PROMOTES REAL! SCRAP. BUT NOT CENT OF PROFIT McLemore and Cooley Get Into It: And It’s a SureFire Main-Go. Members of the local sporting fra- j ternity were shaking their heads dubiously today as they asked one { another: “My, my, what’s things coming to?” Jimmy McLemore. local fight, promoter, Tuesday afternoon staged a show without hope of profit in his office in the Grand hotel. And Jimmy Cooley, referee, played the good old sport of “give and take” instead of dancing around, shouting encouragement to others. In fact, McLemore and Cooley were the “main go.” They went at it so enthusiastically that today McLemore has a “moused” right eye and a scalp wound, while Cooley's; head and cheek are cut. The bout was declared a draw, j although rumors of a return en- i gagement in police court have been j heard. Feint With Conversation The fight in detail: McLemore was first in the ring, the scene of the scrap being his private‘office. He showed no signs oi nervousness. Accompanied by a thunder of feet and slamming of doors, Cooley rushed to the fray. Both fighters exchanged wary glances. They feinted with conversation. Verbal taps were shaken off, with neither man scoring. After the w r armup, McLemore launched an offensive which was centered at Cooley’s reputation. Cooley was dazed with a “right-from-the-shoulder crack” from McLemore that “I don’t want anything to do with you; Frank Buchanan's j my referee.” Cooley shifted his tactics and his weight, and threw a right at McLemore’s face. McLemore caught it. Cooley threw another as the fight shifted to the doorway. McLemore went back to his desk. Here Was a Fight McLemore closed his eyes and his fist. The eyes closed as usual, but his fist c'osed around the neck of an empty gallon jug which happened to be near. McLemore broke away from Cooley and broke the jug over Cooley's head. Blood trickled from a cut on Cooley's head. The spectators nearly were prostrated. Here was a fight in which j somebody might get hurt. Undaunted by the roaring in his head and the glass in his ears, Cooley took a chair. He took it no farther than McLomore's head, which was far enough for the specators. Don Curley, manager of Tiger jack Fox, who had been in deals with McLemore before, decided that for once he wofild got the largest share, so he took most of the chair across the shoulders as he plunged between the battlers. Principle, You Know For several minutes a woman guest in the lobby had been screaming. not for action, but for police. Lieutenant Leo Troutman arrived on the scene and stopped the fight, much to the relief of everybody, including McLemore and Cooley. In a statement issued later, McLemore said: “I’m getting tired of all these mugs. Every time they don’t like what I do. they come in here and take a punch at my nose. Not that I care about the nose, but it's the principle of the thing.” In the washroom, removing the marks of battle which could be washed away, Cooley announced plans for a return engagement, wit h: "I’ll whip him every time from here on in if he crosses me.” Troutman advised that the next duel be fought with warrants. Couple on the Corner! Spokesmen close to both participants announced that the encounter grew from Cooley's objections to losing the job of refereeing McLemore's fight shows. - In the past, Cooley and George Gramel, of Terre Haute, had shared the assignments. Recently, however. Frank Buchanan, who obtained No. 1 license from the state boxing commission, has been the third man in the ring. Belief that the bout-was not entirely extemporaneous was fostered bv Cooley’s statement that he did not fear to beard McLemore in his den in the presence of members of his following. “I had a couple of guys on the corner, myself,” he said. “Anri they’d have been here if it was necessary. M'CRORY STORES NOT AFFECTED BY SUITS Voluntary Bankruptcy Petitions Are Discounted by City Manager. Voluntary bankruptcy petitions filed by seventeen state subsidiaries of the McCrory Stores Corporation in New York are not expected to affect operation of the company’s stores, according to Lloyd T. Hunter, manager of the local McCrory store, 17 East Washington street. Hunter said he had received a letter stating that difficulties of the company have been due to loss of the management of John G. McCrory, president, who retired eighteen months ago, but who how is regaining control. ASKS $20,000 DAMAGES Two Suits Filed Against Motorist by Injured Couple. Two suits totaling $20,000 in damages, were filed in county courts Tuesday against Fred O. Roach, 307 Agnes street. Mrs. Bertha Boltz demands $lO,000 in superior court four and her husband, Melvin A. Boltz seeks a similar amount. They allege they were injured when an automboile in which they were passengers was hit by Roach's car on State Road 41, south of Terre Haute, a few months ago.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

