responsible cause of the continued
inequities OF taxation.
On the other hand, the Republi-
cans may surprise their Democratic
friends by taclSling the tax question
anyway, figuring that they will be
able to capture the next Congress on
other counts in the Democrutlc rec

revision Of the tax laws would
please business men. whichever way
they approach the subject there Is

of Cleveland. author OF boys books on
wireless and member of the Insti-
tute of Radio Engineers, spent more
than four days in selecting from the
entries those who should win the prizes
offered by the Journal and it's asso-
ciated newspapers
Although their task was not an easy
one. the judges believe that they dis
pensed justice by strict adherence
to the rules and a careful consideration
of the merits of each entrant
To both DIR. DeForest and Robert
III. Gowan, his chief engineer, the en-
tries were a revelation Of the work Of
the American amateur.
So deeply interested was the De-
Forest engineer that he begged the
privilege of borrowing all the entries
made in order that he might write a
treatise on the success of the amateur
for wireless technical magazine.
One other electrical experimenter's
magazine, read by every amateur on
the continent, is preparing an article
on the success of the contest.
The contest developed the interest of
the government in the amateur and
at Washington, d. c., Rear Admiral
Billiard co-operated with the Wash
ington Herald. Admiral Billiard is the
head Of the governments wireless. The
great government station at Airing
ton hurled the first announcement of
the contest around the world.
In the opinion of the judges and
those interested in the future of the
wireless, the contest did much to slim
ulate interest among amateurs and to
bring the general public some knowl-
edge Of what "the kid next door" is
doing with this greatest miracle of
all times--speech across space.
Although the Pensacola boys did not
win prizes in the first three places,
their work was SO good that they were
listed in the next group and each will
receive a set of Red Head Wireless
Receivers. The judges found it very
difficult to determine the winners, but
finally awarded the first three places
as follows: first, J. Wilfred Emling,
Erie, Pa; second, Margaret B. Carroll,
Washington, d. c.; third, Doyle Ken
nedy, Douglas, Texas.
The Journal was notified yesterday
that prizes for the local winners are
in the mail and they will be delivered
as soon as they arrive.

BY LOUIS II. JAFFE

For the second time in his fstic
career, Charley Ledoux, the French
man, will start n campaign in this
country for the purpose of getting a
crack at the worlds bantam champion
ship. Back in 1913, when Johnny
Coulon was the 116- pound boss, Ledoux
invaded the shores Of Unce Sam, but
before he was able to get a match with
the Chicagoan. Kid Williams slowed
away the French in the fifteenth round
OF gruelling battle. At that time
Williams was great battler, which he
proved the following year when he de-
throned Coulon.
Tonight at the Philadelphia Ice Pal
ace Ledoux starts on another campaign
against American boxers with the in
tention of hooking up for worlds
titular tilt eventually. Joey Burman, of
Chicago, will be the Frenchman's Wis
avis, or something like that. and the
foreigner will have no easy sailing. Bur
man is corking good two handed boxer
and, II Ledoux succeeds in getting by

style, he will be assured of match
with Champion Petey Herman.

One Of the big features Of the show il
the return meeting between George
Chaney, of Baltimore, and Joe Welling,
of Chicago. Their last meeting here
went down into history as one of the
most ferocious fracas ever witnessed at
Philadelphia club. Both connected
with terrific punches and several times
1t looked as If one or the other was on
the verge of knockout.
Another bantam star will 20 on in the
second bout. He is Carl Tremaine, the
