Vienna tell of how, in the SEVENTEEN
congress of the International Chamber
of Commerce, the United States was
bitterly denounced by Charles Boisse-
vain of Holland for what he called
its Immoral" monetary course. He
condemned the behavior of those ma
tons which abandon the gold stand

also what he described as the "repudi-

termed an international attempt to

mean the abolition of American ships.

found a new home in this vicinity.
Throughout the evening, excite

finely trained dogs dashed around
the track in pursuit of the electri-

ment prevailed during the running
of the monkey races, in which the
much heralded Hollywood monkey
Jockeys piloted their mounts around
the track, Vainly striving to be
first under the wire. These Sim

lights of the evening.

MACK : SALES
WRECK TEAM
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent

! CHICAGO, Dec. Is. = A drastic
realignment of strength in the Am
erican League and adoption of a
livelier ball by the National League
were the principal results of the
annual Joint session of the major
leagues.
The Boston Red SoX, Detroit Tig-
erS and Chicago White SoX gained
in player strength at the expense
OF the Philadelphia Athletics. Con-
ME Mack dismantled the team he
had spent 10 years in building to
one of the greatest in baseball.
Mack completed the sale of the
stars that carried his team to the
American League championship in
1929. 1880 and 1881. His 1929 and
1880 clubs also won in the world
series in those years.
Last year he sent Jimmy Dykes,
AL Simmons and Mule Haas to the
White Sox and this year Pitcher
George EarnShaw joined his former
teammates. Mickey Cochrane was
sold to Detroit, where he will man
age the Tigers next season.

Grove and Max Bishop went to the
Boston Red SoX in exchange for
Pitcher Bob Kline, ShortStop Har-
old Warstler and cash, reported to
have been $150,000.
Bankers Forced Deal
With the sale of his stars, the
gaunt Athletics leader was back
from where he started after wreck
ing his 1914 team. The wholesale
transfer of players, by which he
realized $250,000 or more, was neces-
sary to satisfy his bankers.
Other American League deals in
cluded the trade of Carl Reynolds
by the st. Louis Browns to the Bos-
ton Red SoX for pitcher Ivy An
drews, and the exchange of out
fielder Jonathan Stone by Detroit
to Washington for outfielder Goose
GoSlin.
The nearest the National League
came to an exchange of players was
when a joint conference of Boston
Braves, st. Louis Cardinals and
Chicago Cubs officials broke up
with the announcement that no
agreement was reached.

ROSE SCHOOL
WILL SPEND
MORE MONEY

Voters in the Rose school district
unanimously, all 80 of them, voted
yesterday in favor of spending more
than the five per cent limitation
allowed them under the new state

This law provides that a school
district may not exceed by more
than five per cent in its eXpei.dl-
lures over tie amount spent the
previous year, except by vote Of the
district or by appeal granted by the
state board of equalization.
As a result of this law, Rose
school district found itself in the
peculiar predicament of having
money available but being unable
TO spend it without vote Of the dis
trict.

In this complaint it is alleged
that the defendant district in vio-
lation of the terms of tie contract
had constructed some canals across
some drainage bitches in such a
manner as to obstruct the flow of
water through the plaintiffs
bitches and so render them useless.
1t is further claimed that when this
matter was called to the attention
of the defendant and the latter was
asked to remedy the difficulty, Il
failed to do so with the result that
the plaintiff was forced to construct
necessary culverts at these cross
ings at a cost of $1856.35. This

CARNERA HAS
DUMB STREAK
AS WIT NESS

NEW YORK, Dec Is. U.P) -
Primo Camera, the bankrupt heavy
weight champion, was expected to
sign today for a Is round title
bout with Tommy Loughran for
Miami, Feb. %, before winding up
a "a hour visit to the United States
and returning to Italy
Camera, who claims to have been
passed up by the millions which
made other heavyweight champions
wealthy, needs such a bout to re-
upholster his empty wallet.
Bankrupt, pressed by creditors
and repeatedly questioned by Uncle
Sam regarding the incomes of one
of his former managers, 'Da Preem"
found his brief visit to New York
anything but enjoyable.
Landing yesterday, Primo hast
ened to the hearing at which cred
itors opposed his bankruptcy action.
On the stand Camera was the per-
sonification Of stupidity. Whether it
was eXtemporaneous or staged, no
one knows. His financial matters
were entirely in the hands of his
manager, Louis Soresi, who, in
cidentally, he had forgotten to bring
to America with him.
What did he receive from his
title bout with Jack Sharkey? He
guessed, about $500" What did
he get for mauling Paolino Uzcudun
at Rome? "Oh, l dunno-maybe
1900 What did he owe his man
ager? Il dunno"
However, Camera did know that
he wanted his hearing postponed,
and it was postponed until Feb. /.
The Man Mountain" exhibited
bandaged right hand. He had
fractured it in his bout with
Uzcudun. He had to return i'm
to Milan for treatment.

The attorney who represented
the London waitress, who had OBJ
tanned a $4,000 judgment against
the champion for breach OF prom
Use, was irate.

were slated for trial Thursday on
charges of evading Duffy's income

ates.
