BRITISH OCCUPATION

4 glance at the maps of Europe
and Asia on which are designated
positions Of British troops shows
them to be rather we'll spotted. For
one reason or another the British
war department still considers it
necessary to keep troops in some
of the out-of-the-way places of the
world. While it is planned to re-
duce most of the forces there is
no immediate prospect of the with
drawal Of any force.
In the Balkans the British are
using their forces as a stabilizing
influence against the varied ambi-
lions of the several states In trans
Caspia, northwest of Afgahanistan,
they are protecting the population
from Turkish excuses, the result
of the refusal of the Turks to real
ize they have been beaten in the
war. In trans-Caucasia they are
fighting the Russian Bolsheviki In
northern Italy they are acting as a
buffer between the Italians and the
Czecho-S)ovaks until the peace con-
ference settles differences there
Several commands are in Russia and
fairly large forces are being main
tanned in India, Mesopatamia and
northern Persia.
Three divisions of the force sent
to Italy in 1917 remain but in con-
siderably reduced numbers. Many
men have been demobilized AMI
none sent to replace them. One
battalion is at Fiume. another at
Tyrol. A part of this force will be
used for the Allied Army of Occupa-
tion in Austria
The three divisions in the Bal
kans are stationed in the Dobrudja
which is the subject of considerable
controversy between Runania and
Bulgaria, near Constantinople and
the Dardanelles and in the vicinity
Of Salonika
In Egypt and Palestine there
might be more trouble with the
Turks if British force was rot
maintained there, while in Meso.
potamia it is feared the inhabitants
freed even of Turkish control, would
start fighting among themselves if
not controlled by the military. These
influences necessitate keeping a
certain number of troops in these
areas, in the opinion of the British

BULGARIA FACES
SERIOUS CRISIS
AS WARS RESULT

I Bulgaria is in the throes
of political crisis which will re-
quire the greatest wisdom for its
solution. She must liquidate the
military and political disaster and
the bad effects of the personal reg
ime of King Ferdinand which ex-
tended through a period of some
twenty-five years. She must restore
her standing with her alienated
foreign friends, and by wise con-
cessions and reforms forestall the
spread of extreme doctrines among
large and somewhat susceptible
population. Hearty cooperation of
all political parties is evidence of
their earnestness to meet the situa-
ton wisely.
The country now has a coalition
government, the cabinet being COM
posed of men from six different
parties. This is the third cabinet
change since last June, and each
change has seen an increasing
number of factions represented in
the official family. To an Ameri-
can the popular character of the
Bulgarian government is something
of revelation. no less than
dozen different parties being for
maily represented in Parliament.
Bulgaria has taken precautions
against internal troubles through
representative and parliamentary
discussion rather than in dictator
ships, street outbreaks or other
forms of social upheaval The
country breathes freer in the alb
sence of Ferdinand, even though
it is occupied by Entente troops.
The old chamber has been re-
tanned in office to avoid unnec-
cessary risks and the agitation al
ways attendant upon national cleo
lions. Premier Radoslavoff, who
was looked upon as a German dupe
had at no time more than a bare
majority, and that majority con-
sisted of Turks who, in Bulgaria,
have equal rights with the Bull
garians.
Since Ferdinand's exit, the good
behavior of the people has been in
remarkable contrast to the situation
prevailing in Russia This is ex-
planned by the assertion that Bull
garia is a virtual democracy and
has laid the basis for popular con-
tentment. There is equitable dis
tribution of the land, government
ownership of public utilities, legis-
ldtlFe contTo' oI inc executive, UNI
corrupted courts, and social leeis-
lation. Universal suffrage has been
enjoyed since the creation of the
state, and the people have proper
tionate representation. There IS
also the Australian ballot system,
and other guarantees of popular
rights.

