Dempsey Not Popular.

While Carpenter is personally popu-
lar here, Dempsey probably would not
be well received on account of his war
record. Britons feel keenly on that
matter, and as 1t is conceded that
Dempsey would probably defeat Car
pentier, the sports do not see why
they should help the American to gain
victory. In substance, If America
does not want the fight, England does
not.
Carpenters action at the Beckett
Moran contest did not tend to popular
ize the proposed battle. Previous to
Moran and Beckett beginning their
battle, Carpenter entered the ring. was
greeted with loud cheers and announced
his desire to- meet the winner. He
specified that he would fight the win
ner previous to his match with Demp-
sey. After Moran defeated Beckett the
Pittsburger sought Carpenter and asked
fer a match. Carpenter gave his con-
sent but Francois Descamps took all
the JOY out of the affair by assuring
Moran that Carpenter would require
the same compensation as guaranteed
him for a bout with Dempsey. namely,
$500. 900. Also $4,000 for his share of
the movies
Moran replied that there was not that
much money in England. He added
that he could defeat Carpenter If he
got the chance, but did not think he
would be able to induce Georges to
sign any kind of articles except those
calling for an ice cream eating contest.
Britons would like to see Moran and
Carpenter in the ring, but can't under
stand why the Freedman should not
make a match on reasonable terms.
International Political gossip is to the
effect that Carpenter has been the
agent of France in promoting friendly
relations with America. But diplomats
fear that. after the experiences of
Willard. Fulton, Miske and Brennan
with Dempsey, Carpenter has small
chance OF being second Lafayette.
This opinion was strengthened by the
ominous booing in Albert Hall follow
ing the knockout of Beckett by Moran.
The New York herald., 1920-12-25

avoided ~
In addition, since Frank Moran ad-
initteaiy a second rate American pugil-
,st isn ulsposed OF Joe Beckett, the Eng
lish champion, in such easv fashion :.
feeling has arisen here that Carpenter
is no match for Dempsey. Britons
judged of the merits of Carpenter
largely through his quick victory over
beckett. and the Briton at that time
was regarded as real champion. But
since the aged Pittsburger dropped
Beckett with a jolt that caused the
walls In Albert Hall to tremble, Brit
ishers realize that Beckett was over
rated. They also revised their opinions
as to Carpenter. The sporting element
mere are fed up on short heavyweight
fights. and they do not desire to see
foreign fighter earn in one round
thirty times the annual salary of the
Prime Minister.

Conduit Road Citizens Fear
Encroachment on Yards
and Homes.

A plan put forward in an address
by Lieut. Col. Charles W. kutz. En-
gineer Commissioner for the District
of Columbia, to widen Conduit road
from Foxall road north to the res
ervoir was vigorously opposed at p
special meeting of the Conduit Road
Citizens Association last night IN
the parish hall of Our Lady of Vic
tory Church.
The meeting was called by the as
sociation to consider WAYS and
means of widening the road to avoid
inconvenience to pedestrians. and
particularly to prevent danger of
harm to children VINO have to go
school along Conduit road. which at
this point has no sidewalks
Col. Kutz, in his address, told the
association the District of Columbia
would be able to widen the road
to thirty-six feet and put down side
walks and cutters on each side if
the property owners on each side of
the road would dedicate five feet OF
ground to be used for this purpose
This was vigorously opposed by
the association. only two members
favoring Col. kutz's plan. Col Kutz
told the association that widening
of the lower end of Conduit road
between Foxall road and the first
gate of the reservoir to ninety fee
was out of the question. He said i.
would be too expensive to property
owners and would involve the ex-
penditure of too much money on a
single strip of road by the District
His substitute plan provided that
one-half of the cost of putting down
sidewalks and cutters would be borne

PLEA FOR RED CROSS MEN.
Russian Soviet Asked to Free Four
Held in Siberia.

The Russian soviet government has
been requested to release the four
American Red Cross workers recently
captured in Siberia by the bolsheviki
according to a statement just issued
by national Red Cross headquarters
in this city and based on cable
gram from Vladivostok representa-
tives of the relief organization.
The request for release was trans
mitted through the Czechs. The
Vladivostok personnel is optimistic
over the chances for the release OF
these prisoners because reports from
newly conquered territory in Siberia
indicate that the reds have now
adopted a rather liberal policy re-
garding their captives.
The names of the prisoners, who are
not believed to be in any danger. are

Slxty-four instances of attacks de-
railments and dynamiting of trains in

today. The instances reported were
Chiefly in the northern part of the
country and on the Mexican line be-
tween Mexico City and Vera Cruz and
the 1sthmus line.
., Result OF Rebel Activities,
sfhe report makes a point of the
fact that the greater number of these
wrecks resulted from rebel activities
occ0frjng during the first half of the
year, fpd officials here regard this as
DUE to ythe refusal of the United States
to pepnit shipments of arms and mu-
ntiens. including dynamite into Mexi-
CO during the second half of the year.
The decreases in number of these out
RACES was credited in the report, how
ever, to changes in the personnel of
the railroad administration, the ap-
pointment of Gen. Manager Fontes to
handle the railroads and his activities
on inspection trips in various parts of
the country.
The building of a series of block
City line occupied by soldiers is given
as a reason for the decrease on that
