COTTON LOSES
" EARLY GAINS

NEW YORK, June II GN.S0.
A sporadic recovery from yester-
days decline in cotton prices,
soon petered out and quotations
eased off to show slight losses.
Continued good crop weather
reports and further profit taking
on Saturdays advance were fac
tors in the Indifferent perform
ance of the market.
The trade, Liverpool and the
continent were among the better
purchasers and the South, spot
houses and locals sold.
Towards noon July was quoted
at 11.55 off !, October 1923 off
2, December 1925 off 3, and
May 11.36 off 2 points.

CHICAGO GRAIN
FUTURES DOWN

CHICAGO, June II G.N.SD.
Grains generally favored the
downside in forenoon dealings
here, prices easing after mod
erately higher start.
Responding to moderately
bullish construction placed on
yesterdays Government crop fore
cast, wheat opened unchanged to
bc up. Prices reacted later,
however, when buying waned and
scattered pressure developed.
Corn followed wheat while oats
ruled lower from the start.
Near noon wheat was "a to 12c
off, corn Is to 12c off, oats %
to kc off and rye "a to 1c off.

sonable weather and floods and

ing the NRA decision.
1t seems probable that the
irregular and moderate reaction
in industrial activity will carry
through July. 1t may be q lit
tie deeper and last q little
longer, as a result of the new
turn of events at Washington.
This development, however,
would be more the result Of the
attitude of the President toward
the Supreme Court and the Con.
stitution than anything else. His
unWillingness to accept the Con-
Stitution as it is, and his attempt
to continue unconstitutional DC
tivities, are what creates the I'M
certainty.
Steel production has continued
to sag, though the let down a
week ago was only about of sea-
sonal proportions.
Automobile production dropped
more than seasonably a week ago.
Retail car sales hold well, but pro-
duction has been too great to
hold. And in another month or
so, unless plans are changed, the
introduction of new models will
begin to be talked Of.
The observer should beware
of bulliSh interpretations Of car
loading figures. These have
risen, but that is due to heavy
coal shipments on account OF
the threat of a great strike on
June II. Coal production has
shot up unreaSOnably on that
account.
Under the influence of the
weather conditions and price
uncertainties, retail trade has
been decidedly SpOtty. On the
whole it is about the same in
volume as a year ago.
Wholesale commodity prices re.
bounded last week much as the
stock market did, and averaged
little higher at the end. There
was less fear that the A, A, A,
would be abandoned, thus letting
agricultural prices down. Meats
are higher, and some organized
resistance on the part Of the
housewives has developed.
1t seems fair to anticipate that
unless some inflationary shot" is
administered, m ost commodity
prices will show Sagging tenden-
cies for a while.

Old Time Enthusiasm Animating

Settlers Village the German so- cieties have experienced a revival of the old spirit of congeniality and good fellowship which made them the city's outstanding social organ ixations in. former times. Banded together as one unit, the German American group under the leader ship of Attorney Hummel, appears to be entering q new and even greater era of activity.
 The remainder of the program at Settlers Village consisted of German and American national anthems played by the EZRA band under the direction of Cosmo Ven- ditti. 'Tag' Des Hernn' was sung by the Concordia Singing society under the direction of Andrew H. Neuss, and German folk dances, songs and tumbling acts, as well as parrell bar acts were presented. The folk dances were executed by the children of the Division street playground and the Turner girls under the direction of Katherine Finn. Louis Adams and Frederick F. Weidorn directed the children taking part in the tumbling and parallel exhibitions. The complete program was as follows:

These innovations, he said, had resulted in friendly spirit between the German-Amer- ican group and other Americans and had helped greatly in a suc- cessful fusion in the social life of the New World.

 Attractive House The house itself is one of the most attractive of the European group and has been the object of much attention from the hundreds of tourists and native Waterbur- ians since its dedication. It is a two-storied building, with sharply sloping roof, such as is common in practically every section of Ger many. The cottage is a faithful
 reproduction of its German orig inal, from the little ell projecting out to one side, to the oddly shap- ed front door.
 It's construction was made pos
 sible by consultation with mem- bers of the local groups who were of course familiar with German architecture. This process was fol- lowed in the erection of every cot tage at the village. As a result the houses have been praised as per fect in every detail by natives of

Mrs. Marie Mcdonald Recalls Achievements of Ger. mans for American Independence -Dreher, General
 Chairman of Committee of Arrangements

