Railroads Kept
Away Crowds
By H. C. HAMILTON

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-Tex Rick
ard is still the worlds premier pro-
moter of fistic affairs, despite the
fact that his Toledo arena failed to
gather within it's walls the enormous
crowd that had been expected to at
tend the Willard Dempsey battle.
And Tex will not for many days
forget the policy that prevented the
railroad administration at Washing
ton from providing adequate trans
portation facilities which would en-
able many thousands of prospective
patrons from journeying to the scene
of the big mill.
Agents of railways all over the
country have wired Richard their re-
greet at inability to handle crowds OF
fight fans because the government de.
clined to sanction running special
trains and because the officials also
declined to allow special coaches to
be hitched to regular trains.
Practically every person who at
tended the fight from points west OF
Toledo was forced to take his chances
on the regular trains. Several spec
ials were run from the east, SEIZED
uled as second sections of regular
trains. Several hundred, for instance
were able to make the trip from New
York and Philadelphia by this means
eve had plenty of equipment tt
handle the crowds" one agent wrote
"but the cars were allowed to stanC
idle in the pards and are there yet
We were unable to do anything be
cause we had to unravel several mile
of rep tape in getting the consent O
the officials at Washington"
Richard made money on the high
lots of it. AS a after of fact h
was well repaid for his time ant
trouble in bringing the two heavy
weights together. He is also so peeve'
however, over the treatment accord
ed his venture in Washington tina
he never will venture again from NeN
York in staging big battle.

PackedL Like Cattle

WASHINGTON, Aug. d. - Packed
into steerage decks like cattle going to
slaughter, and outraged by the cyni-
cal violation of all sanitary precau-
lions, thousands of officers and men
who returned from France last Tues
day aboard the U. S. S. Zeppelin are
exhausting all the resources of rich
military Vocabulary on the Army
Transport Service, and are threaten
ing to make things not for various
officers of its personnel.
Overcrowding to such an extent as
to make even a travesty on civilized
existence impossible is reported by

err, who spent a year in France, and
who is now in Washington en- route

Fostered Bolshevism.
More than 5000 officers and men
came home on the Zeppelin, he states,
the majority being crowded in Ike
sardines on decks below the water
line. Fresh air in these "holes" was
almost impossible to obtain; many
men became violently i'll before the
ten days journey was over; and the
steerage was full of officers and
doughboys with service and wound
stripes whose mental and moral atti-
tude was that of bolsheviks and
tramps before they landed in Ho-
boken.
eve had to wait in line from thirty
minutes to an hour to get food which
was unfit for human consumption"
says Mr.. PEBBLES. "1'he coffee we
were given would cause the arrest of
a restaurant proprietor anywhere in
the country. ! saw men revolt against
the food and go hungry for days at
a time. Men stood in line for hours
every day to get cup of salt water
to shave with. There was no change
of linen for the entire trip; the men
had one towel for the ten days, and
one set of bed clothes.
