} He once took Mike McT1gue
and his own referee down to
Columbus, Ca, to fight the
late w. L. Stribling. Next to
Battling Skis invasion Of Dub
lin to fight McTigue on st.
Patrick's Day, Jacobs march
through Georgia was probably
the worst advised junket in the
history of boxing.
Little Joe and his intrepid
band escaped with their lives,
but Jacobs bowed a tendon
while leading the field across
the Georgia State line and
never has been a handicap per.
former since. Even to this day
a Southerner walking up behind
him Unexpectedly and saying
something in the soft drawl Of
the Land o'Cotton can make
Joey swallow his lighted cigar.
Serious Problem
Thus the problem whether ne
should 60 to Hamburg to at
tend Schmeling in this i'm
portant bout, or stay here and
send Max a cable reading,
punch with him, kid, they can't
hurt U.S." is a truly serious prob
lem with Mr.. j.
He knows he should be there
at Max's side at the zero hour.
Duty calls and Little Joey can
hear it without an ear trumpet,
but he can also hear the foot
beats of those SouthernerS
pounding a red clay Georgia
road. Mr.. j. may not be the
smartest guy in the world. He
may not even be the smartest
fight manager, but he is smart
enough to know that only the
dumbest dumbbell walks into
the same trap twice.
Oddly enough, the German
Reich really is seriously in
terested in this-to the Ger
mans-important heavyweight
match. It is one step in a plan
to try and build up interest in
sport in Germany before the
Olynpics. The government also
is said to feel that it wouldn't
be a bad idea to get the minds
of the German people off poll
tics and government for a time.
Which will be good trick, if it;
works. Although we don't see
how they can make that idea
jibe with the barring OF
Damski and the refusal to allow
him to enter the country to Sec
ond his fighter because he is a
Jew.
No True Sport
There never will be any true
sport in the German state, or
true sportsmanship, either, until
creed, code and religion are for
gotten on the athletic field and
platform.
The barring of DamSki may
make it necessary for Jimmy
Bronson, Neusel's American rep
resentative, to go to Hamburg
and handle the young German
heavy in this, his most important
fight to date.
Bronson is not Jewish. but
Joplin, and while he has no
financial interest in Neuhels
fights in Europe, efforts are
being made to bring him there
for the fight.
But even without Jim or
Joe, either, it looks as though
this will be the most important
heavyweight bout ever staged
in Germany. The guarantees,
underwritten by the govern
ment, are exceptionally high,
both men receiving upward Of
$4,000; not bad in a country
that is short on potatoes.
What I started out to say,
however, was that you can't
imagine how carefully Little
Joe is scanning the dispatches
from Germany these days.
Which shows once more what
a small world it is, Hitler tell
ing Jacobs.

as double doors, which may be
locked, lead into it from the rear
of the car seat, exposing a very
roomy compartment in which
many articles may be stored.

NNOuIluuGo 1IOH 0%C OASS
special session was the creating OF
the water conservation board to
handle the five million dollar loan
and grant from the federal gov
eminent to the eastern Montana
irrigation and water conservation
lists to improve or extened their
projects. There are approximately
one hundred and forty OF these
projects throughout the state;
furthermore, of this loan. thirty
percentum of it will be an out
right grant and will never have
to be paid back. We are in hopes
that the money will be forthcom-
ing from the federal government,
this spring, so as to put many
unemployed men to work on these
projects.
The main object of this special
session was to cooperate with the
federal government in its efforts
to bring the country back to
normal and to furnish temporary
relief for the destitute people OF
this state. We stayed with it I'M
til the program was finally put
over. Had we failed to put this
program over, the federal govern
ment would have withdrawn its
relief and thrown US on u own
resources, which would have been
disastrous and expensive for us;
but now we can rest easy.
The first signs of real recovery
have already made their appear
ance in the automobile and steel
industries, for they will be the
first to recover. However, I don't
believe our recovery will be COM
plete and permanent unless we
remonetize silver or do something
to raise the buying power of the
silver-using countries. so they
can come into our markets and
buy. Practically all of our best
customers use silver for money
and when we forced our gold dol
lar to where it was five times the
value of their dollar, they could
not buy from US, but they could
sell to US; because, when there IS
that much difference in the value
of our money and theirs. our
tariffs are ineffective.
Il believe it would be better to
raise the price of silver by re-
monetizing it than any other way,
because the price would be more
stable and would not fluctuate as
it Goes now.
Government statistics for the
last hundred and fifty years show
that commodity prices and the
price of silver have been parallel
at all times and a government
table of commodity prices and the
price of silver from 1873 until
1893 will show that striking
parallel. In those eyears silver
dropped from $1.32 to TIC per
ounce; cotton fell from 18c down
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1934-02-09
to 7 cents per ID; wheat dropped
from Sl.45 to Csc Der bushel.

