BOMBER, RET|NUE
TOLL IN HARMONY
No Dissension, I|I.FeeIing to
Be Found at Louis Camp.
Despite Rumor.
BY PAUL NICHOLSON.

, ENOSHA, Wis, June 1s.-A nea,
Il record crop of rumors have
N besieged Joe Louis and his all.
4 n colored retinue since they
pitched camp on Lake Michigan for
the Brown Bomber's title shot against
James J. Braddock, but they all seem
as fiat as a can of stale beer.
Armed with my correspondence
school detective diploma and a cut
price spyglass, spent several hours
checking every rumor that has reared
its head in the camps OF Braddock
Louis and the promoters in Chicago,
The rumors and apparent facts are
these:
Rumor-The Federal Government.
determined that a Negro never again
shall win the heavyweight title.
okayed the fight with the understand
ing that Louis would lose.
Fact-This seems to be the biggest
pumpkin Of the entire crop. Twice a
Federal Court returned verdicts in
favor OF Braddock SO as to open the
road for the fight Tuesday night. It
is true Co-promoter Joe Foley of Chi
caeo did get long distance telephone
call from Washington, but it was from
Representative Ray Cannon, whose big
sports interest is the freeing of the
major league base ball slaves" Foley
and Co-promoter Mike Jacobs say the
Government has said nothing.
Joe, Trainer Seem Good Pals.
r UMOR-Trainer Jack Blackburn
is cutting Louis pugilistic throat,
confusing his fighter and standing him
up to settle an old score.
Fact-If that is true, Louis and
Blackburn are fine actors. At Louis
camp, they seem more friendly than
ever. Blackburn says the world will
see a better Louis Tuesday night. He
says he only had bad words with Louis
once and that was at Lakewood, N. j..
when Joe refused to lay of his golf
game.
Rumor-Louis will throw the fight
so the promoters can get three big
matches instead OF two-Louis and
Braddock; Braddock and Max
Schmeling, and Louis against the
winner
Fact-It's a good idea, perhaps, but
Louis wants to win the heavyweight
title. Defend it against Schmeling in
q return match. and then retire. The
retirement stuff is just talk. He will
keep on fighting until he gets good
and stiff.
Rumor-Louis. is disturbed because
Of marital troubles
Fact-On Louis word. we have 1t
all is peaceful in the Joe Louis
menage. As proof that all Is well,
Joe calls attention to the fact that
his mother usually stays with Marva
(Mrs. Joe Louis).
Bomber Not Baking.
r UMOR-Louis refuses to take
orders, eats twice as much food
as ever, and does just as he pleases.
Fact-At least while newspaper
men we're around the camp. Joe ac-
cepted all orders with fine department.
The other day, for example, he an
nounced he was going to spar Is
rounds. Blackburn told him he
should not and could not. Louis
boxed six. He eats we'll.
Rumor-Joe's two managers, Julian
Black and John Roxborough, are on
the outs. refusing to talk even when
they count the dough.
Fact-Roxborough says that's
hokum-that he and Black are char
ter members of mutual admiration
society that never will dissolve. They
appear very friendly. and why not?
They've got gold mine.

SPEED, THE GREAT KILLER

During recent years number, Of states nave
adopted the "baSic rule speed lava measure
whereby no fixed maximum highway speed is pre-
scribed. but drivers are required to operate their
vehicles with due care.
Today in many of those states motor vehicle
officials are coming to the view that the basic rule
has failed, and that fixed speed law, rightly en-
forced is necessary to the prevention of accidents
The national organization which studied high
way legislation and first advocated the basic rule,
has now changed its position and urges fixed
speed limits.
So the motorist has failed in his responsibility
under a law which gave the individual wide leeway
in his driving habits.
Speed is still the great highway killer, breeding
more violent deaths than any other driving error.
1t is harsh commentary on drivers that the
bulk of fatal automobile accidents occur on first
class, straight highways, under good weather and
visibility conditions ard involve cars in passable
mechanical condition.
Speed-the insane instinct to "open her UPS
the answer.
1t is apparent that the automobile death and
injury rate will continue to climb until all states
cooperate to modernize their traffic codes in the
light of modern conditions.
Appeals to the motorists instincts of self-preser-
walton and public responsibility, have produced
some results, but much more must be done.
Speeds must be reduced
And the offending driver must be punished I'M
der laws enforced without fear or favoritism.-

FURTHER INVESTIGATION?

