the chin to slightly daze him but
the great young champ covered up
well. In the next round Louis be-
gan to open up and knocked Tony
down for the count of three. He
also began to work on Galento's
stomach and observers here at the
ring could see Tony vince with
pain every time Louis would con-
meet.
Louis Down in Third
Galento began his holding tao
tics in this round to save himself.
In the third lucky punch caught
Louis off balance and down he went
for a count of two. However, he
continued to punish Galento with
left jabs that cut his face up badly.
Louis Chops Him Down
In the fourth round the stream
lined Louis, 1.-the as a cat, came out
like a modern woodchopper and be-
gan the final strokes in chopping
down the tough fellow from New
Jersey. After two minutes of
pouring murderous lefts and rights
into the face and body of the
heavily breathing fighter the ref
cree, Arthur Donovan, mercifully
stopped the slaughter as the boast
full, but now ineffective, Galento
went to his knees, a bloody pulp
of a man.
GalentO Alibis
Interviewed at the close of the
fight Louis gave Galento credit for
giving him a great fight, praising
him highly. In contrast, Galento
and his manager put up a couple
of strange alibis. Tony said he got
something in his eyes. Joe "Yus-
sci" Jacobs said he got Careless"
dropped his guard. Despite his
knockout Galento is sure shot for
a return match with Louis in the
next year or maybe sooner.

SlemmOns Answers
Jens Christensen

EulVOT: from all reports mr.
Jens Christensen, new alderman
of the Fifth Ward, is considerably
displeased because l did not sup
port him in his recent campaign
for Office.
AS many people who run for
Office Mr.. Christensen does not
stick to the facts when he says /
promised him my personal support.
His use of the word "double cross
er" comes with small grace from
Mr.. Christensen whose career as
an avid and long time seeker for
public Office has been studded with
erous deal, trades and
changes of mind in reference to
candidates.
/ believe that Mr.. Christensen
resents the fact that a Negro has
a right to be against him. l have
no apologies to offer him for being
against him nor do I have any to
offer for supporting Frank d.
Bessessen whose failure to be a
demogogue probably cost him the
election.
No intelligent person would tell
a candidate that he had any
groups votes in his vest pocket,
nor would any intelligent candidate
believe such a story in these en-
ightened days. The colored people
in the Fifth Ward who know me
and my struggle to make good and
serve in this community will not
be misled by Mr.. Christiansen's
righteous indignation at my failure
to support him..
When Mr.. Christensen remark
ed in a meeting Monday night at
the Minnesota-Iowa club that he
had a soap which would "wash
colored mans hand almost white"
he might have given his audience
an inkling of what to expect from
him. When he used southern Negro
dialect to describe conversation
with Bob Marshall, a northern
born and educated Negro, he
also showed an index to his
character and his lack of knOwl-'
edge of the feelings of the colored
citizen.
My telephone conversation with
the gentlemen convinced me that
of the two candidates he was not
the one 1 could afford to support.
His cheap attempt to draw others
including the Spokesman into the
matter will hardly be believed by
those citizens who know the basis
under which that paper makes its
endorsements.
Most candidates know that en-
dorsements in the Spokesman are
not purchasable. Anybody who
reads the paper knows that in
many cases candidates who spend
the least or nothing for advertise
ing space often are endorsed in
preference to candidates who run
big ads if the paper believes them
to be candidates who viii treat the
Negro fair and square.
If / had accepted money or
promises of favors from Mr..
Christensen and then failed to
support him / could understand his
peeve and his loose use Of the word
"double crosserY but Mr.. Christians
sen does not dare say that i ac-
cepted anything from him. In fact
I wouldn't know the gentleman if
I saw him on the street.
All we have to add further Is
that it should be remembered that
Mr.. Christensen is a soap sales
man. We hope he makes a good
alderman and that the Negroes
who supported him win have no
cause to regret it.

