NEW YORK, June 22-Two men,
both former world boxing champions,
stood in the lobby Of tn Hotel New
Yorker and shook hands. The larger
of the two, who was Max Baer, was
in a hurry to fill a luncheon date
He rushed off The other, short and
fat, was Pete Herman, who once ruled
the bantamweights.
Pete remained to talk about the
fight. Il came from New Orleans to
see it," said Pete. The winner? I
can't see anybody but Schmeling He's
smart and he can hit"
Pete, who paid $50 for a ringside
ticket. sat and puffed on his cigar for
few moments. He was waiting for
Mrs Herman After a while the mis-
sus joined him, taking his arm and
carefully leading him through the
crowded lobby. Pete, you see. has been
totally blind for years. A kid got of
the floor against Herman one night
and his gloves were full Of resin. He
managed to jab Pete in the eyes few
times and-well, it is Mrs. Herman
who will see the fight. She's going
to tell Pete what happens tonight.
Some of the boys who ought to know
say that Schmeling is fighting for
practically nothing. They say he isn't
getting 20 per cent. but 1919 per cent
of the gate. If the fight draws a
million that would mean $125 900 for
Max
Out of this they say Schmeling must
pay a 100000 back debt to some movie
people, and he is supposed to owe
Promoter Mike Jacobs something like
$50 1000. Manager Joe Jacobs 10 per
cent, which would amount to $12,500,
and the taxes will take care of the
rest.
Most people probably would take
chance and jump at the opportunity
to live of Max's real earnings for q
year, at least.
Western Union people say that q
million and a half words will be filed
from the ringside during and imme-
diately after the fight. This includes
the stuff going to Germany at IA cents
per word. Who said talk was cheap?
The tip is out that English also
will be spoken in the press section.

NEW YORK, June 22.-There's
an old song about a red-headed
gal-"She stands up straight and
how she lies" Max Schmeling
stands up straight, too, and you
can draw your own conclusions
when he says: IF I beat Louis,
will come back to defend the
championship in America"
Those are sterling sentiments,
expressed with manly vigor. It
gives your agent a good deal Of
pain, therefore, to report that there
are more than a few hard-boiled
characters in the neighborhood of
cauliflower alley who don't believe
. word of what the upright Prus-
sian says. If Schmeling comes
back, they will expect to see the

Throw out that one" said Joe,

But how did go out? went out

finish me.
II didn't quit, but I'm afraid

think he'll quit to whoever hits
him good one. Well, I'll hit him

Of. and I hope he stands up long
enough to catch 'em ALL"
Stirred by this CORY prospect, the

can take it that he expects to win.

ness of the 15-times- bitten, that
I expect him to win too. But if he

only thing wrong is that Max can't

Max started fighting Coolidge was

KELLEY IS REPAID
FOR GRIT AND TOLL
Vet Who Beats Chisox, 10,
Becomes Starter-SheW %
Pounds in Comeback.
BY BURTON HAWKINS,
Stan Correspondent of The Star,

CHICAGO, June 22-Full-faced,
baldheaded Harry Kelley, who was
plummeting out Of baseball several
days ago, today became regular on
the Nationals mound staff 1t is the
moth-eaten but ever interesting story
OF a guy who made good through
grim determination, courage and
generous dose of tiresome toll.
The 32-year-old Kelley. who re-
sembled the offspring of blimp when
he joined the Mats early in May,
now is in condition and it may mean
something to the club Manager
Bucky Harris, at least. feels definitely
that Kelley's five-hit, TO victory over
the foundering White Sox here yes
terday was no flash in the pan. Time
will reveal the answer to that, but
in the wake Of one Of the finest hunks
of hurting the Mats have received this
season perhaps it is proper TO pause
and praise Kelley.
Kelley. who halls from the metrop-
oils Of Wynne, Ark, and drawls in the
fashion of Bob Burns, came to the
Mats from Philadelphia, branded a
sizable chunk beef OF no use even
to the lowly Athletics And he came
discouraged, for Manager Connie
Mack had told him he was through.
Sheds % Pounds in Comeback.
And the way he was going. Connie
was right" informed Harris. He
couldn't have pitched in the Sally
League because he wasn't In shape.
He reported at training camp out
Of condition and they pitched him
too much in the spring"
When Kelley came to the Mats
Trainer Mike Martin handed him a
diet and recommended long hours Of
labor, cautioned him to follow those
instructions rigidly. Kelly, inclined
to soar by q mere glance at a potato,
has come back and intends to main
tain that keen edge.
When I came to Washington, :"
drawled Harry. Il weighed ZIG pounds
Well, I started working out every
day in q rubber shirt. rubber vest and
alligator skin jacket, chasing Clyde

