BELGIUM LOVES U. S.
Entire Country Most Grateful for
Food, Says C. n. Lathrop.

Milwaukee, Wis, Feb. 6.-The Rev.
Charles \. Lathrop, formerly rector
of the Church of the Advent. San
Francisco, who becomes dean of All
Saints cathedral. has arrived in Mil
waukee after spending several months
in Liege, Belgium, as a representative
of the commission for relief in Bel
GUM.
Belgium loves the United States"
said Dean Lathrop. 1.-The little chill
dren as well the men and women
of that country understand that relief
came from America at a time when
Belgium faced starvation.
I'm one of the schools the children
read the printed report of the com
mission for the relief of Belgium.
When L asked why that was being
done, 1 was told that the men and
fully appreciate the goodness of this
country, so that when they became
men and women the story of how
America saved Belgium would not be
forgotten.
They love Brand Whitlock and
they love President Wilson. The chill
dren made many gifts, which they
brought to us and asked that they be
sent to the United States as presents
to Mr.. Wilson on the occasion of his
marriage. One present was a very
large centerpiece for a table. Worked
in the centerpiece was the inscription
, Grateful to the Good Americans and
about the edges were the names of the
children who made the gift.

Liege. with a population of 100000.

as newspaper guy. l amt got much
time to monkey with fighters. But I'll
tell you what I'll do. I'll try to get a
bout for you at a fair price. I'll show
you how it is done. Watch me closely.
Afterward you can go on handling your
self, using my system"
Well. Ike approached Billy Gibson. man
ager for Jim Coffey, and boldly declared
that Frank Moran could whale the con-
seriousness out of the scrapper with the
beverage name. This vexed Gibson. who
forthwith rushed to all the newspapers
and declared that Coffey could beat up
any person in the wide, wide world.
Ike Influenced Moran to visit various
newspaper shops to deny the truth of
Gibson's assertions and very soon after
ward Jimmy Johnson. promoter. sought
out Moran and Coffey and wanted to
match them up--at his own figures.
johnson offered Moran sum in keep
ing with the amounts previously earned
by Moran. The blond battler was on the
point OF accepting. when Ike Dorgan
loomed up in the citing learned Of john
sons offer, and said:
NIX. nix, Jimmy; this boy Moran
fights for certain percentase or he don't
fight at ALL"
Johnson demurred-but Ike was OBJ
durate. The public demanded Coffey-
Moran bout and rather than let some
other promoter grab it, Johnson reluc-
family met the demands of Ike Dorgan.
Moran's share for that first coffey fight
was $500. and when the money was
placed in the hands Of Moran he promptly
tainted.
Dorgan wanted to quit and return TO his
newspaper work, but Moran would not
listen to that idea.

IS BROTHER OF FAMOUS "TAD"


No one ever thought It of quiet, un-
assuming John L.-otherwise known as
Ike-Dorgan, and there's a whole lot of
folks who won't believe it until they
gather in all the details OF how he jumped
in four brief months from obscruity to
fame as the greatest financier since the
days of Adam and little Eva.
Until last September Ike's only claim to
greatness was the fact that he was a
mighty good newspaper writer and the
brother of r. Aloysius Dorgan, known as
Tad. And then fate ruled that Ike should
encounter Frank Moran. pugilist. just at
a moment when the aforesaid Frank was
wearing woe-begone expression.

Ike.

nature and run me down SO low on my
original demands that before I get