The Political Mill
Anti-Third-Term Resolution Ready, but
Proponents Hold Time Not Yet Ripe

thermore, 1t has been evident ever
since the last campaign, when the
President tried the purge" and
failed and when the New Dealers
were defeated in many important
States like Michigan, PENNSYLVANIA,
Ohio and New Jersey, that there will
be no simple draft" of the President
for a third term. If he wants a
third-term nomination, he will have
to fight for it.
Senator Holt of West Virginia,
anti-New Deal Democrat, has an
nounced he will go through with a
third-term resolution. He will so.
But Senator Holt, while a Young
man, nevertheless is not novice In
political battle. He will pick his
time for submitting his resolution.
He wants it adopted by the Senate
for merely to introduce a resolu-
ton and permit it to go by default
or to have it defeated would be to
give the country the plain idea the
majority of the Senate really did
not oppose, but rather favored.

he is holding off, seeking the psv-
Geological moment.
Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin
still is welded strongly to the no.
third-term principle. While he does
not believe that it is necessary at
the time, he undoubtedly will vote
for an anti-third-term resolution if
it is brought up. There are MANY
Democratic Senators also who will
support such resolution, even
though they are saying nothing for
publication about it now.
Appointments Raise More Friction.
The list of New Deal frictions Is
growing almost daily-as the Presi-
dent continues to send in new nomi-
nations to high Federal office. In
each instance, he has picked a rec
ognized New Dealer on his own or he
has picked an appointee who has
been backed by New Dealers. The
latest is William S. Boyle of Nevada,
pet foe of Senator McCarran,
named to be United States attorney
for the district of Nevada. Mr.. Boyle
has been serving under a recess ap-
pointment since last summer. On
Monday, the President sent to the
Senate the nomination of Thomas r.
Amlie of Wisconsin to be a member
Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, in place of Commissioner
Meyer, whose term had expired.
The Democrats in Wisconsin have
already announced their determina-
ton to come to Washington to op-
pose Mr.. Amlie, member of the
Progressive party.
Floyd Roberts, the Presidents ap-
pointee for United States district
Judge for the western district of
Virginia, already has Senators Glass
and Byrd on the rampage. His Sc
lection of Representative T. Alan
Goldsborough of Maryland for a
place on the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia has made no
hit-except with half a dozen DEM
ocrats who are anxious to run for
Goldsborough's place in the House.

Many Democrats in Congress do
not believe that Mr.. Roosevelt will
seek a third term. But when they
hear Secretary Harold L. Ickes and
others high in the administration
insist that the President must be
renominated, and when they read
that Tommy" Corcoran has been

a receptive candidate. Democratic
Senators, under the circumstances,
whether they be for or against the
New Deal, are not anxious to be
compelled to vote on such reso-
luton. Certainly not until they
have to.
In the second place, the nomi-
nations for President will not be
made for almost a year and half.
When Senator Bob La Toilette OF
Wisconsin offered his anti-thlrd
term resolution in 1923. the selection
of delegates to the coming Repub-
lican National Convention was just
around the corner. The then Presi-
dent Calvin Coolidge, although he
had issued a statement the year be-
fore saying II do not choose to run,
was being urged to declare himself
a candidate, or at least to let his
friends work for his denomination
Senator La Toilette says today that
he would not have offered his anti
third term resolution in 1927-be-
cause he considered that too early.
His resolution was adopted Febru-
ary 10, 1923. the campaign year, by
a vote of Sc to 26.
See Gain by Waiting.
There is another reason why the
proponents of the anti-third term
resolution are not hurrying along
with it. They believe that as the
session progresses more and more
Democratic Senators will be "of the
reservation:" that between demands
by the President for legislation not
approved by the more conservative
Democrats, and appointments to
Federal office by the President with
out regard to the wishes of some
of the Democrats. the atmosphere
will be better prepared for an anti
third term resolution.
Also there are several prospective
candidates for the Democratic pres
idential nomination in the Senate
who would be just as glad not to
be compelled to go on record now
as opposing another term for Presi-

be chalked up against them by the
White House they feel sure.
President Roosevelt could ease the
situation nightly by issuing a
statement declaring himself out of
the race. 1t is argued. however, that
by SO doing the President would
lessen his influence with the Demo-
Gratis in Congress and throughout
the country. AS long as he remains
a dark horse" in a White House,
he not only will be more effective as
potential candidate himself. but
also can more readily throw his
influence to another candidate whom
he desires. So Mr.. Roosevelt is not
expected to say anything-beyond
what he said in his Jackson Day
dinner address, when he insisted that
progressive Democrat must be
named for President.
A Real Issue.
The third-term issue is very real
despite the efforts that some of
the Roosevelt New Dealers have
made to minimize it. 1t is not an
issue that can be laughed off. Fur
