Congress Expected
To Make Further
Wagner ActChanges
EIIender Proposal Seeks
10 Months q Year Of
Freedom From Disputes
B, the Associated Press.

b. the Associated Press.
Revision of Labor Board regula-
tions failed today to satisfy some
critics of the Wagner Act and as a
result further changes appeared
imminent.
The boards decision to permit
employers, like unions, to ask for
collective bargaining elections in
certain instances brought these de-
velopments:
l. Senator Ellender. Democrat, of
Louisiana predicted further revision
! of the boards rules, including a
proposal to assure both employers
and workers at least 10 months of
freedom each year from disputes
between unions.
2. Two House members who de-
clined use of their names said the
House would be asked to authorize
an investigation of the Labor Board,
despite the procedural change, with
q report next January on proposals
for altering the Wagner Act.
A. F. of L. Demands Renewed.
8. The A. F. of L. renewed its de-
mands for changes in the act. JOS
eph A. Padway, its general counsel,
hailed yesterdays revision as IAN
A. F. of L. victory" but said the
Federation wanted all its proposed
amendments written into law.
4. c. I. O. leaders made no formal
comment, but let it be known they
were opposed to the revision
Senator Ellender, an administra-
ton supporter on the Senate Labor
Committee, said that among pro-
posals he had submitted to the
board was the following one which
its members regarded favorably:
That after a union has estab-
lished its right to represent a COM
pany's employees and has obtained
years contract with the company
the board should entertain no petit
tions from a rival union until q
short time before the contract ex-
pired.
This would assure at least 10
months of non-intervention by the
union which lost in the original
election conducted to determine
proper representatives for collec-
tive bargaining" Senator Ellender
said.
Interim Increased.
He predicted that the board also
would announce shortly rules of
evidence which attorneys for many
business men have advocated.
Besides permitting employers to
petition for bargaining elections
when two unions in a plant refuse to
ask certification as bargaining rep
resentatives, the board agreed yes
| terday to:
Increase from five to ten days the
mandatory interim between the
issuance of board complaint and
the holding of hearing.
Require that bona fide unions
which are a party to any contract
held to violate the Wagner Act must

In Ring Coin Gone,
Tries Comeback
Doesn't Seem Possible
To Have Dropped It
All, Says Jimmy
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associa ted Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK. May 10.-Jimmy
Slattery, who the old-timers around
Caulifower Canyon still insist was
the greatest boxer since Jim Cor
bett, sat with me in little mid
town sandwich factory and talked
uncertainty of his plans to do q
comeback
The State Athletic Commission,
after a perfunctory physical exam
ination, just had granted him a
boxing license. Really, 1t meant
only that the commission was will
ing to give the 34-year-old Jimmy
a chance to see If he could get
himself into any kind of shape.
He'll have to pass another and
sitter exam later on before they'll
ever let him enter ring.
Il won't try to fool you," said
the tired-looking ex-flghter. May
be I can get the old legs In shape
again, and maybe I can't. If they
don't come around I'll give it up,
much as I need some money. I'm
not going to let some young squirt
knock my neaQ OH.
Made 100000 In Ring.
He's been working out several
days in local gymnasium, punch
ing the bag and lhnbering up after
more than five years of total in
activity. The once-superb fighting
machine looks all run down. Jim S
legs are flabby and weak, but he
has faint hope they will strengthen
with gradually increased doses Of
roadwork.
Jimmy estimates he made at least
100000 in the ring. Once he re-
ceived $4,000 for fighting Jack
Delaney a Ground main event in
the Garden. He was only 10 then,
and that was the limit they would
let the wonder boy travel.
1T doesn't seem possible for that
much money to disappear" said
Slattery. But it just went. All the
guys in the racket ask me now why I
didn't save some Of it. but they
weren't around talking like that in
The big days. I never heard of a trust
fund like all these kids have nova
days.
If was as clever in those days as
they say was, it must have come
naturally. I never liked the game,
but it was easy money for kid. I
never had to take much punishment.
See-there isn't scar on my face.
I was a pretty rotten fighter along
toward the end, too"
Jimmy Admits Dissipation.
Jimmy was such a great defensive
fighter at the height of his career
that a man like Delaney couldn't
really lay glove on him in their two
bouts. He doesn't deny now that he
dissipated steadily. His handlers
barely managed to get him upright
and into the ring the night he was
knocked out by Dave Shade. Yet
he held the light-heavyweight crown
and was beaten by Tommy Loughran
only after Is thrilling rounds.
THE toughest of them all was that
Harry Greb," Slattery sighed. MY,
the things he could do to you. He
handled those boxing gloves like they
were kid gloves. and it hurt every
time he touched you. He knew more
tricks than all the others put to-
gether."
Jimmy doesn't know anything
about the current crop of fighters
He's been out of touch with the game
completely, working at whatever he
could find and trying to eat regu-
larly.

shad.
Not that shad are such a rare
fish, but seldom do they bite hook.
Most of the time they are netted.
Her haul was made in the Potomac
just below Fletchers while fishing
for cats and perch, using small
perch hooks baited with blood
worms. They also brought in sew
eral nice cats and perch.
Sleeping space and eating
accommodations down in the
Carolinas are at . premium.
Fishing. of course, is the reason.
Blueflsh arrived at Oregon on Mon
day and are being nabbed by TROLL
ers. but oddly enough that isn't
what's causing the excitement The
whole coast is packed and jammed
with Northern anglers in search Of
drums or channel bass.
A Real Paradise.
The big reddish are all along the
coast between the inlet and Hat
teras. A northeaster late last week
ruined things for several days, but
it has been clear and warm since
Sunday. If you don't catch at least
10 big channel bass each day-30
to so pounders-you are poor
fisherman and cursed by the fates.
They travel in large schools of a
thousand or more fish, and the water
turns coppery and red from the re-
Elections of their tough hides.
Most of the schools are be-
low Oregon toward Hatteras,
but before heading too far
South stop off at the inlet and
investigate the blue fishing.
The only thing that can keep
this season from being the best since
1935-and it even may top that
Utopian year-is another forbid the
thought) storm. It is very crucial
time now and northeaster could
send those fish outside and up the
coast. If you are planning a trip
there phone the Weather Bureau
first and if there is a storm in prog
ress or brewing, postpone the ex-
cursion for about five days as it
takes that long to clear.
