This was the first meeting between
the two greatest false alarms of re.
cent ring history. Palzer had ar
rived In New York only short time
before his bout with Moran. He had
boxed and wrestled a bit III his home
town in Iowa and in St., Paul, where
he was employed In a livery stable,
but he was still novice at the game
when he took on the Pittsburgher.
Tom o'Rourke had taken the husky
Iowa man under his wing and had
taught him the rudiments OF boxing,
Within few months palzer had
knocked out Tom Kennedy and Al
Kaufman. and In 1912 he put away
Bombardier Wells and Sailor White.
He was considered the most promis.
ing OF the white hopes" when he met
McCarty at Vernon in 1913, and was
knocked out. A little later he again
met Moran in New York and Frank
sent him down,for the full count. That

AN ANTI-BELLUM MENACE

The Boise, Idaho, Statesman calls attention to the
possibility that the will be followed by the arrival Of
large numbers of immigrants from southeastern Europe,
a prospect which makes it important that measures
should be taken by the federal government to prevent
the admission of undesirable persons Such widespread
and disastrous that in progress in Europe is
certain to be followed by great increase in disease pov
erty and crime Unless the immigration laws are strictly
administered the people of this country will have to sup
port largely increased population Of paupers and Grim
mails Our first duty is thus to provide for the strict
forcement of the immigration laws
The second duty Of the federal and state governments
is to investigate the present and prospective needs for
unskled labor in the leading industries in different parts
of the country to ascertain how many immigrants can be
provided with employment If men cannot be given work
to do there will unayoidaby be large increase in the
number of persons out of work for greater or less po-
ton of each year The national and state governments
should cooperate with each other and with private
agencies to bring about the best possible distribution of
immigrants in order that men seeking employment can
be placed where work is to be had Careful attention to
the distribution Of immigrants will accomplish more
than anything else to reduce unemployment and to limit
crime due to ideness poverty and distress
