A Championship Fight

Other than proving that Joe Louis is very much worlds heavyweight boxing champion right now, the much-heralded bout between him and Max Schmeling Wednesday night was over too quickly to make it worth all the elaborate prepar- ations. The two contesants might just as well have been placed in ten-acre lot as New York stadium. Louis was ob- viously and definitely out for "blood"; he got it all right.
 While there isn't any law compelling champion to carry contender for certain length of time, and when this is often done in the case of two badly matched opponents, tremendous howl goes up from the fight-loving populace, still the spectators didn't get their mon- ey's worth from this weeks bout. You can't convince me that men who came all the way from the Pacific Coast thought the encounter was the greatest one they ever had witnessed. You don't see ring classic in two minutes and four seconds of fight, particularly when that fighting is mostly done by one man.
 The Louis-Schmeling fight was an abrupt monologue The radio descrip- tions from ringside, portraying it as the greatest fight this generation ever saw, was ballynoo for the next fight which, we presume will be the superlative just be- yond greatest. If further irony than Louis devastating rights and lefts to Schmel ing's anatomy to confound the many ex- perts was needed then it was this nation wide comment that the lightning-fast de- bacle constituted the greatest battle of the century.

Monument to Jews

Another World War monument has been completed in France. It is at Dou- aumont and pays honor to Jews who died in service with the allied armies The French Naval Minister, who presided at the dedicating ceremonies, pledged France to defend freedom for all races.
 One sometimes wonders whether all the proposed World War monuments will be finished before the next war breaks out, and even whether the memorial bus mess is not being overdone little This particular monument, however seems important and more than justified. Race was no bar to patriotism and sacrifice on the field of battle in the years 1914 to 1918.
 Jews fought for their home land in that conflict, whether the land was France or England or Germany or any other. Ger many today chooses to ignore such serv- ice and to perSecute that group of citi- zens. France reminds us that gratitude is not lost national virtue and that fair ness, freedom and democracy still have a foothold in continental Europe.

Why Not Plenty?

It is with shock that people read, in WPA survey, that our present prob lems are likely to trouble us indefinitely, no matter what we do to alleviate them. After analysing industrial unemploy- ment, business trends, prices and wages, the conclusion is that no single program can eliminate the distress, but we shall need permanent program of insurance, public work and public assistance.
 Under such a program" says the report, unemployment insurance could care for persons who lose their jobs for relatively short periods of time. Persons unemployed for protracted periods would receive incomes through work programs. The most important fact is that unem- ployment relief can no longer be re- garded as temporary problem, to be treated on an emergency basis"
 If this is true, why is it? Certainly there is no lack of natural resources in America, no lack of scientific knowledge of how to turn them to human use, no lack of business ability to direct the pro- cesses of production and distribution, no lack of efficient labor. The fault must lie in us, the people, ourselves. We must be hampered by some basic defects that keep us from functioning properly, from using our ability to master our natural and human resources and make life eas&r and better for all of us
 And these defects must be moral Per- haps our troubles come simply from being

Hard To Beat Now

Senator Augustine Lonergan has been getting considerable encouragement prior to his campaign for second term in the Senate Perhaps that which should give a good indication of what may be ex- pected this fall, when and if the Hartford iegislator is renominated (and we don't see how he can fail to bel, were the re- marks of President James L. McConaughy of Wesleyan University. Republican himself one who will vote against Sena- tor Lonergan this fall, President Nc Conaughy states that the senator will get plenty of Republican support and votes.
 What makes the McConaughy endorse ment more impressive is the fact that he is at present a member of the Republican National Program Committee and is CO., chairman of the New England Commit tee on Fundamentals in this group. He has from time to time been mentioned as potential candidate for various offices on the state ticket. It would be rather ironical now if the republicans were to draft him for the senatorial nomination. Being down on record as approving of the Lonergan record in Congress he would be forced to go rather far afeld to carry on a worthwhile campaign against him.
 We don't imagine that such statements from prominent Republicans, whether they are active politicians or not, sets well with leaders of the party. We can just see the New Guard element protesting that such expressions of opinion do not aid the party to regain it's lost laurelS in this state. They won't, but they should further convince Democrats that what all 3he leaders of the Democratic party said about Senator Lonergan this spring is not mere talk, but is based on the record.