GET TOGETHER FUR
 SELECTING REFEREE
Republican A. p. Leased WireI

TOLEDO, June 24.-Tex Rickard, promoter of the heavyweight cham pionship contest between Willard and Dempsey, July 4, met tonight with Jack Kearns, who is manager of the challenger, and officials of the army, navy and civilian board of box ing control, in an effort to solve the problem of selecting a referee.
 w. A. Gavin, member of the execu tive committee of the board, and Adam Empie, secretary, profess to be- lieve the situation is not a serious one and that the question will be set tied within two or three days.
 Various reports were current to- night that Willard had declared that he would accept Rickard as referee and no one else. Another report was that Kearns would insist upon either Jack Welch of San Francisco or Billy Brown of New York. Willard is op- posed to the plan of having two judges in addition to a referee.
 Dempsey was A years old today and in true boy fashion celebrated the occasion with a birthday party tonight by entertaining twenty-four children of the neighborhood.
 Twenty-three hundred persons pa.s 25c each today, to visit the chal- l lenger's camp in anticipation of seeing 1 him flatten out his sparring partners l Sergeant Bill Tate, who was knocked out yesterday, and the Jamaica Kid another negro sparring mate, kept their chins out of harms way but botr were considerably shaken up. Willard boxed ten exceedingly tame rounds and refrained from doing any thing impressive, although he worked | in the ring for 59 minutes.
 He continually stood flat-footed an6 allowed his sparring partners to hi i him in the stomach.
 John J. Reisler removed the las possible legal obstacle to the contes today, when he announced he woul' not take his case against Dempse, into court at this time. Reisler claim to have a contract to manage Dempsey Willard did not attend the confer
 ence but arranged to meet Promote Rickard tomorrow.
 Included in the list of officials sub
 mitted by Kearns. as acceptable t | Dempsey, were: Bill Brown of Nev
 York; Jack Welch of San Francis co; Ollie Pecord of Toledo; Jim Grif
 filth of San Francisco; Kid McPartlan' of New York, Jack Skelly of Yonkers New York; Walter Kelly of Buffalo
 and Billy Roche of New York.

 GERMANY TO U. s.

Danny Dunn, well known boxer, manager and trainer, who has been directing athletic activities overseas for the Knights of Columbus t.. many months, is hustling home from Germany to see the coming heavy weight championship battle between Willard and Dempsey at Toledo, July Fourth.

 Leave here May 22 and go to Paris. Have told them to book me to sail the tenth of June so I can get home in time for the big fight at Toledo July Fourth. Expect to reach New York about June 22."
 Danny has been centering his attention on promoting ring con tests and other sporting events fUi the boys in the American army of occupation. Before the war ended he was conducting shows near the front Probably hundreds of other lads who have been waiting word to sail for home hope to be as lucky as Danny.

Here's the Real Dope On Jess Willard

able to get into the pink of condition to defend his title against Jack Demp- sey at Bay View Park, July Fourth.
 Before he started for his camp for his workout the day I looked him over he weighed 25Sb pounds. This is less than he weighed when he met Frank Moran-a pound less, and the big day is three weeks or so away.
 When he stepped into the ring for his exercise I was surprised at his con- dition. True his flesh is not hard yet. It will not be stretched tightly over his muscles when he faces the Giant Killer. Willard is not the type that reaches the skin and bone condition.

Tex Rickard is now anticipating million dollar gate for the big fourth of July fisticuffs between Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey. The elastic arena" probably will /, seat 60,00O or 10000 fans. At first it was believed not more than 50,000 seats would be erected but the de- mand for tickets has been so good they're still adding to the original plans. If a million iron men are collected at the gate Tex Rickard will have about a half million in profits. Fortune favors the bold again.

Men Who Dare to Do.

Conventional men consider clothing, reputation and returns. The age calls for men who forget all in the ,ehal- ienge of the opportunity. While the crowd speculates and wonders, the man of the hour sees the opportunity and goes on to success. His fearless aares while others cringe. It is this quality that gives the lion.tamer con. rol of the beast. It is the quality that has thrilled every man that has risen above the average.
