 The decision of Promoter Jacobs to send Farr against Louis leaves the stubborn Max Schmeling again outside the championship picture Max was to have met James J Braddock in his first title defense but Louis got the shot. Jacobs at- tempted to line up Maxie for Louis initial championship defense, but Schmeling baked and announced he would meet Farr instead.
 Because of the heavyweight bat tie, the all-star card of champions scheduled for the wek of August B, has ben moved to the week ot September 13.

SAILORS DOWN JUNEAU STARS
 IN SLUG-FEST
Northampton Ball Team Follows Douglas Triumph
 with 9-6 Victory Here

Making fourteen hits good for nine runs, the Navy ball team of the Cruiser Northampton complet- ed a sweep of it's games on Gas tineau Channel by downing the picked Juneau team, 9 to 6, in nine innings yesterday afternoon. The evening before the Northampton squad laid the Douglas Islanders by to count.
 Yesterday afternoons fray saw Red Gray on the mound for the local aggregation, opposing the crack hurler of the sailor squad, Capo. Neither of the two starting hurlers went the route; Gray be- ing hammered from the box in the eighth inning, when the Navy com bined four hits and a walk for the four markers that put the game on ice for them. Foster followed Gray on the hill for Juneau. Capo re- tired in favor of Sailor Outfielder Bestudick in the closing period
 Cruiser Barrage
 Bestudick, with three singles and a walk drove in two runs that led the Northampton barrage. Short stop Lail was right behind him with a triple and a single while Left Fielder Mulick rapped out three singles Catcher Orin Addleman and Jack Schmitz were the most effective Juneau hitters; Schmitz getting credit for double and a single, while Alderman punched out two safe drives
 Juneau went to the fore in the opening frame, collecting two runs on three singles, walk and a Navy error. The Northampton evened the score in the third, but the To- calls jumped back into a one-run lead in the fourth. After tying the count again in the fifth, the Sail ors gained the edge for the first time in the sixth inning, and from then on never relinquished the ad- vantage.
 Fall 2 Runs Short
 The Juneau squad made a nota- ble attempt to get back in the game in the eighth, but fell two runs short of evening the ledger, then the Middies added another tally in the first of the ninth to finish a full three runs in front A walk, fol- lowed by two singles and a double put across the three Juneau mark CTS in the eighth chukker.
 Tex Hawkins toook over the role of pinch-hitter for Juneau in the last inning and stretched his streak of consecutive hits to eight, with single along the right field foul line.
 Joe Snow was robbed of seem ing extra -base clout in the sixth inning when Navy Gardener Haines came up with the ball on an aero batic catch following some fancy sprinting.

JOYCE CALLS RAILS

President of Great Western
FaVors Constructive Acts
by Congress.
By the Associated Press.

President Patrick H. Joyce of the
Chicago, Great Western Railroad told
Senate investigators today the Ma
tion's railways ARE being used as
q foot ball by holding companies and
everybody else"
He asserted that if Congress "is able
to stop it, it will accomplish a job
nobody else ever has"
He testified before the Senate Rail-
road Finance Committee that he was
mot trying to stop" any construc-
tive legislation which might result
from its inquiry, but would BE glad
to see it."
I'VE should have 80 per cent more
people working for the railroads to-
day" he declared.
And why don't we have them?
Because We are crucifed for bad
management whenever we spend a
little money"
He made his statement with con-
siderable heat after Acting Chairman
Truman had remarked:
Il think that wholly owned subsid-
iaries are just as bad for the rail-
ways as holding companies are for
the carriers and the public utilities.
Joyce, an cutSpoken, gruff- voiced
1rishman, agreed that in some cir
cumstances the subsidiaries were "bac
for the railroads" He pleaded fol
Government cooperation in helping
the carriers solve their difficulties.
we are going to help them by
taking them out of high finance, =
Truman replied.

