Harris Not Downcast.

YET with their batting still un-
Il certain and their pitchers still
in need Of a little more work,
the impending tour looks q heavy
order for the Nationals. Bucky Har-
riS admits this, but the manager does
not regard the future with pessimism.
He still insists his pitchers are capable
of checking the opposition much OF
the time, and that by the end OF this
week the entire Washington curving
corps will be ready to give as good
an account of itself as the corps OF
any other club in the league.
As to batting, the manager Is hopeful
his new order of hitters will prove a
run producing combination. The re-
vfsed list was to get its first test at
Griffith Stadium this afternoon in
the Red Sox game that the Easter
rains washed aside for day.
The changed order had Cap Myer
leading off, Cecil Travis swinging
second, Heinie Manush still in third
place, Joe Kuhel taking care Of the
cleanup position, Cliff Bolton batting
fifth, Jack Stone in the sixth notch,
Jake Powell seventh and Lyn Larry
retaining his eighth berth.

~ Max Baer told me he would Be
~ willing to Tight once . month
II somebody could only dig up
the opposition.
Today he has the chance 10 set Q
record no heavyweight, champion ever
put across-if he will start getting
ready and then keep in condition until
the job Is through.
He has Braddock for June-he can
get Schmeling for late July or Au-
gust-and then be set for the winner
Of the Carnera-Louis party in late
September.
Msx, under the Tampa and Miami
palms of January, was looking for

armful of business at hand II he cares
to use it-and the only two essentials
are hard training and top condition for
the next five months.
It may interest Max 70 know
that any number are giving

belief that the champion won't
b In shape.
He may skid by his next start out
of top condition, but he'll never get
by the other two hazards If he isn't
right.
Max Baer, fundamentally, Is q great
natural fighter. He has the heart,
he has . cool head, he can punch with
either hand, and he can absorb pun
ishment as open buds soak up the dew.
But even q great fighter so per cent
in shape is only so per cent Of a
fighting man.
Braddock, as starter, is q game,
hard-punching entry who Is sure to
be right and ready. He would have
almost no chance against q Baer

ing for a Summer campaign. It can
be quite different II he doesn't.

SPECIAL SESSION IS
URGED BY CAFE MEN
Repeal of Gross Income Tax
Asked in Petition.

The Indiana State Restaurant As
ISOLATION today voted in convention
to ask Gov. McNutt for a special
session of the Legislature for the
purpose of repeating the gross in
come tax law.
Meeting in the SEVERN. the con-
vention addressed a petition to the
Governor and listed as reasons for
its request the heavy Federal
processing taxes, the high cost of
food. and general tax situation.
The petition described the 1000
association members as impover-
iShed because of these things and
the depression, and urged a special
session because, it said, the tax sit
uatiOn could be best dealt with by
that means.
The petition termed the gross in
come tax as confiScatory, and said
that individual members of the as
ISOLATION are in danger now of los
ing their businesses.
The convention will end this aft
ernoon with election of officers and
passage of other resolutions, one of
which is expected to ask for local
option on Sunday liquor sales in
cities of $4,000 population and over.

MINERS Chief
HURLS WARNING
Lewis Threatens to Order
Militant PiCketing by
All Strikers.
By United Press


WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Threat
of militant picketing by striking
miners was injected into the soft
coal negotiations today as union
leaders sought to break the pro-
longad deadlock over the proposed
wage contract.
The walkout of 100000 miners,
now in its third day, thus far has
been peaceful and orderly.
An order from United Mine Work
erS headquarters here, however,
would swing the strikers into an
aggressive movement designed to
halt the last veStige Of activity in
the mining pits.
AS the conferences dragged on,
indications were that an agreement
that would send the miners back 20
work was near. It was learned that
contract forms we're being drawn up
yesterday, showing the belief in both
camps that the conference would
not break up without a settlement
of the wage controversy.
The threat of active picketing was
voiced by John L. Lewis, U. NJ. w.
president, who accused the operators
of Misunderstanding" and engaging
in mutual admiration meetings"
Lewis slashed out wit han ulti-
matum declaring the operators
could take it or leave it" and that
the miners would make no further
concessions

