GRAND EXPLOSION
THREATENS FARR
Joe Expected to Put More
Snap Into Blows Than

YEW YORK. August 21.-Cham-
\ pion Joe Louis can be expected

N pion Joe Louis can be expected
" to make the same smart fight
a he made against Jim Brad
dock when he stacks up against
Tommy Farr Thursday evening. Joe
has no personal quarrel with the
Welshman, But he does value his
world championship and can be ex-
pected to put more snap in his
punches against the challenger than
he did against Braddock.
He knew Braddock could punch and
had to be wary every moment he
faced the Jersey Irishman. He knows
Tommy Farr cannot punch his way
olt OF a subway rush and so can
afford to take chances to get over
his pet left hook. Farr is in for
stormy evening.
Farr has fooled no one with talk
Of working himself into condition by
gradual stages. With the exception
OF Abe Feldman, his spar mates were
poor lot and hardly the type to
bring out the best in him. If what
he showed in training is any criterion
of his true ability. he has no more
business In the ring with Louis than
any OF our second-rate heavies.

COMIC OPERA WAS
GREATLY ENJOYED
1.-THE Secret of Susanna"
and Violin, Piano Re-
cital Presented

A short comic opera 1.-THE Secret
OF Suzanna" by Wolf Ferrari, In
two scenes presented by the Boston
Chamber Opera company preceded
by o program Of violin and piano
numbers was the feature OF the
third In the waterbury Fine Arts
Series sponsored by the Mattatuck
Musical Art sociay last night at the
Women's Club auditorium. The OPP
era was an innovation In this city
and proved a musical and drama
tic treat. It was OF short duration,
slight in theme, but capably
handled by the two singers, Doric
Alviani and Elizabeth Beaman,
proved most entertaining.
Previous to the opera, Miss Celia
Gomberg, yioiinist, played In a
compelling and distinguished way
tho Bach d Minor Partita, fol-
lowed by the first movement Of
the Symphonic ESpagnole by Lnlo.
Her playing showed much feeling,
with great skill and finish as to
technical detail. She played, like
wise, "Variations' by Corelli-
Ter, "Adagio' by Jules Conus. "Gul-
tarre" by Moszkowowski and "Moto
Perpetual by Noyacck. She was
accompanied by Raymond Coon.
who also played two plano numbers
with nice effect. They were Cho-
pins "Nocturnc In r. Sharp Major"
and "6cherzo In B Flat Minor.
Mr.. Coon also played the entire
musical score OF the opera, which
added greatly 10 It's enjoyment.
VOL. Fcrrari's '"The Secret OF
Suzanna", the comic opera sung
last night" has q tuneful score;
tho recitatives were eloquently iie-
gotiated, 80 that the action ran
smoothly along, with tunefviu nnelC-
dies interpreted. Doris as Count,
was an apt jealous husband; his
facial contortions and general act
ing as we'll as his singing showed
thoughtful appreciation Of the
amusing theme. Elizabeth Beaman
also played up remarkably well ~

There are reports through the
world today that England and
France are seeking an alliance
with the United States to use
American soldiers for the protec-
ton of the property of France and
England in the Orient, particular
ly in China.
If this prospect of a new al
lance is on the way, protest
against it and hope everything
will be done to prevent our govern
ment adopting it.
France has much territory in
China. I saw this territory and
it's operations and beheld that it
was really a new France, after
the old order of French statesman
ship-everything for France. moth"

this policy to Americans.

FEW BILLS PASS
The seventy-fifth was home
ward bound after enacting only
a few of the bills on the Presi-
dents program. They postponed
action on farm control, anti
lynching, Government reorganiza-
ton, tax revision and wage-hour
legislation until next January.
The House did pass antilynching
and Government reorganization
bills, while the Senate passed the
wage-hour bill, but final passage
was blocked when the second
branch failed to act.
There was talk of special ses-
sion in November, but little
credence was given it by congress
sional leaders. They believed the
regular committees would have
farm and tax measures ready on
the opening day of the January
session, while the other measures
are all ready for final enactment,
so that a special session therefore
was unnecessary.
Privately, Administration leaders
felt a special session would be
called only if events in the Sino-
japanese conflict should warrant
special action by Congress.

