BRITAIN AND ]. 5.
IN BOXING UNION

The prospect OF an international
boxing alliance between this country
and Great Britain, in the event that
French boxing authorities assume "a
dictatorial attitude" in their prosecu-
ton OF the plans adopted by the pro-
posed International Boxing Union
were disclosed by Major Anthony j
Drexei Biddle. president of the army
navy and civilian board OF boxing con-
troll. The British board Of boxing
control favors such an alliance. which
will be known as an Anglo American
alliance, and which will conduct its
affairs independently of the Interna =
tional boxing union. which will or
ganize at a meeting in Paris. Senti-
ment of the American governing box
ing body, and followers of the sport
generally, Is in favor of such an alii-
ance regardless OF what action is taken
by the French authorities at their
meeting.
Major Biddie disclosed the prospec-
tive -AHgie-AHaeFieaH -. Alliance in
making public a cablegram he had re-
ceiyed from Lord Longsdale, president
of the British board Of boxing con-
troll The English peer. answering a
recent cabiegram in which the Amer
lean officials declined the invitation to
tHe FRENCH conceive and registered a
protest against the inequality OF its
aims, advised that the French authori-
ties were prepared to make a eonces-
sion with regard to the l. b. rs vot-
ing rule, which would provide ten
votes each for America, France and
England. and one or two for other
countries in accordance with their rel
alive Importance in boxing activities.
This concession came as response to
the objection OF American officials TO
the original plan which provided that
each country be permitted one vote in
the conduct OF International Boxing
union affairs. British boxing officials
conceded with the American attitude
in this respect. but. AT The Same time
offered to safeguard Americas inter-
ests in the event that the ten-vote
plan appealed to supporters of boxing
in this country.
