GARDEN BOARD
IN DEBATE

NEW YORK, May 8.-Col. John
Fitzpatrick, president of Madison
Square Garden, today admitted
that the board of directors is still
debating the ACCESSIBILITY of leas-
ing the garden for boxing. He
said:
"The directors more or less
agreed on a figure we could &C
cept if offered, but no action
was taken at our meeting yester-
day."
The colonel also took occasion to
deny that Matchmaker James j..
Johnston had been notified that
he would be through at the garden
after June IA, rumor that has
been going the rounds for some
time.

BOSTON. May 8-Statements
from President Emil E. Fuchs, OF
the Braves, and Babe Ruth, slug
ger-second vice president-assistant
manager, today had struck back
at reports of dissension between
Fuchs, Ruth, and Manager Bill
McKechnie.
Judge Fuchs explained he had en-
tered into a private agreement TO
purchase all the Braves stock now
held by Charles F.. Adams, first
vice president, and Bruce Wet
more, and then decried the mo-
tives of anyone trying to promote
dissension between McKechnle
and the Babe or between any other
club officials.
He voiced the prediction that
with the warm weather, the Babe
would disprove claims of some
writer's that his ability and power
in baseball we're thing OF the
o; It. Fuchs also revealed he had
been offered a judgeship, but had
turned it down to remain with
the Braves in the hope of bring
ing them to a pennant-winning
team.
The Babe, in a short statement,
denied reports of dissenSion and
blamed his poor showing on the
weather and the bad cold he has
been suffering and then predicted
that when he recovered:
II will demonstrate that am
far from through in spite Of
some who have been impatient
and unfair in their predictions"

Asks Clean Cut Stand.

The chairman of the National In
dustrial Recovery Board warned that
his answers were not to be construed
as a plea for particular legislative
action by Congress. Richberg asked
the business men to make it clear
whether they were for or against
N. r. AS extension.
II sincerely believe a vast ma
Jority of trade and industry are for
the N. r. A." he said. If you want
an act, say so, and then get together
and try to get good act"
Asked whether a new N. r. A.
would operate smoothly in view of
legal difficulties in the past, Rich
berg stated:
mo broad institutional change in
the operations of the Government has
been carried forward without years
of litigation in the courts, with a
great many adverse decisions.
Richberg said large number of
serious legal difficulties could be met
with new legislation.
He assured the business men that
proposed N. r. A. legislation provided
protection for the little man" and
guarded against monopolies.

There is no greater joy for a
traveller in the desert than to fall I'M
expectedly upon some uncharted
oasis with shady trees and wells Of
fresh waters.
The same feeling is reported by
those who have returned recently
from Europe and have visited the
kingdom of Sweden-the happiest
country on that strife-torn continent.
Sweden has managed, almost mi
raculously, to recapture the prosperity
of the boom years before 1880.
In 1882 the production fell to 10
per cent Of the 1929 level and the
proportion of unemployed workers
rose to 81 per cent.
In 1884 industrial production
reached the peak of the boom year
of 1929. The monthly export auer-
ages rose from 7S,000,000 kroners
in 1882 to 120,000,000 kroners in
1894. Unemployment, Dhile not
conquered, Uas reduced in the
third quarter of 1884 to IS per
cent. In the boom years the num-
Der OF unemployed UdS ~ per
cent OF the total industrial popu-
lation. There is no other nation
in the tUorld that cdn boast OF such
an achievement.
OF course, Sweden keeps severely out
of the political imbroglios in Europe
and follows the slogan that business
Is business" Orders from whatever
country they may come, Germany,
France, or Russia, are filled as long
that there is a satisfactory guarantee
that they will be paid. The govern
ment is a social democratic one; pink,
it was called at first. King Gustav,
q wise old man, has tanned his
Socialists, however. They are proud
now to be called: His Majesty's
Socialist party.

The survey and map" said Ernest
N. Smith, executive vice president Of
the A. A. A., has a two-fold purpose.
First. 1t will serve as a warning to
Washington motorists who are con-
stantly using these roads. Second. it
will be made the basis of the continu-
ing campaign ordered by the advisory
board Of the local motoring organiza-
ton to secure the elimination of these
crossings at the earliest possible
moment.

COPIES Of it will be sent to Mary

air force Of 10000 airplanes within as
short time as possible. The German
factories have capacity Of producing
1000 planes month. It may be that
this output can be improved within
the next few months.
But, while there Is little likelihood
that the Germans will do anything
aggressive at present, it is probable
that they will follow their policy Of
German refrigeration" regardless
of Europe's feeling. There will be
moves for plebiscites in many of the

But that Is not possible. They would
give anything If their country were
placed somewhere in the middle of
the Pacific instead Of being between
Germany and Russia. They are afraid
of the inevitable-that their country

the armies of the great powers.
What makes things worse for, that

Czechoslovakia, which lives in fear

The main point of these military

fundamental principles Of the cove
nant and the other peace instruments,
such as the Kellogg pact, the Locarno

carded. The reason for this Is that
these powers realize that the ma
