ARMSTRONG IN TITLE DEFENSE
 AT CLEVELAND
Meets ManfredO Tonight; Ambers, Krieger on PrO- gram For Christmas Fund

Cleveland, O., Dec. 5-CUP)- Henry Armstrong, welter and light weight champion, risks his 147- pound title against Al Manfredo of California tonight--just 10 days af- ter his defense of the same crown against Ceferino Garcia in New York.
 Armstrong, the bushy- haired little Negro known as INT. Perpetual Mo- tion," still sports several bruises suf- fered in the Garcia fight. But he doesn't agree with those who believe he is taking 8 dangerous risk in meeting the veteran Manfredo so soon after one of his toughest fights.
 That Garcia was tough, I'll ad- mit," Armstrong said today. But I guess 1t was just what I needed to put me on edge. You know, I was idle 8 couple of months before that bout"
 K. o. Ahead
 Armstrong was heavy favorite to win by a knockout in the 15-round fight. Manfredo, who wants the welterweight title as wedding gift for the girl he will soon marry, has a heavy weight advantage. He was supremely confident. In training, Manfredo exhibited an effective left jab and hard right hand swing.
 The show, staged by the Cleveland News as Christmas benefit show, will see another champion and an ex-champion in action. Lou Ambers of Herkimer, N. Y, who lost his lightweight title to Armstrong, meets Frankie Wallace of Cleveland, and Solly Krieger of New York, recog- nized as middleweight king by the Natiopal Boxing association, meets Carmen Earth of Cleveland in a nontitle bout. Both are 10-rounders.

The current naval program

of the navy over a period of sew
eral years. A large number of
minor ships viii be built, plus
several capital ships-heavy men
of-war, mounting l6-inch guns,
and costing scores of millions.
Two unconnected incidents
seem to be responsible for the
program to revitalize and enlarge
the navy. First, the warlike atti-
tude OF Japan and her apparent
disregard of the rights of non-bel-
hgerents (as illustrated by the
sinking of the Panayl, has
brought the State Department to
the view that the United States
must make it apparent to Nippon
that we are. prepared. if neces-
say, to meet force 9th greater
force. Second, the business de-
-pression has made this a perfect
time. in the view Of New Deal Of
fTeials, to inaugurate a naval
building program. A battleship
takes several years TO complete,
and costs from $50, 1000. 900 to $780,
600, 900. It requires q tremendous
amount of labor. skilled, semi
skilled and unskilled. II demands
the products of all the basic in
dustries. from humber TO steel
Thus, a big scale naval expansion
plan is of no small significance in
employing labor. distributing
money throughout the basic in
dustries. and bolstering business
in general for a short period

the United States have the

when il comes to modern naval
tonnage-as against obsolete tom

look all right in war games but
would be next TO useless in actual
combat-Japan is practically as
strong as we are, and some think
she may be strongg Between
1928 and 1888, American naval
construction practically stupped
Those were the years in which
Japan was developing her navy
as rapidly as possible Since
1922. Japan has built or started
zi7 warships with gross weight
of 7i7,O 900 tons. as against l36
ships crossing $4,000 tons for the
U. S.
Further, Il is reliably believed
that Japan (whose government

matters a dark secret Is now
