First U. S. Fight

Primo'S first trip to the United
States was arranged through an

named Walter Friedman or, as
Damon Runyon nicknamed him,
Walter (Good-Time Charley
Friedman. See was smart enough
to know that without an Ameri-
can "in," without cutting in an
American manager, he would
not get very far in America.
Cameras first fight in New
York involved him with a lanky
Swede named Big Boy Peterson.
In this fight poor Camera was
hardly able to get out Of his
own way and caused his oppo-
nent the most frightful embar-
rassment through not being
able to strike a bolw that looked
sufficiently hard to enable him
to keep his end Of the bargain,
If there was one. Eventually
Peterson succumbed to a push
and to make assurance doubly
sure, the Swede hit himself on
the Jaw as he went down.
Someone had to hit him.

managed to save up $500 on which
to get married. They started off
with a clean sheet, the pieces OF
furniture all paid for, and both
of them with fair wardrobeS.
The little bride got desperately
sick a few months later and had to
have an operation. AS doctors and
hospitals want cash on the line
everything had to be paid for.
When she came home poor Henry
was flat up against it. His employer
loaned him some money on his
salary without interest and he
managed to bridge his Difficult
ties for the time being. But it
turned out a few months later
that another operation had to be
performed.
Well, you have probably guessed
what happened. Henry went
across the line. He walked under
glowing warming neon sign
which announced:
why worry? Cheerful loans"
The Worst to Come
Up until now, Henry was under
the impression he had had about
all the worry he could take-but
he didn't know that as he stepped
into the spiders web, he was TAX
ing on a load Of worry he would
never shake off in this world.
Of course, he got his loan. on the
strength of his job and on his
bits of furniture-$l25, which he
agreed to pay back in a year,
PLUS the legal rate Of interest
for small loan-makers-Henry'S
type of pitiful small loan-maker. He
didn't know how he was going to
pay it back and he didn't give a
damn-at the time. All he wanted
was to get Mary in good health
and the big, cheerful spider in the
neon-decorated web told him not
to worry.
do the best you can, my boy,
and you'll find we're all right"
The Road to Ruin
The rest is routine the
final tragedy does not occur too
often, though it surely does occur.
Henry, despite his bothers. had
been working hard at the store
and had been promoted to cashier.
He got a small raise-nothing that
would help much in getting him
cut of debt. The date of his first
inStal1ment came along and he
took care of things, though with
difficulty. On the next occasion,
what with Mary back from hos.
pital and the expense of an In
valid, he had to ask for time. He
had to pay for it-through the
nose by new notes and more new
notes.
Then Wife Dies
Then he missed another pay,
ment-and was told that if he did
not get the money his furniture
would be seized and the bed as
good as pulled out from under his
sick wife. He did what I would in
all probability have done or what
you would have done in similar
circumstances: he dipped into his
employers money-and he dipped
some more and some more-until,
inevitably. he was caught.
Henry went to prison-and his
bride died of a combination of
mental and physical ills.

Welfare Report


 Whether or not the recent dismiss sal of 100 WPA workers has resulted in an increased burden upon the welfare department, is expected to be revealed by Welfare Supt. Leo Scully when the board of public well fare convenes for its August regular meeting on Monday night, August IA. Borough officials anticipate that by the time the meeting date ar rives, any of the discharged WPA workers who will appeal to the well fare department for aid because of loss of the income they had gained through working on the WPA for the past 18 months, will enable Supt. Scully to obtain an idea of what the probable burden will be upon his department. Should many of the discharged workers find it necessary to appeal to Supt. Scully for aid, an acute situation for his depart ment may result for without this burden the department is pressed to meet all demands being made this year without exceeding its budget. Only $60,000 was appropriated for the welfare department for the year and of this amount, $17,295.64 was expended during the first three months of the year.
