REPORT. BOXER
MAY SUCCUMb
Ace Hudkins In Serious Con-
dition Following Shooting In
Coast Brawl.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 7. tU.Pi -
Ace Hudkins, who has tasted the
bitter and the sweet of fistic fame,
was scheduled to go under sur
geon's knife today to ward off the
threat of death.
Shot twice, in what was described
as beer parlor brawl, the one time
Nebraska Wildcat" was reported
in a serious condition. One shot,
allegedly fired by r. H. Harris, beer
parlor operator, pierced the right
upper lobe of his lung, the second
penetrated his pelviS.
Hudkins was wounded after he
and several friends entered Harris
establishment early yesterday. Har-
ris said the fighter was in a bel
ligerent mood and promptly start
ed punching several patrons When
he intervnd, Harris said he was re-
buked in certain abusive language
and that when he demonstrated
further, Hudkins drew gun. Har-
ris allegedly fired twice. The pro-
prietor was booked at police station
on, a charge of suspicion of assault
with a deadly weapon.
HudkinS has had a string of es-
capades since he first flared across
the fistic horizon as promising
lightweight in 1924. Always a rough
and ready fighter, he often carried
his rousing temperament outside the
ring. He was arrested in 1881 on a
charge of driving while intoxicat-
ed. Convicted, he was placed on a
years probation but the leniency
did not deter him from again being
arrested a year later on a charge
of being intoxicated and disorderly
conduct. For this he was fined $40
Romantic Also
His love affairs came under court
scrutiny at one time when he was
sued by Miss Reah w. Hill, an en-
tertainer, who asked 100000 on
charges he broke promise to mar
ny her, betrayed her and twice beat
her. Hudkins denied the charges
and won complete court victory.
He was again the defendant in a
court action when T. Leonard Park
sued him for $4,000 on charges the
boxer hit him so hard one night
outside the ring that he was un-
conscious an entire week before he
could personally survey the dam
age. The jury assessed dollar judg-
ment against Hudkins but new
trial has recently been ordered by a
higher court.
In between his court appearances,
HudkinS has been in and out of the
local ring. He declared a morator-
ium on his fight routine, however,

EASES
POSITION ON
VALLEY LOANS

A change in the policy of the
federal land bank regarding loans
to be made ranchers and farmers
in the county, is noted in a letter
dated July Is, from William A.
Woolf, agent of the 18th district
and land bank commissioner, re-
ceived by Scott B. Foulds, secretary
of the Imperial county Farm Bur-
eau. Foulds has been absent for a
few days and was unable to make
public the information contained
in this communication earlier.
In this communication, Woolf,
set forth that it was thought that
no such loans would be made in
this section of the state. He states,
however, that there is now change
of policy and that the land bank
will consider individual farmers
and their needs.
His letter states in part that in
order to carry out the intent of
congress It now appears desirable,
in some cases, that commissioners
loans be considered in areas in
which the federal land bank may
not be justified in making long
term mortgage loans but where
there are extenuating circumstances
which may indicate that shorter
period loans can be made.
Woolf said further that there is
no desire to encourage flood OF
hopeless applications, through this
change of policy, but to extend the
services of this department to
every farmer possible, where there
is reasonable assurance of safety
and when there is a doubt to give
the applicant the benefit Of such
doubt and forward the applica-
ton.
Foulds stated this morning in
this connection that he will i'm
mediately send in an application
for loan. of the urgent type, on
very good land here in Imperial
Valley and test the provisions of
this changed policy. His future &C
tons in this direction will be guild
ed by the reception given this ap-'
plicatiOn, he said.
Foulds and others interested in
obtaining loans for valley ranchers,
are greatly encouraged by the at
titude of Woolf, who has shown
much interest in valley conditions
and has exhibited a sympathetic
understanding of problems con-
fronting rancherS here.
This application was accompani-
ed by a personal letter from Evan
T. Hewes, president of the farm
bureau, to o. R. Angelillo, thank
ing him for his sympathetic CO.
operation up to the present time
and asking him to use his best eff
forts in supporting this application.

CUBAN STRIKE
GETS WORSE
american Envoy Said To Have
Suggested Solution Calling On
Machado To Resign.

HAVANA, Cuba, Aug. Z. W.H =
Sumner Welles, United States am
bassador, told foreign correspon-
dents today he had proposed So
luton for Cuba's political troubles
which was expected to prove ac-
ceptable to oppositionists and lead
ers of all political parties.
He made the announcement as
the islands general strike reached
serious proportions, with a grave
shortage Of food and reports of vio-
lence.
Welles refused to divulge the ma
ture of his plans but it was under
stood to embrace resignation of
President Gerardo Machado.
The ambassador said the situation
was OF the utmost gravity and it
was impossible TO forecast what
situation would develop unless So
luton is reached promptly.
HAVANA, Aug. 7. W.p-Congress
was called into special session today
to deal with strike situation SC
serious that American-ayranged po-
lltical peace negotiations were rae
ing against the outbreak of revo-
luton.
The powerful ABC revolutionary
organization was understood to be
sending throughout the country
from a secret radio station direc-
tons to the public for its guidance
and statements that the strike
should be made the August revolu-
ton" to depose President Gerardo
Machado. The government was at
tempting to blanket the broad
casts.
Many government employees were
expected to join today in a strike
that has affected almost every line
of normal activity, and has so para
lyzed the country that some steam
ships arriving here have left at
once without unloading passengers
or cargo.
President Machado summoned
congress to consider the strike in
extraordinary sessions at 3 p. m.
today. He was expected to ask sus-
pension of constitutional guaran-
tees, to allow the government to
use the .nny :, forcing strikers
back to their jobs.
AS a preliminary Machado caused
to be posted throughout the CAPT.
tai over his name a decree author
izing the police to turn over their
authority to the army whenever
the situation required and author
izing the army to assume authority
without notice if necessary.
Bad as it was here, the strike
situation was worse in the prov
inces. In many towns it was gen.
eral, affecting all workers. Many
towns reported riots.

That's one of the best yet.
Unions are fine things, for
they are in every line of bust
