ested in the study and practice of

my ring?
Ans.-The ring was too large for
your finger, and it seems to me that
you lost the ring in your garden The
ring wasn't stolen, and a careful
search of your garden might posi-
bly, reveal it, but l think it will be
pretty hard to find.
P. L. F.-Does this man go with the
one I am thinking of?

E. o. P. are very good friends, but
you shouldn't allow yourself to be
jealous. you can't get him back or
ever expect to marry him if you let
him know that you are trying to
check up on him and run his business.
L. E.-Have | any living relatives?
Ans: 1t seems to me that you have
two nephews living, whose initials

d. L. G.-Do you think this man is
making me a fair offer?
Ans-The man is undoubtedly try
ing to beat you out of some money.
He doesn't own a farm, and if he did
he wouldn't be trying to sell it so
cheaply. Just tell him that you have

to hurt me?
Ans.-Your husband has suspected
that you were cheating on him for a
long time, SO l would advise you to

me what became Of my money.
Ans.-I believe that the money was
taken from your small pocket book
several days before Christmas, and
it has been spent long before now.

Levinsky Fight Proved
Camera Was Turning
Point i'm Louis Career
By P. L. PRATTIS
(For The Associated Negro
Press)

Chicago, Aug. 15-When Joe
Louis, Detroit heavyweight gift
to the white gentlemen in New
York and Chicago who promote
prize fights, pounded out a
smashing two-minute victory over
klng Levinsky at Cominsky park
last Wednesday evening before
59,l95 rabid, yelling fans, his
toIn tom fists carried a curt, pre-
emptor ymessage to all other
heavyweights, white and black.
"Get out Of my way--I mean
business ~ said the Louis maui
ers for their owner.
Thousands Of charged and livid
words have pranced over the tele-
graph wires designed to describe
the downfall of the Kingfish and
full credit has been giben to the
Brown Bomber, but the after
math Of the battle is contained
In the "Clear the way command
o fthe sledge hammer blows
which cut the head Of the Kra-
kows down.
Before the Levinsky fight,
some reporters, eager for an an
gle OF exploitation, criticized the
Louis training methods. They
said his sparmateS were hams.
This writer thought they were
heroes. One round each they went
with him at each session, one
round if they could last. But most
OF them could not last. For five
dollars, they volunteered to be
knocked unconscious. Do you
think that's an easy job? How
would you like to tell somebody,
Well, | worked hard last week
| was knocked unconscious three
tines?
Louis did his real training fol-
the Levinsky fight in the Yankee
Stadium against Primo Camera
When he had chopped the giant
oak of Lomhardy down, he was
ready then for the mighty King
fish. After that fight, Louis was
through with his tests in the prize
ring.
There be those who will boast
OF their exploit in going the limit
with the Brown Bomber. -Four
men will tell that story to their
grandchildren if the effects OF
the beating they took from Louis
allow them to live that long. They

Eager readers, believe not a

nearly all Of Joe Louis fights.

amateur. He predicted after Joe's

catch up with Max Baer in less
than two years. It took Joe only
one year. The boasts Of the guys

others had been knocked out.
Jack Dempsey had been beaten
by him
Many were they who had stood
up before the Kingfish only to
regret it afterwards. Not a skill
led boxer, he possessed a wild
right, filled with INT. 1t came
from everywhere and was apt to
land anywhere If it landed on his
opponent jaw, the opponent
landed on the floor. Furthermore
this Levinsky was tough and
courageous. Only twice before the
Louis fight had he been knocked
down. Once, Id a fight early in
his career, Ted Ross upset him
and the Kingfish attempted to
run out of the ring. The other
time was last winter when Max
Baer knocked him out in two
rounds.
But against other fighters, Lee
Whisky had caught all they could
, pitch and had done some pitch
In gin his own behalf. He was
the kind of a fighter who did his
best under pressure, who count
cred with his right swings when
he was struck.
What was Joe Louis going to
do against a man like this? Sup
pose Joe did hit him? Would not
the Kingfish retailate in a fury
and smash the Bomber to the can
VASE Few fans in Chicago believ-
ed Levinsky could win against
Louis, but you could not have
picked up any money betting that
the Kingfish would not knock
Louis down. It was in the cards
that Joe was to be set on his pant
les at least once. "What will you
do if he knocks you DOWN." ask
ed Wilfred Smith Of the Chicago
Tribune. fIT get pup" replied
Joe. Even Benny Leonard, who
thinks Joe is an invention in the
fighting game, felt Levinsky
might floor Joe. "But he'll get
up" asserted Leonard.
Well, the Kingfish did not
knock Joe down Joe passed his
examination with a mark Of E
plus.
The Joe Louis who met King
Levinsky was a different Joe
Louis from the II who defeated
Camera, Ramage, Birkie, Peronni
and the flock Of others. He was
a fighter with the same power
and strength and skill, but in the
Camera bout he had passed his
test in psychology and ring craft.
That is why 10000 paid Gus;
toners saw the quickest knock
out in Joe's ring career. Many
fighters inferior to Levinsky had
stayed longer with Joe, but none
Of them had met the Joe Louis
whom the Kingfish faced. The
Hebrew lad can take some CON
ISOLATION out of that thought.
Against LevinSky, Louis was
not only the powerful Bomber
and the master boxer. He added
fury to his work. He was a frenzi-
ed tiger, eager to kill. He cared
not a wot for ring tricks, for the
other man in the ring. The ia
NOUS Levinsky Sunday punch
meant nothing to him. Hadn't he
heard them "build up" all the
other guys he had fought9 Well,
there had been nothing to that
stuff. Too, he knew the crowd
was wondering if he could take
it. He had told someone sharply,
81 don't have to take it. [ dish
it out"
Ma aana, arsnsa. asmm,
The Omaha guide., 1935-08-17