in the face. Now I'm down to 188- =

great. think can help this ball
club from now on"
Gee, was mighty glad to win for
Bucky for several reasons" continued
Kelley. He gave me a chance and
now think can help him some.
I'm ready to go. relief or regular
anytime he says So"

Only Six Sox Reach Base.

Kelley's comeback was refreshing
Only six Sox reached first base and
only two of those advanced as far as
third, both moving around on infield
outs. Harry scattered those five hits
over as many innings and never was
in danger. granting only one walk.
1t was q day for veterans, what with
35-year-old AL Simmons collecting
three hits, including his seventh home
run Of the season, and driving in four

the stagnation of the economic life of

house is not in order and for many
reasons no effective action has been
taken to restore it to order.
Unimpaired Credit Is Foundation.
Upon the unimpaired credit of the
United States Government rests the

THE credit of the United States
Government definitely affects these

fore becomes our first concern to make

covery depends upon it."
There Is much more that could be
quoted, but the most conspicuous line,
something that may yet be the epitaph
of Mr.. Roosevelt's administration, was
this paragraph from the same ad-
dress:
TOO often in recent history liberal
governments have been wrecked on
the rocks of loose fiscal policy. We
must avoid this danger"
Patriotic citizens will agree with the
resolute and heroic Roosevelt Of 1888

Roosevelt, Not Inept at Bitter Phrases, Makes
Suggestion to Critics.

cate 1t to States, cities and specific
projects. Mr.. Roosevelt in his recent
message did not suggest that the lump
sum method should be continued To
a question asked him at the press
conference on the day following his
message to Congress. he replied that
whether the preparations should be
lump sum" or not was for Congress
to decide. That attitude on Mr.. Roose-
velt's part Is in the new spirit Of tolera-
ton. and of letting each department
OF the Government have the preroga-
tive and weight that our form OF Gov
ernment provides.
Much Of Congress has come to feel
that the lump sum type Of appropria-
ton has serious disadvantages. They
feel 1t Is partial surrender of that
power OF the purse" which Is the
supreme prerogative of Congress. They
feel that to the extent that the
power Of the purse is surrendered to
that extent is the balance of powers
between Congress and President dis
turbed.
~ ~'ANSA oDhSaSIVHs
Besides, much of Congress expresses
specific ground of complaint against
the lump sum method of appropria-
tion as practiced during the past five
years. AS they see it, Congress
appreciates some billions of dollars
for the President to disburse. There
after. an individual Congressman is
pressed by constituents to get part
OF the money for a project in his
district. The Congressman. in order
to get the money, must now 20 to the
President or to one Of the Presidents
subordinates AS it is sometimes
put. Congressman must 60 to the
Executive in spirit OF asking a favor
the favor Of getting small part
OF the money which the whole OF
Congress turned over to the Presi-
dent Much of Congress feels that,
at least tacitly. the Congressman is
put under an obligation to the Presi-
dent an obligation that our form Of
Government did not contemplate.
II Congressman, asking the Presi-
dent or one Of his subordinates for
money for a project in his district,
feels that he is obliged, in gratitude,
to support measures in Congress
which the President desires-in that
situation, it may be that the Con-
eressman's sense of obligation pro-
ceeds only from within himself and
Is unnecessary. Nevertheless, much
Of Congress has come to feel that
the process which makes obligation
possible ought to be ended
There is another complaint. Much
Of Congress feels that some of the
money. appropriated as a lump sum,
is disbursed by some of the Presi-
dents subordinates in such a way
that some of the money is used to
create political pressure, 10 acquire
political advantage. They feel that
in a few cases it is even used to
benefit causes or persons who enter
tain notions Of changing the Ameri-
can form Of society.
