HAS ONLY ] FIGHTS


Nettlow, from neighboring River
Rouge, fought only seven fights
last year before meeting Mccoy.
Three of them were with Bob
Montgomery, the Negro who meets
Lew Jenkins shortly, and the best
AL could do was gain a draw in
their first meeting while dropping
two decisions. His last fight be-
fore this one was again with
Montgomery, in February, and
again he lost the decision.
SO last night was the payoff. be-
cause Promoter Mike Jacobs had
promised the winner bout with
Zivic for the title. II was AIS big
chance after five years as profess
Sional, and his manager. Al WE'LL,
had him in the pink of condition.
Nettlow rushed out of the cor
ner at the opening gong and
landed the first blow of the fight.
but Mccoy rode the punch and
began the feinting tactics that re-
veal champion. For Mccoy was
also in the pink of condition.

Defeat is no darker. victory no

ring.
But out of the darkness Of AL
Nettlow's defeat last night at
Olympia shines the brightness OF
Young Kid McCoy's decisive VIC
tory and with it the jeweled glim~

weight crown.
For The Kid, who is Adam
Pianga to his home town cronies
in Dearborn. dispelled any doubt
that he is qualified for bout with
Fritzie Civic, the champion, with
a masterful performance that re-
suited in a unanimous decision by
Referee Slim McClelland and
Judges Joe Lenahan and Frank
Fisher.
HAS SITUATION IN HAND
From the first belle 10 the last
when Nettlow, his left eye swollen
shut. still kept coming in, Mccoy
had the situation well in hand. A
skillful boxer and lightning
puncher, it was his fight from first
to last.
McClelland was the most gener-
Gus, giving Nettlow four rounds.
Fisher gave him only the last.
calling two even, and Lenahan
called five even and gave the rest
TO Mccoy.
But the cold figures give little
indication of the progress of the
fight, a fight that was to do or die
for Nettlow, who had lost the de-
cision to Mccoy here last Decem-
/ Der. Briefly, here is the picture:

crop of hay and the balance
weeds but pillow up a part of it
and plant soybeans. They can be
planted after late corn planting
time and still yield a couple Of
tons or more of high quality feed
per acre.
Good corn silage is another
source of high quality, low cost
winter feed in that a large
amounts of it can be raised from
a small acreage. Ashe county far
mers that now have silos are pro-
ducing from ten to twenty tons
of silage from one acre. If you
can not afford a permanent one
at this time then build one of the
low cost temporary types. If en-
ough farmers in a community
will build silos we will make ar
rangements to place a silo filler
in that community. Good pastures
in the summer and plenty of leg
ume hay and silage for winter
feed will cut the cost of produc-
ton on 100 lbs of beef or milk.
During the last few months sew
eral high bred beef type cattle

have been shipped into the coun-
ty from Kansas for breeding pur-
poses which should make mar
ked improvement our beef herds.
There is need for many more
such animals.
In the last last two months
three pure bred Guernsey bulls
have been placed in different Sec
tons Of the county. These bulls
have outstanding records of milk
production behind them. For ms
lance the bull placed at Ed Roe's
place at Helton his dam produced
over 10000 lbs of milk with her
first calf; so this bull should help
to increase the production of his
offspring in that community.
These are steps forward in the
development Of both types of cat
tie which is as should be. We can
never expect to make much pro-
grees with live stock as long as
we continue to cross breed our
animals. When we cross breed our
animals we are trying to break
down the laws of nature that
were established at the beginning

Ashe County's Defense Line
Must Include Dairy Farming

where will they go? The majority
of them will go back to the soil
which is the backbone of all pro-
gress of every nation. Trade areas
will be changed. Old established
world markets are gone, new
ones taking their place. Commo-
dity prices have hit new lows.
Then will be the time that COM
munities that have taken advan-
tage of the possibilities that they
now have will find themselves in
a much more favorable position
to meet that period of readjust-
ment.
Ashe county derives its entire
living from agriculture, therefore
the need of a we'll balanced farm
program. It is true that we have
been more than blessed by ma
ture in many natural resources
but we must conserve them If
they are TO carry us through IlIe
trying times ahead.
The government is spending
vast sums of money to help the
farmers conserve their soil. The
people of Ashe county this week
have the opportunity to decide
whether or not they want a soil
conservation district set up in
this country. We hope every farm
er will give this some serious
thought and help to get this much
needed program set up by cast
ing his ballot for it at his nearest
voting booth. The lime and phos-
phate that is now being paid out
as soil payments will help us to
increase the feeding value and
extend the number of days that
we will have good pasture or the
tonnage of hay that we may cut
per acre but we need to 60 farther
than that. What about our winter
feed?
This is a natural livestock
but we have to sell our
beef and dairy products in COM

states that are more favorably To-
Gated for the production of win

with them if we are going to add

age charges, etc. to the feed we

The statement was in reply to one &sned yesterday by MT. Blansfie!d and carries on a controversy which
 Mas begun when the senator pro- nosed to the state legislative coun- o1l that laws be enacted forcing
 bor unions to incorporate and nlake public their financial af- Airs.
 "A hint of C.I.o. opposition to any run for political office by Senator Hansfleld is contained in MT. nriscoll's declaration that workers" realize more and more every day that they have to orgonize tn the Holtical field as well sin the fac- 1ory to rid themselves of false 4giends who make the legislative @Alls ring with demagoguery, hag- @ae over political jobs in back EDorns, ana make the true welfare ef their constituents only a last concern"
 sDr. Driscoi asserted that labor faaAons are thoroughly responsible 6Hr their actions under the law and claims that the senator's proposal would make them prey for company agents. He declared that his union receives a full financial report once amonth and that books are audited ny accountants.
 MT. Driscoll's statement.
 The members of our organization have never taken much interest in
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-11-07

the political career or philosophy of Michael V. Blansfield until very rec gently. This neglect of ours now shows itself Co be a major lapse of civic duty, since MT. Blansfield by his straitjacket proposal to incorp- oNate labor unions and particularly by his revealing statement yester- day uncovers himself as thorough going reactionary with suppressed desires for busting.
 Perhaps MT. Blansfleld took 50 long to answer my previous com- ments on recommendations because he had to take pains as 6 lawyer to be as malicious as possible without actually being guilty of libel. Hap- oily for the interests of fair play, however, the distinguished senator's command of logic and common sense is considerably less than his gift for name-calling and insinuatIon, Let us examine a few of his major argu- ments in the light of cold reality.
 In the first place, cries the sen- ator,, labor must be made responsible equally with management. How Is this to be done? Apparently by his suggestions, concerning the details of which MT. Blansfield is conven- iently silent. We understood, how- ever, that chief of these proposals Is the one requiring labor unions to incorporate.
