DAVIS CUP CHANGE
OPPOSED BY US.
German Plan for Matches
Every Other Year Is Gain.
ing Elsewhere.
By the Associated Press.

by the Associated Pre$S.
n YEW YORK, Feb. l6.-Although
M support for the idea Of hold
" ing Davis Cup tennis compe-
tition only once every two
years Is likely to be stronger than ever
this year. it will not get tumble from
the United States Lawn Tennis Asso-
ciation.
The suggestion was brought up by
South Africa in 1884 and voted down.
Yesterday the British Lawn Tennis
Association revealed that it would
support q move. inaugurated by Ger
many. to revive the idea at the an
nual meeting Of the Davis Cup ma
tions at London June 80.
Idea Gains Support.
THE German plan had been known
for some time. but it was not ex-
pected to make much headway. Now
South Africa and Australi& are ex-
pected to join forces with Germany
and Britain. thus forming . formidable
bloc to support the proposal.
The American reply likely will be
that the success Of the present system
Is more than enough to offset any OBJ
jections.
Walter Merrill Hall, former U. s.
L. T. A. president and chairman of
the Davis Cup Committee, explained: ::
I'VE take the position that when .
competition has been eminently sue
cessful for 40 or 50 years, the burden
of proof lies upon those who want to
change the rules We ought to be very
sure of our ground before any radical
revisions are made After all. no ma
ton has to challenge for the cup every
year"
Would Dull Ambition.
HALL also said that, with biennial
competition, there would be little
incentive for player to develop his
game. for he could expect to play
only two or three times in the inter-
national contest before passing his
peak.
Arguments on the other side are
that it is too costly to send . team
halfway around the world, Is Australia
must do, or on other long journeys
every year. and that the strain upon
players is too great. y
Germany especially Is expected to
point to the 1s37-38 campaign of its
stars. Baron Gottfried Won Cramm and
Henner Henkel. as showing how hard
Davis Cup player has to work. They
played through the cup preliminaries
to the interzone final, competed in the
French. British, German and United
States championships, then visited
Japan and Australia during the fall
and winter. The larger nations can't
very well avoid such tours If they want
reciprocal visits for their own big tour
naments.

Mystifying Situation.

CTILL, when We watched Louis
~ tumble around yesterday and get
nailed with several smoking rights by
Canadian named Jack Tebo, the man
on the right said: Don't go wrong
on this one. Louis will stop Mann in
side four" It's all very strange, and
you try being boxing expert some
time.
Louis must be lot more dangerous
than he looks right now, or even than
he looked against Tommy Farr last
summer. His explanation of that one
Is, of course, that he caved in two
knuckles on his right hand in an early
round. But that doesn't explain his
xetting punched around by couple
of s20-a-day clay pigeons, like he was
yesterday.
For all his painful experiences with
Max Schmeling and Farr. the 23-year-
old champion still lays himself wide
open when he misses left hook. Teoo
really shook him with a couple OF
right crosses the kind that Mann Is
drilling on. Old Jack Blackburn, Joe S
manager, looked unhappy, but Joe
seemed unworried. Some one told
him Mann never had fought more
than 10 rounds before.
Joe Now Wise-cracker.
THAT so?" said the big Negro.
= well. I'll help him keep his
record clean"
Which indicates the extent to which
Louis has grown up, even if he hadn't
let his new whiskers grow wild for the
last couple of weeks to prove it. He
can wise-crack pretty well now and
his face has somehow lost that bland,
innocent lock. It's harder, more con-
1dent, the face of fighting man.
Joe never has seen Mann fight. All
he knows about Nate is that he gave
Bob Pastor a good licking, along with
some other good young heavyweights,
and that the New Haven boy has a
reputation for forcing q fight.
That's good. I hope he does that"
said Joe. you know, I'm glad to fight
him now, because I guess he is about
next to Smellin' in a way. He's
whipped the young ones and if it
wasn't for Smellin' he would have a
good challenge"

Hamilton, o. (OLNS)-Construction
work, practically at a standstill here
since May /, has been resumed fol-
lowing settlement of dispute between
Local 637, Carpenters Union, and the
Hamilton Building Contractors associ-
alton.
The Union successfully resisted an
attempt of the Contractors association
to reduce the wage scale in existence
prior to May l by 80 cents an hour,
and later compromise" reduction Of
Is cents an hour, when a new contract
was signed calling for the payment Of
the old wage rate of S1.30 per hour.
Work of other construction Unions
was curtailed by the dispute, but
work ceased entirely in most instances
only when employment of non-union
carpenters was attempted by the con-
tractors.
Final negotiations on the new con-
tract were completed by committee
representing the contractors, and one
representing the Union, headed by
Joe Spaulding, business agent.

L. S. AND FRANCE REPORTED
LEADERS IN WAGE ADVANCES

Geneva Wages have ad-
vanced most in the United States and
France, since 1929, according to wage
figures for IA countries published by
the International Labor Organization.
Germany and Japan, with wage
levels still below 1929, were the only
countries which recorded no advance.
The figures published were based on
two standards, nominal or money
wages and real or buying-power
wages, as between 1929 and 1887.
For the United States, based on
hourly rates Of pay, the figures pur-
ported to show a 80 per cent increase
in nominal wages and SO per cent in
crease in real wages.
In France there was 65 per cent
increase in nominal wages and AZ
per cent increase in real wages.

NO TIME TO CUT WAGES
AT OF / SURVEY SAYS

Washington, D. G. GLNS).-The
American Federation of Labor month
ly survey of business gives a much
needed kindergarten lesson to business
on the value of high wages. After re-
citing the terrific unemployment it
says:
Fortunately for business, however,
the wage level has been firmly held,
and there have been almost no wage
cuts except in cases Of actual distress,
or among those few employers who
pretend distress to impose unjustifi
able wage reductions.
Higher Pay "Lifting Force"
"The higher wage level brought
about by increases in the first nine
months of last year has been basic
lifting force and has unquestionably
shortened the period of business re-
cession.
"The fact that workers total in
come in spite Of increased unemploy-
ment, has been only per cent below
last year has made is possible for re-
tail stores, wholesalers and Jobbers to
sell off the large Inventories of goods
they accumulated last year. Business
observers agree that these large in
ventories have been a chief cause OF
the drastic cuts in production and the
decline of business generally"
'Situation Still Critical
The survey closes with the Dlair
warning:
"The situation is still critical anc
it will probably be some time before
the government spending program
lifts industry definitely to higher
levels. UNION RESISTANCE TC
WAGE CUTS is ESPECIALLY I'M
PORTANT; union insistence on wage
increases wherever industry can pay
them is equally vital.
"This is a time for union coopera
tion to save COSTS"
