Maybe he reckoned to put himself IN

OPPOSE BOXING BILL
AS NOW FRAMED
Sports of New York Do Not
Agree with AssembIynan
McCue'S Ideas
By H. G. Hamilton

Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, Feb. 1.-Gents who use
to promote boxing fraeases in New
York city are dead set against the
boxing bill that has been prepared for
their benefit at the state capital
Tbey'v picked all kinds of flaws in it
and declare they never will give their
support to such a measure.
Assemblyman Marty McCue, who, in
his day, was rather a clever manipu-
/ llator of the padded mitts, is father
of the bill, and he spent many long
and weary hour figuring out the phras-
I es with which he intended to protect
the boxing public from INSCRIPTIONS
and scheming promoters. He had wit
messed the grating and bowling days
of the Frawley bill and had seen that
Ino-decision bill kicked into shreds at
Albany. Being a supporter of boxing,
he naturally wanted some kind of a
substitute spread on the books.
McCue, so it seems, had the idea in
his head of limiting expenses, admis-
siOns, and the fee that should be paid
to the state. But the promoters quickly
pointed out to him that staging box
ing of that sort in New York city nev-
er could be made to pay.
Philadelphia, they showed, with its
legalized six round bouts, could in that
event, outbid New York for the good
matches and get them. New York
would be forced to sit and twiddle its
thumbs if any brakes were slapped on
the producing end Of the contract.
Such concert of protest has risen
against the bill that it is probable it
will be allowed to die in committee.
Other bills, however, it is said, are in
course of preparation, and one of them
probably will be put for some action
before the end Of the legislative ses'
sion.

BUYING WAR SECURITIES
St. Louis Labor Ed tor Says Union Labor Is Trying to Surpass
 Previous Record.

From all quarters of the country organized labor gives unqualified en- Corsement of the Fourth Liberty Bonds and other financial support nee essary to make the war a complete success. ?. j. Morrin, editor and man ager of the Trades Council Union News, which is the official ;pokesman for organized labor in St Louis, writes that the Government has the whole-hearted support of St. Louis organized labor
 'The trades uB;aGists of St. Louis stan1 solidly behind the Government and it's program to prosecute the war to a victorious finish" Morrin writes This support is born in the knowl- edge that every American is in the war, and this kno edge inspires the most intense devotion to American ideals"

DIAMONDS VS. LIBERTY BONDS

We are told every day that dia- monds are the best class of invest ments, for they are continually ad. vancing in value. Perhaps so, but as an investment, it must be remembered that even if there is an advance it must absorb the large profit of the dealer before the owner realizes the advance.
 Whereas, Liberty Bonds carry no such profits to any dealer As collat- erals. diamonds cannot be expected to cover more than. say two-thirds of their value (try pawn shop), while Liberty Bonds will stand for practical ly t.eir face value.
 Diamonds have little practical value. save for ornamental purposes, and should we ever fall into the hands of the Huns. we will need no ornaments, and we'll so, for our savage masters would soon deprive us of them. While Liberty Bonds will forever preclude the possibility of German domination of our country.

BUY ANOTHER BOND
 EVEN F YQU MUST
 M0RTGAGE FUTURE
CAMPAIGN DRAWING TO A CLOSE AND ITS SUCCESS IS w.
 TALLY NECESSARY.
GERMANY NOT YET LICKED
Never Time in Course of War When Need of Support Was So
 Great.

The windup of the Fourth Liberty Loan is coming. The last efforts are being made all over the country by the army of solicitors. It is vitally neces- sary that the loan be subscribed. American dollars of the preceding Liberty Loans have made possible the smashing victories on the western front.
 With Bulgaria out of the war and the Allies in the Balkans threatening the very life of the Austrian Empire and threatening to put the Germanic allies out of the war, it is vital that the war aims of this country be sup ported.
 For the war is not yet over. There is still a great and practically unbrok- en German army that must be shat tered before the free nations of the earth will be left in peace. There is still the German conquests in Russia to wipe out before the world can be freed of the danger of a greater Prus- sian Empire being formed to again strike at the world.
 Huns' Home Untouched.
 It must be remembered that thus far the German has not had the war brought to his home territory. Ger many has been virtually untouched by the war. The German is still dream ing of victory, no matter what the propaganda sent out from Berlin by way of Holland and Switzerland is saying He would like to Hull the Al lies, and particularly the Americans, into the belief that he is beaten. The plain truth is that he is not.
 War takes money. More and more money must be raised if the Hun is to be finally smashed, if his defenses are to be broken and if he is to be hurled back into his own country. Tn order to insure this, buy another bond, Ii will take every dollar that can possi bly, be raised this time to meet and to | oversubscribe the greatest loan tlsis or any other nation has ever made. Ii you haven't bought all you can possi bly buy and pledged your credit into ] tlC 4UtG1t 4Ol l4AOItAio EOu Ae F1 done all that you can do and, as ar American, all that you ought to do.
 Buy Another Bond. It will only bring victory just a lit | tie nearer and shorten the war by jus so much.
 Make it a personal matter with yourself and wi1A ne-eRe else. Decide for yourself in all honesty whether or not you can buy one more 1 bond. There has never been a time in tht | course of the war when the need was as great as it is now. If you can lay hands on the money, if you can set where you can save it in the next few months, mortgage your future ana bu! l another bond.
