The Jack Dempsey-Hannah Will
liams divorce bout went to referee
for decision yesterday after a whirl-
wind final round in which the one
time heavyweight champion denied
his wifes charges of rough marital
tactics.
Dempsey said he had never struck
his wife nor threatened to kill her.
Before he took the stand Mrs.
Dempsey's counter claim for divorce
was dismissed because Yvette Col
bert, who Dempsey's attorney de-
clared was named in Mrs. Demp-
sey's suit. failed to appear as wit
ness despite court order to do so.
This left at issue only Mrs. Demp-
sey's separation suit-in which she
charges cruel and inhuman treat
ment-and Dempsey's suit for di-
vorce.
Testifying before Supreme Court
Referee J. Addison Young, Dempsey.
said that once at Hannah's request
he elected three young men from
their Central Park West apartment
and hurt his hand in the process
But he denied striking Mrs. Dor
othy Gomez, his wife's sister.
He said there was no truth in
Hannah's testimony that he threw
her against a wall on Mothers Day,

By the Associated Press.
Transportation Director JOS
eph B. Eastman told a Senate
committee today that freight
rate complaints have come not
from the shippers of the country,
but from "the lawyers and econ
omists of the Department of
Justice"
He added that If the rates were as
abnormally high as had been con-
tended by Justice Department wit
nesses the Nations shippers would
have complained long before the
Justice Department.
Declaring he was opposed, in its
present FORM" to legislation to
make te-flxing bureaus subject to
Interstate Commerce Commission
supervision, Mr.. Eastman told the
Senate Interstate Commerce Com
mittee:
The shippers of the country are
we'll organized and are very much
alive to their own interests, as they
have repeatedly demonstrated. If
the rate bureaus and the like had,
over their long history, been the
source of grave abuse which preju-
diced seriously the interests of the
shippers you may be sure that long
since there would have been an up
rising and that this situation would
have been made clear to you by
heavy tide of complaints pouring
into the commission and into the
Congress of the United States.
IF there has been or is such a
tide, it has somehow escaped my
knowledge. I believe this hearing
will demonstrate that such COM
plant as there is has its source, not
in the shippers of the country, but
in the lawyers and economists of
the Department of Justice"
He said small shippers, too, have
the benefit of competent organiza-
tions" to look after their interests.
Mr.. Eastman said he felt there
should be some Government regu-
lation Of rate-fixing policies and
added he would 60 into the matter

BY the Associated Press.

py Inc ASSOSlhNu FIeSA.
The War Production Board today
issued regulations covering the ex-
panded production Of farm machin-
cry announced last week by Chair
man Donald M. Nelson, when he
allotted 600, 900 tons of carbon steel
to the farm machinery industry for
the II months beginning July l..
( WPB said the allotment would
permit boost in farm equipment
production to nearly double that of
a normal year, though only around
30 per cent of the production In the
banner year Of 1910.
The new order fixes production
quotas for manufacturers based on
the actual needs of the farmers of
this country" as determined by the
War Food Administration, and it
has been approved by A. D. White
side, director Of the ONCE of Civil
ian Requirements, WPB said.
The new order cuts short the life
of It's predecessor by three months,
but producers are permitted to COM
plete their unfinished quotas in ad-
dition to the quotas newly set up.
The 900 ,000-ton allotment is made
up Of 10000 tons for the quarter
starting July and advance au-
thorizations of 100000 tons each for
the next three quarters.
The concentration of the in
dustry which was a feature of the
old order has been eliminated. but
small manufacturers still are as
signed relatively higher produce
ton quota than big producers.
Under the old scheme mspufac-
turers were divided into three
groups, the smallest producers being
permitted to continue the largest
percentage of production, and the
biggest manufacturers being pro-
hibited from virtually any produc-
tion except such heavy items as
combines, tractors and attachments.
This drew vigorous protests from
the large producers and their
dealers.
The new order permits pro-
ducer to make any of 1872 listed
machinery and equipment items up
to a specified percentage of the
total net weight of the product
manufactured by him in 1910 or
l94l, whichever was higher.