INFLATION CRY I IS UNDER STUDY BY ROOSEVELT i ‘Sound Money’ Leader and Low Tariff Expert in Conference. BY FREDERICK A. STORM United Press Staff Correspondent WARM SPRINGS, Ga„ Feb. I. Senator Cordell Hull of Tennessee, low tariff advocate, and Walter Lippmann, economist and syndicate editorial writer, who is a de- , termined opponent of direct cur-1 rency inflation, were called in by 1 President-Elect Franklin D. Roose- j velt today for economic conferences which may have far-reaching *e-; suits. Widespread demand has grown up in recc;it weeks in Washington and i business centers for drastically increased tariffs on goods from countries which, by abandonment of the gold standard or other means, have cheapened their currency. Another school of thought favors i currency inflation by this country to bring production and manufacturing costs nearer to a par with those in cheap money countries. Seeks Answer to Puzzle By bringing together an outstanding low tariff man and an outstanding anti-inflationist, it was believed Mr. Roosevelt sought to find a solution for the problem of coping j with the influx of low-priced i products from abroad without sac- | rificing either low tariff or anli- | inflation principles, j Professor Raymond Moley, Mr. Roosevelt’s economic adviser, was here to join in the conferences. Although it seemed probable that | economic discussions were the chief ! basis for the presence of Senator ; Hull and Lippmann. some observers believed that Mr. Roosevelt would discuss prospective offices in the new administration with them. Senator Hull has been suggested repeatedly for secretary of state, Ritchie in Cabinet Talk Lippmann has not heretofore been mentioned in rumors around the “little White House” as a member of the administration, and it was not known what office, if any, | might be offered to him. The name of Governor Albert Ritchie of Maryland entered cabinet discussions today, with the rumor that he might become secretary of the navy. It was reported also that Howard Bruce cf Maryj land was under consideration for assistant secretary of the treasury.

Reorganize Old Leaders BY RAY TUCKER Times Staff Writer WARM SPRINGS, Feb. 1. Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “new deal” will net apply to the distribution of j the thousands of federal jobs that will fall into the hands of hungry Democrats after March 4. Although strong for loyal friends, who fought for him at and before the Chicago convention, the Presi- ; dent-elect and his advisers in con-1 ference with him here realize they must recognize the old line leaders, who have kept the state machines greased in good and bad going, and who now hold control in their various bailiwicks. The Roosevelt faction which opposed the regulars in so many states will be given consideration, but any hope they may have had of supplanting the veterans is doomed. National Chairman James A. Farley has spent hours going over the situation with Mr. Roosevelt. In fact, for the last two days the President-elect has devoted most of i his time to considering candidates | for the hundreds of extremely important posts below cabinet and sub-cabinet rank. When the President-elect goes on his yachting trip Saturday, he will cut down his cabinet list to the ten survivors. Meanwhile, Mr. Farley and. half a dozen other leaders will do the same for lesser jobs at conferences at Miami. The presence here of Edward J. Flynn, New York secretary of staV and close Roosevelt friend, has brought the situation of regulars versus Rooseveltians to the fore. While Mr. Flynn waged the Presi-dent-elect’s battle. Tammany Chief John F. Curry, Alfred E. Smith and efthers opposed him bitterly.

LOAN RATE CUT * IS BEATEN OUT BY SINGLE VOTE Opposition of Democratic Leaders Brings Defeat in Senate. < Renewed effort to pass the bill cutting the 42 per cent interest rate on petty loans will be made in the senate this week, it was announced today by Senator William P, Dennigan <Dcm., Vincennes). Dennigan lest the battle to pass the bill Tuesday afternoon by a single vote, through an error and the opposition of Democratic party leaders. Twenty-six votes were requested to pass, the total was 25 to 20. The bill would reduce the rate to 24 per cent annually, or from the present 3 1 per cent a month to 2 per cent. As originally introduced by Dennigan, the rate would have been cut to l'j per cent, but the bill was amended, increasing it to 2 per cent. At the special session last summer. a Republican senate voted to reduce the ruts, but the bill was killed by the Democratic house. Alex Pursley, Hartford City, owner of a chain of small loan companies and member of the < Democratic state committee, sat on the senate sidelines, using the check off system oii the senators. He carries a cane which, figuratively speaking, might have born a club. For the party leaders leaped through the loop and prevented the bill from securing a constitutional majority. At least one senator who was pledged to vote for it left the chamber. However, a tactical blunder did as much as the majority leaders to prevent the bill’s passage. For at j the close of the roll call it had twenty-six favorable votes. Friends of the bill, not knowing ; this, moved the absentees be called, • While this was being done Senator | Larry Brandon (Dem„ Auburn) changed his vote from ”aye” to “no,” and calling the absentees failed to restore the constitutional ! majority. On the first roll call. Senator ; Anderson Ketchum <Dem., Greensburg*, president pro tern, of the senate and Democratic floor leader, failed to vote. Later he voted “no.”
