|Menendez Ponders
Which 10 Headline
OF Starry Bouts

Matchmaker Gabe Menendez's all
star boxing program as finally ar
ranged for tomorrow night at Tur-
ner's Arena lists four Ground bouts,
one Of them a heavyweight clash
and another including Tee Hubert,
District middleweight champion, as
one Of the principals.
Menendez's next problem is which
to schedule as the main event. All
appear attractive fights, one of the
best of which may be that in which
Bee Bee Wright of Pittsburgh
tackles Don Leon. Wright has had
two fights here and made quite a
hit in both. Backed by a crew of
managers, Bee Bee claims to be
headed for the welterweight title
and he certainly has shown a deal
of ability.
He has a clean-hitting, busy style
that pleases and he moves around
with little waste motion. He now
has won more than 20 in a row.
Hubert, making his first start since
taking the D. C. title from John
Garner, Is meeting Nose Brown
sometime known as the Philly
Phantom. Hubert has won nine in
a row.
The heavyweight engagement is
between Walter Haefer Of Washing
ton and Buddy Thomas. Both won
recent engagements, Haefer over
Jim Robinson and Thomas over
Arthur France. The fourth match
is between Lee Rosan, popular Balti-
more club fighter, and Gene Brown
Of Atlanta, Ga.
From these fights Menendez plans
to draw talent for future shows. The
winner of the Buffalo-H Hubert en-
gagement takes on Holman Williams
next month, while Lee Oma is being
lined up as opponent for the Haefer-
Thomas winner.

Handicaps, Big Loop
TiIts Give Bow|ers
Full Gard Today

With The Evening Stars War

scheduled to start the action at 7
and the Mems District increasing
the heavy firing at $50 and five
other events getting under way early
in the afternoon, the Capital today

cap tournament at Lucky Strike.
Awards will be made in War bonds,
with first place worth $3.50 bond,
second, $100, and third. $75. The
six-game event, which started yes
terday, will end Tuesday night, with
the final squad rolling at 9.
Perce Wolfe, Washington's No. /
pin spiller, and Tony Santini, the
city's No. 3 nationally ranked duck
pinner, are In for busy day. First
they will 60 to Baltimore for the
Maryland State Doubles held for
residents of Maryland. Both aim to
compete in the King Pin handicap

be the outcome of the matches in
both the Ladies and Mems District

ahead in the women's flag chase, but
King Pin holds only a two-game
lead in the mems loop.

When Manager Ossie Bluege

of slab science will be George Ernest
Uhle. long the Wheelhorse of the
Cleveland Indians pitching setup
and one of the Wisest ever to grace a
big league mound.
Always an admirer of the stout
hearted Uhle since the days he bat
ted against him in the 20s and 30s,
Bluege finally convinced Clark Grif-
fifth. Washington prexy, that George
is the teacher the Mats need, so now
Uhle is the newest name on the
clubs list Of coaches.
Was Wonder With Tribe.
Experience alone should make
Uhle's presence worth while. but
added to this is his ability to ilnpart
his knowledge Of the pitching art to
youngsters, Bluege declares. He
knows his stuff and he can tell the
boys how to use theirs according to
Ossie, and we have, plenty who can
stand lot of teaching
Uhle has the distinction of being
one of the few pitchers ever to step
directly from the sandlots to q
major league Job and make good in
big way at the start. He came up
to Clevelands Indians in 1919 and
was with them for 10 years. then

