LEWIS AGAIN CAN
CLAIM MAT TITLE
Shikat Is Victim of Three
HeadIocks in Bout Seen
by $4,000 Customers.
BY ALFRED DAYTON.

BY Affixed DAYTON.
n YEW YORK, June 10.-Ed
M tStrangler) Lewis, grizzled
Y veteran of 20 years in the
wrestling wars, today again
stands as a claimant to the title he has
held at various times in his elamorous
career. Last night at the unveiling OF
the new Madison Square Garden Bowl
in Long Island City he toppled over
Dick Shikat, another former champion
ending the Germans hopes with three
crushing headlocks. l hour 6 minutes
and 7 seconds after referee Gunooat
Smith had sent them into action.
TWenty-three thousand saw the match
and the estimated receipts were $4,000.
Lewis admitted after the bout that he
entered the ring with the main idea OF
tiring Shikat. Seldom did he put On
two holds in succession. Always he was
on the defensive, making Shikat DO all
the work and burn up all the energy
As they passed the hour mark Shikat
went in fer killing, reaching for his
half nelson and crotch hold to lift Lewis
high above his head and slam him TO
the canvas. Always Lewis just managed
to escape, even though Shikat INDUCED
partially in the lifting act. Recklessly
he rushed in. heaving and pulling on
Lewis, but never able to get the
Stranger more than foot off the floor.
Sensing Shikat weakening from these
futile struggles Lewis sailed in with his
first really furious attack. He leaped
on Shikat as the German came off the
ropes and clamped on deadlock which
bordered closely on the strangle.
Another instant and Shikat was SAIL
ing through the air to land heavily on
the mat. Again Lewis repeated the
trick. and once more he wrapped his
massive arms around Shikat's head. The
third time decided the issue. So firmly
did Lewis put over his deadlock that
Shikat never moved an inch and both
his shoulders were pinned securely.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April 30.-Con-
viction Of Rogers Caldwell, head of the
81 Co., on charges of fraudulent breach
Of trust and his prison sentence of one
to three years were reversed today by
d, the Tennessee Supreme Court, which
sharply criticized the trial judge for
considering privately procured evi-
dence."
The action remands the case to
Davidson County Criminal Court for a
new trial.
Referring to the procedure under
which the investment banker was found
guilty, the court said:
Concur in Decision.
''The trial Judge did not rest his con-
clusion upon the evidence before him,
but states that he went outside of court
and outside the record and privately
procured evidence which he considered
in connection with the legal evidence In
adjudging that the evidence introduced
by the defendant to support the motion
for continuance was untrue"
The decision, In which all five justices
concurred and which was read by the
stately justice, William L. Cook, criti-
ciZed Criminal Court Judge Chester K
Hart for making the private investiga-
ton.
The trial was ill-timed, the court
ruled, in that the jury was drawn from
"a public whose interest had been
aroused by bank failures and by the
financial distress of the entire COM
munity, famed and kept alive by con-
tinued broadSideS from an active and
influential press and by legislative in
vective and Investigation to the very
day the trial was begun
Lack Of Evidence Seen.
The court also pointed to what 1t
termed lack of evidence that Caldwell
himself knew of the trust violations
by other officers of the corporation"
until after they were committed.
, Caldwell, whose personal wealth once
was rated in financial reports at ST.
.000 900, sat in the court room with his

The Federal farm board bowling to the inevitable,
is about to sell its sterilization" cotton.
And thus viii end another experiment in price
pcggne. the first half Of which was a failure.
Politicians finally agreed on a farm relief measure
some four years ago They had a fair but foolish
dream They saw the government buying up the
surplus and prices rising as result
In the face Of the Brazilian failure to peg coffee
prices and the British failure to peg rubber prices,
this government through its federal farm board, be-
came cotton factor
1t bought cotton ana then il bought more until the
farm board through its cotton sterilization corpora
ton. owned 100000 bales The government loaned
money on cotton and then it loaned more until the
farm boards co-operatves held 100000 bales.
Here the first half Of the price-peggng experiment
was ended. The poor, weary farmer With few
acres Of bottom land and a mule supposed to
have received at least the cost OF producing his staple
But he hadn't; and he hasn't
They say the purchases cushioned the farmer and
the market against even lower prices We hope that's
true.
The government had its cotton; the farmer had low
prices and the cotton trade had the fear that the
board would dispose Of some OF its holdings. Germany
wanted to buy some federal farm board cotton but the
cotton trades vigorous protest stopped this sale
The brokers urged the cotton be burned, or dumped
IN the sea or held forever The board finally agreed
to hold its cotton of the market through this cotton
year. and the co-operatives agreed TO do the same
Now the board has announced that in the fiscal
wear beginning next August, it viii sell $4,000 bales

That was inevitable. Having bought it has to sell.
The market may suffer while this cotton is being
sold and the government stands to lose large sum
Of money.
But market ups. or market downs. government loss
or government gain the board must rid itself of its
cotton That is inevitable.
And when all its cotton is sold and all its wheat
Is sold or given away the federal farm board can
give more time to that part Of its work which promises
some benefit 10 the farmer-namely the furtherine
Of cooperative organizations.
