Being Held At
Louisiana State u

WASHINGTON (ANP)- Ru-
mors around in boxing circles have
it that the National collegiate
Boxing tournament might be held
in Louisiana State university this
year. The law ofthat state pro-
hibits whites from fighting with
Negroes, Therefore Negro boxing
officials and those interested in
the fight game should protest the
holding Of the tournament in that
state.
Should enough protest come in
from officials sources, organiza-
tions and influential individuals,
the tournament will be held in a
northern state where Negroes will
be permitted to box in the collegi-
ate tournament.
If protests are sent in immedi-
ately to the "The Sport Depart
ment, Associated Negro Press
Washington Bureau, 1915-14th

they will be forwarded to the pro-

Still Going Strong

NEW YORK, N. Y. (ANP)-
Those in the music trade who
voiced the opinion that Buddy
Johnson's waxing Of "Did You See
Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball"?
would be stritly at dead issue when
the baseball season ended find
themselves thrown for a big loss
by the news that the Johnson
disc is selling at a bigger clip than
ever, even though baseball has
bowed out for the year.
An additional 100000 copies Of
the platter have been shipped to
southern distributors to meet a
demand that has been created by
the current transforming tour of
the Jackie Robinson All-Stars.
The Robinson squad, which also
includes Roy Campanella, Don
Newcombe and Larry Dolby, is
playing a series Of exhibition
games with leading Negro base
ball teams inthe South.

WHO GETS THE LIONS SHARE

The idea still seems 10 be prevalent
that the owners Of industry get the big re-
ward&-while the workers get the crumbs.
That Is one Of the worst possible mis-
conceptions. And IL is a good sign that in
dustry i now working to correct it, by re-
leasing simplified balance sheets showing
che actual financial experience of typical
enterprises.
A revealing example concerns the ma
tion's largest steel company, which has
been in business for AZ years. In that time
Il has had total gross income of $44 ,000,-
000. goo.
Here. on a percentage basis. is what
happened 10 the huge sum of money.
Payments Cor human energy~-wages,
payroll taxes, social security, etc. - took
si.s per cent.
Payments to other companies for
goods and services much of which went
out in payrolls - took 37.2 per cent.
Depreciation of equipment - worn
out tools - required 81 per cent.
The government, through taxes, re-
eeiyed Ga per cent
The owners of the business - the
stock holders who put up the money that
made the company and its employment
possible - received 8. per cent.
Further. not all Of that 8.3 per cent
went 10 the owners in cash. About third

that would be needed.
The point is clear Capital - which
simply accumulated savings Of millions of
people. most of them with modern means

smallest share of the company's earnings.

LAWS CAN BE ENFORCED

There are those in Key West, who
talk about the disregard of law and the
necessity for the punishment of criminals.
II IL a cry that is heard all over the land,
but for different reasons, depending upon
what particular law particular person
has in mind.
Back of the fight for law and order,
however, stands the impelled observance
Of all law. The assassination of man
in Chicago. the killing of little child
playine in the streets of New York, the
petty and enormous graft that mars our
political life and other criminal acts that
occur here, and elsewhere, are each part
Of a disregard for law that has flourished
in this country.
There are, in the United States,
enough police officials to enforce the laws
Of the land if these officials are properly
imbued with desire for law enforcement
ID is farce when police official learn
ing Of violation of the law, does nothing
unless some citizen complains. 1t is not
the business of the average citizen to swear
out warrants. or to work up evidence. We
have officials for these things and they
should do their duty.