produce is, the higher prices go.
History has lesson here: in ev-
cry period of initiation, wages have
never kept up with prices. And,
of course, pension payments, insur-
ance returns and interest revenue
remain where they were.
Initiation is dizzy ride. No time
to take it when there's a life-and-
death war on.
The government, therefore, wants
economic sterilization. How ii
hopes to bring that about is no
secret, There are seven controls
seven brakes on the initiation roll
er-coaster. President Roosevelt ex-
planned them to Congress last April
%. The seven main controls are:
l. Heavy taxation to pay war
costs and reduce spending by ev-
cry person.
2. Price ceilings for foods, goods
and rents.
3. Sterilization of wages and
salaries.
4. Sterilization of agricultural
prices.
S. Increased savings through
buying of war bonds.
6. Rationing of scarce goods to
insure fair distribution.
z. Heterogeneous of the use of
credit or installment buying and
the encouragement of the payment
! Of debt.
A program-of heavy taxation has
been approved by the Congress
The public is buying war bonds.
Ceilings have been put on prices OF
most articles, limitations have been
put ON credit and installrnent buy
ing and rationing is we'll under
way BY the Presidents order OF
October 5, sterilization of wages
and salaries was begun. Wages and
salaries were set at September Is
levels, with provisions for adjust
ments in certain cases, and a cell
ing of $3.50 put on salaries.
Passing laws and making regu-
lations may be enough in die
tatorship. But this is a democracy
Those brakes will hold only if the
people put weight and pressure be-
hind them. Subsequent articles
will explain why.

Cards All Time
Men Must Carry
Registration

State director of selective ser
vice, Col. Lawrence w. Long, today
advised all Mississippi men be-
tween the ages of 10 and 38 who
have been subject TO selective SER
vice registration for as long as six
months and who do not have their
classification cards, as well as their
registration cards, to communicate
with their local boards at once.
Col Long said that Government
was making an all out drive eff
fective today, February /, 1913, to
detect delinquent and lost regis
trants. Penalties are severe for
those who will be found without
these cards in their possession.
Such men are liable to fine and
Imprisonment or both. A concen-
trated effort is being made by the
selective service officials, the de-
partment Of justice, the federal bu-
reau Of investigation and all peace
officers and elected officials Of the
state to locate any such registrants.
Eevry man between the ages OF
IS and IS years must have his reg
istration card (selective service
form p in his possession at all
times.

When we talk about economics,
lot of people stop listening. They
think economics is something that
belongs to the colleges and the pro-
fessorS.
That's wrong. It's more wrong
than ever, now that the country is
at war
Economies belongs to everybody.
1t belongs to every man that has
dime, every man that has a want,
every man that has a loaf of bread.
A boy sells toy for a nickel.
That's economics. The boy spends
the nickel for six pieces of candy.
Economics. We order billion dol
lars worth of bombers. More eco
Monies.
/ Everybody knows what stabiliza-
ton means. And economic stabili-
cation is just this: The boy gets six
pieces of candy for his nickel to-
day, tomorrow, next month. We
get as many bombers for our bill
lion in January as we did last
March.
| Well. suppose we haven't got eco
nomic sterilization. What then?
Most likely: INITIATION.
Why?
There are 1874 million people in
the United States. All have appe-
tites. Appetites for food, of course.
And appetites for clothes, homes,
radios, fur coats. kiddie banks, silk
i stockings, and all those things that
make life SO comfortable and SO
American. But fighting country
can't spare time, material or ma
chimes to make most of those things.
Hall. of our manufacturing today is
making things for war. In addi-
ton, we must help feed, clothe and
equip our allies in Africa, Asia
Australia and other places = no
matter who they are and where
they are. The first half of our
why, then, is less material than we
want.
Meanwhile, more Americans are
working, at better wages, than ev-
er before. They have the power
dollars-to buy more than ever be-
fore. So the second half of our
why is more buying power.
Less goods, plus more buying
power, produce initiation. People
with more money than they have
had before will bid up prices of
scarce articles. That tendency pro-
duces initiation. In gold-rush days
hungry Alaskans with large bags
Of gold bid up the price of ham and
eggs to $50 plate
/ This up-bidding is only the. be-
ginning of initiation. AS prices rise
workers demand more pay. Maun-
facturers of goods bid up wages to
/ to get the men they need. This in
/ ereasesl as more men 60 into the
armed forces. And to pay these
wages. manufacturers raise prices
Farmers, losing workers to the SER
vices and to the manufacturers
raise wages. They raise wages il
they are sure they can get higher
| prices. If they aren't sure, they
