n ECENTLT one Of the NEST
N prominent. and best known
boxing critics OF the country sur
prfsed the padded mitt circle with
a wen timed story concerning the
boxer who kills the goose that
laid the golden egg.
One Of HIS points upon which
particular emphasis was placed
concerned the mitt Singer who
boxed under the name OF q man
more famous and whose name he
adopted purely for the reason OF
attracting additional money into
the box office The fans saw the
name on tie card went In TO Wit
ness the pseudo scrapper in action
and they were both nEErieved and
disappointed when they did not
see the show they expected. IN
the southwest boxers are too wen
known for this TO be practiced,
but FL Pas0 BUGS are getting to
Eether, as they want to hold on TO
their favorife puncher1 whom II
seems are being claimed b. other
cities.
Phoenix. Arizona, is a bit hasty
in this matter. Recently, IN a re-
port sent out from the Arizona
city, they claimed Tommy Carter
as a Phoenix product. Inciden-
tally. the Phoenix acrlben Laid

fans are undoubtedly making
their claims in all earneHfneaH,
and a. a matter OF fact they are
welcome 20 all Of the wrestlerH
they want. But claiming Tommy
Carter and frankie Fovvser is 60
ing too fnr. They can't have 'em.

BY JUSTIN II. FORREST,

CHICAGO, June 10.-Final agree
ment upon all the proposed planks
in the 1920 Republican platform
except those touching the League OF
Nations and the Mexican situation
has been reached by the special
steering committee of thirteen, and
indicates a middle of the road
policy on the part Of the party.
Denounces Wilson.
Bitter denunciation of the Wilson
Administration Is the gist OF the pre-
amble to the platform, In which the
question of a soldiers bonus 10 Con
fined to high praise Of the work of
the soldiers and a citation that the
, present Congress has appropriated
generously for the disabled OF the
world war"
Defeat of Governor Aliens indus
trial court plank. which was forecast
yesterday, was accomplished In the
steering committee, but the plank
adopted. on the other hand, Is not al
broad as that demanded by Samuel
Gompers and the American Fedora
tion of Labor in the hearing before
! the committee.
As regards the railroads and public
utilities. the plank urges the estab-
lishment of a tribunal to investigate
and make decisions. to prevent tyins
up service. The decision of these
tribunals should be morally. but not
legally" binding. Tribunals should
refuse to accept jurisdiction except
for investigating purposes SO long as
service is interrupted or men are or
strike.
In regard to Mexico, 1t seemed pret-
ty certain the steering committee
would get together on a plank which
practically would endorse the report
of the Fall investigating committee
which recommended the policing OF
Mexico until there Is a return to nor
NAL conditions in the country. New
Mexican interests also are insisting
that the plank include a declaration
that the United States will recognize
no government in Mexico which can.
not give complete assurance OF pro.
lection to foreigners.
Here are summaries of the planks
agreed upon by the steering COM
mittee:
Agriculture-Approv J right OF
farmers to form cooperative societies