With the spirit of enthusiastic nationalism that is an outstanding characteristic of the race, German American citizens of Waterbury turned out en masse Sunday after noon, August 25, for the dedicatory exercises of the "Deutches Haus" at Settlers Village. The picnic grounds at the village were used for the first time on that day and more than 1000 persons were pres. ent for the ceremonies.
 An outstanding feature of the exercises was the singing for the first time of the Connecticut Song." written by Andrew H. Neuss, director of the Concordia Singing society and dedicated to Governor Wilbur N. Cross. Words were written by Lucie V. Arnim of Staten Island New York. Since the introduction of the song it has gained a notable popularity.
 The principal address during the exercises was given by Mrs. Marie Mcdonald, a representative of the North American Gymnastic union. Mrs. Mcdonald spoke on "Contri- buttons of the Germans to Amer ica" and in the course of her ad- dress, she spoke in glowing terms of the solid, dependbale character istics of the German which make for good citizenship.
 Other speakers included Mayor Frank Hayes, William M. Harris, Rawson W. Haddon and William Schafrath, head of the modern language department of Syracuse university.
 Mrs. Mcdonald described the coming to Americ. of the first German American colonists, who settled in Germantown, Pa, and the part they played in the French and Indian, and Revolutionary wars.
 German Aid
 Baron von Steuben, Mrs. Me- Donald told her audience, reorgan- ized and clothed the pitiful rem nants of the Colonial forces at Valley Forge. She told how sev- eral German manufacturers con- tributed $100,000 toward the up- keep of the army after Congress had refused further financial SUD- t port.
 The speaker described the as- siptance rendered to America by German immigrants during the war of 1872. She spoke of the thousands of Germans who left their country because they could not establish republic in 1848 and said that this group brought to the nation a new political sense.
 Germans have always played an important part in American poli- tics, Mrs. Mcdonald declared. She gave as an example, the republican convention of 1859 at Chicago. where German delegates demand ed progressive platform with no racial discrimination and said it was a German delegate who nom- mated Abraham Lincoln for the presidency.
 Attorney Albert Hummel acted as master of ceremonies through out the long program. MT. Hum- mol described in detail the history of the German race in Waterbury. Because the race apparently has a natural aptitude for mechanical work and were not only welcomed but sought by local manufacturers. the city has always attracted large numbers of Germans. MT. Hummel told the story of the life of Valentine Bohl, in whose memory the house was dedicated. MT. Bohl came to this city in 1889 and lived here until his recent death.

New York, Sept. 25.-(UP)- Delirious screeching arose from Harlem, the largest negro city in the world, in continuous, ear splitting charivari until dawn. to- day. Thousands of negro men and women celebrated riotously the vic- tory of Joe Louis over Max Baer.

 After his victory over Primo Camera, Louis made a bow to his admirers there, but last night cir cumstances were different.
 He left Yankee stadium with his bride of a few hours. They went to a honeymoon apartment of six rooms where they will live for sev- eral days.

 The bell! Louis kinky hair is unmussed and his face doesn't show a mark, but his shoulders are stippled with the blood of his foe. Bear Is a nasty sight. He bleeds from the nose and mouth. His knees shake, and his face Is set in silly grin. .s He won't last mucff longer. In that last wild furry. Baer hit Louis with everything he had, and the boy from Alabama shook 1t off and walked straight in.
 over in Baer's corner Dempsey works feverishly, using water, am monia, iodine, and strong lang uage. To my right, only a foot away, Louis handlers simply are rubbing his shoulders and belly and talk soothing talk.
 The bell for the second. They spar gently. Bang! bang! bang. Louis nails Max with three rights, each carrying 200 pounds of black muscle and brawn behind it. Daz- ed, Baer falls into crab-like stance
 left arm straight out, chin bur jed behind the ridge of muscle. He makes no effort to throw a punch and Louis, shuffling' in, ever snuff ling in, plays tattoo on his face. In the face, on the head, in the belly, Louis plays his gloved tat too. Baer's face Is a smear of blood. Momentarily Baer comes to life. With round he is face to face with Louis swinging both fists. He lands 6 wicked left hook. The bell, and Louis, against the ropes. drops his hands. Out of his head, Max still swings. Referee Artie Donovan pulls him off and the crowd boos.
 Tho bell for the third. There goes Raer to the floor, knocked crazy By a straight right hand that caugh, him flush on the temple. He's on the floor in front of me, and he squirms there. rubber-leg- ged, bloody, and black-eyed, it'D hard to believe he's the swagger- in; giant know. Louis stands in q neutral corner as the time-kecp- CT tolls off the count. It's up to nine now and Baer gets up pain fully. Louis Is on top of him and Baer falls in a clinch. They're wrestling around. If Louis shakes him off Baer will fall down. He's free now, and Baer staggers. Louis is moving in. There go his fists. A left. Another left. two more lefts. Baer r.ill stands. Another left hook to the jaw and Baer sinks to the floor. The timekeeper Is count ing One-uh, two-uh, three-uh, four uh, flve-uh, six-the bell!
 Dempsey is in the ring and yank- ing the senseless Baer to his cor ner. Can they bring him around? Yeah, he's coming out, and I feel like turning my head. For l know Louis will slaughter him.
 There 1t goes. A right. It landed smack on the jaw and Baer Is sliding to the floor. The count is eight and he rises to ono knee. Nine and ten. He's out.
 It's over and 1t was butchery. By my count. Baer threw ten real punches, and three came after the bel. In the second round. None of them hurt. Either Louis caught them rolling away or he's imperv- ious to n punch. They fought ex- actly II minutes and 50 seconds. and for fully II minutes of that time Louis was hitting Baer.
 There's but one conclusion. Louis is terrific fighter and he might just as well settle down to liking him, For he's going to be around long. long time. (Copyright 1885 by United Press)
