THE live stock men and the meat

Mac Manus of Chicago. head of the
publicity department Of Armour &

stock commission men on a "boos-
err trip through several western
states.
"The live stock raisers and the
general public do not appreciate the
function of the packers in the eco
nomic life of this country" he said.
Il verify believe that if there had
been an organized packing industry
in Russia, that country would not
have fallen down in the war. There
are plenty of cattle on the hills Of
Russia and sill the millions in the
cities are hungry.
The packers are the marketing
agents of the live stock producers
and the purchasing agents of the
meat consumers.

Jack Dillon snickered when someone mentioned the great fight with Frank Moran in 1916, just a few months after the big Pittsburger had made good showing against Jess Willard.
 That battle with Moran was one of the easiest of my whole career and 1 figured it was going to be the toughest, :" related Dillon. For the first five rounds that bird had me completely fooled And I get laugh every time I think about it"
 You know" continued Dillon, 'this Moran had put up a whale of fight against Willard when the handicap he faced was taken into consideration. And frankly, when I met him that night in Brooklyn I figured that he was going to krock my block right back onto Manhat- tan Island. He had it on me many inches in reach, about five inches in height and 8 pounds or so in bulk And figured that he was going to wallop the wadding out of me
 Well, the fight started and I went into Moran and plugged him Then l PAt56SH iiihi eeSe@fi- lIC uil9. uuCkeuy And I dipped him once more Just about every shot I took at him landed, where as almost every swing of his was a clean miss. Did I get the idea right away that this Moran bird was going to be easy pickings for me? No sirree! Right along until the fifth nound or so I kept on thinking:
 "'This Moran is going to cut loose on me pretty soon, and then you poor Jack Dillon. He's only kidding you now, merely giving the crowd a little side show before the big stuff goes on.'
 But about the end of the fifth awoke to the rather startling fact that Moran was doing his very best, and that vas whipping him easily. So after that just continued to sail into him and guess I mussed him up quite bit be- fore the tenth and final round was over. Al any rate, got the unanimous popular decision, which, I daresay, surprised me a whole lot more than it did Moran
 ''Who gave you your toughest fight?f Dillon was asked.
 Eddie McGeorty, back in 191O," was the answer. ''He had me out for more than three rounds but he didn't know it. But

l guess Eddie can't be blamed for that ignorance because not even my handlers knew 1 was totally out of my right senses from the middle of the second un-
 til right after the beginning of the sixth round.
 furiously in the second when l saw that
 snappy left uppercut of his coming my
 way, and that's the last thing I re-
 membered for more than 12 minutes. I
 was told later that the punch lifted
 me foot off the floor but that I lacA
 ed on my feet and kept right on figh4-
 ing for the rest of that round, all through
 the third, fourth and fifth. And I'm
 told that l fought faultlessly and that
 tl ere was rothing peculiar about my &C.,
 tions until the bell sounded the end of
 the round. Then I couldn't get the idea
 that ] was to stop fighting and I'd just
 keep going until hauled back into my |. corner"
 What brought you around?" ''The same sort of a punch that had scattered my wits in the second" de- elared Dillon. Eddie shot that upper cut again and when it hit it brought me back to my senses. But, as is usaually
 the case when a fellow has been uncon- scous, he cannot realize that there has been any lapse I didn't. I thought it was stilla the second round until my han dlers told me at the end of the sixth that there are only four more to
 go, Jack-it having been a 10 rounder. Right then and there l figured that having been out for more than three rounds I must have lost heavily in points. And I decided to try to square things by furious fighting through the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth. I tore into Me- Coorty, and that boy tore back. As result, there was some of the best little toe-te-toe slugging ever seen in Indiana parts.
 And, although McGoorty had me oub for three and one-half rounds, I won the popular decison.'
