Corbett's Daily Letter
 On Great Sport Topics
nr IAMEs J. YoRnETT

 Gardner, a tricky ringman, saw his chance. So he took a long jump back ward into the ropes. Like a tiger Terry sprang for him with both hands swing ing. and with absolutely no protection for his body or jaw. And that was what the crafty Gardner was waiting for. As Terry lunged in at him, Gardner led a left and Terry, in trying to avoid 1t, fell into half clinch.
 And then 1t happenedl
 Gardner put all the power of his stocky body into a short, snappy right that caught Terry flush on the chin. The champion staggered and just as. Gardner was about to let drive with a finishing punch, Terry flopped to the floor But in going down he grabbed Gardner's leg anu the westerner's efforts to shake him off were fruitless.
 Terry beat the count of ten by getting to his feet, but he was still so dazed and groggy when he got up that he continued to hold on Gardner's ankle. It was an absolutely unconscious action on Terrys part, yet it saved Terry from being dropped again-and perhaps for the full count.
 With Terry holding Gardners leg the western CT was unable to follow up his advantage. He tried to shake loose the hold that Terry had, but the champion clrng with remarkable tenacity. Gardner, unable to fight on one leg, hoped around the ring on one leg, dragging the wob- bly McGovern with him, while the i'm mense crowd was in an uproar.
 Make him let go of my leg" shrieked Gardner to Johnny White, who was the referee. And finally White jumped be- tween the two fighters and broke Ter rvs hold Gardner then tried to follow up his advantage, but was too late. By that time Terry's legs had steadied his logged brain had cleared enough to die- tate that he should clinch out the round.
 From then on Terry McGovern took no more reckless chances His careless ness in the first round had cured him. He respeced Gardner's walloping power and alhough he continued his aggres- siveness, he always maintained a fair defense for his jaw.
 Early in the second Terry caught Gard. uer with left to the jaw and the vest erner went down for the count of four No sooner had he scrambled to his feet than the waiting McGovern whipped over right to the jaw-and Gardner took nineA That was the beginning of the end, which came early in the third when Terry landed powerful left to Gard ner's chin which ended the sensational contest.

Fly JAMES
 One of the most spectacular fights of Terry McGovern's career was that with Oscar Gardner. back in 1s00-a battle that Terry nearly lost because of over-con- fidence and carelessness.
 Immediately after Terrible Terry an- nexed the featherweight crown by de- feating George Dixon on February 21, lsoo' he was bombardd with challenges. Among them was one from Gardner, then called The Omaha Kid" and a lighter who was known but little outside or ms own particular district Sam liar fis' who was managing Terry then, made a match for the champion with Gardner and the bout was put on on March 10 1900.
 Terry had been told that Gardner was only an ordinary warrior and that Gard ner didn't have much of a punch and depended solely upon defensive tactics to perpetuate him as a ringman And Ter " Nas-told that Gardner couldn't stand up under battering.
 About two punches, Terry, and you'lI knock him dead" Terry's friends as- sured him.
 Naturally that sort of talk made Terry think that victory would be a cinch for him.
 The champion was a 8 to I favorite over Gardner on fight night and with but little Garaner money in sight. Hosts of Terry's friends offered even money tha, Gardner wouldn't last five rounds-and found no takers. The very fact that no one wanted to back Gardner aused Ter. ry to think that the westerner was noth- ing but false alarm, which Terry's friends had pictured him to be.
 With the bang of the first gong Terry hustled out from his corner and swept upon Gardner. He drove lefts and rights for the westerner's head and body with all the fury in his 1.-the young body Gardner, with a show of extreme clever ness. brushed aside many of Terry's leads put so furious was the rush of the cham pion that Gardner was forced to give ground and began backing around the ring. Terry, always an open fighter, was absolutely reckless in that first round because he had no fear of a Gardner wallbp.

loans is, from one point of view. an act of enlightened self-interest. Because in this way we enable the European coun- tries to continue their purchases. Other- wise they might not be able to do this and that would cause immediate diminu- tion of American industries and might result in great reduction of prices and wages suddenly brought about possibly leading to serious condition of unem- ployment of labor.
 Therefore we must continue to sell on credit, we furnishing the credit, and this credit is to be regarded really as an investment. Furthermore it Is to be ex- pected that large amounts of American capital will be invested in the securities issued by o1her nations. by their rail- road companies, their responsible man ufacturing and other industrial corpora tions. Investment of this kind will to a considerable extent serve to make the liquidation of the billions which Europe now owes to JUS all the more easy. It is estimated in the financial district that should Congress give the authority to Secretary McAdoo, as it porbably will the aggregate of our loans to our friends across the sea will be found in the course of a year or two to amount to approximately nine billion dollars. So much as that represents all investment nominally by the government really by the people, in the evidences of obligation which those who borrowed from us will give as security for the debt

py which their obligations to this coun. try can be met. Secretary McAdoo does not refer to one fact which will stand In the way of utilizing foreign bought commodities as means of offsetting the obligations which Europe has incurred in the United States. For however large the imports from Europe may be they are sure to be offset for some years at least by the magnitude of our exports. Some excellent authorities estimate that the balance of trade in favor of the United States will for the next five years be considerably In excess of a billion dollars. That may be an overestimate but it is certain that large interna- tional trade balance will be created in our favor
 A GREAT INVESTMENT
 Therefore the United States must carry, as an investment, these loans perhaps for many years The amount should not be included in the statements which set forth estimates of the total cost to the United States of carrying on the war. The government is to pay interest to the purchasers of the Liberty Bonds, but it is not to pay any interest upon the eight billion dollars which our friends have borrowed in this country, but in. stead, will receive, interest each year, which will aggregate until some part of the principal is liquidated from 400 millions to 500 millions of dollars.
 The leading f1nanciers speak of this investment as remarkably good one for the United States. It is inconceivabie that the nations which have borrowed of us should default payment of inter- est or ultimately fail to liquidate the principal.
 MT. McAdoo says that to continue these

BRITISH WOMEN
PLAN EMIGRATION
TO UNITED STATES

/ London, England, Dec. zS.-Hun-
dreds Of women are expected to emf

| soon as the shipping situation viii
| permit.
General Booth, Of the Salvation
Army, which early recognized migra-
| ton for thousands OF women as one
of the first solutions OF the after-war
problem. has been giving much atten-
ton to the subject.
General Booth foresaw a slump in
the demand for women workers after
the war, and asked for a fund OF a
million dollars for emigration work.
About half that is now available.
He sent Commissioner D. c. Lamb,
head Of the Salvation Army migra-
ton department, to Canada to look
into the possibilities for woman set
tiers, and other agents have been
making similar investigations in Aus
tralia, New Zealand and South Africa.
Too Many Women In British Isles.
The fundamental aim OF this work
is to see to it when a woman leaves
for another land that she has some
place to go and will be cared for
properly until she Can settle down in
her new life.
The whole problem goes back to
the question OF excess women, a prob