to his corner, wrapped himself in
a white robe, climbed through the
ropes and headed for the dressing
room amid a heavy shower of razz-
berries.
1t was evident some of the cuSto-
mers believed Baer might have
made a more heroic bid. And no
doubt he could have gone along a
little farther. But he was a thor
oughly beaten, thoroughly out
classed man, so it didn't make
much difference. The unfattering
reaction was probably due to the
fact that Baer'S gaudy disdain for
punishment had made his follow
erS believe that when the zero hour
came he would meet it with spec
tacular gallantry.
Only once during the fight did
Baer strike a warming chord. Only
once did he effect posture re-
mindful of the reckless, hilarious
and bizarre fellow who cloWned his
way into the heavyweight champion
D~A~R' LILO woo W11Sll llG went GOWN
for the first time in the third
round.
He had Stung Louis with left
hook, and the Negro had leaped
back at him with that cold fury and
deadly tWo-handed fire that makes
him the most destructive heavy
weight since Dempsey's time. Baer
sank to the floor for what he claims
the first time in his career. His
head was buzzing from those rock
ing rights and lefts. The blood was
dropping off his face and settling
into little sinister red circles in the
canvas.
The crowd was on it's feet, roar
ing, sensing the kill. Baer rested on
one throbbing arm, looked around
at the purplish haze of faces,
smiled grotesquely, waved a reas-
surfing salute, and seemed to say,
What the hell. It's only a prize
fight"

JUDGE ORDERS
BONDING PROBE
KarabeII Launches Quiz of
Alleged Solicitation in
His Court.

Municipal Judge Charles j. Kara
bell today ordered an investigation
of alleged bond solicitation in his
court as the result of the traffic ar
rest of Mrs. Ethel LaBelle, an at
tTactive blond residing at the Ma
rott Hotel.
Mrs. LaBelle was arrested late
yesterday on charges of disobeying
the traffic signal of Traffic Officer
Otto Mas at Delaware and Mary
land-StS.
Officer Mas testified he arrest
ed Mrs. LaBelle when she nearly
ran him down while he was in
front of her car obtaining the IL
cense number. Mrs. LaBelle ex-
planned today her foot slipped from
the brake while the car was in
gear.
Brought to police headquarters
with her daughter, Mrs. LaBelle
told Judge Karabell a bondSman
attempted to grab S25 from her
daughters hand yesterday, saying
Don't put up that cash, Ill sign
the bond"
George Marott, hotel owner, who
had come to Mrs. LaBelle'S aid at
headquarters, said today that he
interceded.
Mrs. LaBelle told Judge Karabell
she did not know the bondSman's
name, but that her daughter would
supply it. Judge Karabell ordered
his court bailiff to investigate and
dismissed the charges against Mrs.
LaBelle

The swish Of the failing arms and

Some 10000 people, the largest

famous Yankee Stadium, waiting
for the answer, breathlessly wonder

There was a delay at the other
end of the wire. But just for a

Just Workout
Baer started the first offensive
drive in the fight with this two

punches, reorganized his composure

From this stage on the rest of the
fight was nothing more than a
routine workout for the young De-

The inevitable came near the close
of the fourth round with the pale
faced playboy of the boulevards
down on one knee, severely beaten,
but completely conscious, taking the
count. He bent over, looking
neither at the young savage nor the
referee, but gazing silently at the
blood-stained canvas.
That 100000 Slice
Perhaps Baer while he knelt there
was meditating on his share of the
million-dollar gate, the end of his
imprisonment in the woods, the en-
Elements of the hot spots. In due
course, the referees arm sliced
through the air for the count of

