He's made some wild statements
that can't be documented."
Rosensohn, when asked If "the
underworld boys are in the pic
ture," replied he did not know,
but said he signed away his
rights in the promotion because
he had to. He refused to COM
ment when asked If he had been
threatened.
In Goteborg, Sweden, Jo-
hansson's adviser. Edwin ALL
quist, welcomed the news of the
investigations. and also the in
formation that Johansson's
purse for the June fight, in
which he knocked out Patter-
son in the third round, had
been released by a New York
court.
Purse Was Held Up
The purse had been held up
by an attachment filed by Eddie
Machen and the Chicago Sta
dunn Corp. In their suit for
81 ,229,375 damages against
Johansson, Patterson and
others, Machen commended he
was promised a rematch with
Johansson before the Swede
met Patterson for the title.
"a CLEAN of light in the
darkness" Ahlquist enthused
over the investigation. He said
he and Johansson would fly to
New York some day next week
to clear up things and If pos
sible reach an agreement on the
date and arrangements of a
return match.
Mai. Gen. Marvin Krule-
witch. chairman of the State
Athletic Commission, assigned
James P. Fusscas, commission
attorney. to investigate Rosen-
sohn Enterprises, Inc, and
Floyd Patterson Enterprises,
Inc, and all other aspects of
the promotion.
The feud between Rosen-
sohn and Velella flared into
the open last Friday when
Velella, holder of two-thirds of
the stock in Rosensohn Enter
prises, Inc, elected Irving
Kahn TelePrompTer president,
as a director. Kahn and Rosen-
sohn had been at odds.
Rosensohn added fuel to the
already blazing controversy
when, in a by-line magazine
story, he said he was forced
to relinquish promotional
rights by Patterson's manager,
Gus D'Amato, under threat
that the June fight otherwise
would be called of.

He did not say whether he
had asked for protection or
whether it was volunteered by

Attorneys office declined to

Full Scale Probe Begun
The note, limiting of sinister
influences at work came during
a day which saw both Rosen-
sohn and his erstwhile partner
in the enterprises, Vincent We
leila, answering subpoenas from
the District Attorneys office.
There also was the announce

1t is doubtful whether Hamp
Pool, Toronto coach. meant to
be taken so literally by the
Chicago Cardinals when he said
he welcomed the chance to play
the National Football League
club because of the use of un-
limited blocking.
Football is blocking and
tackling and it is not right that
anything should stand in its
way" the former Chicago Bears
end said, referring to Canadian
rules that limit blocking to the
area around the line of scrim-
mage.
The Cards didn't let anything
stand in their way last night
as they ground out a 55-26 ex-
hibition victory over the Cana
dian Big Four Football Union
team before 27,770 fans at To-
ronto. Their line continually
opened gaping holes. and their
rock-ribbed blocking continu-
ally kept the Canadian team
of stride.
KnOx's Passes Click
Only two of the II touch
downs came on passes, both
thrown by Ronnie Knox, Argo-
naut's quarterback on loan from
the Bears.
Chicago's touchdowns were
divided among eight players
Joe Childress, Bobby Watkins,
King Hill, Bobby Joe Conrad,
Jim Grow, Nal Hammack, Leo
Sugar and Lee Williams. Con-
rad also kicked a firstsquarter
single point by booting the
ball out the end zone and
added points after six touch
downs.
Dave Mann, speedy half
back cut by the Cards a year
ago. led the Toronto scoring
with two touchdowns. Bob
Dehlinger from the University
of Idaho and Jerry Philip, Sec
ond-year import from Florida
State. got the others. Vic
Kristopaitis Of Dayton Uni
versity kicked two extra points.
Knox hit Mann with a short
end-zone aerial and Philip with
a 9-yard pass, both in the third
quarter.
Ivy Clears Bench
The game gave Cards Coach
Frank Ivy an excellent op-
portunity to assess his clubs
strength. He had so players
dressed and cleared the bench,
including four quarterbacks.
The teams compromised on
rules, with the exception of the
blocking rule. Each team used
II men when the Cards had the

Luxembourg
Strengthens
Its Economy

Luxembourg. fiexing It's
muscles of steel, is heading
toward 1860 with a strong
economy that many larger ma
tons would envy.
The tiny. tidy country which
has about half the population
of Washington is winding up
the year with its steel mills
running at capacity.
Business has been so good, in
fact. that Luxembourg's three
large steel producers have been
turning down orders. AS q
consequence. despite some dis
appointing trends in its me-
dunn industries beverages.
tobacco, quarries, furniture
and chemicals), the country is
busy counting its profits.
Luxembourg, like other Euro
pean countries, has profited
from the steel strike in the
United States. Total ship
ments to the United States in
1859 are expected to be as high
as 100000 tons. compared to
about $4,000 tons in 1858.
The problem this year has
been to refuse a high percent
age of orders and to assure
regular customers that they
would receive a fair share Of
the present production.
officials believe steel produc-
ton will reach a record high
this year. Profits from this ac-
tivity will be particularly help
full in 1860, a year which the
steel industry has
set aside for modernization.
Increased efficiency of its
mills plus membership in an
economic union with Belgium
and the Common Market hold
the promise of even greater
prosperity in the years ahead.

