Says U. $. Senate's Action on Treaty
 Purely Political

Paris, March 25.-Commenting on the rejection of the Versailles treaty by the United States senate. Captain Andre Tardieu, writing in L'Illustration, says:
 "It was a political campaign con- ducted for a political aim by politi- cal means. The aim was to deprive President Wilson and the democratic party of power.
 However, the treaty of Versailles remains integrally in force and the league of nations remains consti- tuted. No matter how great the regret one feels at the absence of the United States, nothing is lacking in the right of either thee treaty or the league of nations to live and func- tiOn,"

TOMORROW MIGHT BE
 CALLED ROXING DAY

Three big bouts tomorrow night will undoubtedly give the day additional at traction to local boxing devotees. Two of these ring contests might be called of local interest only, while the third is of national importance, the big Demfpsey- Brennan battle.
 The bout nearest home is the Brady Boorde event at the B. A. c. Local fans will no doubt watch with interest the outcome of the tilt between these two Birmingham boys. In addition to this bout. Deuette Alfred and John Russo will meet at the B. A. c. also.
 The second bout of importance to local bugs is the Bailey White affair, which will be staged in Atlanta. Ala bama< fans arc strong for White, as he is home boy and is doing well in box ing. In fact, many are picking him to win the heavyweight champion one of these days.
 The last bout is the Dempsey-Bren- nan affair, which. of course, attracts the interest due a great national event of its kind.
 Dempsey Is the popular champion and doubtless he will have the well wishes of the majority of the fans when he fights the challenger tomorrow night.
 If White whips Bailey in Atlanta,
 there may be several good bouts
 lined up for hin. The Tuscaloosa