to 7 cents per ID: wheat dropped
from Sl.45 to Csc Der bushel.
In 1873, when we. in common
with the countries of Europe,
adopted the single gold standard
there was a falling in prices
Throughout the world for twenty
wears, until the panic Of 1893 to
1896. Then, a. now, our leading
jpoliticians and business men
claimed that it was the invention
of labor-saving devices and over
production that caused the panic,
but since we have had time to
look back over this, we find that
it was neither one. The situation
in the nineties was temporarily
| saved by the great discovery of
' gold in South Africa and Alaska.
This gold, thrown into the none
tary systems of the world by the
hundreds of millions, revived bust
ness somewhat until the beginning
of the world war. Then our pros
perity was caused by the expan-
sion of credit by all nations and
nothing else.
1T would be far better for US
to have our money backed by both
gold and silver, for we know that
there is a limit to both Of these
metals, but there is no limit to
the printing press, if we turn to
that.
Some people put up the argu-
ment that if we remonetize silver,
we would be the dumping ground
for silver. This may be true; but
if it is. then our money and
money everywhere in the world
would be welcome, for buyers
from other nations would surely
have to take away vi produce
and manufactured articles, If they
left their silver here, and that
would take away our surplus and
create business for US.
W. must remember that sew
enty percent of the population of
this earth use silver for money
and when we do the things that
forces the price of silver down,
we only force down their buying
power, which means a loss of
business for us.
civilian Jennings Bryan said
in his speech in Chicago, in 1896:
you may take this silver question
and lock it in your strongest box,
but it is a just cause and it will
be a blessing to mankind So,
thirty-seven years after he said
this, we find eighteen million Of
our people unemployed, millions
living on charity, hundreds of
thousands walking u streets and
highways without either food or
shelter. This condition of the
world brings the silver question
to the fore once more"

The driver and passengers in the new 1884 Chevrolet
get a ride like the glide of an airplane. One Of the main
factors in improving the riding qualities of the new car
pendently sprung front wheels, to use the technical
term.
So much has been written about independent spring.
ing that the public has doubtless concluded that it is
something too technical to understand. AS a matter of
fact, there is nothing complicated about either the
principle involved or the construction Of the system.
Chevrolet's Knee Action" enjoys the advantage of
being enclosed in a welded weathertight housing in
which the entire spring mechanism and shock absorb
ers ride up and down in a bath of oil.
An automobile gives a perfect ride when both the
front and rear springs have the same Frequency" or
tension. Actually this has been impossible to carry out
in the past because the front springs had to be over
twice as "stH'' rs the rear springs in order to hold the
front axle, wheels and brakes in place. In independent
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1934-02-09

springing, the wheels and spring mechanism are rigidly
attached directly to the frame and there is no front axle.
By relieving the front springs Of the task Of carrying
the front springs as "soft' as the rear springs. When
the new Chevrolet strikes an irregularity in the road,
both front and rear move up and down with the same
frequency-there is no inclination on the part of the
rear end of the car to leap into the air and throw the
passengers forward and upward.
Chevrolets "knee.Action" has additional advantages
all contributing to a comfort in riding never before
thought possible in a motor car. There IL q decided
improvement in handling, steering, safety at high
speeds and tire economy. .
In design, the front spring Is . neat, compact and
