sembly who were in closer touch With
the people.
The fate Of the present government
rests largely on two counteracting
the ultimate result Of whose
actions it is difficult to foresee. On
thesone hand the government is itself
by no means strong and 1t establishing
itself more and more by the mere fact
Of it's continued existence.
Each Of the successive local strike
uprisings strains the ability Of the
government to restore order. The de-
his disposal are perhaps $4,000 to co.
900 me in all. This number is far
too few to garrison all the centers OF
disorder simultaneously and the MIN
lister of defense has been compelled
to move them from one scene of dis
order to another.
The appearance Of force given by
the disciplined troops Of Minister
Noske has each time meant the col
lapse of the uprising, but the time
may ONE when either simultaneous
exhaustion and disbursement of the
Noske volunteers may spell the tri-
umph OF the second revolution. About
$4,000 of these troops are reported
to have been concentrated in the Ber-
lin district to put down the insurrec-
ton in March, the men being with
drawn at considerable risk from oth-1
er danger points. The troops are still
sitting on the lid in Berlin but many
of them must be withdrawn when tn
insurrectionary movement breaks out
elsewhere.
The government itself is not able
to finance ever this small army and
seeks volunteer contributions from in
dustrial and financial concerns. The
owners of Berlin factories for in
stance passed the hat some time ago
and raised a fund of 5,000,00 marks
for the troops. Large Berlin banks
made an equal contribution.
The republican guards and other
popular German military organiza-
tons although nominally supporting
the government, are more of a men
ace than an asset as they are poorly
disciplined and largely infected with
Spartacan ideals. Considerable num-
bers of them can be counted upon to
60 over with their arms to an insur-
r%ectionary movement. These organ
~izations are jealous of the Noske units
and this antagonism led the republi-
can guards to join the Berlin upris-
ing last month. During the uprising
Minister Noske announced his deci-
sion to disband the entire force, but
ultimately went only half way in car
rying out his decision.

Los Angeles, Calf, Dec. lS.--Jack
Dempsey VIII defend his title against
all challenCers. regardless of the fact
that Georges Carpenter may not box
for nearly a year, as was stated IN
an announcement from London to-
day.
II Carpenter absolutely refuses to
box in this country there will be no

consider offers to go to Europe" said
Dempsey
Dempsey Is the champion and as
such is entitled TO have some say as
to where the battel will be fought, :"
said Jack Kearns, Dempsey's mana
ger.
IF Carpenter gets too gay and in
sista on doing all his fighting in
Europe there Is no assurance he will
he European champion long. Some
fellow Ike MIKE 0Down, the middle
weight cham pion, is likely to trip him
over.
To allow Carpenter to try 10 force
Dempsey into @ match in Paris or
London would be sftietrack ing the
American promoters, and that will
not be done. Dempsey is an Ameri
can and IS not refusing TO consider
foreign orders. 1t is up TO Carpenter
to be as liberal as Dempsey and give
our promoters chance at the con-
test
We would hate 10 pass up Car
pentier match, but we will do it rather
than boycott American promoters.
Jack lis a real world champion and will
defend his title against any legitimate
challenger. He will never dodge

will insist that our American promo
ters be given a hearing at all times -

suit was we couldn't stand up under
