proposition is being considered for

American Ideals Outlined by
EsterIine to City
R0tarianS.

IF it is un-American to deprive
an individual of what he honestly
has earned and saved, it is equally
un-American to deny men equality
Of opportunity" John Walter Ester
lire, president of the Esterline- An
gus Co.. told the Rotary Club yester-
day.
He said patriotic citizens in this
country are divided into two camps,
and battle is brewing.
'One side will fight for preserva-
ton of property rights, and the 9TH
er for the right of equal opportunity,
both guaranteed by the Constitu-
ton. Neither group can win a COM
plete victory over the other without
destroying this document of funda-
mental law"
Mr.. Esterline described in detail
a proflt-sharing system in his own
plant, and cited it as one of the
ways in which industry can avoid
trouble. Under this set-up the in
terest of the employe and employer
lie in the same direction, he added.
Because OF our faulty system of dis
trlbuting profits, Mr.. Esterline as
serted, the nation thus far has fall
len far short of its possibilities for
general prosperity.

CHICAGO, Jan 15-Rated strict
ly off the record of his former
fights, his condition Of the moment
and the ability of his opponent. Joe
Louis figures to end Friday nights
ring proceedings within the space
of three rounds
The proceedings are meeting of
the Detroit punch maker and of
Charles Retzlaff, once touted as a
coming champ, and now just an
other good boxer.
Take a run around the Chicago
fight sector and talk to everybody
you see and you can't find even one
hardy soul willing to give the white
man a chance to beat mis- rival.
Joe Snaps Out of 1t
Louis himself hasn't reached the
predicting moment but when asked
if nell end it within five rounds, he
answers, reckon So"
His managers. short and chunky
Julian Black, the slicker of the COM
bine, and lanky, quiet Johnny Rox-
borough, the strategist, were smiling
today, the first time since Louis be-
gan his current set of rehearsals.
They were worried some last week
and ON Monday when Louis refused
to show more than a dimes worth
of interest in his labors. His timing
was bad. He fooled around with his
stooges and let them reach him time
and again. But in Tuesdays public
workout the bomber caught On. He
displayed the punch that blasted
Camera, ruined Baer and kayoed all
the rest of the lambs fed to him
since he first came into prominence
one short year ago.
Tickets Going Fast
AS matter of fact, Retzlaff is
the only one of the fight show who
has worry. Mike Jacobs, the New
Yorker who is the head man.
checked over the ticket sale and
found it in a healthy state. Some
$4,000 already has been laid on
the line, and he figures that at
least $4,000 will be in the till by
the time Louis and Retzlaff part
the ropes.
The ticket problem is to get rid
of the cheaper cards. 1T don't know
if it's prosperity or what" Jacobs
said today. "But the $3.50 tickets
are going about as fast as we can
lay them on the counter. The $240
and $3.50 numbers aren't moving like
I'd like 'em to. The cheapest ones
usually go out almost as fast as the
tops"
