Because the music kept playing,
however, the passengers kept dan
cling and talking, lovers sat chat
ting in delight, and none of them
knew about the danger, until the
vessel reached dock near Amhers-
burg, Canada. 1t took about three
hours to unload, as it was neces-
sary to improvise a small platform,
about two or three feet wide,
which was extended from the
third rail to the shore. 1t was the
only way out, and only two or
more could cross over at one time.
"The baggage man, played an
important part, in sending his men
to help get the passengers ashore
and preserve order. Among
the crew of one hundred, there
were three colored employees on
board. They were Walter Nit
chell, Percy Riley, and myself.
After landing at a dock on the
Canadian side, the passengers had
to walk two miles to the point
where they were taken on board a
rescue ship and returned to De-
troit about $3.50 Friday morning"
The Tashmoo had been charter
ed by a white organization in Ham
tramck, on the night the vessel
was wrecked. Miss Calloway's or
chestra, it is said, was the first
colored musical aggregation ever
hired to play for a white group of
excursionists on the Tashmoo.

SAYS RECENT DEFEAT
WILL MAKE JOE LOUIS
A BETTER FIGHTER

"The defeat just sustained b
Joe Louis will, in my opinion,
make him a still better fighter"
This statement was made by John
Roxborough, the Brown Bonn
ber's" manager, in a personal in
terview with a Tribune represen-
tative Wednesday.
In reference to the current ru-
mors that Louis had been doped
prior to the fight in Yankee Stadi-
UNI in New York City last Friday
night, Mr.. Roxborough declared
that the stories are entirely with
out foundation, being mere propa-
ganda.
In this connection, Manager
Roxborough told the Tribune re-
preventative that just before Joe
went into the ring Friday night,
he was thoroughly examined by
three expert physicians and found
to be in perfect physical condi-
ton. .--
Continuing, Mr.. Roxborough
said: "All champions suffer de-
feats at some time in their career.
1t is natural. Such defeats, how
ever, make them better fighters.
Joe rose in the fistic world so
rapidly, that his recent defeat caus-
ed amazement, but l feel sure this
experience will make him a great
er fighter than before"
In speaking of his defeat, the
Brown Bomber" said:
when Max Schmeling hit me
on the chin in the second round,
the blow carried more power than
the one he knocked me down with
in the fourth. From then on, l was
in a daze."
John Roxborough added in con-
clusion: II knew when Max hit
Joe with that right, in the Sc
cond round, that he had hurt him.

NEW YORK, October % R.-
Lewis w. Douglas, director Of the
budget in the early phase of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's administration, in
statement last night said Il will 60
to the polls to express my opposition
to the New Deal by voting for Mr..
Landon."
The statement was issued through
his secretary from his home at Tilly
Foster, N. Y, where he has been con-
valescing from an operation. He said:
Il have been opposed to the New
Deal for long time. I still am. My
opposition Is not to the purely tenn
porary acts aimed to meet an extraor-
dinary condition Of affairs. 1t Is to
those measures which, purporting to
be directed at emergency and tenn

fact the elements Of permanent and
irrevocable policy"
To Secretary of State Cordell Hull
Douglas paid this tribute: 1.-The deter

Secretary OF State, to reduce trade
barriers constitute one Of the few ele-
ments Of real liberalism in the New
Deal"
But. Douglas charged, the New Deal

MRS.MACY'S ASHES
TO Be SENT HERE
Urn Will Be Committed to
Cathedral at Request
of Miss Keller.

