Liquor LdW Study

Prompt reconsideration by the
board of District Commissioners
on their recent unfavorable re-
port of H. r. 1900 is asked in a
resolution adopted by the Central
Labor Union last Monday night.
H. R. 420O provides that spirits
can be sold locally over "bona-fide
lunch counters" The purpose OF
the proposal is to liberalize regu-
lations on the selling of whiskey
by the drink, which at present is
limited to customers seated at
tables.
The C. L. U. took the stand that
the Commissioners had disap-
proved of the plan without holding
public hearings. Another resolu-
ton urged the appropriation OF
adequate relief funds for the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Charges that the meeting was
packed" by minority element,
brought by several speakers, re-
conferred with Walter P. ChrySler,
president and chairman of the
board.
The "deadline" set in the court
injunction against the strikers eX-
pired at 9 a. m. Wednesday.
Governor Frank Murphy and
the Detroit police collaborated in
bringing to an end a mySteriouSly
called sit-doWn strike in the Frank
and Seder department store, in
the heart of the downtown dis
triCt.
Police Encircle Store
Three hundred policemen were
suddenly thrown around the Frank
and Seder store last night. A sit
down had been in progress about
five hours. Somebody had gone
into the store late in the after
noon. blew whistle and said, It's
strike!" Customers were elected
Simultaneously with the arrival
of the police, Governor Murphy
Unexpectedly appeared at the de-
partment store. So did Mayor
Frank CouzenS and a force of
assistant prosecutors.
Policemen encircled an entire
block. They diverted traffic and
kept the crowds moving. For a
time there was some tension.
Strikers Questioned
Inside the store the authorities
questioned the sit-downers. Some
of them, it was said, indicated
they were compelled against their
desires to strike. Officials of the
store were also intewogated. This
went on for hours, with the
authorities seeking to learn who
called the strike.
At Mayor Couzen's suggestion,
Frank x Martel, president of the
Detroit Federation of Labor, came
to the store and acted as Spokes,
man for the strikers. Martel also
talked with the management
Finally Martel told the strikers to
"go home" that he would negoti
ate with the management on Mon

Jays And Aces Play Twin Bill Today
Cubs Lose to Pirates AS Bees
Top Giants; Brooklyn Wins, rs
Cardinals Win Over Reds
As Warneke Goes the
Entire Route

New York, Aug. 10.-U.P-The
National league leading Chicago
Cubs suffered a double setback to-
day when they lost 6-5 decision
to the Pittsburgh Pirates and the
services of Bill CRip) Collins for
at least month.
The slugging Cub first-basetnan

sliding into home plate in the first
inning and it will be at least four.
or five weeks before he can be
back in the Chicago lineup.
Blanton and Brown combined
to hold the Cubs to seven hits, the
former getting credit for the vic
tory. Al Todd hit a home run in
the third inning with the bases
loaded to give the Pirates their
first four runs, but Billy Herman
clouted one for Chicago in the
seventh with two men on that
sent the Cubs out ahead. Clyde
Shoun who relieved Larry French
in the seventh was charged with
the loss of a result of allowing
four hits singles by Brubaker
and Blanton and Doubles by
Handley and Lloyd Waner-- for
two runs in the eighth.
The Giants failed to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity to gain
on the leaders when they sue
cumbed 6-l to the Boston Bees as
Danny MacFayden held them to
six scattered hits. The Bees got
to Schumacher and Coffman for
10 including Tony Cuccinello's ho-
mer with two aboard in the fifth.
Lonnie Warneke allowed only a
half dozen safetieS as the st. Louis
Cardinals edged the Cincinnati
Reds, 80. The Cards got all of
their runs in the third off Lefty
Grissom. Singles, by Owen, Stu

Louis Training
Hard for Rough
Bout With Farr
Champion Now Working
at Top Speed for the
Welsh Challenger
By JACK CUDDY

Pompton Lakes, N. j., Aug. lO
-U.P Joe Louis, whose march
to the world heavyweight champ
ionship was featured by clean
figh. ing, admitted today that he
may turn ring rowdy for night,
That night is August 26th,
when the Brown Bomber is slat-
ed to make his first title defense
against Tommy Farr, the Welsh
"Billygoat", at Yankee Stadium.
"Dey tells me Mistah Fab is a
rowdy fightah," Louis explained
"Well-if he wants tub fight rules
of da street, ah'll be ready Tor
'em. Nah haid an nah elbows is
JUS as hahd as his'en."
Jolting Joe was stretched out
on the rubbing table as he talk
ed, and trainer Jack Blackburn
was towelling him down after a
six-round workout with three
sparmates. 1t had been a fast,
hard workout at the halfway
mark in Joe's training grind. The
champion scarcely drew a deep
breath during the session. And
Blackburn said, "Chappie'S in fine
condition right now - SO We'll
staht taperin' OIL
Never before had the boxing
writer's seen Louis so rough IN
'.raining-not that he was beat
ing his sparmates badly or try
ing to belt them out. But he bull
ed" them around, punching fur
iously in the clinches and being
very careless with forearms and
elbows.
Trainer Blackburn smiled when
reporters remarked about Joe's
rough tactics. He said the boys
were not mistaken in %heir obser-
vations and maybe Joe'l be a
lot toughah befoah he winds UP
trainin'
Blackburn emphasized that
when Louis fought Bob Pastor at
the Garden, Pastor had used
billygoat tactics throughout the
10 rounds, and that he butted Joe
so often and so hard that the
Bombers nose was out of commits
sion for nearly three months. Joe
is champion now, Blackburn con-
tinued, and his handlers will per-
NIT no more unorthodox tactics
from opponents.
IF dey gets rough with Joe,
We'll JUS tell him tub get rough
too. Amt nobuddy tryin' tub butt
dat crown often Chappie's haid,

