other of Hollywoods famous "one-
punch" fights, and today Actor
George Raft was identified simul-

the peacemaker 90 an innocent by
stander.
ME in a fight?" snorted the
husky, slick-haired film star, that's
absurdp'
He was questioned about reports
that he landed a snappy right
punch which laid out an actress
escort early yesterday morning at
La Conga cafe "a film colony night
spot.
One report had it that the other
man left the actress a few minutes
to make phone call and came
back to find her at Rats table.
She was there thanking him for
getting her recent film role. One
thing led to another, there were
words, a snappy punch, and the
other man was stretched out cold.
Another report was Rats. He
said a couple of men were fighting
and he calmly walked between them
and acted the Good Samaritan in
stopping hostilities. That's all there
was to it," he said. His bulky
bodyguard, Mack Gray, added, "Yeh
somebody's trying to get some pub
licity."

President Given Ovation
 The retailers gave him an ovation and frequently interrupted his ad- dress with applause. They are rep resentatives of a consumption indus try and MT. Roosevelt reminded them that 50 cents of every federal job-making dollar crosses their counters and rings the cash regis ter bell.
 He said he did not propase that deficits should become a permanent part of the American system. But he conceded it would be almost im- possible to balance the budget next year.
 To-day" he said, with no danger of surplus foods overhanging the market, just because we have tried to keep consumer purchasing power up to production-the nation is in an excellent position to move for ward into a period of greater pro- duction and greater employment"
 Defending deficits and the national debt, MT. Roosevelt told the retailers that government was investing in order to create a higher volume of business income and, therefore, a bigger net yield for government"
 National income" he said, will be greater tomorrow than it is to- day because government has had the courage to borrow idle capital and put idle labor to work"
 Attacks Conservatives
 The speech was frontal attack on conservative counsellors of econ- omy and modification of New Deal objectives, many of whom are pow erful figures in the Democratic party. He condemned "one school of thought" among his opponents as gamblers with the safety of the na- tion who play "their hunch that if government will just keep its hands of the economic system customers

KING GEORGE HAS
 VISITED BEFORE

Brantford, Ont, May 23-CUP)- When King George VI of England visits the United States next month, 1t will be the second time he has set foot on American soil, according to a Brantford Presbyterian clergy man, the Rev. J. W. Whillians. The minister produced evidence today that his majesty spent several hours on the United States side of the border in 1913 when youth of IT.
 Whillians produced photograph which he took just after the king, then Prince Albert, Duke of York, and a party of British naval cadets had disembarked at Lewiston, N. Y.
 This picture is without doubt the first of the present king taken on American soil," he said. T have every reason to believe that it is the only one in existence today showing his majesty in the land Of the Stars and Stripes"
 Whillians said the king viewed Niagara Falls. the whirlpool and the lower rapids from an open car with other naval cadets. Altogether the king was on American soil some three hours, he said.

will just happen" He warned the other two branches of government Legislative and judicial--that they "do not have the moral right to gamble with the well being of 120,- 100000 Americans"
 He told of receiving a steady par ade of bankers and economists at the White House and of convincing most of them-nine out of ten-that New Deal policies are all right. He explained that arguments of his economy minded callers wilt under specific questioning whether they would cut national defense, national debt interest, war and civil service pension and regular government function charges.
 Budget Balancers Told
 After those, he said, remain about $4,000, ,000,0 of spending for agri- culture, public works, work relief and old age pension. He said he ex- plained to the budget balancers that the farm problem is in a transitional stage looking toward provision of accent prices TOT farm productS.
 T come to the public works item,' MT. Roosevelt continued.
 "He (the unidentified caller) sug- gests that that can be cut 50 per cent.
 "In every case find what is sus- pected. His local Chamber of Com merce, his local newspapers are yell ing their heads off to have those (various local public works) projects built with federal assistance. And I say to him:
 Consistency, thy name is geog- raphy. You believe with the United States Chamber of Commerce that federal spending on public works should cease-except in your own home town"

seem as if there would be no legal way by which the board could func- tion any longer.
 The Culhane Upson omnibus would amend the present city char ter rather than set up new one. Under its terms the strong mayor provisions f the present charter would be further extended with one exception, namely, the board of al- dermen could override veto of the mayor by a majority vote. Now a two thirds vote to override a veto is necessary.
 Other sections of the lengthy bill. as reported in The Democrat last week, provide that the terms of city officials began on the second Monday of October, which is the Monday after election. Two new city departments are also established-budget and pur- chases. A budget director would be named at an annual salary of $6,- 900 8 year as well as a director of purchases at an unnamed salary. Other Provisions
 Under the amended charter pro- visions the corporation counsel is only essentially the city's chief bookkeeper. One city court prose- cutor would be eliminated. The sur plus resource sinking fund would be wiped out. The tax collection esti- mates are limited to a maximum of 92 per cent of the possible revenue. Now 95 per cent maximum is set up.
 The salary of the corporation counsel is increased to $7,500 under the provisions of the amendments and the assistant corporation coun- sel is to receive $4,500. Additional duties are provided for the city clerk.
