Zurich Herald, 1949-06-30, Page 2Swimmers "Salvage" Scuttled Ship—Seen through the window
of a seaside apartment, residents of Tel Aviv, Israel, flock to
this municipal bathing beach and use the ill-fated "Altalena" as
their diving board. The munitions ship, which members of the
Clow outlawed Irgun Zwai Leumi ran aground and tried to un-
load during a Palestine truce, was set on fire by members of
Haganah last June.
We never had Joe Louis pegged
*s a very deep thinker. Still, we
may be mistaken, at that, The
sculptor Rodin once did a piece of
statuary entitled "The Thinker"
which won world-wide acclaim and
which sent generations of art -
lovers into conniption fits; yet, to
our untutored mind the gent in the
statue looked as thougtth he never
harbored a thought deeper than
wondering whether to have his
breakfast eggs scrambled or fried
sunny -side -up. So we esee ss you
never can tell.
* * *
Anyway. it is rather interesting
to speculate on what thoughts, if
any, sped through Joe Louis' brain
as he contemplated the picture of
the likes of Ezzard Charles and
Jersey Joe !Walcott, battling for the
erowll which he, the Bomber, wore
no long and with such modesty. -
* * :r
Mayht jt,e was thinking cif the
time when he got his first crack at
i'he title --there in the possession of
the aging but game ,fames .1.
Braddock --and jimmy proceeded
to dump hint on the bosom of his
'britches in the very first round. (It
was a right to the jaw that did it,
of course; as Joe never could seem
to guard that side of his chops).
* 5 k
From then on, it wasn't much of
a
fight. Everybody but Braddock
knew that it was only a matter of
'time—but Jimmy's stark courage
carried him through the storm
'whi'c'h raged all through the fifth,
sixth and seventh until — in she
eighth—a right-hand splash proved
too much for even gameness. That
was on June 22, 1937 and a new
champion — one of the greatest, if
not the greatest — came into his
own.
* 'F *
Or maybe Louis was thinking of
The time when he received the only
veal setbacit of his careen. That was
Against Maxie Schmeling who, after
wat'ching Louis in the ring, came
away saying, "I see zomezing."
'fiat "zomezing," of course, was
Joe's openness to right hands to the
jaw, and when the two of them met,'
'the haughty Nazi took full advant-
age of what he had seen.
D * *
Schmeling floored joe with a
right to the jaw in the fourth, and
although the knockout didn't conte
until the twelfth, that was the
punch which did the damage. Joe
Louis had made the mistake of not
training properly for Maxie. But
the German also made a mistake.
instead of letting well enough
s lone, he returned to his native
country shooting off his mouth
about the superiority of the "Mas-
ter race" over inferior folks such
am colored people. And what a mis-
tske thud turned out to be!
* * 5
ithe return Schmeling - Louis
Ibrewl was fought just a year, to
the month, after Louis won the
ehampionethip, And what a fight
that was. kor ever since Schnl'el-
ieg's remarks about Master rates
and inferior peoples had come to
his ears, Louis had been waiting for
a chance to get even.
,k * *
The fight started off as though
it was going to be one of those
slow, sleepy affairs, For the first
minute of the opening round there
leas nothing but cautious 'feinting
and. ft'elinf;-oltt. '.then. all of a dud
.:i:!c bits ted loose.
Schmeling took two or three lefts
to the head -- fairly stiff punches,
but not really dangerous. Then
Maxie threw his Sunday punch—
the right alined for the jaw. It
missed. And Louis, swarming all
over the Nazi, blasted a right that
bounced Schmeling off the ropes—
bounced him straight back into a
machine -gun -like fire of hard. bat-
tering fists.
* * *
Louis Clever let up for even a spirt
second. One terrific right caught
,the proud German so hard that
Marie screamed in agony —
screanled so loudly that folks 20
rows away from the ringside could
hear it. Three times he went down
—and the white flag of surrender,
a. towel to sed by his seconds, hung
across the ropes, ignored by Louis
end referee alike.
* *
But, towel or no towel, the end
came quickly. Just two minutes
and four seconds after the opening.
gong sounded, time conquering Ger-
man was a dead pigeon, having •
thrown just two punches — one of
which missed cleanly, and the other
hardly more than a gesture.
:D * *
The Brown Bomber had had his
revenge. Maxie Schineling had been
made to eat the words which —
swollen with Ilitlerian pride — he
had been foolish enough to utter.
And that may have been the 'occa-
sion Joe Louis was recalling as—to
get back to our opening text—he
contemplated the picture of the
likes of Ezzard Charles and Jersey
Joe Walcott fighting for the throne
he had vacated.
* * *
Still, on the other hand, Joe may
have been thinking of noshing of
the sort. He night have been con-
templating the bolt office receipts
of the Ezzard Charles thing and
thinking — somewhat sadly — what
a sucker method of amassing
wealth fight promoting is, that is as
compared to actually fighting. You
never can tell about these thinkersl

