tBy Asseeiatea Pres.,

DETROIT, Sept. 30.-Henry
Ford. II, issued a statement today
in which he said that the "cure"
for economic conditions in the

everything that is produced, and
maintained that when the supply
meets the market demand, it will
result in the adjustment of prices
in every field so affected.
Prices are high, he added, be-
cause of scarcity. Industries in
the United States, he said, can
meet the demand if production is
stepped up.
: Uptrend in production, he con-

Lighf-Heayy Title Goal
OF Moore, Battling
Big Sheppard Here
By GEORGE Huber

Archie Moore's one ambition is to
be light-heayyweight boxing cham
pion of the world. He doesn't want
to own a tavern or manage other
fighters or whatever else fighters do
when they quit fighting. Beyond
getting the 175-pound crown, he has
no plans.
He fights Curtis Sheppard, the
Hatchetman, tomorrow night at
Griffith Stadium. Sheppard is
genuine heavyweight of 1870 pounds
and as Archie has done so often be-
fore, he will be giving away plenty.
There have been times when Moores
enthusiastic admirers have claimed
that despite his mere ITO pounds he
could bid for the heavyweight title.
He can take a punch and he can
dish it out and he's considered one
of the fastest men and the fanciest
boxer among the bigger fighters.
Archie, himself, says no. There's
no use kidding myself or anybody
else about me and the heavyweights.
I can lick lot of them, but when
they come over 200 pounds they get
kind of tough for light-heavy-
weight.
Eager to Fight Lesnevich.
'I1l fight the heavyweights -
seems to me that sometimes they're
the only ones can get to fight me
but what I want are those light
heavies, particularly Gus Lesnevich."
Archie started fighting as kid of
IA around clubs in st. Louis. kid
Chocolate was our idol in those
days." he recalls. 1--WE wanted to
be like him. put on the gloves with
the other kids and they found had
lot of natural boxing ability. Since
then I've never done anything else
except fight and I've never wanted
to be anything except champion of
the world"
He's been fighting professionally
for nearly 10 years and although
close enough to be listed as a
logical contender for years, he's
never yet made it. He's far from
being washed ups however, and
many an able boxing critic says that
the first time he gets Lesnevich in
a ring there'll be new 175-pound
king.
Oddly enough the st. Louis Negro
Is absolutely unmarked from all his
years of ring warfare. Just luck"
says Moore. 1--WE been hit plenty
although not as often as you'd think
in those 10 years. I keep boxing
around and bobbing my head and
when they do hit me they don't hit
me solid.'
Got Scar In Accident.
He does have one tiny scar above
his left eye, but it's not fight me-
mento. "a girl did it," he explains
II was just playing around with my
cousin and she tripped me and my
head hit post. That was even
before I started fighting"
His opponent tomorrow night,
Sheppard, also has title ambitions.
He wants to meet Joe Louis, prefer
ably in Baltimore. The fight gang
over there. where the Hatchetman
does most Of his slugging, has an
offer of 100000 for a Louis fight
and is willing to go higher if there
appears a real possibility of getting
Joe to come there. Sheppard's been
listed in the first 10 for a year.
His record last year shows 10 wins,
nine by knockouts, in IL fights.
One loss was. 12-rounder to Moore
during which Sheppard twice had
Archie on the floor.
