Chance at Wilson
Is Likely Reward
For Bout Winner
By w. O. Mcclellan

Mike ODowd, erstwhile middle we ght
champion, will box fifteen rounds to a
decision with Jeff Smith at Madison
Square Garden tonight. Ever since a
Eoston referee absent -mindedly slipped
his title to Johnny Wilson the local
sc uthpaw, Michael. has been clamoring
for return match. But Wilson stuffed
&C tton into his cars and became hard
OF hearing.
jeff Smith also has been trying to
talk Wilson into a match for the mid
dleweight championship, but Mr. Will
son has not been able to get his
signals. Consequently, Michael and
jeff. both being Of the disposition that
loves to mix, decided that they would
fight it cut for the privilege Of chat
longing the middleweight champion.
Hence the bout this evening.
Michael is popular boxer and a lot
OF his popularity is due to the fact that
he quit the ring for the trenches when
the United STATES got into tho world
quarrel. When Mike lost the title to
Wilson, through the referee having mis-
laid his glasses, there was talk Of not
recognizing the new champion, but
Michael knows that the only way to
get the title back is to tap Wilson on
the chin. Still it is hard to tap a gent
upon the chin when he will not go into
the same ring with you.

OF MARTENS

States is more suitable for inyesti
gauon and action" by the depart
ment of justice than by the senate
Chairman Moses of the senate sub
committee Investigating Russian pro-
paganda reported today.
The Moses report was made to the
senate foreign relations committee.
1t was not signed by any other
member of the subcommittee which
included Sem ators Borah, Idaho, and
Brandegee OF Connecticut, repubii-
cans; and Pittman, Nevada, anu
Shields, Tennessee. democrats.
The Moses subcommittee spent
many days interrogating Martens in
an effort to ascertain whether he
was conducting bolshevik propaganda
in the United States.
Martens is already under arrest on
a deportation warrant issued by the
department OF labor and his trial on
deportation charges is pending.
The Moses report held that Mar
tens has no diplomatic or official
status in this country, that he as
sumes to represent the Russian soviet
republic which has no standing as a
constituted authority in International
law; that he has received no official
or personal recognition from the
United States government; that he
is German subject enemy alien and
that although he has not been openly
engaged in advocating overthrow OF
this government, he has publicly as
sociated himself with groups which
do advocate such a course and ex-
his sympathy with them, ad-
mitted he is revolut1on1st and de-
clared his belief that 1t would be
better for this country if a soviet
were established here
The report referred to carefully
planned inocuousness of Martens
public activities" and mentioned "the
difficulty of separating Martens and
his activities from propaganda car
ried on for the purpose OF replacing
the existing government OF the Unit
ed States with sovietism." -..M
But it is difficult to believe" the
report continued, 'tthat a man with
Martens previous record involving
lifetime of, revolutionary activities
and with his declared quality of
revolutionist. now as always, could
have suddenly changed his entire
method of life through the simple
influence of an appoint
ment as diplomatic representative
and while on the face of the record
MS utterances and his personal ac-
hvities-shaped doubtless by COM
Detent advice, as well as by his own
previous experience-'bore superficial
evidence of a determination to act
correctly, the whole collateral deduc-
ion must be that his concealed
course was in line with that which
le has hitherto pursued, namely Of
hostility to the existing order wher-
'ver he has found himself.
aside from his own declarations |
