ABOUT WHEAT
GRUNDY IS DROPPED
FINCHOT SURPRISES
TARIFF UP TO HOOVER
SUROPEAN UNION
WHAT IT WILL MEAN
Last winter and in the early
spring the Farm Board, acting
through a subsidiary, bought forty
million bushels of wheat in an ef-
fort to peg the price. The world
wheat situation was such, however,
that the effort failed to accomplish
Its full purpose and the present out-
look Indicates a bumper crop for
1930. Some observers believe that
the governmental agency will'have
to adopt a drastic measure. Al-
ready there are reports from the
grain centers to the effect that
some wheat has been sold by the
Farm Board agencies at prices
which mean a loss to the Govern-
ment.
There can be no doubt but that the
measure has aroused intense opposi-
tion in many states. At this time
it is up to the President to take It
or leave It and nobody knows what
he will do. He has not committed
himself to any definite declaration
except to record his fixed determin
ation to veto any bill that restrict
ed his power under the flexible
clause.
It is probable that the London
Naval Treaty will get before the
Senate in a few days although, as
this is written, there is a possibility
that action may be postponed until
Fall. Additional criticism comes
from well-known Naval officers and
a general debate in the Senate
certain although present indication.*
are that the treaty will win. How-
ever, this is an opinion, not a pre-
diction.
Te Republican primary in Penn
sylvanla has attracted considerable
attention throughout the United
States, particularly the candidacy
of Joseph R. Grundy, the avowed
advocate of higher tariff rates, and
a man, whose straight-forward ex-
pressions of his views have been ad-
mirable although harmful to his
party In many states. Consequent-
ly, his defeat for nomination by Sec-
retary of Labor James J. Davis, will
be generally construed as advantag-
eous to his party in a national out-
look.

Of course, the writer does not at-
tempt to express any opinion on the
Pennsylvania situation and the dis-
cussion is based solely on the im-
pressions created outside of that
state. It is noted that the victory
of Secretary Davis is a triumph for
the Vare machine and a defeat for
the Mellons.
More surprising was the unex-
pected suoces of Olfford Pine hot in
securing the nomination for Gov-
ernor. Plnchot, running as a dry,
the avowed foe of the power inter-
ests and nationally accredited as a
political reformer and progressive,
managed to whip the Vare candi-
date. His victory will probably
mean election as governor and His
administration should attract na-
tional Interest and may make his
presidential possibility.
Criticism of the pending tariff
bill by various diplomats in this
country is causing considerable
speculation as to what notice will
be taken of the incidents. The
Swiss Minister, in a radio speech
and the Spanish Ambassador, at
luncheon, openly criticized the mea-
sure. There is some sentiment for
their recall but that any official
notice will be taken of the Incidents
is doubtful.
The action of Aristide Briand, for-
eign minister of France, who has
taken the initiative by outlining
plans for the organization of a fed-
eral union for Europe arouses con-
siderable Interest in this country.
The communication was sent to all
governments of Europe who are
members of the League of Nations
and the proposal is that the work
shall be undertaken in close co-op-
eration with the League.

JACK SHARKEY, AN OLD SALT HIMSELF, WON’T NEED ANY SCMELING
SALTS WHEN HE MEETS THE GERMAN FOR THE HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE
BY PHILLIP MARTIN
The Senate, receding from its de-
benture plan and the repeal of the
President's flexible tariff power
brought about a chance for the two
bouses to agree on a tariff measure
As the situation developed, the con-
ferees of the House .opposed to both
senate provisions, were able to re-
new discussions In an el fort to set-
tle other differences.
Briand states positively that the
federation shall be a regional pact,
not In opposition to the League or
to any ethical group In other
countries, and that It will not af-
fect the sovereign rights of the na-
tions engaged. He asked the other
countries to advise on the sugges-
tions (first) that Europe should af-
firm Its moral union and meet regu-
larly to discuss Its purposes and
(second) that an organization be
set up for providing a method of
contact. Various subjects are set
down for study, Including inter-
European tariffs, Improvement In
communications, financial co-oper-
atlon for countries. Improved hy-
giene and Increased parliamentary
Intercourse.
a | The French Ambassador at Wash-
ington assures the United States
that the proposed federation of the
twenty-six European nations is not
directed against any nation or
group of nations.

NEW YORK TROOPERS ON
"If Schmelling beats me I’ll feel
almost the same as a traitor to my
country."
The words were uttered by Jack
Sharkey. The scene was at Orange-
burg, N. Y„ the Sharkey training
camp, before a group of newspaper
men. Someone had just dropped
the remark that he believed “Shark-
ey didn't care whether or not the
title went to Germany.”
So I don’t care if the title goes
to Germany?” flashed the Boston
gob. There was a fire in his eye and
a noticeable touch of emotion in his
voice. "Well, get this. This is one
fight that I’ve got to win, for I
know that at least part of the na-
tion which is interested in fistic
affairs will be counting on me to a
man.
You should see some of the mail
I’ve received since the match was
made. I know from those letters
how the people of this country feel
about It. They’re caring plenty
whether I win or lose and you can
bet your last dollar that Mr. Shark >
ey will have to be killed before he
defeated. It Is for the world’s
championship that never has gone
i a foreign country,”
It would seem, my dear country-
men, that Jack Sharkey has a
strain of patriotism running through
him. Yes, it would seem that the
Bostonian, who has indulged in so
many half-hearted efforts, at last
keying himself up to the point
where he will fight to the last ditch
to retain the heavyweight title for
America—and Jack Sharkey.
Josef Paul Kukauska

ally the real name of Jack Sharkey
—can be a dangerous fighting man
at time, the times when he gets
riled up over something. I can re-
call three occasions when Josef
Paul has been almost invincible.
One was against Jack Dempsey, but
you remember he turned his head
to the referee to protest a low bow
and was thwacked on the jowl by
a terrific Dempsey smash. Another
time he almost killed Jack Delaney
in less than a round and then sat
weeping In his corner after the
Rapier of the North” had been
counted out. The third time was
in the tussle with Tommy Loughrnn
that ended in the early rounds with
Loughran asking the referee for a
brief respite in which to sit down
and clear his brain, following a ter-
rific Sharkey right to the chin.
There’ll be no stopping this emo-
tional Bostonian If he’s in the right
frame of mind. He’s a good deal
like the small boy who, “when he’s
good, he’s very, very good, and when
he's bad he’s awful.”
Meantime, Max Adolph Slgfried
Schmeling is impressing numerous
fans in his daily workouts at Endt-
cott, N. Y. The general opinion
among those who see the German in
training Is that Sharkey will have to
steer clear of the Teuton's right
hand, which he works overtime on
his sparring partners. Schmeling
hopes to have perfected a good
straight left before June 12, but It
Is dollars to doughnuts that he will
forget about his left hand when he
faces Sharkey and starts looking for
a spot to land his sledge-hammer
right.
