COMPARISON
OF FIGHTERS
Small Chance to Draw True Line
Between Champion Jess Willard
and Jack Demp-
sey.
IBy H. c. Hamilton. United Press


Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, May 23-There is
small chance to draw true line OF
Jack Dempsey.
In the first place, the men are en-
ti1efy different In style and tempera-
ment- Willard IS slow, takes lots OF
punishment, and is not the heavy
plncher that Dempsey is. He fights
because that is mis- business.
Dempsey is fast, punches with pile
driving power and fights because he
likes It.
Records considered as matters Of
prowess, show four men who have
faced each principal in Tex Richards
big bouts. They are Arthur Peikey,
Gunboat Smith, Charley Miller and
Carl Morris.
OF the lot, there isn't one who could
last with Dempsey, and willard didn't
stop one Of them.
Pelkey and Willard boxed ten IN
satisfactory rounds in New York, and
there was no decision; he lasted less
than a round with Dempsey in Den.
yer.
Gunboat Smith, at that time, at the
very top Of his career, gave Jess a
fine cutting in San Francisco, al
though the Big Champion always has
claimed the decision was wiring This
was twenty-round go, and Dempsey
met Smith twice, once getting deci.
sion over him in four-round bout in
California and the second time stop
ping him In two rounds in Buffalo
Smith was floored nine times in the
latter bout before he finally stayed
down.

PETAIN TO

Great French Leader Intends to Come
to United States as Soon
as Circumstances
Permit.

[By VIM. Philip simms, United Press
Staff Correspondent
PARIS. (By maiL) = Marshal
Petain expects to pay a Visit TO
America as soon as circumstances
permit
There are few leaders Of men more
likable than Petain. His tastes are
simplicity itself He lives simply
and dresses simply. When l saw
him at his headquarters he was
wearing horizon-blue UNIFORM
without an inch of braid OF any de-
scription- Only his seven stars, on
each sleeve, to show his rank, gave
his dress even the slightest CLINT;
But even these stars were small and
of dulled silver He wore no serv-
ice stripes though entitled TO the
maximum, which is six. On his
breast only one bit OF ribbon was
pinned-without the decoration itself
and this was the "Medaille Mill
taire.s Ordinarily officers are not
entitled to this; only priyates and
non-coums ssioned officers are regu-
Iarly eligible. But officers who have
performed extraordinary services for
their country are awarded the medal

tain wears but one and that the
simplest OF the lot
The 1narshaps cuff buttons were Of
white metal They could not have
cost more than z few cents each.
His fezgfngs were of the knitted
variety.
In short, Marshal Petain is plain
bur neat colder utterly without gew-
gsws and dazzle. He carries MS
briifiancy in his head
Petain received the American cor
respondents At Chantilly 10 talk
about his trip 10 the American army
bases Of supply.
His comparisons were interesting.
In the days Of Napoleon, he pointed
ont. when armies numbered about
100000 and were generally On the
move. they lived on the country,
needed little transport and few
bases. Nowadays armies number
millions of men and their move
mentg are comparatively limited.
60 after a very few days, were they
dependent upon the localities where
in they are operating, they would be
foodlesg and Bupplyless.
Thus stupendoug bases Of semi
permanent character are necessary
to keen modern army fed and
enufoped and between these bases
ard the front vast system OF
transport must be kept circulating
The backbone Of the American
sos" or Service OF Supplies" the
marshal pointed out, was the ship.
Every ton OF food and equipment had
to be brought across the Atlantic
The three naval bases converged on
one central base, at Tours, the pretty
French inland city to the southwest

also at other points-but likewise

The Fifteen Cents Was Enough.

But he wasn't dropped, and at the
end of the season he was sold to
Davenport, where he played for three
years. From there he went to the
Boston Braves, where his good pitch
ing was entirely lost with hope
lessly poor team. He stuck there for
three years.
1t was then that McGraw picked
him out, but he only pitched six
games last season before he went
into the army. He won five out OF
the six.
At the opening of the season this
year he won his first six games
straight, making his average with
the Giants .917 for all the games he
has pitched in the two seasons.
And the fans are now referring to
him as the pitcher with the greatest
future OF any Of the twirlers, for he
is only twenty-five years old

Owing to the relatively small
production in the last two years
there is a shortage at the present
time Of 100000 automobiles. To
make up this deficiency the output
OF automobiles in 1919 should be
about 100000, but it is doubtful If
the industry can readjust itself rap
idly enough TO accomplish more
than half of this, and it would hard
" be wise policy TO attempt TO do
more this year.
Hugh Chalmers, chairman OF the

tions regarding the present status OF
the automobile industry in a special
