RULE FAILURE
Van Nuys Fails Broken
Promises to Farmers.

BIZ Times Special
WINAMAC, sept. 29-Failure of
the Republicans to redeem their
1924 platform pledge to stabilize
conditions in agriculture, industry
and labor was charged by Frederick
Van Mugs, Democratic candidate for
United States senator, at a rally
here Wednesday night.
The American farmer must be
aided in every practical way" Van
Mugs pledged. Farm values pro-
gressively have declined until they
have now reached a new low level
On a national average, such values
are lower now than for more than
twenty years past. This condition
must be alleviated by proper legisla-
ton to prevent the total collapse of
basic industry.
THE plight of the American
farmer was before congress in the
Coolidge administration The Re
publican platform in 1924 recog-
nized that the nation faced fun
damental problem as the welfare of
the nation as whole is dependent
upon the prosperity and well being
of the agricultural population.
1T made a scacred pledge to take
whatever steps are necessary to
bring back a balanced condition in
agriculture, industry and labor.
Search in vain for any redemp-
ton of that pledge by the Repub-
lican administrations from 1924 I'M
til today" declared Van Mugs.

formidable revolt against japanese

BIRTH CONTROL
HELD BIC NEED
IN PUERTO RICO
Urged as Federal Policy to
Help Solve Problem of
0verpopuIation.
BY RUTH FINNEY
Times staff Writer

WASHINGTON. Sept. 29-Puerto
Ricos hurricane has crowded from
the front pages report just for
warded TO the war department by
Governor General James r. Bever-
ley, describing a permanent condi-
ton in the islands of even greater
gravity than the temporary disas-
ter.
Beverley urges the drastic remedy
OF birth control for the little islands
tremendous over population.
The population of Puerto Rico
has been increasing with alarming
rapidity, according to the 1880 CEN
sus and estimates made since.
Beverley, according to word from
San Juan, calls attention to this
condition in his report, and points
out that there can be only three
Observation-Disclosures of new
industries in Puerto Rico to furnish
employment to many. persons, ex-
tensive emigration, or a decrease in
the birth rate.
Beverley has preached the neces-
sity for birth control ever since his
inauguration as governor, but the
Puerto Rican legislature refused to
act on mis- recommendation for leg
islation making it legal.
During the last year there has
been a net increase of 20.4 per thou
sand in the population Of the is
lands, bringing the total to 1899
l42 on June 30, or 1855 to the
square mile.
Beverly repeatedly has called at
tention TO the fact that this is too
dense a population for an area
which must remain largely agficul-
tural and that standards of living
and health conditions can not i'm
prove until it is reduced
Beverley's annual report was re-
ceived at the war department al
most simultaneously with word of
the destructive hurricane, and it is
being held until Beverly finds time
to wire instructions for releasing it.
1t is the first report to be made
by a prominent official urging a
federal birth control policy.

TAX LEVY is SLASHED
Franklin Township Rate 84.9 Cents,
Compared With SO Cents Now.

Decrease was shown in the 1888
tax levy of Franklin township filed
with County Auditor Charles A.
Grossart. The township advisory
board fixed the 1888 rate at $40
cents, compared with the current
rate of SO cents.
Reduction was possible because
a 11-cent item for three-mile road
bonds included in the current rate
will not be necessary in the coming
year.
The board assessed levy of .02
cents for the township fund Al
cents for the special school fund,
IS cents for the tuition fund, .O18943
for poor relief and .05 cents for
bonds.

Congratulations, Charley!

Golfers, who like to cheat themselves by not counting strokes. handing in lower scores than they know they had. and arguing for the biggest handicap they can get. may take a leaf from the book of Charley Clare. 1891 state ama- teur champion. who was beaten at Shuttle Meadow yesterday. one up by 20 year old Archie Hovanesian. The winner was afterward disqual- flied on technical grounds. that he had acted as eaddy since his 18th birthday and therefore was not an amateur. in the strict sense of the word. Which. however. did not affect Clare's attitude one bit. though the disqualification allowed Clare to continue in the tourney. Understand. please, that he was the state champion. defending his title, and could have remained in play. Instead, he said: T was beaten fair and square. The fact that my opponent was disqual:- fled on technical grounds. is hard luck. which I don't care to take advantage of. and will not re- enter the play" Sportsmanship. with a capital "S'. isn't it?

Petrolle Means Poison to Signor Battalino

Whether or not these Petrolle boys have the well-known Indian sign on Bat Battalino. ex-feather- weight champion of the world. or whether they hit too hard and often to suit him is not the point. but it's a certainty that Bat must have been softened up consider ably by the two run-overs he ex- perieneed at the hands of the Fargo Express. Last night. along came another and younger Petrolle. Frankie. of Sehneetady. N. Y.. to outpunch Bat in the opinion ot both judges and referee at th' Greensboro. thereby winning the decision over Bat. who was } to shot to beat him. Not only that, but he also won shiny. new automobile. which Brother Bill promised him. if he beat Battalino. Ain't that sumthin'?

PHIL BROSSEAU
 BOXES IN HARTF'D
State Champ Listed on Amateur Card To-mor- row Along With Johnny BellinO

Hartford, June 29.-Phil Brous- seau, hard hitting light heavy weight of Waterbury. will appear at Capitol Park, tomorrow night. Brousseau is the states light heavyweight and by far one of the outstanding amateur fighters in the state.
 The Waterbury youngster won a place for himself in the hearts of local amateur boxing fans when he forced the ebony Nanny Davis of Poughkeepsie to travel at top speed through three rounds at Capitol Park last summre. Nanny won the decision but he was hard pressed.
 The Poughkeepsie boy fought under an assumed name and sev- eral weeks later appeared under his rightful title lost an exceeding ly close bout to Frankie O'Brien of Hartford, former New England middleweight champion. This spring Brousseau entered the state championships at St Mary's in East Hartford and waded through to capture the light heavy- weight title without undue trouble. In the summer campaign he has trimmed Willie Ward of Hartford, the state heavyweight champion. despite the great difference in weight.
 Just whom Brousseau will meet tomorrow night has not yet been decided but a suitable opponent will be provided. Another clever | boy scheduled to see action Is Johnny Bellino of Waterbury. Johnny is one of the better anna teurs among the lighter boys.

 Martins triple in the fourth inn ing yesterday flustered the Reds, who were fresh from series of five defeats by the Pittsburgh Pi- rates. Martin drove in Flowers. and came home promptly himself on a passed ball.
 From thef, on. the Reds were lost. They fumbled. failed to judge flies, and refused to take advant- age of six walks which Wild Bill Hallahan donated them.

Miss Jacobs won by 7-5, 6-1.
 It was a long match which in- cluded many uninteresting rallies. Miss Jacobs made soft returns of Mime Mathieu's speedy drives. One rally ball crossed the net 9s times.
 Easy Victory
 Miss Jacobs never trai1ed her opponent although Mme Mathieu pulled up to five-all.in the first set after trailing at 3-5. Mme Mathieu was visibly annoyed when Miss Jacobs occasionally forced suspen- sion of play for a few seconds to adjust her blue bandeau. Mime Mathieu also looked appealingly at her husband who was seated in the stands, when a questionable line decision was made.
 The congratulations of the win ner and condolences of the loser were accomplished in a manner worthy of one of the famous Moody-Jacobs greetings. This time it was a handshake instead of a touching of finger tips. but the handshake was most perfunctory. The accomplished Mime Mathieu established precedent by walking off the court alone instead of wait ing for Miss Jacobs.