Saving Again

Three savings banks in, Buffalo, N. Y., have united to sponsor newspaper advertising campaign stressing children's savings accounts The ads won such prompt and general approval that the sponsors have agreed to continue the program indefinitely
 During the first thirteen weeks of the campaign the advertising dealt with the wisdom of saving and teaching children to start accounts while they are young. The second series will be more specific, taking up separate ideas and giving concrete illus trationS of what thrift and regular sav- ings may mean to a growing child and to his future.
 These ads were first tried because there seemed to be a need to sell the sav- ings idea again. The bank losses of the winter of 1932-33 led many people to the understandable, but unWise, conclusion, that thrift was futile and spending what you had when you had it was the only sure way to enjoy your money.
 That is an extreme view, and just as harmful.to the individual and to society as it's opposite, the miserly hoarding of money for it's own sake. People are learn- ing again that methodical thrift, saving moderately but regularly in order to have something finer later on "a home, an education, travel - is an essential part of Well-handled personal finance. Sensi- ble saving and sensible spending are both needed, for character as well as for com fort and security.

Today is known as midsummer day. It is also the nativity of St. John the Bap- tist. The heat of the past few days has been indicative of midsummer; an exces- sive heat accompanied by hot sun and humidity, more like the August dog days. Following season of uncertain weather, cool nights and mornings, the heat has proved knockout in many respects. In one way it is good thing since it encour- ages summer pastimes and the buying of light clothing. Midsummer day usually is characterized by tolerably hot weather. Then if ever come the hot June days Typical June days, however, suggest something less sultry than those we have been experiencing; days when daisies in- cline in an assertive breeze, the sky a bright blue, and fleecy white clouds form ing into quaint shapes. Midsummer day, following closely the beginning of the summer season, presages the heat and warmth of the days to come.

Selected Poem
ASSUMING TOUCH

(Charles Malam in the New York Times) More hounds than horses now the teammates stand Four pricked forward, nostrils to the wnd Taking their first scent of the sum- blessed land Fretting against the bit. The brown turf thinned By melting snow, the runnels left by snow Across the Autumn fallow, and the oak Holding dead leaf, these things they almost know From days forgotten when the Winter broke. The furroW over, and the way is known; They settle to the pull of plow and leather. Behind them thoughts forgetting glacial stone The man yields to the pull of April weather Watching down hill an awkward crow that swings Slowly in air to get the feel of wings.

of Congress, during the voting on a resolution to investigate radio monopoly. Ordinarily, the House liberals would have voted for such an investigation, while o. Connor, reactionary, would have voted against it.
 This time, however, he was for the investigation and reported it out of his committee. Instantly the liberal bloc turned against the resolution. Anything that John O'Connor was for, they were against.
 Members went down the aisles passing out the word to vote against O'Connor. Word also went. out that John was trying to get back at the Roosevelt family, that he wanted the in- vestigation to show up the wire pulling of Elliott Roosevelt in the radio industry. This had its effect. The radio investigation was voted down overwhelmingly.
 NOTE - Most likely opponent against John O'Connor next Mo- vember is Mrs. Fillmore Herrick, New York Regional director of the National Labor Relations Board and close friend of Mrs. Roose- welt.

A Book a Day
Pioneers Dairy Yields Yokohama

Strung across the west from Leav- enWorth to Foise, the fur traders cut an epic trial from 1920 to the Civil War, fighting Indians, building forts, piling up fortune in skins, push ing back a whole frontier.
 The record is dim now, but 100 years after these buckskinned pion- eers guided their boats up the muddy Missouri from St. Louis an- other chapter has been uncovered in the dusty files of the United States War Department to shed new light on the fur trade of the west.
 Annie Heloise Abel reconstructs the story in an extremely rare book, "Chardon's Journal at Fort Clark, 1834-1839" (South Dakota Historical Society: $6). Here is the almost incredible day-by-day diary of a French trader who def1ed warning Mandams, Sioux, Gros Ventres, and the ravages of the smallpox epi- demic of 1887 to corral the rich fur business of the Upper Missouri
 For Clark, one of a chain of fur trading posts along the Missouri river owned by the American Fur Company, was located on the west bank of that stream about 60 miles above the present site of Bismarck, N. D. Here Francis A. Chardon stepped from the steamboat Assinni- boine, June IS, 1884. Five days after his arrival his diary drips with Mandam blood and echoes the pitt less privation of the post. Chardon was to know no peace but death thereafter.
 Edited with wealth of notes and appendices, the Journal proves one of the most vital source volumes of this particular era of American pioneer history ever uncovered. Ger tainly there has been nothing more graphic in long time. The dank scent of Chardon's wet beaver skins will stay with you long after you | have turned the last page,-P. G. F.