The Elizabeth City Jaybirds Will
meet Mike Smiths South Norfolk
Aces this afternoon on Hunsucker
field in a double billed attraction.
Two games will be finished but
only a game and a piece OF an
other game will actually be play
cd. The reason for this odd Situa-
ton is due to the tie game that
ended in the tenth inning on &C
count of darkness here two weeks
ago.
When the teams square of they
will resume the game that ended
in a tie of 3 to 3 at the end OF
the tenth inning and will play
until one of the teams win. Then
when the dust has cleared away
from the extra innings of the tie
game the teams will again take
the field in another full nine-in-
ming game. II the Jays manage
to win both of the games 1t will
place them with a two-to-one
lead in the Wednesday afternoon
series with the South Norfolk
team.
After a fashy start the Jays
have f1oundered around and lost
some few games as the defense
and pitching faltered. Manager
Fearing, in an effort to bolster
up the club and strike a winning
stride, added new strength to the
lineup in order to get them out
of the rut.
His first addition was Murden.
an outfielder and first cousin TO
the Jays pitcher. Murden is a
youngster that roams the field In
a veterans style. He can COW
er plenty of ground and is dan
gerous hitter.
The next addition was H. F..
Forbes, hitting catcher from
Texaco Beach. Forbes started of
playing with the Pirates In the
first part of the season but due
to a misunderstanding with the
management, left the Pirates and
Joined in with the Jays. He has
helped Caddy with the catching
and plays outfield. He Is slated
to catch today's game as Caddy
is apparently in the worst mental
and batting slump of his career.
The third and last addition to
the Jays roost is Freddie Slant.
fast ball pitcher from Louisburg
college. Slant, who is native OF
Norfolk, was also a member of the
Texaco Beach Pirates earlier In
the season. While pitching for the
Bus he lost two games by one run
as his support was wobbly. In his
debut last Sunday with the Jays

URGE CHANGE
IN State ORE
TAKING POLICY
H. Fiterman, Federal Expert
Advocates Tax Revision to
Preserve Ore Industry.

A thorough revision of Minnesota
iron ore taxing policy based on an ex-
tension of the present occupational tax
was recommended to Governor Benson
Friday, following a joint federal-state
survey by Harry Fiterman, federal tax
conSultant
Fiterman's report proposed an adapt
alton of the suggestions made by Roy
G.. Blakely and associates in the 1882
publication, Taxation in Minnesota"
ut is based on an extension of the
principle of the present occupation tax
which is levied on iron ore mined and
is approximately adjusted to the net
value of the ORE" Mr.. Fiterman said.
1.-THE new tax would shift the burden
of taxation from reserved to current
production. There would be an in
creased spread between the tax on low
grade and high grade" he continued.
"At the present rate" the report said,
some Minnesota mines will have eX-
hausted their best ore in 10 years, and
most of it will be gone in 80 to 40
years. The present tax system is con-
tributing to the rapid and waSteful de-
pletion of part of the richest heritage
of the state and the nation" the re-
port added.
In the general report on the subject
the range communities were scored for
expenditures which are eXtravagant
by comparison with other DartS of the
state, because of the unusual separation
of tax spenders from tax payers in
the mining districts"
Under Fiterman's plan, the amount of
tax revenues would be determined by
current needs and the policy of alloca-
ton. Abolition of the present taxes in
favor of a basic occupational levy plan
would be conducive to conservation of
an exhaustible mineral, was asserted in
the report.
High taxes on rich ore will tend to

Nin1rods Prepare for
Opening of Big Game
Season Here Saturday

CAN TAKE ALL DEER
Opening of Superior Game
Refuge to Attract Many
Non-residents.

Hundreds of Minnesota nimrods are
cleaning their trusty rifles, busting off
their duffle bags, digging their red
coats and caps out of moth balls, and
in general getting all set for their
trek into the north woods for the six
short days of deer hunting starting
Saturday.
The season opens November 20 and
continues to and including November
IS, from sunrise to sunset each day, in
twelve northern Minnesota counties,
and parts of four others.
Open counties are Cook, Lake, st.
Louis, Carlton, Pine, Aitkin, Koochich-
ing, Hubbard, Clearwater, Beltrami,
Lake of the Woods, and Roseau.
Those parts of Kittson and Marshall
counties lying east of the Minneapolis,
st. Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroad,
as well as that portion of Cas- County
north of the north border of Crow
Wing county and the northern two tiers
of townships in Kanabec is open terri
tory.
ItaSca county, in the heart of the
deer country, is closed as are all state
game refugees except the Superior Game
refuge, which is open within five miles
of all regularly maintained highways,
county and township roads.
The Superior Game refuge IS open
for five miles on each side of the Ely
Buyck road; the Ely-Finland road
Estate highway No. u; the Fernberg
road; the Gunflint Trail and along any
other regularly maintained state, county
or township roads within or adjacent to
this refuge.
Harry E. SpeakeS, director of game
and fish, stresses the fact that hunters
are themselves responsible for the To-
cation of the boundary lines. Ad-
ditional game wardens have been
placed in the deer country to enforce
hunting regulations.
A new requirement in the regulations
this year is that all deer must be re-
moved from the point where taken and
in two days after the close of the
season.
Neither is there a confusing fawn
regulations this year. The experience
last year proved that this regulation
resulted in many fawns being killed and
left in the woods and mature deer taken
in place of them.
Hunters going to the Superior Game
refuge open territory to hunt, are
warned that all game refuge regula-
tons apply there at all times except
during the six days of the season
within the area specified. Hence guns
must be kept in cases until opening
day, and must be encased Immediately
upon the closing of the season.
Several of the principal cautions for
deer hunters are given. It is unlaw-
full:
To take more than one deer during
