ALLISON DEFEATS
|NVINC|BLE C0CHET
Youthful Texan Beats Worlds
Tennis Champ Today
OBSERVERS ARE AMAZED
Winner, Who Ranks Seventh In {.
S., Outplays Veteran With Terrific
Onslaught In British Champion
shin

Wimbledon. Eng. June 80 Pi-
Wilmer Allison, youthful American
Davis cup tennis player, sprang a
sensational upset today by eliminat-
ing Henri Cochet, worlds tennis
champion, in straight sets in the
quarter-fnals of the British cham
pionships, Allison won at 6-4, 6.4
6-3.
Like Bolt From Blue
Allison's victory came like a bolt
from the blue. The dashing Texan
ranks only seventh in singles among
United States players and is consid-
cred at his best in doubles. Against
the redoubtable Cochet he was ex-
pected to be lucky to take a single
set.
Cochet, the defending champion,
was swept off his feet by the i'm
petuosity of the Austin, Texas boys
attack, while the gallery looked on
in establishment at the biggest upset
seen here in many a day.
Allison has been playing greatest
tennis ever, since his arrival in Eng
land but he never before reached
the heights attained in beating the
champion. The blond Texas was
given a great ovation by the throng
of $4,000 that damned the center
court stands.
II was the first time Cochet had
been beaten by an American since
1927, when Bill Tilden did so in the
Davis Cup challenge round and John
Hennessey stopped him in the ma
tional championships at Forest
Hills.
Cochet had been looked upon as
virtually unbeatable and the Ameri-
can Davis Cup team had had little
hope of uncovering a player who
could defeat him.

third ranking American player de-
feated his countryman, Gregory
Mangin of Newark, n. j., 6-3. Is,

WHEAT PRICES
DROP IN PANIC
Storehouses Filled But
JObless StarVe

T CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-The sharp
drop in wheat prices today is sharp
ening the farm crisis. Prices
crashed to the lowest point in many
years in frenzy of selling which
operators describe as a crash COM
parable to the stock market panic
of last October.
Average wheat prices have de-
clined more than So cents in the last
three weeks from the summer high
of $1.6O.
Attempts of the imperialist con-
trolled Federal Farm Board to halt
the precipitous drop in wheat and
cotton prices have not helped the
situation bit. The grain elevators
are overflowing with wheat due to
the facts that exports are dropping
rapidly and the visible supply of
wheat is greater tran in the history
of U. S. capitalism, The mass un-
enjoyment throughout the world,
and the fact that 100000 Ameri-
can workers are jobless, accounts to
a large extent for the shrinkage of
the market for wheat.
Chairman of the Federal Farm
Board, Legge, admitted that the
situation was critical. The growing
farm crisis will be intensified and
will in turn worsen the general cri-
sis of U. S. imperialism.

Haly,s Women

unemployment

ROME-The signs of economic
crisis in Italy are becoming palmer
every day. The army of the unem-
ployed keeps steadily swelling. For
the whole country this army is IN
the neighborhood of one million; IN
Turin, center of the automobile in
dustry, there are more than 10000
men idle. Work there is only Tor
three or four days a week. Ship
building in Venezia- Giulia is prac-
tically at standstill.
We here give recent information
regarding the position of the women
workers in those districts where IN
dustry employs large numbers OF
women.
In and around Bergamo unem-
ployment is steadily increasing,
naturalization is being forced on,
and generally what with unemploy-
ment so rife and other things, the
government itself is organizing the
emigration of workers and peasants.
According to "Layie Proletarienne'
for January IL, 10000 workers and
peasants from Bergamo district
alone were marked down for emigra-
ton on September 20.
The following figures indicate
how unemployment is spreading
among the women workers. In the
textile mill owned by Senator Crespi
there were in 1922, 5000 persons en-
ployed (the bulk women), 1928,
1000; 1929, 5000.
Working conditions in this mill
are simply appalling. Hunger and
overwork have exhausted the mill