District Of Columbia and are sure
that neither the piece Of cotton rope
tied around Keenes neck or the
length Of water -proofed marlin rope,
which was tied around his waist, came
from the boat
There is no thin marlin rope used
on the District of Columbia, it was
said.
The marlin rope apparently had
been tied to a heavy weight, which
kept Keene's body below the surface.
One end of the rope was frayed, indi-
eating it had broken under the strain
or had been cut by scraping on oyster
shells on the bottom of the bay.
Smiths Island fishermen who re-
moved the marlin rope from the body
cast 1t on the beach and investigators
have been unable to fnd it. The rope
is obtainable only at ship chandler S
or on a boat, and may be one of the
most valuable clues in the case, it was
pointed out.
Brubaker indicated that future de-

keene owned a 32-caliber pistol, but
1t had not been seen for two years.
Blood on Bunk Puzzle.
Most puzzling of the many clues in
the case is the fact blood was found on
the bunk in Keene's room, on the wash
basin, on the handrail below his WIN
dow and on the aft deck guard rail
about 10 feet from the window. Doc
tors say the bullet killed him instantly
The bullet was fired into the middle
of his throat and took an upward
course. He would have had to have
been lying on the bed on his back
for killer to have gotten the gun into
position to fire the fatal shot, it was
pointed out. There were powder

Mrs, Keene said the Womans silver
mesh bag, marked with the initials
F, r. K. and silver tea strainer.
which were found in the brief case,
had belonged to her husbands sister,
Miss Florence Robins Keene, former
music teacher at Mckinley High
School, who died three years ago.
Convinced of Murder.
Convinced that her husband was
murdered, Mrs. Keene said she be-
Geved the killer grabbed every metal
object he could find to stuff in the brief
case. She said she is sure her husband
had packed the mesh bag and tea
straIner in his suit case, which was
found emptied of its contents in his
cabin.
Mr.. Keene adored his sister and
could not bear to part with anything
she left him" Mrs. Keene said. He
always carried the mesh bag in his
suit case on trips.

May 13 when Keene disappeared are
still on duty. But colored deck hands
who are hired by the trip have left the
boat and cannot be found. This is not
unusual, it was explained, sinc~ the
extra deck hands usually leave the boat
at the conclusion of a voyage.
Sergt. Brubaker, who has not vet
decided whether Keene was murdered
or committed suicide, is contemplat-
ing requestioning Mrs. R F. Loper of
Norfolk, who occupied the cabin ad-
Joining that of the dead man. When
Mrs. Loper appeared before an in

stitutes the most deep-reaching ele-
ment in the whole situation.
The strike has two aspects. In one,
it Is an ordinary industrial conflict.
But the injection Of the sit-down
feature raises an additional question
which goes to the heart of govern
ment and the organization Of society.
This latter aspect, considering what
Is going on In the world, is most in
teresting to watch.
Under the existing state Of law and
In the existing American conception
Of society, the sit-down strikers are
trespassers on privately owned prop
erty. Some strike leaders claim the
Michigan law contains a feature which
exempts the sit-down strikers from the
status OF treSpassers. They say that
when q man goes on another's prop
erty in response to invitation by the
latter. the visitor does not become a
trespasser when he remains. What
ever the Michigan law may be, the
common state Of law everywhere, and
the common point Of view Of every
body familiar with American usage,
would undoubtedly regard the sit
down strikers as trespassers.
Ejectment Follows Appeal.
In case Of trespaSs the usual prac-
tice is for the owner to appeal to the
local law officers. In many cases the
appeal is merely to the police, in other
cases to the courts. In some cases
there may be hearing, in others not.
In all cases, assuming the intruder Is
shown to be trespasser in the legal
sense, there Is ejectment by the agen-
cies Of the law. If, after appeal BY
the owner to the law, and after show
ing that there is trespaSs in the legal
sense-if in such a situation the
agencies Of law do not eject the tres
passers the condition Is in effect o
breakdown of the machinery Of law.
To what extent this now exists in
Michigan is not fully clear from the
dispatches. Apparently, General Mo-
tors applied to the courts for what
amounted to a writ Of ejectment. The
writ was issued. At this point the
strike leaders showed that the Judge
issuing the writ was a stockholder in
General Motors. This was unfortu-
nate. Practically every lawyer would
say that the Judge should have re-