An urn containing the ashes of Mrs.
Anne Sullivan Macy, teacher and life
long companion Of the celebrated
Helen Keller, will be committed to
Washington Cathedral at the request
Of Miss Keller and other friends at
services conducted by Right Rev.
James E. Freeman, Bishop of Wash
ington, in the. Chapel of st. Joseph
of Arimathea at pm. on Novem-
Der 2.
Mrs Macys funeral was held yes
terday at the Park Avenue Presby-
terian Church in New York. She had
devoted her major time for the past
40 years to helping Miss Keller over
come the handicap of blindness.
In letter from Miss Keller received
at the Cathedral today she said "a
nobler tribute could not be paid her
whose love and resourceful mind
brought liberty into my dungeon of
silence" than by having the urn con-
tanning her ashes placed in the Ma
tional Cathedral"
Canon Anson Phelps Stokes, who
represented Bishop Freeman in max
ing arrangements for the interment,
said:
In view of Miss Macy's inspiring
achievement in developing Miss Keller
and relating her understandingly and
effectively to the material as we'll as
the spiritual world about her, it seems
altogether appropriate that her re-
mains should rest in the Cathedral at
the Nations Capital.
Her life was fully as significant, in
Its way, as the lives of President Will
son, Bishop Henry Yates Satterlee, Ad-
miral George Dewey, Ambassador
Henry White and others who, because
of their character and public service,
have been given sepulture here"
Both Mrs. Macy and Miss Keller at
one time lived near the Cathedral and
since had been interested in its build
ing program, worship and work. When
the two women visited the Cathedral
several years ago and the late Edgar
Priest. then organist and choirmaster,
played for them on the organ in Beth
lehem Chapel. Miss Keller said she
could hear" the music by feeling the
vibrations in her finger tips.

CHICAGO, April 25.-Some pros
poets Of moisture relief for crops
Southwest and West, together with
actual scattered showers in Kansas
and Nebraska, led to wheat price
downturns today.
A low barometer in the southwest
cast its shadow over the wheat mar
ket. and values slid down IA cents a
bushel, maximum. One leading un-
official authority reported that al
though large percentage of Kansas,
Nebraska and Oklahoma wheat acre
age Is losing color rapidly, potential
recovery promises to exceed last year
by far if general rains come as early
as year ago, around May 10.
Wheat closed nervous, 1H-1k un-

63ss-'4, oats unchanged to Il lower,
and provisions unchanged to q de-
cline.
Notwithstanding there were no
positive indications of adequate sue
cor for drought regions, a forecast of
further possible showers in Kansas
and Nebraska did much to check buy
ing of wheat futures and induce more
or less selling. Bearish significance
was also attached to the circumstance
that temperatures next week are ex-
pected to be near or below normal.
Furthermore, bears contnded that q
price decline at this time of year has
come to be regarded as normal when
preceded by good advance, and it
was pointed out that the Government
April estimate of domestic Winter
wheat production Is between so and
60 million bushels larger than the
April estimate which last year proved
correct.
Active demand for old-crop wheat
tended to have a rallying influence,
but price upturns failed to hold. 1t
was in vain, at least for the moment,
that some traders interpreted action
Of the barometer southwest as pos
sibly meaning heat rather than mois-

ITALY FILLS NEEDS
FOR RAW MATERIALS
Loss Of Gold May Make It Hard
for Nation to Obtain Supplies
From Abroad in Future.
Ipecial Dispatch to The star.


NEW YORK, April 25.-The sus-
pension Of the publication Of Italy's
foreign trade figures as we'll as the
statements Of the Bank of Italy make
1t difficult TO appraise the effects Of
the economic sanctions imposed
against Italy by the League of Nations.
One obvious fact, according to the
Alexander Hamilton Institute Is that
exports have declined TO a greater
extent than imports.
The fact that imports have held up
comparatively well Is an indication
That Italy has been able to obtain
abroad the basic commodities which
1t needs. The larger imports from
lhe United States, Germany, Austria
and Hungary, in the last two months
OF 1885 are particularly significant.
Ihey show that Italy has not found
1t difficult to obtain oil from the
United States as well as cotton and
other raw materials.
The great effect of sanctions Is that
exports have declined sharplv. therebv
forcing Italy to export large quantities
OF gold and reducing materially its
foreign exchange holdings. 1t is thus
indicated that, if the sanctions now
imposed on Italy should continue for
any considerable length of time and
II ltaly's exports should continue at
the same low level as during the last
four months the time will eventually
come when Italy will find it a difficult
matter to pay for imported mer-
chandise.
