ANSWER TO
DUTCH PROTEST
Holland and German international
Law Authorities to be Quoted
In Support Of
Legality.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON, April 2.-The Unit
ed States will support the legality of
it's seizure of Dutch shipping by
quoting Dutch and German interna-
tional law authorities. An answer to
the Dutch protest against requisition-
ing, as printed in the Holland Official
Gazette and forwarded here, IS being
framed today, and will use these
quotations among other points to Off
set the Dutch view of the problem.
The answer will probably be made
public before night.
Unofficially answering Hollands OBJ
lection to American refusal of bunk
er coal for Dutch ships in our ports,
a war trade board official said today:
Had we furnished this coal, 1t
would have been more than a friendly
act, for. as the ships were loaded
with grain, they could have given
Holland wheat supply which would
have permitted other supplies to go
to Germany. Hollands protest de-
MES she was under German duress,
yet her protest admits that she no
titled the United States that Germany
objected to the allied-American shi5
agreement and hence she could not
accept It"

Willard and Fulton Are the Biggest
Men Who Ever Fought for
the Title or in Any
Bout.
BOTH OVER 200 POUNDS
Both Men Are About Equal In Size
and Should Put Up One Of
the Greatest Ring
Battles.

When Jess Willard and Fred Full
ton meet for the worlds heavyweight
title on July 4th In a city not yet
decided, two of the largest men as
far as height and reach go will ngnt
that have ever been known in The
history of the game. Big men have
met before in the ring, but never
have two such giants locked horns
as will settle the title for the heavy
weight championship on the coming
national holiday.
OF the two men, Willard seems to
be a shade the larger and he is the
biggest man who ever won the title.
However, he has very little advan-
tage over Fulton when 1t comes to
size and he Is just about one inch
taller. When Willard fought john
son at Havana In 1915 he weighed
about 24O pounds and Fulton has
given his normal weight as being
255. It is probable that the men
will enter the ring at about the same
weight as Willard viii not train
much below fifty and Fulton will
probably not get much more than
Ave pounds under normal. Willard Is
larger through the body, but Fulton
has the greater expansion. With the
exception of Jack Johnson who
weighed $50 ringside at Havana, the
men will be the heaviest that ever
entered the ring.
II Willard and Fulton are both In
the pink Of condition the fans who
see the fight will see two OF the
greatest specimens of manhood a,
far as physique goes that it would
be possible to see. Willard is the
bulkier of the two and Fulton is
more Of the sfnewy type Of athlete
who is powerful without bullying
muscles. They both can probably
strike more crushing blow than any
other fighter before them, not except
ing Bob Fitzsimmons. With two men
so physically near perfect as these
two seem to be battling for the belt,
It should go down as the greatest
battle in the history of prize fight
ing. which is taking in lot of ter
ritory.

ton over Charles Mccarthy in a
friendly contest. Berger was unop-
posed on the socialist ticket
At the primaries Lenroot polled 49,
600 votes. The total cast for the two
republican candidates was $4,000.
The democratic primary total was H.
900, and the socialist SO 900.
Unprecedented political observers re-
fused to accept the primary results as
an accurate forecast of today's cleo
ton. Though Wisconsin normally is
heavy republican, they recognized that
nearly half the republican vote at the
primaries went to Thompson because
of La Follette's war attitude. A good
ly portion of those votes, reinforcing
Berger's peace vote, would make the
socialist candidate one to be reckoned
with today.
