The welterweight champion at the pres ent time is Ted (Kid) Lewis But Lewis like Leonard is finding it difficult to keep down weight. He may have to go into the middleweight section soon to find opponents. And when he does, it Is not likely that he will find there. Mike O'Dowd the chdmpion of that depart ment Why? Simply because by that time Mike will probably have outgrown the 15S pounders and gone in for light heavyweight laurels.
 o'Dowd has been fighting considerably in Europe since the war ended and re- ports from there indicate that O'Dowd IS rapidly approaching the light-heavy- weight division as regards bulk.
 For quite a number of years Battling Levinsky and Jack Dillon alternated on the ight-heavyweight throne. After Dil- lon faded from the heights, the distinc- tion went to Levinsky. But when the Battler went down and out before the terrific onslaught of Jack Dempsey. he decided to quit the ring game for all time. Whether he will stick to this resolve or not is big question. But even if he attempts a comeback it is within the realms of possibility that some one will get him, because the Battler is not the fighter he used to be.
 If Jess Willard is ever going to fight agaln 1t certainly must be during 1913. The champion is aging and he is at a period of pugilistic life where every year counts heavily against him. The chances are that he will retire from the ring with out waging another battle. Of course. Willard may surprise the fight world by electing to take on Jack Dempsey some- time during the year. If he does .he risks the loss of his championship. Whether Dempsey could whip him is a question which cannot be settled until the two men get together in the ring. But all things considered, it must be admitted that if the veteran Willard takes on the youthful, aggressive and terrific hitting Dempsey, it is within the range of pos sibility that the name of another cham pon will be written on the roster of heayyyreight pugilism

ATTEND TO OWN AFFAIRS

Finally, mako it perfectly clear that we do not intend to take position of an international meddlesome Matty. The American people do not wish to 80 into an overseas war unless for a very great cause and where the issue is absolutely plain Therefore, we do not wish to under take the responsibility of sending our gal lant young men to die in obscure fights in the Balkans or in central Europe; or in war we do not approve of. More over. the American people do no intend to give up the Monroe doStrine. Let civilized Europe and Asia Introduce some kind of police system in the weak and disorderly countries at their thres- holds. But let the United States treat Mexico as our Balkan peninsula and refuse to allow European or Asiatic powers to interfere on this con tinent in any way that implies perma- nent or semi-permanent possession. Every one of our allies will with delight grant this request if President Wilson chooses to make it, and it will be a great misfortune if it is not made.
 T believe that such an effort made moderately and sanely. but sincerely and with utter scorn for words that are not made good by deeds will be produc- tive of real and lasting international good''

LAST ARTICLE BY
 ROOSEVELT WASA E RAP AT WILSON Editorial for Kansas City Star, Written January 3, Complains of Vagueness
 of League Idea
By Associated Press

Kansas City, January 13.-An article on the league of nations, the last contribu- tion that Col. Theodore Roosevelt pre- pared for the Kansas City Star, ap peared in that newspaper today. The editorial was dictated Friday, January 8, and his secretary expected to take the typed copy to him for correction on the following Monday. Instead she was notified early that morning of his death.
 The article follows:
 'It is, of course, serious misfortune that our people are not~geting a clear idea of what is happening on the other side. For the moment the point as to which we are foggy is the league of na- tons. We all of us earnestly desire such a league. only we wish to be sure that it will help and not hinder the cause of world peace and justice. There is not a young man in th.s country who tlas fought, or an old man. who has seen those dear to him fight, who does not wish to minimize the chance of future war. But there is not man of sense who does not know that in any such movement if too much is attempted the result is either failure or worse than failure.
 ON PAR WITH 14 POINTS
 ''The trouble with MT. Wilson's utter ances, so far as they are reported and the utterances of asquiescence in them by European statesmen, is that they are still absolutely in the stage of rhetoric precisely like the "A points. Some of the 14 points will probably have to be con- strued as having a mischievous sentence, a smaller number might be construed as being harmless, and one or two even as beneficial, but nobody knows what MT. Wilson really. means by them, and

PRESENT LEAGUE SUFFICIENT

Would it not be well to begin with the league which we actually have in eX- istence? the league of the allies who have fought through this great war? Let us at the peace table see that real jus tice is done as among those allies and that while the sternest reparation is de- manded from our foes for such horrors as those committed in Belgium, nofth- ern France, Armenia and the sinking Of the Lusitania, nothing should be done iI the spirit of mere vengeance. Then let us agree to extend the privileges or the league as rapidly as their conduct war rants it to other nations, doubtless dis eliminating between those who woultl have a guiding part in the league and the weak nations who would be entitled to the privileges of membership, but who would not be entitled to guiding voice in the councils. Let each nation reserve to itself and for it's own decision, and let it clearly set forth questions which are nonjustihable Let, nothing be done that will interfere with our preparing for our own defense by introducing system of individual obligatory military 41on Cxxyice- Dla

so all talk of adopting them as basis for a peace or league is nonsense, and if the talker is intelligent, it, is insincere nonsense to boot. MT Wilson's recent utterances give us absolutely no clew as to whether he really intends that at this moment he shall admit Russia, Germany, with which, incidentally, we are still waging' war, Turkey, China and Mexico into the league on 2 full equality with ourselves Mir. Taft has recently defined the purposes of the league and the limi- tations under which it would act, in way that enables most of us to say we very heartily agres in principle with his theory and can, without doubt come to an agreenept on snecific details.
