Nation Must ECOnOmlEe

The president and congressional leaders are agreed, now, that the nation must economi2e or pay higher taxes probably both. The message practically assured a new tax bill at the next session of congress. Sem ate Majority Leader Joseph T. Rob- inson heard the presidents message and said: You can't continue spending without the danger of ruinouS imitation. We either have to economize or levy new taxes. There are few tax targets left. You either have to put on a sales tax or carry the income tax to the lowest bracket If Robinson's judgment is correct. income tax payers are in for higher rates because when democrats proposed to MT. Roose- welt before his inauguration that the federal government impose a sales tax, he replied: T am mortified"
 Budget Message. Requests
 Yesterdays budget message pro- posed a $1,5O0000,000 work relief appropriation for the next fiscal year. It estimated revenue this fiscal year at $5,224,009000 and ex- penditures at $7,78l ,000, 900 for net deficit of $2,557, 100000. The gross deficit, including provision for debt retirement will be approximately $3,O00, 100000. For the next fiscal year, beginning July 1, 1887, MT. Roosevelt estimated revenue at $6,- 906, 100000 and expenditures at ST. 324, ,000, 900 for a net deficit of $418,- 100000 and a gross of $819,000, ,000 The figures compeleld the president ot withdraw from his assurance of last January that the next fiscal year budget would be balanced ex- cept for a $40l 100000 debt retire. ment item. But he said he hoped yet to achieve 1t. He avoided all reference to the 1939 fiscal year in which he believed last January that there would be an absolute balance of the budget, including debt retire ment.
 Unforeseen Disaster
 Unforeseen disaster expenditures, the successful lobbying of so-called special or pressure groups and a tendency in congress to vote appro- priations beyond the sums provided in administration budgets have con- tributed to the difficulty of making the budget balance come true. But the imitation scare and real alarm over tagging tax revenue combine today to stiffen both congress and the president for economy.
 Congressional democrats are di- vided by MT. Roosevelt's economy plan, but will go along with him If he sticks closely to it. There is

Miss Gertrude Fernandez, who lives in the build- ing, ran to fire box and sent in an alarm. A few moments later she tel ephoned in a second alarm.

 Bill Is Different
 The bill differed from the reor: ganization commissions recommen- dations in that 1t did not abolish the many separate commissions on which prominent persons through out the state serve without remun- eration.
 Swayne said these commissions would be taken up one by one,' and personally I consider it ridicu- lous to throw out of the window the honorable services given free to the state by many of our prominent citizens, and so. far as am con- cerned it will not be done"
 The bill now goes to the senate which has thus far avoided action on nearly two score reorganization bills approved without dissent by the lower branch.

Not Reuorteti In


 Although plans had been made to speed a number of the Waterbury charter bills, heard yesterday after noon by the committee on cities and boroughs, through both the house and the senate today, no reports had been sent in on them up to early this afternoon. This was due to the fact that the committee stenog- rapher had been unable to prepare the list of bills on which the com mittee had already indicated action. Favorable action is expected on most of them.
 Viaduct Is Sought
 A bill calling for placing Nauga- tuck road in the trunk line system revealed that viaduct was includ- ed in the proposal when brought up for hearing today by the committee on roads, bridges and rivers. The bill is that of Rep. Richard Durkin of Naugatuck. It calls for placing a road which runs from the so-called Whittemore road to Millville in the trunk line system. Part of Rubber avenue would also be included and a viaduct is to be built over the Naugatuck river and the railroad property to afford through route for valley traffic.
 Votes Favorably
 The Woodtick road, at least that part of 1t in the town of Wolcott is to be placed in the trunk line sys- tenn. The House today voted to pass the bill which had been reported in favprably. It was introduced by Rep. Martin J. Whalen of Wolcott and would relieve the town of Vol colt of an annual maintenance cost of $2,500.
 Reimbursement Sought
 Thursday the committee on claims will hear the bill seeking re- iInbursement for "23 Leavenworth Street, Inc" for a portion of an un- used hotel liquor license. Attorney John H. Cassidy of Waterbury was head of the corporation. The bill was introduced by Senator Joseph H. LaWlor.
 AOulOllOW dLoO IlIG o1IllC COiIllIllb- tee will hear the claim of Martin Rubin of Waterbury for $326, repre- Benting a portion of an unused res taurant liquor license.
 Today the claims committee will consider Rep. William o. Hunger lords bill granting Wilbur 0. Hewitt of Watertown $326 for damages to his car. Hewitt was working at the Fairfield County State Hospital when his car was taken by an in- mate of the institution without his permission. It was damaged in an accident.
 The House today voted to restore forfeited rights to William Hennes- sey of Waterbury. Senator Joseph H. Lawlor introduced the bill.

Matchmaker Gray has billed four New York fighters to appear on the card. Julie Kogan, New Ha- ven lightweight, meets Robert Burns; Tommy Ciarlo, Waterbury lightweight, faces Steve Watson; Henry Davis, New Britain bantam weight, opposes Dick Sambo; and Joe Grenier, Waterbury junior well terweight. will probably face Frank Munrie.
 There will be plenty of action in the hookup which will bring Joe Triano, popular Naugatuck mixer, and Emil Etters, of Waterbury, to- gether. Both boys are known slug gers and it would not be at all sur- prising to see one or the other re- turn an early victor by virtue of knockout.
 A hard task is also confronting Jimmy Weed. New Haven middle weight, who has been booked for a setto with Frankie Buff, of Water bury, in a return bout. A few weeks ago, the Brass City Italian dropped close decision to the Irishman, and he will be out to avenge the setback tonight.

