NEW YORK, April IS. Kent

This cooperation made Asso-

Forging Membership.
Mr.. Cooper said formulation Of
a program to forge even stronger
membership ties was the most i'm

a fully awakened self-interest on
the part of this latter group to
carry the Associated Press nearer

Mr.. Cooper said a grass roots
campaign was undertaken to edu-
cate the membership to the value
of the AP cooperative principle
and stimulate membership con-
tributions to the news report.
Mr.. Cooper said 1948 was "a

Power Lobby

Right now, as this is written, the
private power lobby is sitting pref
ty, having won a signal victory
over the public power cooperatives
in slashing appropriations for trans
mission lines. particularly for the
southwest power administration ex-
pansion in Arkansas, Louisiana,
Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri.
These projects were backed by the
National Rural Electric Coopera-
tive Association, which claims to
represent 10 million farm people in
~ states.
The private power lobby lost its
initial fight when the house voted
some $4,000, 900 for these projects.
The lobby won in the senate when
the senate appropriations commit
tee not only slashed the money
from the appropriations, but
ordered the Southwestern Power
Administration to sign contracts
with the private power companies
in these areas for transmission to
consumers.
1t may be in the closing days of
this session before the battle is
over, because the fight is scheduled
to come on the senate floor with the
public power advocates seeking to
put the money back into the interior
department appropriations.

New Order

Now we begin to see what Ezzard
Charles is up against, what any
heavyweight champion might be up
aginst. This includes Joe Louis. 1t
is certain to work heavily against
Ezzard Charles.
Tunney had a sorry lot TO
face after Dempsey lost his
second start. He had Sharkey,
Risko, Heeney and one or two
more. They we're all terrible.
Tunney picked Heeney, a short
armed pushover. ! know Rick
ard wanted Sharkey, who had
lost to Risko.
After Tunney had completed his
operation on Heeney. there was
nothing left-just as there is moth.
ing left today-Sharkey, Schmeling,
Baer, Camera, raddock-flotsam
and jetsam. Both Schmeling and
Baer were dangerous punchers at
times, Braddock was smart, game
but all through-while Camera was
a 265 pound joke.
Here was spot in which no
great heavyweight could have
proved his rightful place. There was
nothing but inferior fighters to
face.
Then Joe Louis came along. Joe
Louis has been a great fighter. A
hard puncher and a fine boxer but
only fair on the receiving side
where head punches have hurt him.
Louis has never drawn one OF
the head liners to beat. Most OF
those Joe stopped had been beaten
by somebody else. Braddock out
pointed Baer. Baer knocked out
Schmeling. Baer wrecked Camera,
a joke from start to finish-Louis
was forced to get his reputation
from second-rate group-headed
by Billy Conn, light heavyweight.
But Schmeling was the best fight.
er Louis had TO meet through his
career.

AS Of July 81, infantile para

far ahead of 1914, the second worst
polio year in United States history.
A survey showed 6,935 cases over
the nation with 337 deaths, as
against 4,l76 for the same date in
1914. Totals for 1914 eventually
reached 1929, topped only by 27-

Jim Jeffries for his build-up. al
though jeff was then fat and part
ly bald.
Jack Dempsey, great fight
er, had the best break Of them
all. Jack, weighing 1888 pounds
the day before the willard
fight, had 26O pound giant to
face, a fighter who, after all,
had won the title from the great
Jack johnson.
After that Dempsey had Carpen-
tier, the great French war hero,
his ability as a heavyweight far
overpublicized. But the build-up
was on. Then Dempsey was lucky
enough to come upon the massive
Firpo, the wild bull of the Pampas,
the fighter who threw rocks.
After Firpo the old mauler from
Manassa had two other good
breaks as far as crowds, excite
ment and reputation 60. He had
Gene Tunney and Jack Sharkey.
Tunney was the dead game
young heavyweight just out OF
the war. He could box, punch
and take his share. He was bad
ly moderated. So was Jack
Sharkey on days or nights he
wanted to fight. Which wasn't
too often. This Sharkey was the
most temperamental fighter the
ring ever saw. But he could
box and punch - when he
wanted to.
Dempsey had all the fight game
needed-great ability TO start with
"a flaming spirit-and at least
five opponents who could draw ST.
100000 gates.
Dempsey was responsible for the
two great Tunney crowds. No one
knows this better than Gene, al
though he added his share. 1t was
entirely different when Tunney had
to face his ring future without any
Dempsey around. l think Tunney
retired when he did for many valid
reasons.

Five Percenters
IN WASHINGTON
Waller WIN

NH Oo1 VEIN 1Ill4NG lIldL Ildp-
A'A pens in Washington during
these long summer dog days can
be viewed through the jaundiced
eye of politics of what it will
mean in votes next year.
Latest sensation is the so-called
Five percenter scandal" There are
those who want to blow up this
five percent zeal into another Tea
pot Dome on the eve of the 1850
elections. They want another con-
gressional Investigation to be
dragged out as long as possible.
Insofar IS this reporter can
judge there is nothing here
that can be blown into the cate
CORY Of a scandal. There are
scores of people who have had
government jobs, who know
their way around Washington
in the huge and vast ramifica-
tions of this government, who
are making living telling 9TH
ers who come here, wanting to
sell to the government, how to
go about it. OF course there
may be some grafters who may
attempt to trade on the fact
they know Harry" But these
are few and will be weeded out
anyway, for it is the know
how" rather than Influence"
which will keep these people in
business.
Here is how it works. Take
big business on the scale of US.
Steel or International Harvester or
Edison Electric. This business
would have a large office with
highly paid staff with an unlimited
expense account to look after its
government contract work here in
Washington.
But a small business from st.
Louis, for instance, thinks it has
something the government should
buy, whether it's an office desk or
a new gadget. So this firm sends
representative to Washington to
sell the government. He may be an
able man, but he's here two weeks
or a month before he establishes
the proper connection, only to find
out the government isn't interested
or that he should have gone to San
Francisco, or st. Louis or Chicago
where the contract for that COM
modify is let. So the firm spends
a lot of useless money and winds
up right where it started. So the
common practice has been to con-
tact a representative in Washing
ton who is paid a retainer to in
form the small business concern
the how, where and when about the
commodity he has to sell. It's like
having your own man on the job.
That's what Five percenter" is.
And Washington is full of them.
Lawyers who have had expert
ence in Government practicing be-
fore the various governmental
agencies; business men who have
had experience in government; ca
reer men who have grown tired of
government service setting up their
own shop. even newsmen who have
run beats" in Washington for
many years have gone into the
business of Washington represen-
tative."
But 1t is legitimate business
and we don't believe the few
grafters who attempt to trade
on influence" can blow it up
into prediction scandal,
even though some anti-admin-
istratiOn congressman want to
try 1t.