TAX .REvISIONS
TO Be STUDIED,
SAYS DOUGHTON
Ways and Means Group
Will Scan Protests
By WILLIAM s. NEAL


G.N.S). Congress will con-
slider revision Of the revolutionary
1886 corporation undistributed
earnings tax and may wipe out
some sales and nuisance" taxes,
Chairman Doughton CD Of
North Carolina, Of the Ways and
Means Committee, announced to-
day.
Whether more taxes will be
sought or whether the taxpayers
burden may be eaSed depends
largely on the Administration
economy plan of balancing the
budget.
COMPLAINTS RECEIVED
Complaints to Congressman that
the heavy tax on corporations
failing to pay out dividends Grip
pied the "little fellow" and debt
ridden and helps the financially
strong will be the basis Of study
Of the undiStributed earnings tax.
Doughton said:
I'VE will study the whole tax
question through a Subcommit-
tee. If we have a special ses-
sion the subcommittee will meet
at that time, but we expect to
conduct our investigation be-
fore January If there is no Spe.
cial session.
"Our staff will be directed to
study all questions, affecting
taxation during the recess Of
Congress.
PLUG LOOPHOLES
I'VE will consider revision of
the undistributed earnings tax.
think some amendments prob
ably will be found necessary and
desirable. There Is q feeling
that there should be more
cushions to help the weaker
corporations and those in debt.
I'VE also will consider the
question Of repeal or a change
in the capital gains and loss
tax, and will try to stop more
loopholeS in the tax laws.
1T may be possible to repeal
some of the miscellaneous ex-
else and nuisance taxes. It all
depends upon whether we can
come near balancing the budget
under present laws. We hope
that there can be economy
which will make further tax in
creases unnecessary and permit
us to end some taxes"

The Democrats were hopeful,
but by no means confident the
President would use the next four
months to heal the party breach
that started with the Senate's re-
volt against his Supreme Court
bill. If the President chooses,
there may be again one big happy
Democratic family next year when
one-third of the Senate and the
whole membership of the House
must go before the people.
The opinion prevailed though,
the President would raise no finger
to aid some Of the recalcitrantS
who have been taking the lead in
fighting his legislative program.
The President may Just remain in
the background, letting his loyal
associates take the offensive
against the recalcitrants, or he
may step out to lead a purge Of all
New Deal foes.
WHEELER WARNING
One thing was certain. If the
presidential forces undertake a
purge, it will be the signal for a
party battle that will shame those
of the Bryan, Wilson and AL Smith
days.
The proposed victims" of a
Roosevelt purge have given notice
they intend to fight back, not
only against being consigned per-
sonally to political oblivion, but
against those New Deal Democrats
who come up for reelection next
year. One such warning was
given by Senator Wheeler Cd Of
Montana, who announced he
would campaign in Pennsylvania

Keep Out of China,
Lewis Urges y. S.

Hankow and in different places
in China, wherever commerce has
a depot.
My first official service in China
was under the Theodore Roose-
welt administration when I was
permitted to serve in a small way,
seeking to preserve the claims Of
American wharf and dock privi-
leges at Shanghai, and some
smaller CAIN in Yokohama, Japan.
These claims had been granted to
America in the days Of the War
Between the States.
We have many Americans liv.
ing in Asia, many Of whom are
missionaries and much of the
property we call American Is
church property directed by the
missionaries. Other than this, we
have comparatively little property
in China that can be said to be-
long to Americans.
To allow the United States to
make alliance with France or Eng
land to protect their huge prop
erty investments in China, in turn
for an agreement to protect our
very small possessions, is a con-
tract to risk our finances, our
military, and the lives Of our peo-
pie for a consideration so insignif.
icant as to be a sacrifice OF
American interests with no COM
pensation to justify it.
STAKE TOO SMALL
I know it is assumed that
America will make this alliance
with her two former World War
allies-France and England. I an
Swer to say, that with great re-
spect to the former allies and with
the hope they may preserve their
own property and their people
without risk or danger, still I for
bid my American entering into
another alliance with the possible
consequence such as we had to
endure and suffer in the last ALI
ance that led us into the World
War.
I trust America will see how
small her interest in China is COM
pared to the risks that would be
taken were she to enter again in
foreign alliance with foreign coun-
tries which have large possessions
in the Orient. Nothing we could
gain would be of value or worth
compared to the fate that could
befall us.
I trust our good administration
and our eminent officials will
early manifest to any country ap-
preaching us for an alliance that
it is opposed by American senti-
ment as contrary to American in
terest, and that it will be fought
by American patriotism.
