without cause the Republic of Haiti,
usurping all governmental functions
and through Marines numbering dur
ing the course of five years of Amcri
can occupation more than 5000 Hal
tians was the publication in 1921 of
the investigation made by this Assoc
citation. Since these facts were first
brought in to the light, tho ASsociat-
ion has worked INCREASINGLY for Il Con
srcssional investigation, as it was
felt strongly that only in this man
ner could the real faces be secured,
The official whitc-wash Of the action OF
the Marines which investigation
was made by the | Officers Of
the Navy at the direction or
Josephus Daniels, at that time Sc.
rotary of the Navy, served only to
increase the feeling among ;yhc Haiti
ans and others of our ncighbors to
the South of us, that the American
Government and the American people
endorsed the vicious explorations OF
weaker Republic.
Every American who wishes to SEQ

TAKING y CHANCE

Tho champion however, is taking Il
chance and II fairly wide one, bn3,as
the argument on the record OF his ure
vious three encounters with the Cam
bridge coiorcd warrior. The w;;tcr
saw Robson defeat Wilson ut the Corr
merical a. &. in " rounds in 1877,
the colored man winning the decision
OF the referee by goodly margin.
Wilson at that time was lighter and
much less experienced chan ut pres
cnt. In 1919 Robinson encountered vii
son in Il IL roundcr, no decision, in
Bangor, Me-, the contest going the
full distance. Robinson was liked by
many as tho victor. On December 8,
1920, Wilson took Il chance with his
title in fighting Robinson in Montreal
Canada and was twice sent to tho
canvas by the colorcd man. The Mon
treal sport writers declared Robinson
the winner, which must have been
correct, for Il c0lorcd ringSter must
have big edge over II white oppon.