and gone out for a kingly mess of pork chops than he Little began the organization of a white hope hunt.
 The first item in his questionnaire concerned the proper clothes for a white hope hunt Were pith hel- mets advisable? Would we need hip boots? A snake kit? The best way I know to answer this is to describe the costume worn by James J Johnston of Madison Square Gar den, when that intrepid explorer was on the trail of white hope. He dragged in some beautiful specimens in his way, and he never wore any fancy rig. His favorite costume was a black derby, pinch backed suit, and pink shirt with tie, handker- chief, socks, and eyes to match. Little also wanted to know just how one could distinguish a white hope. Well, all I can say is that one had better be able to distin- guish them because they certainly won't distinguish themselves. With out getting too specific, a white hope can be spotted from these general characteristics:
 l. A numbering, painful gait similar to that employed by ele- phants whose shoes hurt.
 ?. A slight sag of the lower jaw, and ears set at half mast.
 3. A vocabulary in which the dominant words are "Huh", Club, and "Uh".
 4. A tendency to fall backwards whenever exposed to anything more violent than the impact caused by the switching of light
 5. A fondness for sleeping on canvas.
 The mid-western huntsman also inquired as to the best white hope hunting grounds. That's a difficult question to answer, because the white hope has no set locale. They're everywhere. The explanation for this is that white hopes usually are hungry and will go anywhere for food. White hopes have been bag ged on farms, restaurant kitchens, deep below the earth inn coal mines, in the cabs of train engines, in laundries, in the tops of trees, and wei, almost any place you care to name.
 They are not vicious. Your true white hope is as tame as a hem pecked husband with a hangover, and will generally answer to a gen. tie whistle. Once caught they can be kept with safety anywhere but in a prize ring. Very little equip- rnent is needed to bag white hope. Most of the men who hunt them use a small-bore promise that fires a dum-dum contract. The con. tract stuns them, but doesn't harm the pelt
 It is we'll to stuff them immedi- ately following capture, preferably with steak and potatoes. Avoid mounting them in ring as long as possible, because white hopes have a tendency to lose their heads at this point.

GRANT VS. CLARE HIN FIRST ROUND
 |OF STATE MEET
MedaIist Honor Won By Tony KOsinski With
 Score of n

Springdale, Conn, June 29.-(UP) -Thirty-two golfers teed off today in the opening match play of the 38th annual Connecticut amateur golf championship, with Young Tony Kosinski, Greenfield Hill, hold ing the medal with . sparkling II.
 Several major casualties resulted among excellent players ill the quail flying rounds yesterday over the tough Woodway Country club course. Among them was Dick Chapman, Greenwich, who a month ago went to the quarter final round of the British amateur.
 Chapman ended up with an S3, two strokes over the total needed to qualify.
 Among those who did qualify were F. G. Jarvis, Jr, West Hart ford, with 73, Charley Clare, Race Brook, "A; Frank Ross, Wampanoa2, 76; Dom Soccolli, WetherSfield, 77; Bobby Grant, Wethersfield, 90; and Dow Ahern. 30.
 The luck of the draw placed Grant and Clare against each other in the opening match play today. Both are potential finalists. Kosin- ski is in the same bracket. Dom Soccolli and Frank Ross may meet late today if both win early matches.
 Kosinski, state amateur champ in 1884, could have done better than 7l if he had scored par on the 17th and 18th holes of the qualify ing round. If he had, he would have taken 69. but he went over normal on both holes.

RE WRESTLERS,
 SAND0W TELLS YOUNG HUSK|ES
Millions to Be Made in Game Says Veteran
 Manager

St. Louis, June 29-(UP) Pros perity lies just around the corner of every stout young mans life if he takes to the sport of wrestling, according to Billy Sandow, who has been on tour as a grappling pro- ducer for the past quarter of a cen- tury.
 Sandow, loquacious manager of Everett Marshall, billed as heavy weight wrestling champion of the world, places the catch catch can game at the head of his list of money making sports and produces figures to prove his statement.
 Picking out 10 sports,~ Sandow placed wrestling in the No. l posi- tion. Next in order was boxing, fol- lowed by baseball, golf, tennis, bil- lizards, football, hockey. ice skating and swimming.
 Everything being equal" said he, "it is my advice for boys to become wrestlerS. By everything being equal I mean that each candidate must possess an equal amount of ability in the ten sports mentioned.
 Grappling Against the Field
 "Start 10 boys from scratch in the different fields and in five or ten years I'll wager that the wrestler will make the most money"
 Jimmy Londos, Sandow pointed out, was the top man in wrestling for 20 years. Londos, he said, cleared at least $1, ,OOO, ,OO0 for himself before he retired a year ago.
 ITO mention some of the boys who have never been close to the title" he continued, take Jim Mo- Milan, Ray Steel, George Zaharias, Ernie Dusek and Joe Savoldi. They earn at least $50,000 apiece each year..
 Marshall Heavy Farmer
 Marshall, Sandow estimated, has earned at least $500,000 during 10 years as wrestler, averaging $75,- 900 annually during the last five years. He average not less than $l ,000 for each match.
 Citing other salaries, Sandow pointed out that boxers come into the big money class only when they reach the top of their profession.
 When fighter wins the worlds championship of his class he is fixed for life in a financial way, but how many boxers become cham pions? The others have a hard time getting by because they do not get enough bouts to keep the money rolling in," he said.
 Sandow estimated that Babe Ruth's revenue reached $50O,O00, while other stars in baseball were satisfied to received from $1OOOO to $25, ,00O.
