Spencer News Herald: The main
thing is that we must some day learn
to settle our troubles without having
to resort to war, either industrial or
military. We must have permanent tri-
bunals whose business. like that of our
courts, shall be to investigate and de-
eide these things before it is necessary
to use force. There will be other in
dustrial troubles. Other working men
will be asking for higher wages and
shorter hours. Let's settle the next
strike, then, before it happens.

HOUSE TALKS Of
QUITTING AGAIN
Would Rest from Legislation
During October While
Senate Fumes.

WASHINGTON D. c. Sept. 30
The republican majority OF the
house OF representatives. is getting
tired again. Having been in session
for nearly six weeks longer than
they intended because OF the in
sistence Of Prest Wilson. they have
concluded that il is time 20 take
another adjournment, say.
through October. and perhaps a lit
tie OF November while the senate
Isl discussing the League OF Nations.
IL is undeniable hat the house
has largely failed TO do what the
president asked in early August
when q FIVE weeks adjournment had
been decided upon. True. the bill
granting powers and funds to Atty.
Gen. Palmer for prosecution Of
prodteers was: passed by both houses
and has gone TO conference, but the
passage Of important and remedial
legislation stops just about there. A
few so-called single shot tariff
bills have been passed affecting a
few comparatively minor industries,
but none could affect the high cost
OF living.

Republican Floor Leader Frank
w Mondell has announced that the
majority hopes to pass a railroad
bill Of some sort before the regular
session in December. At the pres
ent time there is little likelihood
OF this being done, there being sew
eral groups in each house OF con-
gress. each Of which possesses ap-
parently definitely fixed ideas TO TO
the future OF the railroads. and
which intends fighting for incor-
poration in the final measure.
What Is Being Done.
The merchant marine is in much
the same situation. although the
possibilities OF anything of a def
mite nature being done with IT be-
fore the regular session seem i'm
probable.
The Graham select committee 20

singing very low these days, and

Commenting on the plans for the

THE CAME
BYSUSPENSIONS
Barred Blows and Foul
Tactics Should Be Target
of Commissions.

After some Of the star boxers and
their managers have been suspended
by the commissions IN the various
states where the sport is legalized FOR
using Illegal blows in a match, they
viii probably take notice and try to
avoid the trouble.
In Wisconsin and also Minnesota the
commissions have ruled against the
backhand punch; in fact, II is Illegal
in most every state where boxing is
permitted, but there are many fight
ers who insist on trying to get away
with that Style Of work just the same
It is considered just as illegal as the
kidney punch and there is no reason
why II should be used.
The whole trouble seems to be with
the fighters and managers themselves,
also their trainers. In the gymna-
nackhand swing or any old thing they
can think Of. as no one pays the
slightest attention TO them, unless It
happens to be some boxer who knows
the ropes and probably hands back
the same dose With managers and
trainers watching their protoges work
and using these foul blows. IL Is not
TO be wondered at that they do the
same thing in the ring.
Another thing, the referees could
held matters By stopping the boxers
IN the midst OF a round where one
uses an illegal blow and explain the
nature OF the foul and at the same
time warn him that a repetition will
result in disqualification, instead Of
merely calling attention TO Il while
the men are mixing. In the midst Of
4 mixup the boxer forgets the warn
ing q second or two later. but II the
bout Is stopped and time taken out
he can not help but take notice and
know what to expect II he does re-
peat The fans, too, know what 10
expect then II the boxer does not
abide by the referees warning.
