Executive Committee Not Ex-
pected to Take Drastic Ac-
ton at Today's Meeting.

and others of less note. by the exeou-
tive committee OF the National Lawn
Tennis Association at its meeting TODAY
In New York. II had been predicted
that their connection with sporting
goods houses would cause than to be
called professionals.
II Is certain that the executive COM
mittee will do nothing drastic at To-
days meeting. Amendments will he
made TO the amateur rule as II now
stands. but according TO the bylaw OF
the national association these amend
ments will have to be voted on at the
next annual meeting Of the national as
ISOLATION. which will not be held until
February. 1917. This. therefore. makes
II certain that Mclaughlin. Bundy.
Johnston. Alexander. and the others
will be eligible to play In the big tour
naments OF this season at least.
What will be done to the amateur
question when II comes up for de-
next February is another matter The
association may reject the amendments
or may adopt them. In any event II
Is practically assured that the amend
ments will be such that the men now
engaged in the sale OF sporting goods
will have ample opportunity to get out
OF that business and retain their ANA
teur standing before the amendment
goes into effect.

Read what Chas. Fairbanks, Repub-
lican nominee for Vice President, said
in his address at Indianapolis in Aug
ust, 1913, to the Republican editors OF
that state. Discussing the situation, he
said President Wilson is safer guide
than sensationalists and soldiers OF
fortune who come to the surface when
ever international controversies arise.
or the situation in Mexico he asserted
the belief that the trouble was due to
the effort on the part Of ambitious
cunning men TO force Intervention and
possibly annexation OF Mexico to the
United States"
Fairbanks isn't talking that way now,
because he is talking for buncombe
and to catch votes.

| Wilson'S administration was to pass
the Federal Reserve Currency law. de-
stroying the power illustrated by the
concrete example recited above. II
transferred 10 the government the pow :
er to extend credit TO banks. and thus
makes It impossible for rich men TO
back President up In the corner and
force him to do their bidding That is
why all that class OF men are against
Wilson. They ARE trying To buy this
election to bent him and have this
great law repealed.
Wilson went further. Ho provided
that no man should be director In more
than one National bank and one State
bank This destroyed tho "interlock-

the legitimate credit It needs. This Is
the most important law OF all the great
laws enacted BY Wilson.
