League of Nations Topic
At Commerce Luncheon
British Parliamentary Secretary
Sees Hope Of ''Creat Ideal"
Rein0 Realized

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The British gov
ernment gave luncheon at the Carl
ton Hotel yesterday in honor Of dele
gates from the United States to the
International Chamber Of Commerce.
F. G. KeIlaway, Parliamentary secre-
tary of the Overseas Trade Depart
ment, who presided, said the idea OF
establishing an international chamber
OF commerce was great one, but
asked, "Why not also league of ma
tions?"
1t was not for him to make sugges-
tions to them on that point, he added
Americans would resent it Just as deep
ly as the people o. this country would
resent any attempt on the part Of
America to interfere with out home
politics-for example, on the question
would come when it ould be realized
on both sides of the Atlantic that all
energies should be devoted to putting
into practice the great ideal" underly-
ing the League of Nations.
G.. T. Blow, in reply, said the whole
Of the movement in trade was in the
direction of cooperation, and the Inter
national Chamber of Commerce would
be Of the grsatest value.
The American Ambassador, John W.
Davis, spoke of the pleasure it gave him
to see SO many assistant ambassadors
of the United States. While statesmen
made plans and diplomats assisted
them, he said, it was by the work of the
men Of commerce and trade in the great
| field of international commerce that
the peace and good will Of the world
could best be secured.

Delay in Issuing Licenses
May Postpone Boxing Season

The open season for the caulflower
ears may be delayed somewhat, accord
ing to a statement issued by the new
Boxing Commission yesterday. The
sense Of the statement is that all
matches announced and all officials
selected for the same have not the au-
thorization of the board as yet.
The statement reads:
"The Boxing Commission and the Ii
cense committee are now legally in
being and will proceed with their or
ganization under the provisions Of the
law. The first and vital part of the
work is to be done by the license COM
mittee. They must give careful con-
sidcration to the hundreds Of applica-
tions from corporations, deputies,
judges. physicians, referees, boxers,
etc. The license committee realizes
that the success of boxing under the
Walker bill depends upon the most
careful selection of this personnel.
at must be said, therefore, that the
fixing of dates and the announcing Of
officials by promoters is without au-
thority, and the commission trusts that
no further public announcements will
be made as to dates for holding con-
tests or individuals to offciate. 1t
must be distinctly understood that no
contest can be held nor can officials
act, until such time as licenses and
permits have been granted. The license
committee may not be pressed beyond
orderly legal procedure.
"The provisions of the law, which it
is proposed literally and rigidly to en-
force, do not permit our starting up
over night, as we must confer with the
Attorney General of the state for con-
struction of leases upon premises to be
occupied for boxing contests and with
the State Treasurer and the State
Comptroller in setting up the machin-
cry for collecting the states share of
the receipts"
Which would seem to indicate that
the caulifiower ear season can not be
rushed
According to Jack Curley, who is col
laborating with the international Sport
ing Club in the promotion of the Car
pentier-L -Levinsky bout at Ebbets Field
in October, the match positively will
be put on as announced. Curley cabled
to Francois Deschamps, manager for
Carpenter, to learn if 1t were true that
there were other contracts that would
interfere. To which Carpenters maas4

Navy Triurnphs
In First Heat of
Olympic Race
Americans Are Hot Favorites
to Win Final Grew Honors
i'm Belgium Regatta
By Arthur S. Draper

Special Cable to The Tribune
Copyright. 1920, New York Tribune Inc.
BRUSSELS, Aug. 27.-Rowing low
but with tremendously powerful
stroke, the Navy crew, representing
America in the Olympic Regatta, won
an easy victory over Belgium to-day
In the first heat of the race for the
worlds championship.
The Midshipmen negotiated the
mile and quarter in six minutes and
twenty-six seconds, only seven sec
onds slower than the British, who
were pushed hard all the way by the
Swiss Continental champions and won
by less than a quarter of boat
length.
What the Americans will do when
forced by stiff competition is impos-
sible to say, but it is certain that they
can beat the time made by England to-
day without great difficulty
To-day's trials proved conclusively
that the confidence of the American
camp was fully justified. The Naval
Academy men simply swept the river
and by their wonderful performance
established themselves as strong favor
ties for first honors in the finals.

among the crowd which lined both sides
of the canal from the start to the
finish.
The avidity with which the foreign
ers seized any odds to back the Amer
ican entry showed that the prowess of
our crew is no secret. A five franc
parimutual wager on the navy crew
brought the munificient sum Of twenty
five centimes.
The popularity of the American crew
was contagious, for the referee used
an American launch and the Belgium
band made o brave and fairly success
full effort to play a bit of jazz.
Jack Kelly, Of Philadelphia, wearing
his famous little green cap, was the
first American winner, drawing a Swede
as his opponent in the single sculls
trial and winning easily in the fastest
time of the day.
Immediately after this race Kelly re
turned to the course to start in the
doubles race with his cousin, Costello
They proved to be the class of thu
