern and
Spokane, Portland and Seattle.
Clara Hill Lindley, daughter of
the the late James J. Hill, North
west railroad builder, and her hus-
band, Erasmus G. Lindley, have
petitioned the Interstate Commerce
Commission to intervene. They are
in favor of the merger, the petition
ers say, but disapprove of The man
ner in which it is being formed.
They point out that the new
Delaware corporation which will
lease the three companies could de-
prive 80 per cent of the stockholders
of the Northern lines of q return on
their investment for ninety-nine
years. The petitioners also question
legality of the deposit agreement,
object to the Withholding of the
terms of the leases until large
amounts of stocks of the two North
ern systems have been deposited,
and believe the Great Northern
should be the center of the merger.
In response to Mrs. Lindleys petit
ton, as well as to several others, the,
Interstate Commerce Commissid
has postponed hearings from Oct. y
to Oct. "a.
Charles D. Mahaffie, finance COM
missioner, will conduct the hearings
at Minneapolis.

GRAIN FUTURES
RISE SLIGHTLY
IN CHICAGO PIT
Bad Weather and Frost Re-
ports From Canada Boost
Wheat Prices.

CHICAGO, Aug. ia good up
turn for grain futures on the Chi
cago Board of Trade was noted in
the early part of today's session
after an opening with wheat prices
&c to sc higher, corn 1sc to &c
higher and oats &c to sc up.
While reports of frost damage
from Canada late Tuesday were
termed sensational, the market
failed to hold the earlier bulge due
to selling by a number of eastern
longs for profit. Traders expect
the next price upturn to be in
wheat, and it is believed that hold
ers of corn are selling and buying
wheat and rye.
News in corn was little changed
to-day. The crop is still late and
promises the. worst harvest in years
This bullish news has already served
to raise futures in this pit and has
