WHERE TO GETBREAD
 THE BIG QUESTION

Whatever turn things may take in the future, it is certain Al Smith made an unpopular move when he came out against President Roose- welt on the money question. It is bread and an opportunity to earn the wherewithal to purchase it, that is uppermost in the minds of the people today, and anything that might have a tendency to in- terfere with the success of the present plan, until something bet ter is offered, is srue to meet with strong resentment from people in all walks of life.

Take Your Pick!

"There they are" says Demp-
Sey, in effect. "Take your pick"
But the most interesting thing
to us in Dempsey's latest literary
effort did not concern the inn
pending fight nor either of the
principals. It concerned Primo
Carnera, for whom Dempsey
seems to have some little regard.
Half of the fight world is still
undecided whether Camera is
just big truck horse or a
heavyweight champion in the
makings. Some Of his appear
anceS have been touched with
suspicion. others with tragedy,
and others with the earmarks Of
future greatness, and it seems
to us that, in view of this, Demp-
sey's appraisal is important.
Jack seems to think Carnera
is coming along. He has learned
a lot about handling himself in
the ring. He has lost much Of
his clumsiness and is hitting
harder and landing more often
with what looks to be MUIR

Happy Combination

Jack is out after the crowd
and many observers seem to be-
1ieve that with anything like a
decent price scale for his Schme-
lng-Baer fight outdoors month
after next in New York, the
crowd will be there. The per-
sonality of Dempsey as promo
ter. with Schmeling furnishing
the foreign flavor and with
Baer acknowledged the head Of
the American contenders, are
expected to prove the combina-
tion which will put the fight
business back on a mass pro-
duction basis this summer.
Dempsey starts the ballyhoo
for his show with a signed
story in the current issue of
Liberty in which he discusses
what might be termed the up
per bracket of heavyweights.
He gives his two gladiators Of
his June fight plenty of play
and we'll justifies their Selec-
ton to head his coming show.
Dempsey reasons that the
current champion, Jack Shar-
key, has softened from the easy
life, whereas Schmeling is in his
prime and that Baer is the
best of the younger crop in
vew of the impressive list of
gladiators he has tumbled over
