NEW FORD OFFERING
RUMORED TO BE VS.

of its dealers throughout the coun-
try by the time of the January
automobile shows. the trade expects
that sufficient samples of the eight
will be built to exhibit at strategic
locations by early January.
1T is doubtful that large scale
activity on the new cars can be ini-
tiated for some weeks to come, but,
in view of the normally slack de-
mand encountered during mid-win~
ter, this factor is not likely to prove
an important drawback to Ford.
"As for the remaining manufac-
turers. operations have gradually
gained, as various assembling units
have reopened or production has
been speeded to prepare dealer and
show samples. The extreme caution
regarding production schedules in
late weeks is not likely soon to be
materially dissipated, in view of the
present character of Ford's plans.
While General Motors already
has introduced the 1882 Chevrolet.
it is known fact that a line of
Chevrolet eight-cylinder cars could
be quickly placed on the market.

feasibility Of such action"

boss here. I say Tonys gonna
fight. All right, Mr.. Galloway, Tony
can fight
"THAT settled that, but the next
l. was totally unexpected. A
doctor examining the boys that
night said Tony had a weak heart
and should not go on.
Il didn't know what to Go. Tony's
father had said he could fight, and
if he didn't his mother would have
to know why. If I told her, she'd
have blamed it on boxing and only
worried more.
But DR.. Gomila, present city
commissioner of New Orleans,
saved the day for me and perhaps
saved Tony Canzoneri for the box
ing world. He happened along and
1 asked him to examine Tony.
This is fine boy, Johnny, and
looks like a champion, DR.. Gomila
said after his examination. And
Tony went out to win the 100-pound
championship"
TINE rest of the story has been
Il told by Tony's humping fists.
He gained the featherweight cham
pionShip in a fight with Benny Bass
and lost it in another with Andre
Routis. Sammy Mandel repulsed
his efforts to land the lightweight
title, but Al Singer couldn't do it
a few months later
He then gambled his new crown
against Jackie Kid Berg's junior
welterweight title and came out
with two championships.
Canzoneri said three years ago
that he would retire if he was sue
ceSsful in his quest for three world
championships. He has them now,
counting the featherweight crown
he won and lost a few years ago.
Will he retire? Not yet. He's
going to give Bat Battalino, the
featherWeight champion, chance
at his crown next month. And
there are other scraps to come.

BUSINESS HEADS
EXPECT UPTURN
AFTER HOLIDAYS
Improvement Is Looked For
in Automobile, Steel
Industries.
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK. Dec. 26.-The cur
rent holiday season will be followed
by the usual upturn early in Janu-
airy. according to bushes opinion.
The year-end always is marked
by dwindling activity in all lineg
not dependent upon special holiday
gift buying and invariably is fol-
lowed by improvement as steel mills,
automobile plants and other BUSH
nesses resume normal operations,
Whether January'S improvement
will mark definite change in the
downward trend of general business
will depend largely upon intangible
influences. But business leaders are
hopeful of the new year.
The past weeks business develop
ments gave no clue as to Just what
may be expected Steel mill opera
tions declined to a further new low
for the depression at approximately
18 per cent of capacity. and other
major industries like railroads and
automobiles suffered similarly.
New Deal on War Debts
The fact that Christmas came at
the end of the week caused greater
curtailment than usual because
many buSin SIS houses took advan-
tage of the situation to declare a
three-day holiday. All the major
stock and commodity exchanges
closed down for three days.
Most important in the weeks
business developments again was
the foreign situation. The admins
tration finally obtained approval of
lts one-year war debt moratorium.
The Presidents signature was
hardly dry on the moratorium bill.
however, when the committee in
VeStlgatlng Germany's capacity to
pay further reparations, called for
an immediate and complete new
deal on war debts and reparations
to avert new disasters" This re-
port was expected to keep the Ger
man situation in the limelight
Another significant foreign de-
Velopment was the declaration of a
moratorium on its foreign debts
payable in other than its own cllr-
rency by Hungary. Such a develoD-
ment, expected for some time. led
10 fears other southeastern Euro
pean nations would follow suit
Comparatively little American
money is involved.
Stocks, Bonds Erratie
In The stock and bond markets
prices moved erratically. Knowledee
that important American interests
were investing in gilt-edge bonds.
however, served to restore con-
fldence and many commodities like
grains and cotton held firm.
The railroad wage controversy
continued uppermost in the minds
Of many business men. A decision
would go far toward restoring con-
fidence.
The 3 to 4 per cent freight rate
increase recently allowed by the in
terstate commerce commission il
scheduled to go into effect midnight.
Dec. 81, and funds will be obtained
from this source to be loaned to
weaker roads through the recently
formed railroad credit corporation.
Comparatively little industrial
buying has developed in advance Of
the freight rate increases. This
apathy is explained by the desire of
most corporations to keep inventories
to minimum. Few companies are
willing to order until January.