render succor. Louis lent helping

ceased Baer needed no help. He

workers who, if they weren't tear
ing down the homes of the homeless
would be homeless themselves.
Squatters Are Philosophical
The answer to that paradox does
not appear in the back of either
New Deal or Old Deal books, dill.
gent Searchers report, but the atti.
tude of the dispossesSed squatters is
philosophical.
The city, they say, takes away oul
homes, so the city must give us g
place to build new ones.
And at the very peak of such a
crisis, these SquatterS are expecting
paternalistic gesture. They ex-
pect more land.
Township Relief Available
Thus the squaters, who moved
into Hooverville and Curtisville anc
erected their junk ShantieS at the
request and with the permission OF
no one, have gone even deeper into
the social red. Now they're moi
even squatters, they are dependents
They probably will be cared for, il
they are willing, by the township
trustee.
If they continue their present
mode of living, the home builders
will need a good, fertile junk yard
filled with things for which even
metal scavengers can find no sale
but still sturdy enough to erect a
material gesture against the bowling
winter winds.
The junk yard will have to be
fertile enough to yield something
that can be disguised as a cooking
utensil, a door, bench, a stove.
Whittier Now, Is Cry
Moreover, no formal demand ever
has been made by the citizens" for
protection or aid from the city.
Officially, the city can ignore the
fact that for three years these
people have lived on its property in
homes made of metals ruSted beyond
other use.
Anyway, whatever happens, it's a
few weeks before the snow flies, and
the twin cities will be torn down
by that time. You can't imagine
Hooverville and CurtiSville backing
up vans and moving their house
hold furnishings, can you?
Eventually, they'll be just $50
people without shack or place
to put one.

But there also were reports
some factual, some rumors,
which showed that much
more than negotiation was
afOOt.
From the diplomatic angle, the
situation as outlined in unimpeach-
able quarters is:
London-TenSion IesSened with
Italy but the government will pur-
sue its policy of asking strict adj
herence to the League of Nations
covenant.
Rome-DOor is left open to all
possibilities; public feels there has
been a degree of relaxation in con-
trast to last weeks nervousness.

France continue to seek a peaceful
solution and has not abandoned
hope, but is deeply discouraged by
Benito Mussolinis attitude; hence
French and British leaders continue

ST. LOUIS PINS
LAST DIM HOPE
ON DEAN BOYS
Cardinals Must Win Four of
Five Battles to Take
Pennant.
CUBS ARE CONFIDENT
Boast They'll Grab First
Two Games to CIinCh
National Pennant.
By United Press


NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The last
and positively crucial series of the
1885 baseball campaign opens in ST.
Louis this afternoon with the Ma
tional League pennant at stake.
On the offensive are the first
place Chicago Cubs, who need only
two victories in the next five starts
to win their first league champion
ship since 1882.
On the defensive will be the sec
ond-place st. Louis Cardinals, world
champions last season, who need
three of five to tie for the pennant
and four out of five to win.
The Cardinals, with their backs
to the wall, are expected to call on
the Dean brothers to share the ma
jor pitching burden. Paul Dean is
expected to oppose Lonnie Warneke
in today'S game. Bill Lee probably
will be used by the Cubs tomorrow
against Dizzy Dean, with Larry
French and Charley Root ready fol
relief duty either day.
The Cubs enter the series heavily
favored because:
l. They have been idle for two
days.
2. They are riding the crest of ar
18-game winning streak.
3. Their pitching staff is ready fol
a bitter battle.
The Cubs boast they will capture
the first two games, clinch the pen
nant and extend their streak to 2C
straight. The only thing apparent
ly against them is the fact that they
have won only five starts out of II
against the Cardinals this season.

DuCe Seeking Way Out

lCopvright 1885. nv United Press
ROME, Sept. 25.-Some Italians
believe that Premier Benito Musso-
lini, despite many statements that
he could not possibly compromise
in the Italian Ethiopian dispute,
would be willing today to make a
peaceful settlement if he could find
way to do it without leSsening
the prestige of his regime.
A distinct undercurrent of anx-
lety, almost nervousness. was appar-
ent today = for the first time = in
the firmly disciplined Italian press.
Great Britain's opposition to
tampering with Ethiopia's independ-
ence, Frances desire to remain at
once faithful to the League of Ma
lions and to the new French Italian
alliance, have caused considerable
reflection in astute circles.
A third factor probably is that
Italians are tired of waiting for the
long-deferred climax to the dispute.
A pacific tone was continued in
an official cOmmunique concerning
the reassurances given to Italy by
Sir Eric Drummond, British ambas-
sador, that Britain's fleet concern
tration was not meant as a threat.
The communique said:
Premier MuSsolini received Sir
Eric Drummond, who handed him
the personal message of Sir Samuel
DIE rt-
Sir Samuel, speaking as an old
friend of Italy, declared he was
particularly DESTROYS of eliminating
useless misunderstanding between
the two countries.
III Duce requested the ambassa-
dor to make it known in London
that he appreciated and was graf
flied by the communication of the
British minister"
