TOLEDO, Ohio, July AT 8
o'clock this morning the gates of the
massive arena built at Bayview park
here by Tex Rickard and Frank Flour
noy swung open for bleacher patrons
and the first move of the day for the
twelve-round, worlds championship
bout between Jess Willard. champion,
and Jack Dempsey, challenger, had
been made.
A long line of patrons of the ten
dollar section was waiting last night.
Through the long hours they stuck,
some sitting on boxes, munching at
others alternately stand
ing or lying down.
Rickard hoped to have the cheaper
seates filled within an hour after the
gates were opened. Shortly thereafter
the other gates were to open and what
was expected to be the biggest crowd
that ever saw sporting event in the
United States was to start through.
The arena, built in octagonal shape,
is equipped with many entrances, each
labeled for the section to which it
leads. Holders of tickets were to be
carefully separated and directed to

F. A. Iieuallen, formerly of Pendle-

war. War was being translated into
word terms by strange voice in
which the personal equation was sub
merged.
In this detached way he told me of
his three-day trip in an ambulance

share OF Gods air--the curses and
groans of the other occupants-the
pain of the abrupt stops to avoid shell

height of German delight. Blind!

this? And then he said to me: "A trip

He comes back with three citations
for bravery under fire. Men who have
deserved less will come back with
greater rank; but l would not trade
one of those citations for the trappings
of a general.

continued
There is today propaganda to
overturn this government by the
Industrial Workers of the World
One of the planks Of the Republican
party's national campaign will be a
policy to exterminate this vicious
element and its insiduous propra-
ganda without the coddling of its
members which has marked the
present administration attitude.
The conditions which existed up to
3 few weeks ago in the Northwest
due TO the propensity Of the red
tape ridden bureaus to 'manana"
the l. W. VS. is most striking
example of the strength which these
American Bolsheviks have been able
to acquire through coddling."
THE people of the United States
have looked with anxious eyes to
Seattle and the situation which de-
veloped containing potentialities and
purposes for the destruction of or
gained government. You may re-
call that the other twin brother of
Bolshevists, the Hun, denied he
started the war. Give equal cred
ence to the l. ". W, who seek to
erect in the place of this govern
ment by the people, a government
by class, Whose dominant char
acteristic is discomfort and dissatis-
faction). Crush them under your