But he would show them. He'd
take all Levinsky had and crush
him like an annoying cockroach
That's just what he did. Only
half the story Of the fight has
been written. 1t has been al
about what Louis did to the King
fish. That is but natural. But
something should be writer
about what the Kingfish did Coz
tried to do to Louis. Louis him
self, after the fight, stated that
Levinsky had stuck his thumb il
rs eye, "but | don't think he
meant it,, added Joe. Don't lei
anybody try to tell you Levinsky
did not want to make a fight OF
it. Don't you believe that stuff
about Leyinsky being afraid. The
writer knows Levinsky, has talk
ed with him, punched him in the
belly. The Kingfish fears no man
He might have been puzzled (his
face showed that but he was not
afraid He intended to turn the
power on Joe at the first oppor-
tunity. And he did. There were
lots of those at the ringside who
seem not to have seen the sock
which Levinsky landed on Joe's
jaw. That is possible. The fight
was so quick, so filled with ac-
ton, that it could babe been miss
cd. But this writer was within ten
feet of the two fighters when the
Levinsky sock landed on Joe's
cheek bone. Joe said Levinsky
just grazed his eye. Other report
erS thought the blow landed on
Joe's neck. 1t didn't. It hit him
flush on the cheek bone. It is a
tribute to JOe's toughness and
durability if he thought Levinsky
had just grazed his eye.

of vanity. Believe this writer
when he tells you that neither
Patsi Peronni nor Matte Brown
could either last more than two
rounds with the Joe Louis of to-
day. Believe him when he tells
you that neither could have last
ed at any time if Joe had been
told to plaster them to the floor

they could not have done it.

tons in the prize ring. He was
young, he was new, he was green

Der how Jack johnson said Car

ayers, all cautioned him. Nobody
wanted to see him through ignor-
ance, become the victim of a trick
that would spoil his career. He
had the strength, the power and
the skill. Why run the risk of
losing a million dollars by some
rash oversight in the ring.
So, for n year, up until the
Camera fight, Joe took his les
sons in ring craft. If an opponent
went down and stayed from the
effect Of one of Joe's blasts, that
was all right, but that was not
the Bomber's set design He
didn't rush himself to finish
them. Remember how he floored
Birkie in the early rounds Of a
fight at Pittsburgh, then coasted
to give the German a boxing les
son? That was a good chance to
learn something from one Of the
veterans. In the final round, he
closed in and polished his man
off.
Remember the Matte Brown
fightY Remember how Brown
stuck his head outside the ropes
to keep Louis from hitting him
Remember how the referee stay
ed in Joe's. way? Remember how
Brown gave the Bomber nothing
but the top Of his head to hit at?
Remember how gentlemanly the
White Knight of the ring was,
stepping back to give Brown a
chance?
And do you remember the two
Ramage fights? The first one
went eight rounds. Ramage, the
master boxer, kept a left .jab In
IJoe's face. Before the first fight,
Louis did not know what Ramage
might do to him. He knew he was
a skillful boxer, but did not know
the weight Of his blows. There
was no sense in him laying him
self open to a chance blow FROM
the coast boxer. In the eighth
round, he caught up with him and
set him on his pants. In Los An
geles, a few weeks later, it took
him only two rounds. He had
learned much from the first fight;
above all, knew that he had moth
ing to fear from Ramage.
But Camera was really ques-
ton Number Ten in Joe's examf-
nation Of himself as a prizefight-
er. Here was a giant hulk Of a
man who had been a champion.
He possessed size, height, reach,
strength and some skill. He was

Unemployment Worse
In Puerto Rico Now

WASHINGTON, r (FP) IT Out Of
a total population of 100000, Puerto
Rico has from $4,000 to 100000 job
less, according to Santiago Iglesias,
resident commissioner for the island,
and unemployment has grown worse
under the New Deal
"The difficulties have become more
acute since the codes" Iglesias told
Federated Press. Out of $4,000
needleworkers about 10000 have been
put out of work, by machine competi-
ton in the United States and by Chi
nese and Philippine competition"
In the sugar industry which employs
some 10000 workers at its height, sew
eral thousands of workers have been
thrown out of a job as a result Of the
Costigan-Jones bill, which has led to
a reduction Of 25000O tons in produc-
ton.
In the Puerto Rico building trades,
on the other hand, there has been some
pickup in employment due to the pub
lie works program. But the coffee
business has been reduced since the
hurricanes Of l928-3l and 1888.
From 90 to 65 per cent of the profits
of Puerto Rican business goes to own
ers and stockholders living outside the
island, according to Iglesias
"Only by the tremendous suffering of
the masses can the island be sustained
as it is" he declared.
AS for remedies, Iglesias calls for
measures to have the benefits of
Puerto Rican industry and trade re-
main in the island and be reinvested
there and for unemployment Of the
workers in factory and field. Govern
ment rehabilitation plans have "helped
a lot" he said but are "only pallia-
tives."
"The only real remedy is a radical
one" Pglesias declared, TO transfer en-
tirely capitalist conditions. But this
cannot be done yet"
The Socialist Party of Puerto Rico,
of which Iglesias is a leader, is the
second party in the island and is part
of a coalition government.
A booklet put out by the Puerto
Rican Department of Agriculture and
Commerce to attract manufacturers
there, declares that wages in Puerto
Rico when compared to those on the
mainland are very low, in many cases
insufficient to adequately support the
workers and their families. even if
steady employment were available.
Strikes are relatively rare, and most of
them have been settled by methods of
arbitration Labor agitation, SO COM
mon in the industrial centers of the
north, is not found in Puerto Rico"
