NEW ORLEANS, Feb. THAT Kid
Williams. champion bantamwcight, will
face the best challenger in that division
and undergo the toughest time of his
reign before he succeeds in retaining his
title from the onslaught OF little Pete
Herman. OF New Orleans. Is the opinion
OF the majority OF the boxing critics
here who saw Williams barely shade
Frankie Burns little more than a month
ago. These critics are looking forward
to the Williams Herman fight OF Feb
ruary I with much the same feeling of
uneasiness and expectancy that they
looked forward to the Willard John
son fight in Havana. or to any other in
which there was a possibility OF title
changing hands.
This battle. which is the biggest thing
that has been staged in the fistic line
here this winter. marks the opening of
the new Louisiana Auditorium. which

Gently shot nine baskets from

"WE WANT TO PUNISH

The conference will decide the question"
 Miss Vernon, who attracted nation al attention by heckling President Wilson at the dedication of the labor temple at Washington, is mad on" the Democratic party.
 "From the Democratic administra- tion we have gained nothing-we do not expect we ever will. From the president down the party is opposed to the passage of the amendment.

EGIROWING TALES ABOUT
 OFFICERS MUSTACHES
By HAL o'FLAHERTY
(United Press Staff COrespOndent)

LONDON, August 14.-Many hair owing tales are going the rounds about army officers mustaches now. They fairly bristle with wit.
 Hundreds of pamphlets have been written in answer to the universally asked question: "Why is an officers mustache?"
 Under the title of "Hair Apparent one article today declares that cOm- pulsory service has produced hair raising problem, as the young officers are naturally interested in keeping a stiff upper lip.
 Mustaches may be grouped under three heads, or noses: Military magnificent, and morbid The mili- tary brand is very curt. It resembles either tooth brush, an eyebrow, or demi-semi-quaver, Charlie ChapIins are barred. The Guards, who set the standard for lip adornment, canned that variety while it was yet aborn- ing.
 The magnificent mustache, not much in vogue now, obscures the wearers identity. Like the stomach CT, it is a fashion of bygone days, dis cardcd because of its heavy fringe
 The most admired face foliage Of the moment is the mustache morbid. It combines the best of the military and magnificent yet possesses a charm peculiar to itself Early in life it rep resents a venial sin, a faint smudge upon a clear surface. It is cultivated with abandon and while many would prefer other types the only thing they can do is grin and wear it, avoid mir TOTS and excitabIe babies and wait for a gas attack when respirators make all mustaches equal in the sight of men.

VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS OF U. s. MEET
 FOR PREPAREDNESS
Especial to Gateway by United Press

Especial to Gateway by United Press)
 CHICAGO, August 16.-Uncle Sam's sons of empire met here today to talk of the time when they carried the flag into China, the Philippines, Cuba, Vera Cruz and the "coraI reefs and desert sands" where the United States army, navy or marine corps has fought in the past two decades.
 Several thousand of them, mem bers of the Veterans of the Foreign Wars of the United States are attend ing the seventeenth annual encamp- ment of the national organization. They came prepared to talk prepared ness.
 Grand Commander Gus F. Hartung of Denver, and Adjutant General Col. K. G. Woodside of Pittsburgh were early arrivals. Delegates are here from the Philippines and Canal Zone posts.
 Delegates displayed with pride their Campaign Badges. This badge, is- sued by Congress to men who saw active service in the Philippines, Haiti, Santo Domingo or Cuba, was the official badge of the encampment.
 The favorite campaign discussed to- day was that of General Winfield Scott. made from Vera Cruz to Mexico City in 1Sl6. The massacre at the Alamo was re-enacted, the sinking of the Maine pictured anew and the reoccupation of Cuba and the Nicaraguau campaign were fought over again by men who took part in many of these famous events.
 The opening session was called to order shortly after noon today. A smoker will be held this evening. The two hundred delegates of the Ladies Auxiliary will hold their ini- tial meeting tonight.
 Resolutions favoring enactment of the Key pension bill, already passed by the lower house of congress, were to be adopted at this afternoons ses- sion.
 Memorial services to commemorate the memory and history of the day will be conducted on the afternoon of ,he sixteenth. The convention will end Thursday.

ent women voters to turn the balance in favor of one party or another if such women are organized. The Democratic platform is an insult to the intelligent voting women of America, offering only a suffrage sop.
 eff Mir. Hughes takes his cue from Mir. Wilson and refuses unqualified endorsement of the Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment or offers only such tepid support as is found in the Republican party platform, the voting women of the country, represented by this conference today, will mark out a course to pursue during the cam 'paign and at the election.
 "The Democratic party, like a dying man undergoing deathbed repentance,  may retrieve the past by passing the Anthony amendment through the present Democratic congress. This would enable many of our members like Mrs. Harriett Stanton Blatch, Mrs. Sara Bard Field and others to campaign and vote for Mir. Wilson.
 "We are not depending on the party bound women to help us out because they are as partisan as men. We are counting on the independent women voters"