Austria Boasts
Firm Economy

Tourists and industry are
kuilding a new era Of pros
'perity in Austria.
Buffeted by wars, reduced in
territory and burdened with
reparations, Austria has new
ertheless achieved an amazing
comeback since the end Of
World War II. American help
has played no small role in
that recovery.
Austria had scarcely recon-
ciled herself to the loss Of her
empire after World War I
when Hitler marched into vi
emma in 1888. Parts of the
country remained under post
war occupation until 1855
when the Soviet Union agreed
to a treaty.
Now the German-speaking
country boasts a stable, ex-
panding economy, an increas-
ing gross national product and
a growing tourist industry.
Tourism, in fact, has become
Austria's No. / source of for
eign revenues, more than off,
setting last year a decline in
exports. =

United States Ambassador to
Austria, recently remarked
that AuStria's economy is now

fore World War I when its
dominion extended almost to

has France refused qualified
outside assistance offered in a
spirit Of cooperation with her.
The urgency of developing
the oil market. on one hand,
the character of international
definition of that market, on
the other, made the acceptance
of such assistance all the more
advisable, with due cousidera-
ton for the national interests.
Prospecting Permits
At this time, regarding the
areas affected by prospecting
permits, foreign interests
amount to about % per cent.
About Is per cent for foreign
European groups, IA per cent
of these to the Royal Dutch

Oil of New Jersey, which has an

ago, in a so per cent association
with two French groups, in a

I do not believe that earlier
American cooperation will be
minimized by my statement
that the arrival Of Standard
Oil in the Sahara which, in
cidentally. created quite stir
! in the world, was, in itself,
quite an event.
1t has been correct to say
that the event, long delayed.
though doubtless it would not
have been possible before the
enactment of the Petroleum
Code, constituted a conSecrea-
ton of the Sahara, making it
an oil region of global i'm
portance.
For France. oil whose eco
nomic significance for the
country l hope to- have ex-
planned, is also a source of
revenue. I remind the reader
that the Petroleum Code spe-
ciflcally sets forth the relin-
quishment by the mother
country of considerable income
taxes (50% of the profits
realized by the companies)
which oil exploitation will pro-
vide for the treasury.
1t is the territories involved
which will reap the benefit of
this revenue through the i'm
proved standard of living for
their inhabitants. The Saba
rians' will not be the last to
benefit from the wealth of
their soil.
From the standpoint of hu-
manenesS and social better

measures taken by France in
the Sahara appear as a factor

Starting from zero in 1857,
and with 100000 tons in 1859,
the prospects, therefore, for
the immediate future are now
as follows: 8 to 10 million tons
in 1860, Is to 20 million in
1861 and 18 to 25 million, for
the Messaoud and Edjehh
basins alone, in 1862.
In less than five years after
the discovery of a given deposit
(Hassi-MeSSaoud) our oil men
will have attained. in the Sa-
hara, a production of 10 mil

reach that figure in the Middle

requirements.
Fifth Largest
Within the same time the
Sahara, which only yesterday
was non-existent in this re.
spect, will probably rank fifth
among the oil producers Of the
world. after the United States.
the Middle East, Venezuela and
the U. S. S. r.
In fact. taking into consid-
Grafton the probable extension
of certain fields, the possibility
of new discoveries, the con-
struction of new pipe lies, it is
altogether reasonable to en-
vision, from 1865 on, a Sahari-
an production Of so million
tons. a figure which definitely
exceeds French requirements.
In the matter of gas, our
Government has decided that
the gas form Hassi-R Mel, to
be brought to the coast by
means of feeder, will be sold
at a very low price to Algerian
consumers. so as to speed up
the induStrialiZation of Algeria
thus bringing about all the
fortunate consequences. both
socially and economically.
Algeria's absorption capacity,
however, can in no ways COM
pare to the immense Saharian
reserves. A study. therefore, is
being made of the possibility
of exporting to all of Western
Europe a considerable portion
of this source of energy. either
by ship. or by means Of under
water feeders, or by transmit
ting electric current over sub
merged CdDleS.
If these prospects are added
to those offered by oil itself,
I cite as an example the de-
cision to build in the near fu-
ture the great Mediterranean
Rhine pipeline. to feed the re-
flneries Of Alsace and the Karls-
ruhe region, it becomes OBJ
vious that the hydrocarbon
wealth of the Sahara is of
such magnitude that it moves
from the purely national plane
to European and Herewith to
a global one.
The part of Sahara directly
connected with the mother
country is represented by the
two departments of Saoura and
the Oasis formerly territories
OF Southern Algeria, and is
under my administration.
