PUNCHING BAG NO HELP
IN GETTING BODY BLOWS

NEW YORK, Oct 1s.-The useful
ness Of the modern inflated punching
bag as means of developing hitting
power is being seriously questioned by
some of the leading boxers with brains
enough to try TO get at the bottom or
things concerning their trade. The
objection is that the bag. swinging on
level with the strikera head, is OF
no use on developing body blows. It
Is noticeable that body punching In
becoming lost art, most modern box
ers directing all their attention TO
swinging for the head
Even those who are versatile
enough TO direct their blows wherever
an opening can be found put far more
force in those for the jaw than those
for the region of the belt line. Yet
the body blow is by long odds the
most damaging. It's effect Is lasting.
while a blow on the jaw, unless 1t
dazes. badly. does no harm.
Formerly a large portion OF knock
outs were scored by clean cut body
blows. Nowadays the proportion Is
extremely small. In all probability
therein lies the reason that modern
glovemen are inferior to those OF a
decade ago. and accounts for the fact
that white hopes are so slow In de-
veloping.
Even those who favor the BODY blow
are far from being capable opponents
of its use. They employ the same
swinging motion that they use In
blows for the head This is necessar-
lily awkward and does not produce eff
fective results. half arm jolt or
uppercut, such as Fitzsimmons used
against Corbett and Sharkey Is the
most effective style. but this blow
cannot be developed by swinging at
bag hung on a level with the head.
A directly opposite set of muscles are
required In. delivering It, and as the
average boxer neglects to develop
them he has to depend on head blows.
When a modern boxer scores heav-
lily with a body blow 1t Is usually a
straight right for the heart--a punch
that can be practiced on the bag.

AID
PROMISED TO HELP
BUILD GOOD ROADS
FUND OF HALF MILLION TO BE
EXPENDED IN CO-OPERA-
TON WITH STATES,

Secretary of Agriculture David F.
Houston speaking at the third annual
American Roads congress at Detroit
on September 29th outlined the poll
cy of the federal government with re-
lation to road building. Recently
Congress appropriated half a million
dollars to be expended in the ratio of
one dollar of the government fund
to two dollars expended by the state
in the betterment of roads now or
hereafter to be used as post roads.
AS the rural routes cover practically
every important state road 1t will be
seen that this means government and
state cooperation in improvement of
all roads. The regular appropriation
for the department of public roads
Is $500. 900 so that the department of
agriculture is charged with the dis
bursement of large contingent fund.
In 1912 the State expenditure for
roads was s43,000,000. 1t Is esti-
mated that aside from the above men
toned sums there was expended To-
cally in 1912 S176,000.000. Quite
significantly large percentage of
this was wasted owing to faulty meth
DDS both of construction and of man
agement. The secretary deprecated
the ill-judged criticism of a certain
class which raised the old cry of CEN
tralization and States rights. But in
this great field of common interest
and in view OF the absolute necessity
Of cooperation he did not believe the
mass of the American people would
allow such prejudice to defent the i'm
portant road movement. The secre-
tary ably summarized the question
of federal help stating that 1t should,
in his opinion, follow approximately
these lines:
First. 1t should require the coop
Grafton of the State In a larger meas
ure In financial support and in con-
struction and maintenance.
I'm the second place, 1t should be
understood that the federal govern
ment should have adequate supervis-
ion and control over the enterprise
in each community and guarantee the
efficient expenditure of its own funds.
I'm the third place, the federal
commissioner should deal exclusive
ly with efficient agencies provided and
supported by the states.
I'm the fourth place. the plan
should provide for the apportion-
ment of funds among the states, on
the basis of certain essential factors;
and
Finally. the primary undertaking
should be to improve those commu-
nifty roads which are essential for the
marketing of products and for the
betterment of the physical, intellect
ual and social side of rural life

SILENT AXLES
IS NEWEST DEVICE

A practically noiseless type of driv-
ing gear has recently been perfected
by the use of worm bevels as they
are known, in motor carriages They
are said to assure a silent rear axle.
The new gears have done away
with the back lash" that looseness
between the teeth of straight gears
which causes noise in the differential
housing. Instead of having only the
limited contact afforded by the
straight bevel. the teeth of the worm
bevel are curved so as to have one set
of teeth emeshing while the set ad-
joining Is becoming disengaged.
This affords more continuous con-
tact and promotes g. smooth. sliding
action between the bevel gear and
the pinion.
The search for a noiseless type of
gear has extended over a long Pc
riod. After months of planning, ex-
pert tool makers were called in for
the preliminary work. 1t then took
just three weeks to turn out the first
set of gears. When completed. they
were thoroughly tested in an exper-
mental car and pronounced practi-
cally perfect. The next step was to
make them a manufacturing PROPOSE
ton. 1t became necessary to design
and perfect entirely new fixtures for
the gear cutting machines
The hair line accuracy required to
perfect the worm bevel gears means
that the machining and workmanship
must be accurate to the uttermost
limit. Absolute conformity to speci-
fications is the standard for the work.
Each operation In the course of man
ufacture is followed by rigid inspec-
ton. Instruments are used which
are capable of measuring one-tenth
of one one-thousandth of an Inch.
When completed, the gears are the
same in every respect
