Sixty Years to Pay War Debts

Senator Watson Of Indiana (por-
trait herewith) advocates extension Of
time for the payment of the war debt
over a period of 60 years. He urges
that to tighten the tax burden. Re-
peal of the excess profits tax and re-
duction of the surtaxes on large In
comes also are urged by him.
Senator Watson's declaration for
the extension Of the time for payment
is presumably significant as showing
a decided drift of opinion among the
Republican leaders. 1t has been the
program of the treasury department
to pay up the war debt within 20
years.

BEST AGE OF HEAVYWEIGHTS
Fighters Begin to Go Back at 27 or %
and Roll OFF on Passing 80,
Says the Dope.

They say Jack Dempsey is better
now than he will be a year hence.
Heavyweights are said to be at their
best at the age Of twenty-six. They
start going back at twenty-seven or
twenty-eight and roll off on passing
thirty. A list of champions of the
past proves this. The list follows:
John L. Sullivan at the age of thIr-
ty-four was knocked out by Jim Cor
bett.
Jim Corbett was thirty-seven when
he was knocked out by Fitzsimmons.
Fitzsimmons was thirty-seven when
he kissed the canvas at Coney Island
and Jim Jeffries was made champion.
Jim Jeffries was thirty-fve when
Jack johnson put the skids under him
at Reno.
Jack Johnson was thirty-seven when
he played the dying gladiator to Jess
Willard at Havana, Cuba.
Willard claims that he was thirty
two years of age when Dempsey
dropped him at Toledo.
Thirty seems to be the dangerous
age.
