hitting the Germans to escape all the
obligations which defeat laid upon
them In the next hree weeks you
will see this country realize the OBJ
loquy of such a stand by the party
of Lincoln, McKinle" and Roosevelt.
"The first prominent Republican to
resent it publicly, l learn, is Herbert
ii c in Congress. He has decided to
support the league by the only prac-
tics means This does credit to his
patti iotism and convictions. We well
come him, fighting with US for a eau Sc
beyonI partisanship. There will be
many more"
Senator Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock, de-
fcated Tor the leadership of his own
state b. Colonel William J. Bryan,

as follows:
On your reply you made severa

"Mr. Wadsworth voted in the Senate
against the woman suffrage amendment

conformity with the Republican ma

of settling the matter by their own

If ACK M'AULIFFE, one time ring 0 idol, unable to further stand the heaps of caustic criticism directed to- ward Jack Dempsey on the ground that he is one champion without defense, rises to remark that maybe Jack will not need defense when he fights Georges Carpenter, the doughty French boy.
 T don't like the manner in which Dempsey is criticized by the so-called experts for his lack of defense," Me. Auliffe asaid the other day, @"chiefly because think the fans ought to stick with a champion until he is whipped. Maybe Dempsey has no de- fense, and grant that he hasn't, who has the authority to say that he will need one when he faces the French titleholder?'
 McAuliffe points to the fact that Dempsey's work in the ring to date shows that he works like a tiger with great speed and force. The vet eran also points to Dempsey's record in his bouts against Carl Morris, Fred Fulton, Battling Levin sky and Jess Willard as proving that defense is never necessary where blows carry the crushing power that seems to characterize Dempsey's offerings.
 Ut is perfectly all right for the critics to analyze Dempsey's ring work, but I cannot understand how they figure defense is going to be needed against Carpentier, especially.

Noted Old Car Entered Here
 For Auto Race

One -of the cars entered in the auto day, May 1. has a very enviable record to its credit.
 It was one of the three Maxwells that were built for the Indianapolis races in 1915 and was driven in that national event by Eddie Rickenbacher, who since that time has become the American flying ace in the late war. This car in 1916 won the worlds nonstop record in Los Angeles with that veteran driver, Barney Oldfield, a t the wheel, making a total distance of 2.223 3-10 miles in twen- ty-three days, the motor never having stopped in that time.
 In 1917, with Dave Koetzla at the wheel. it broke the worlds hour record at Detroit, Mich. The car is still very active" and was entered in many races of the southern circuit of fairs last fall. It was twice a money win ner in the southeastern sweepstakes at Atlanta.
 The car is now In possession of Leslie Allen, who, before his services over seas, was a prominent figure around the speedways and road courses of the north and west, and Is out this year for whatever money that he may be lucky enough to win from the dirt tracks this season.
 Allen has entered the car in the races that are being staged by the Birming- ham lodge of Elks for the benefit of their charity fund and announces that he car will arrive in Birmingham the fl first part of next week.
