MILLION DOLLAR NEWSPAPER
ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN
Economic Facts by Experts to Edu-
cate the People as to Why They
Should Vote Against the
Liquor Traf1c

The action of the Senate regard
ing national prohibition has made
1t seem wise To release our plans
earlier than we had intended" said
Charles Sickle, manager of the
strengthen America Campaign to-
day. For several months we have
been shaping up machinery. the
purpose Of which is TO secure
10000 deputies in $500 cities and
towns To push national million
dollar advertising campaign against
the liquor traffic. We shall begin
appointing local leaders at once"
This action of the Senate tends
To place the prohibition question
before the people purely upon its
merits. And this is as il should
be. There are so many questions
involved in the liquor problem that
national prohibition should not be
tied up to any other question. And
when the people vote upon it, they
should have before them all the
facts-social, economic and physi-
cal, so that if they should decide
that booze must 90, they will know
just why they did SOL
In the campaign outlined by Mr..
Stelzle, II is proposed that the ad-
vertising columns Of every worth
while daily and weekly newspaper
in the country will be used. The
ammunition will consist of construc-
tive arguments based on economic
facts. The issue will be fought
out in the local newspapers in the
20 wet" states.
The Million Dollar Campaign has
been preceded by an exhaustive
study of the economic conditions in
both dry and wet states so that the
arguments Of the liquor men may
he fairly met in the newspaper ad-
vertising columns.

Benny Leonard is not going to bar negroes from competition for the worlds lightweight championship. Just before he took on Leo Johnson a short time ago for ten round bout in New York he announced that every negro who proved himself worthy of a match for the title could have it.
 Leonard has rather startled the box ing fans by the willingness with which he Is meeting contenders for his crown. It has been the habit of light weight champions here of late to fight only semi-occasionally against some boy who really has no chance to beat him. Benny's first opponent was Johnny Kilbane. the lad everyone said at least would outpoint the New Workers.
 The success he has had, too, in de. feating every opponent, mainly with quick right hand sledge hammer blows puts previous lightweights of recent years out of consideration.

MORRIS PUNCHES HIMSELF OUT
 OF RING
lBy United Pressl

NEW YORK, Oct. To- - When Carl Morris proved Fred Fulton's com plaints were justified by fouling Full ton repeatedly in their last meeting he earned for himself a reputation that will prevent his ever reaching anything higher than the spot he now holds in the eyes of pugilism.
 San Francisco. for instance, has served notice that it wants none of the professional bruiser," 1.
 And, following this lead. cities in all sections of the country where boxing is allowed have relieved themselves of decided ideas concerning the man who once won on foul by Fulton only to have 1t charged that he was the real fouier, and then to foul Fulton so re- peatedly that it was necessary to stop the mill.
 Matt Hinkel, combining with other promoters, has barred Morris from competition in bouts under his direc- tion. The other promoters have agreed not to allow his appearance. Whether Carl ever will fight again depends
 on some promoter willing to abro, gate this agreement or upon one who
 did not enter into it.
 Carl punched himself into a fine state - with his head when he lost to

TWO CARELESS, MAYBE MALICIOUS
 SHOTS ARE FIRED
Slug Strikes Mrs. Roberts, Home and Stray Shot
 Hits Gocio Auto.

Two instances of carelessness, per haps malicious shooting. inside the city limits occurred Wednesday, one in the afternoon at West Barraque and Walnut streets. and the other near West Thirteenth avenue. In the latter instance, spent 48-calibre slug struck a window sash at the home of Mrs. N. T. Roberts, 603 w. Thirteeth avenue, about 10 D. m.. shattering the kitchen window, the slug rebounding and falling outside as it's force had been spent.
 The fact that the slug rebounded indicated that the shot must have been fired some distance from the house, the slug going in direction west from Beech street. Mrs. Roberts had been sitting by the window earlier in the evening cutting celery and prepar- ing a dish for the Business girls luncheon yesterday evening at the Y. M. c. A. She retired shortly before 10. A few moments later. her niece. Miss Edna Breidenbach. said she heard the glass shattered and pieces falling to the floor. They made an investi- gation and found the kitchen window broken The slug was found on the outside.
 The other incident occurred late in the afternoon. when Mrs. Joe Gocio, formerly of Grady, was riding in her auto. going from the postoffice, where she left MT. Gocio, to the Jefferson ho- tel. As the auto was turning into Bar raque, she swerved to one side with the turn, and just at that moment a bullet fired from the direction of Wal nut street. passed through the wind shield and the back of the car.
 There was no report to indicate where the shootist stood but the bullet broke the windshield and made it's mark on the hack of the rear seat and glanced off.
