Champion Confident;
Says He Will Win Out

I have not figured out any par
ticular line of battle. for have
never seen Moran in action and
cannot tell Just what he will do. 1t
may take me several rounds to size
him up, but once know what he
has got. I shall be in a position to
go ahead and box for his weakest
point. / haven't the slightest idea
whether it will be fast or slow
bout. Much depends upon what
Moran does. If he meets me half
way. the bout will be fast and full
of action from start to finish. If
he will stand up and box blow for
blow, I will win decisively.-Je ess

BUSINESS MEN MAY AID
ARMENIAN RELIEF WORK

Leading business men, banks, hotels,
and theaters, of the National Capital,
will be appealed to today to permit con-
tribution booths cor tables to be installed
in their establishments to aid the Ar
menianss and Syrians who are facing
starvation as a result of being driven
from their homes in Asia Minor by the
invading Turks. Similar appeals were
sent yesterday to all the larger restau-
rants in the city for permission to put
contribution boxes here.
In his appeal on behalf of the Wash
ington auxiliary committee for Armenian
and Syrian relief, DR.. NJ. N. Dolna ge
cites the proclamation of President vii
son setting aside October p and p as
joint days for the people OF the United
States to give to this cause. DR.. Dolmage
asserts that in addition to the 1,7O0.OO0 OF
these people who have been slaughtered
in the name of military necessity, the
survivors who have been driven into exile
are dying by tho hundreds daily from
lack of proper nOurishment.

ARMY INSIGNIA BARRED
To CADETS OF CAPITAL
Figh School Regiment Must Seek New
Emblems for Uniforms.

The new officers Of the Washington
Sigh School Cadets, after passing their
examinations, will not be able to wear
tie regular army insignia which thelr
predecessors in office have worn.
The national defense act Of June 3, 1916
proyides a fine Of $500 for the use Of the
army uniform or officers insignia by
such organizations as the local high
school cadets, and the local school au-
thorfties will have to decide upon the
use Of the insignia Of the Reserve Or
fcers Training Corps or some other de-
sign different from the service insignia
Stephen E. Kramer, assistant superin-
tendent Of schools, said last night that
the schools probably would decide upon
the use Of the r. o. T. c. insignia which
while II does not commit them to mem
bership in the Junior reserve corps, would
save time and trouble II the Board OF
Education decides that the local high
school soldiers should enter the reserve.
Mr.. Kramer said that the question OF
entrance into the reserve corps would
probably not be taken up until Capt. L.
z. steever, who has been detailed by
the War Department to instruct the local
cadets, arrives in Washington early in
November.

SACRED CHINESE TEMPLE
GIVES WAY TO TRADE

The giving way Of ancient Oriental
conservatism to the new blood and new
national ideals of the Occident is seen
In the removal OF the sacred Temple to
the Queen Of Haven at Shanghai to give
place for the new building of the Chinese
Chamber OF Commerce. reported through
CONSULAR channels to the Department OF
Commerce today.
This incident is taken to indicate that
many of the time-honored customs OF
China which have proved stultifying to
progress and advancement in trade are
to give precedence to utilitarian modern
ism. just as, Japan's traditions were
shelved to a large extent when Com
modore Perry brought the light OF
Western civilization to the doors OF the
