M Hurley is one manager who

wear much better than
Younger ones. Jack is in town
with Billy Petrolle. The Fargo
Express was thought to have shot
his bolt three years ago and here
he is still in demand and slated
to tackle the young Hollander,
Bep Van Klaveren, next month.
Hurley had visions of cutting into a
world title melon with Charley Retz-
laf after Petrolle had been on the
sidelineS several months. Retzlaf failed
to come through, and when he was
stopped by Isidoro Gastanaga he was
passed up as a title threat.
DILLY PETROLLE and his old In
d dian blanket became familiar
sight soon after the stiff-legged
Fargoan surprised the fans by winning
verdicts over Tony Canzoneri and
Jimmy McLarnin. There was plenty
of fight left in the old man, and
it made Hurley's heart glad to see
his redoubtable warrior show some of
the stuff that made him one OF the
most dangerous punchers the light
weight division ever knew.
Last November Petrolle was offered a
match with Canzoneri for the light
weight title. Against Hurleys better

rasslers, and Pat O'Shocker, one
# the heftieSt.
Both matches are slated for a finish,
.opping the weekly five-bout card which
begins at $50 O'Clock.
Shikat, former German naval officer,
and Jones, a florist in private life, have
clashed once before in Washington.
O'Shocker and Coleman are meeting
for the first time and while neither
can approach Shikat in cleverness and
skill, they probably are more evenly
matched than the other top-shot
hefties.

ment in raising wages and farm

consumer resistance to the prices

Dividend Prospects
But, aside from appreciation Of
inventories. companies which
have no profits or dividend pos
sibilities are not going to benefit
by mere initiation. If they pay
no dollars, what difference does
it make what happens to the
dollar?
Thus far in the latest initiation
rally I note that a relatively few
active issues have been the chief
factor. The total volume of
trading has not responded to
markups as it did last summer.
An abnormally wide spread be-
tween bid and asked quotations
prevails, as has been the case
since July, and shows a thin
market.
This makes for sharp moves,
but not for sustained ones.
Logical Holding Stocks
Is seems to me that holding
sound gold stocks as a hedge
against the dollar is still logical,
and that such stocks may be
bought on recessions. CThey will

Oil Code Advances
Production Costs

Increased labor costs under the

the cost of production of crude
oil, it is pointed out in the cur
rent T. S. Hose review, which
estimates that to maintain the
same amount of labor under the
code as was maintained during
the four years ended with 1880,
the cost of production of a barrel
of crude would advance from
$1.09 to $1.55.
This large increase is due to
the fact that the lifting of a bar
rel of oil out of the ground is
almost entirely a question of Ia
Dor and that the oil producers
have been accustomed to. work