While search is being and should be intensihea
for the slayers of George Penn, state hlghway pa
trolman who was shot near Ashevllle last SUNDAY
following identification of occupants Oh the ue"'''
car as Bill Payne and Wash Turner escaped eo"-
victs with longstanding criminal records, lessons
learned from the tragic incident will, the Daily
News presumes, result in intenshcation along
other lines. For only through such ntensiheatioh
will causes be attacked and other crimes be- AVERT
ed
The first point for officaldom to keep in MIND
is that these alleged killers were fugltlves when
they Slew the officer who attempted to stop their
car at weighing station and placed them at bay
when he pursued their speeding machine into
dead-end road 1t is almost impossible to conceive
of any one more desperate, more likely to shoot to
kill than escaped prisoner, who has a long term
hanging over him, who has already thrown caution
to the winds and who has little, if anything, to
lose through further crime.
North Carolina and society in general have paid
a heavy toll to this type of killer So long as es-
capped long-termers remain at large additional
deaths are invited The responsibility thus reVerts
to authorities to intensity their efforts to Keep
these desperadoeS where officers who have in many
instances already risked their lives to apprehend
them. and courts have elaborated to place them
behind the OARS Wnere they iS"V'SN 90 :" ~
cial menace There have been entirely too many
prison escapes in North Carolina; and the mount
ING toll taken as result of these deliveries de-
mands that they be stopped Minor offenders who
break and run are generally plugged; scheming
desperadoes must be combatted by eternal vigil
lance which places more store upon intelligence
than upon shotgun resting on the arm of S30-
odd month guard.
The second point emphasizes the need for closer
surveillance of tourist camps. The two conVcts
now sought as killers had maintained their hide
out or at least had been staying, at such camp
near Asheville Many other escaped prisoners have
been traced to such resorts. There is an obvious
need for placing these camps under closer atten-
ton and regulation involving, perhaps, licensing
system for their operators. What happens at them
now nobody seems to know; but damaging EVIL
denee a-plenty crops out, as in the incident at
point . .....-,.., .
Let the search for Patrolman PENIS slayers be
intensified But intensifcation must go far deeper
if the lessons emphasized by his murder are to
count for NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. News.

STILL 1T PYRAMIDS

The gross public debt of the United States is
in excess of 81 billions and still going strong.
The first seven weeks of the present quarter
show a new deficit of 1881 ,OO0OOO-a third of the
3Sth billion.
That's 100000, 900 more than the deficit for the
same date of the same quarter of 1895.
The biggest of the tiny intellects of poor NOR
tails recos at the effort to comprehend these stag
gering totals
1t is very much as The New York Times sug-
gests, it els like reading that Finsler's comet was
within Sc million miles Of the earth a fortnight
ago before it curved out again into space" ..
But there is relatively simple way by which
the enormity of this mess can be brought to ones
own nose.
1t win help to that end to bear in mind that
the national Indebtedness has doubled within the
past six years.
1t will help more by recalling that the per capita
debt is now 25 times as large as it was the year
prior to the World war.
And it ought to be of immense help to be IN
formed that this debt hangs about the neck OF
every man. woman and child in the United States,
and that the staggering sum necessary to pay in
terest on these borrowings constitutes an annua
lien upon the income of every salared individual
and wage-earner in the United States.-Charlotte

VICE PRESIDENT JACK GAR
NER and Senator Pat Harrison
were having conversation in the
Democratic cloakroom.
AS a senator's secretary passed
he overheard them talking about
the last baseball game. But as
soon as they supposed he had
passed earshot, the conversation
changed.
81 think the President would
be fool to veto this sugar bill,
said Pat.
"You bet!" exclaimed the vice
president.
HENRY CABOT LODGE, the 35-
- year-old senator from Massa-
chuSetts, was the only Republican
member to vote consistently for
the wage-hour bill. Senator jim
Davis of Pennsylvania voted for
passage, but marred his record
from organized labor's standpoint
by voting to recomrnit the bill at
a time when recommittal would
have meant the measures death
for the session. s
Well, of course, said most ae-
counts Of this unusual incident,
that meant that Massachusetts,
mill owners and other manufac-
turerS wanted higher wages paid
in the south so they could COM
pete easier and Henry Cabot was
only following the dictates of in
dustrialiSts in his home state.
The fact is that hardly any New
England manufacturers were in
favor of the wage-hour bill (al-
though the administration had ex-
pected nearly all of them to APP
plaud) and that Lodge has been
receiving a pile of letters from
Massachusetts, industrialists who
call him everything from a soft
head to "bolShevik."

FIoWER.MINDED PEOPLE:

FLOWER-MlNDE PEOPLE:
After witnessing the 18th annual
Flower Show and Art Festival the
average spectator was forced to
the conclusion that this a flower
minded community. Flower shops,
green houses and nurserymen
make livings from the occupation
of handling flowers and shrub
berry. In late years the curb mar
ket has afforded an income from
flowers while growers in former
years had no such outlet. Flow
ers create a dominant note on the
curb market in summer. Cultivat-
ed flowers "just don't happen to
grow" they require lots of attep-
ton and a. love for flowers on the
part of the growers. Our flowers
are a great community asset.
