"Now. All just get into cOndi-
ton and fight my fight. If All
lost TO Nova Aid start all over
again. No. Ah'm not going to
lose. Yes, Alive seen Nova
fight. Saw him against Conn.
No, Ah'm not worried"
There is more than one indica-
ton that Joe is a little tired of il
all that this fight-a-month bust
ness has had its effect and he'd
like TO forget about the ring and
the title for quite a while Forget
the strict training routine he's
been following faithfully, live a
normal life and take a long trip
with his wife. He said so. That's
what he's planning TO do if the
draft doesn't get him right after
the fight.
"Ah'm going TO Detroit for a
horse show at my farm October
and 5. Then I'm going to give
exhibitions at six army camps
on tour the Hearst people have
planned. Then it's up 10 Uncle
Sam what All do.
"Ah sure will appreciate II II
Ah get a chance to take a long
rest" said Joe wistfully.
Many of the experts who are
edging over 10 the Nova side think
Louis lack of heated interest in
the fight weighs against him They
point, too, to the fact that Louis
had the fight postponed 10 days.
They think il means he was wor-
ried His trouble with Marva, the
probability he may be drafted.
They think all of it may have
him upset.

CONSUMPTION Of U. S.
Citizens Is Chorged

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4-(P-
Senator Gillette (D-Ia) asked
the State Department today to
check reports which he said
charged that the japanese gov
eminent was "conscripting Am
erican citizens of japanese an
cestry in Pacific coast states and
the. territory of Hawaii"
This may be q considerable
threat to our national defense
plans" said the Iowan, a men,
Der Of the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee. my informa-
ton, from reliable sources, in
dicates that Japan, a government
linked with the Axis powers, Is
conscripting men for military
duty right under our noses"
Gillette said that officials of
the Sino-Korean peoples league
had written him from Los An
geles that consulates Of the Jap
anese government on the Pacific
coast and in Hawaii were being
used for the alleged CONSUMPTION.
The league said, he declared,
that Japan had completed 2 CEN
sus Of SO, 800 Jap&@1ese In Hawaii
and now was engaged in con-
scription japanese Americans
between FL and SO years Of age
both in Hawaii and on the West
coast.
The league claimed, he added,
that $4,000 Americans of Jap
anese ancestry already were UNI
dergoing military training, that
$500 had been placed in islands
under japanese mandate within
striking range of Hawaii, and
that $4,000 Of military age were
in Pacific coast states.
Thousands of japanese born
in the continental United States
and Hawaii, he explained, were
regarded as American citizens by
this country and as japanese
nationals by Japan.
There is a serious danger of
Japanese German collaboration
on espionage that deserves
prompt attention." he said. 1T
could be especially serious when
we remember that Pearl Harbor,

aWASHINGTON, Jan. 4-R-
President Roosevelt, it was re-
ported authoritatively today,
will show q balance between tax
revenues and normal expenses"
of the government In his forth
,cor,,ns budget.
The budget, to be submitted to
Congress next week. will be for
the fiscal year beginning next
JuIs 1.
However, the ''normal expens-
cs'-those exclusive Of emery
ency defense costs-will amount
- about $4,000, 900, 900 out Of a
total budget Of approximately
OF 900, 900, 900, It was reported,
indicating q deficit Of nearly
g. 900, 900 900.

Said, will include all non-dexense
costs, expected to total roughly
$1,000, 000. 900, plus $1,000, 000,-
900 or more of defense expen-
ditures, that probably would
have been incurred If there were
no emergency armament pro-
gram.
The total defense budget, 1t
was learned, will be about $10,-
900, 00O,0 900, of which approxi-
mately $4,000, 100000 will be
labelled as emergency costs, to
be financed through both new
taxes and borrowing.
Due to better business and sew
eral new taxes levied last year,
federal revenues were estimated
for the coming fiscal year (be-
ginning next July - at a little
over $8,0O0,O 900, 000-a $l,700,-
900, 900 gain over expectations
for the current year.
This gain was expected to arise
from greater yields on old taxes
plus proceeds Of the 10 per cent
defense supertax on incomes,
higher taxes on many commodi-
ties such as cigarets and gaso-
lire, and q stiff excess profits tax
on corporations.
At the capitol Representative
Cannon (D-Mo)), house appro-
priations committee member,
said he expected that for the
{irst time the budget would in
clude $212,000,000 for parity
payments TO- the farmers That
was the amount which Congress
provided last session.
