AMERICA WON'T Join
The INTERNATIONAL
union OF BOXING

NEW YORK. Jan. 30--hmcr!ca Will
not br represented at a meeting of the
International Boxing Union to be held
at Paris. on February 5. This union.
nm organization which aims at securing
absolute control of boxing throughout
the world sent an invitation 10 the
army, navy and civilian board of box
ing control. with headquarters in thR
city To send representative 10 the con,
ference. This. however. was not deemed
advisable and after due consideration OF
articles framed in France the following
reply was Cabled:
"ReplyinG TO and thanking you for
your invitation to this board to attend
TO inform you this board does not feel
Justified in sending representatives for
this decision Is based on article one OF
the laws drafted by you for the control
Of boxing throughout the world. This
article declares that members OF The
proposed union shall have one vote for
each country which is represented.
America, having FIVE worlds cham
pions. IS cQuitably entitled To more than
a Voting equality with Switzerland. Ar
gsntine. Norway, Holland, Italy. Bclg-
ium. Greece and other countries where
boxing is almost non-eNistent. This
board has no desire TO dictate terms
for formation Of an international union,
but It cannot support an organization
which awards sevcnty-flre percent of
the voting powers 10 countries where
aggregate only five percent Of the
worlds boxing.
An association. IN the framing Of
the constitution of which the two great
est boxing countries had no voice. is
for"d"rmcd to failure. Suggests formal
ton of new body on equitable basis.
Conventions might be held in France or
elsewhere. but headquarters should be IN

The resolutions adopted by the mem

the new spirit and new ideals that are
more and more finding their way into
business life. These resolutions look to
the future: TO the development OF the
state: to the bettermcnt Of our citizen
ship and to the improvement Of tho re-
lations between capital and labor.
Specifically. they declared for good
roads: for the liberal support Of the
hospitals and humane institutions.
They endorsed the Workmen's Compen-
sation law. and suggested 10 employers
as individuals the wisdom OF making
provision to protect and care for EN-
ployes through sickness and disability.
From a body. representative OF so many
various interests. and so many different
individuals. as the Manufacturers
Association. great divergence Of Views
upon questions like these was bound TO
arise. and yet the discussion OF these
resolutions throughout. indicated a
breadth Of vision and a willingness to
accept new and progressive ideas that
was commeadable in every respect.
