NATIONAL ADMINISTRATION
AS EMBOSSED BY DEM.
STATE CONVENTION

We endorse the course OF that
great statesman, Woodrow Will
son. who, with matchless courage
and sagacity has applied the
eternal principles of free govern
ment 10 the momentous social ard
economic questions which have in
the recent years come upon US to
tense our national lfe and test our
patriotism.
The Democratic party, through
it's control OF 10th the executive
ana legislative franches Of the ma
tional Government from 1913 to
1919. has Kept pace in its public
acts with the social and material
progress of the American people.
Its constructive legislation touch

progress and banking system of

tied people, 10 crown with VIC

greatest war in the history of the
world.
We take pride in the way in
which the Democratic war admin

triotism, called to its service, re-
gardless of party, those men
whose training and experience
made them necessary in the mobi-
lization of the country's entire re-
sources. AS a result great army

speed, trained and transported

the final blows for genuine liberty
in the world a year hefore Euro
peans believed it possible. Large
ness Of expenditure in the accom-
plishment of such a result Was a
national economy, as well as the
motive force of national triumph.
In contrast with Democratic
performance, we call attention TO
the course of the Republican Con-
gress, which, during the months
Of its complete legislative control,
has failed to rise above petty par
tisan politics, and in consequence
has failed to respond TO the inn
perative legislative needs of the
American people touching the
varied problems of reconstruction

We indorse the efforts of Presi-

whole-hearted support to the trea-

Does a Boxing Clique
Exist in This Country?
Are All Bouts Decided Before They Are Fought!
A Fixed" Match Brings More Money
to the Principals Later On
ny non mcDAvIu
BY JAMES J. CoRBETT

Is a boxing clique operating in the
eastern section Of the United states
to the detriment of the pugilistic sport?
Such charges are being made-and in
no uncertain terms-by men closely as
ISOLATED with the game and those who
have probed deeply into the rather pc
cular endings of many of the recent big
bouts.
1t is claimed that the prime movers
in the boxing game-most of them man.
ayers or promoters-are fixing all bouts
beforehand so that none will end in
Knockout; so that each logical opponent
of a champion or near. champion Will
not be eliminated by sleep punch but
will be saved up" for another meet
ing-or for two or three meetings.
The idea of such fixing, if there is
any. is quite clear. Suppose there are
only three outstanding foes for cham
pions in each division. If the cham
pion took each man on and knocked
him out, it would mean months Of in
activity for him, for the fans wouldn't
turn out to see a champion tackle for
the second time the man that he
Z knocked cold in the first outing.
But if the champion ''nursed" along
each of his foes in the first fight-let
the other fellows go the full route and
q. conduct themselves so that they merely
shaded the contenders-then the pub
lie. of course, would fall for a sec
ond fight, in view of the good showing
of the contender in the first battle
would be far larger than for the first
meeting. The greater the crowd. the
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1919-10-24

more money for the fighter, the promo
ter and the manager.
By nursing along opponents, the
champions continue at their pugilistic
work-and get good pay for it. They
are rarely in danger of being Knocked
out and even If they are outpointed-for
the purpose of inducing bigger crowd
for the next meeting-they lose nothing
but little prestige.
WANT STRAIGHT BOUTS
If there is such a clique at work
if the topnotch boxers of today are
really operating along the system that
is charged-then they are being false
to the men who support the game
they are not giving value received when
they step into prize ring.
For the fundamental principle of box
ing contests is for each man to try-to
the limit of his powers-to defeat the
other. The big thing. as far as the
wishes of the fight fans is concerned s
to knock out the other man, if 1t Is
possible. If not, then each man should
go to the limit in his effort to score
a decisive victory
The practice of Saving up" an OPP
ponent so thai another fight can be
staged to enrich both men is a practice
that is revolting-and dishonest: and II
there is such ring" operating in the
boxing game today. every effort should
be made to uncover it and to expose
those involved-and then for the fans
to blacklist them
Let's have clean and honest boxing
let's have bouts decided strictly upon
the merits of the men involved-or no
boxing at all
