Nine Pounds Overweight, He

BY SPARROW McGANN.

n OMPTON LAKES, N. j., August
- Joe Louis is the same
unhurried, unworried, phleg-
matte person he was before
he became heavyweight champion of
the world. If Joe realizes he is ruler
of the fstic roost. he gives no indi-
cation of it outside the ring. Inside
the ropes with awed spar mates, the
Brown Bomber is something else
again.
Every move indicates he is over the
sense Se-deadening blows he suffered
at the hands of Max Schmeling and
now is out to prove that he is real
champion. He is, in fact, the first
heavyweight champion in history to
place his title in jeopardy so soon
after acquiring it. When he enters
the ring against Tommy Farr, exactly
two months and four days will have
expired since he defeated Jim Brad

tosses continuously and because Ven-

MUST FIGHT OR ACCEPT JAPAN

There is no way to understand Jap
anese military action in China except upon
the theory that Japan intends to dominate
the Far East and to expel, as expediently
as possible, all other nations from that
sphere.
Citizens who try to understand such
statements as are being issued by Japanese
spokesman waste their time unless they
grasp the essential thought that, in Tokyo,
Japan alone has recognized rights in the
Far East and that any people who inter
fere with Japanese supremacy are disturb
ing the peace and deserving punishment.
Take, for example, the recent utter
ance of Toshio Shiratori, former spokes-
man for the japanese Foreign Office: 81
suggest that China abolish all armament
throughout the country and entrust Japan
with the maintenance of peace and or
DER He also hints that Japanese soldiers
will protect the Chinese against the ag-
erosion of foreign powers
The other nations, interested in
Chinese trade, including the United States,
can make up their minds to accept Jap
anese expansion and the consequent eX-
clusion of their nationals from Asiatic COM
merce. They can accept the conquest of
the Far East by the japanese or they can
fight for their rights. There is no half
way ground.
Just what to do is problem that has
Great Britain, as we'll as the United States,
worried. Neither nation wants war with
Japan but both understand the threat in
volved in undisputed japanese supremacy
of the Far East and the loss to be suffered
when Chinese markets go the way of Man
chukuan commerce.
There is as we see it, only one practi-
cal solution of the difficulties that the
white nations face in the Chinese situation.
That is joint action by Great Britain
France, Russia, the United States and les
ser powers. This faces the threat that
Germany and Italy would Immediately
take advantage of the Far Eastern diff
Guilty and precipitate a more serious war
in Europe

SUCKER LIST

Every year American citizens lose
millions of dollars by purchasing fraudu-
lent and worthless stock. Schemers make
a business of Fleeing those who are al
ways trying to get rich quick and believ-
ing the optimistic prospectus written about
any fake enterprise.
The best way to eliminate, the fraudu-
lent promoter is by educating the public
so that he will be unable to find ounces
foolish enough to send him their hard
earned savings in return for promise of
excessive profits.
Sad experience does not keep lot of
these suckers from biting the second time.
This is shown by the fact that there are
people who sell what they call sucker
lists, in which the name of good prospects
are made available for any crook wanting
to dispose of some worthless securities.
Sometimes the deception is cruel, as where
an effort is made to attract those suffering
from disease to purchase some worthless
remedy
A very safe rule for the average citi-
zen to follow is not to purchase except
through reputable brokers or firms. If an
unknown character offers you some scheme
for getting rich by comparatively small
outlay of cash, you have only to think for
a minute to realize that if his proposition
was honest he could secure all the cash
needed very readily. Don't be a sucker
and throw good money away.