A rattler uncommunicative fellow

get much information about him.
Finally ane of them stopped him at
the village store, asked how the
recent comer liked farming.
"All right, I guess."
"Making any money?"
"Guess so. Bought a hog in the
winter for $15. Sold him in the
spring far $32.50. Of course, it cost
me around 20 bucks to feed hint,"
"The'n you lost on the deal?"
"Well, not exactly. You see I had

GREAT BRITAIN
Britain's most important manu-
facture today — according to one
American correspondent seems
to be good news, It continues to
churn out such items in surprising
quantity and variety, he says, and
cites the following examples.
There were more jobs in Britain,
and more people in them during
June — 89,000 more — than there
had been in May.
There were fewer men and
women out of work — 20,000 fewer.
Unemployment was the lowest in
Europe and probably in the world.
At 304,200 all told, it represented
only 1.2 per cent of the working
population; and those figures in-
cluded folks who happened to be
shifting jobs ores were temporarily
unemployed for some other reason,
And, contrary to general belief,
there had been no general fall as
yet apparent in over-all British ex-
ports, Exports in May were $50,-
000,000 better than" in April; and
according to the latest month's
figures available, cars, trucks, trac-
tors and airplanes are being ex-
ported at a rate more than three
times as great as that before the
war.
Somehow Or other it should be a
reassurance to a troubled world to
know that — whatever the financial
experts say — facts and figures still
stubbornly insist on giving news
about Britain which is, on the
whole, good.
POLAND
Communist control and Com-
munist methods are old stuff in
.Poland now, The Poles have had
them for over four years now. But
iu spite of tales that the Polish
worker is beginning to discover a
bitter ta.s;e inside the sugar coat-
ing handed hint with his "peoples'
democracy" it is easy for the west-
erner to over -emphasize this, and
to look for any immediate uprising
among the Poles.
Por Poland tends to compare its
living conditions today NOT with
those before the war, but rather
with those during the German
occupation. The big boss in a na-
tionalized factory mey be a com-
munist. He may even be a Moscow
trained Communist, But at leasite
is a !'ole, and not a German!
Even Poles who detest the pres-
ent regime have a tendency to say,
"Well, at least we are among our-
selves." The hatred of the German
master during the occupation was
so intense that the new Communist
-master still seems mild by corn-
parisoe.
All of these are reasons why
there has been no violence in Po-
land. But this has been going an
for four years now, and the time
has arrived when the Polish worker
is beginning to notice same of his
disadvantages—which may be ane
reason why production in Poland'
has slumped a bit during recent
months,

falling off of production too, but
far a different reason. While col-
lectivization has not been pushed,
there have been published notices
that it is coming. And the peasant

As sated earlier, the rumblings

Polish Communist regime is likely
to grow far more difficult as time
goes on.•
RUSSIA
As the Paris conference drew to
a close there were widespread
speculations as to where it left re-
lationships between. East and West.
The consensus was that no really
fundamental shift of strength had
taken place — but that whatever
changes had been made were some-
what to Russia's advantage.
The world picture now looks
somewhat like this; the Russians
have got rid of the Berlin blockade
without any great loss of "face".
The economic outlook in the West
is uncertain, and there is pressure
for freer trade to open up Eastern
markets to Western goods, And al-
though United States Senate ratifi-
cation of the Atlantic treaty appears
likely, the arms program to imple-
ment that treaty is still in doubt.
There are even moves in Washing-
ton aimed at cutting downs, the
Marshall Plan appropriations. ,
Thus, according to some theories,
it has not been in the Keentlin's
interest to offer any important con-
cessions at Paris. Instead, Russian
strategy has apparently been to
epar for time, in the hope that the
West's economic position will take
a decided turn for the worse.
At the same time, Vishinsky put
the Western Foreign Ministers in
the embarrassing position of having
to negotiate on an issue they had
not eti`pected to consider — trade
and transport for Berlin. Should a
settlement of these matters be
reached — then we can look for
the Russians to claim that they
were the ones who initiated the
conference.
However, there has been this
consoling note — the 'tone of the
Paris conference on the whole has
been polite, with little of the back-
biting and ill -feeling which marked
previous ones. It is expected that
the Foreign It'Iinisters will make
some arrangement toward meeting
again, possibly in New York in the
early fall — and at least go through
the motions of trying again.
But if there' is any lesson to be
learned from the Paris affair, it is
this; a man who really knows
where he wants to go, and never
takes his eyes off that goal, is liable
to make for more progress than
those who have no definite objec-
tive, and just dawdle along hoping
for the best. And you can say this
about the Russians --- they keep
their sights always on the target,
come hell or high water.
