Vice President Marshall is sounding a warning as he goes over the country-a warning against our latter day tenden- cy of going to the government with all our troubles.
 If the price of wheat is be- low the cost of production, the wheat farmers want the government to protect them. If the price of cotton is below the cost of production, the cotton farmers want some as- sistance from Uncle Sam. The schools here and there ask for assistance. The result of all this is that the American peo- pie are beginning to think that the troubles are in the govern ment, not in themselves.
 America was built on the theory that the least possible government is the best. That is certainly true and our great institutions stand as a living example of that truth. Are we now to depart from the ways of our forefathers and become puppets to bureaus in Wash ington?
 If we keep on, 1t will not be long before a man will get up in the morning under direc- tions from bureau; his break fast will be prepared from a bureau cookbook; his horse will be fed from q bureau feed

Belief Now Becoming
General That Georges
Is Match for Champ

NEW YORK, Jan. 3O.-Tears that
welled up in some of the sport eyes when
Georges Carpenter hurled a defy at
the French idol looked over the pros
trate form Of Joe Beckett, dreaming
from the effects of four cannon punches,
and said Dempsey next" the wise ones
measured him for a coffin. But now
they are wondering what size hat he
wears, having developed something akin
to bunch, that new crown might have
to be ordered.
Since they saw their hope toppled over
in less than a round, English fans can't
see any one but Carpenter in the coming
fight. Charles B. Cochrane, London pro-
moter, voiced the sentiment of the Brit
ish when he said recently: Carpenter
is conceded a slender chance by Ameri-
cans, but l have seen him in action and
l am inclined to believe he needs no
sympathy"
Fred Fulton and Joe Jeanette, two
!, American heayies, recently declared that
the Frenchman possessed a right dan
gerous for any man and was skillfUl
enough to take care of himself against
the best Of hitters. Jack McAuliffe the
retired indicated lightweight champion,
is another American who believes the
fans should not rush for flowers to toss
in the ring as sympathy tokens for the
poor Frenchman. Lee says:
Carpenter will surprise everybody.
He's a perfect fighting machine, clever
on the defense and a dangerous hitter
with both hands. The longer the fight
goes the bigger chance he will have TO
win"

sought to have set aside the decision by
Justice Wagner, several months ago,

venting johnson from suspending the

The case was the outgrowth Of an
alleged rebellious act OF Mays last sum
ner. While pitching for the Boston Red
Sox he quit the club and, after re-
naming away for several weeks, was
sold to the Yankees for a sum said to
have been around $4,000. After he had
reported TO the New York club he was
suspended indefinitely by the league
president who claimed he was forced to
this disciplinary measure because the
Boston club failed to punish Mays for
his act The Yankees applied for an
Injunction. which was granted by Justice
Wagner and Mays finished the season
with the Yankees.

heard in the appellate division. The de-
cision today affirmed the temporary in

Butler VS.. DePauw

The fast DePauw five will meet Butler
in the Irvington gym tonight in the
return game Of their two game series
DePauw won by a decisive score last
time, but the locals are playing upon
their home floor and have hopes Of max
ing q good showing against the Metho-
dists. To even hold the visitors close
score would be creditable considering the
past records of the invaders.
Coach Head sent his squad through a
long workout yesterday and at the
windnp held u scrimmage session with
the scrubs, using DePauw formations and
tactics The seconds were able to pene-
trate the varsity defense time after time
for field goals, but were weak upon their
defense and the varsity led, "a to 16,
at the end Of the twenty-minute session.
Unless the varsity holds the DePauw
aggregation to a low score Butler will
have little chance of winning as it is
not strong enough upon the offense to
outplay the Tiger guards.
