SAFEGUARDING BOXING.

The city commission took a step in the right d-
recton by putting in ordinance for the control of
boxing contests stringent requirements which the
fighters and promoters must meet. Albuquerque has
suffered too long from fake fights 1t does not mat
ter whether not the fights are staged within the
town. The city should do everything possible to safe
guard what can be made good clean sport.
Under the old system, the commission virtually
stopped boxing within the city limits At the time,
the action wise. Things at so low stage
in the boxing game that only total prohibition would
drive out the crowd of hangers-on who staging
worthless bouts.
Now the atmosphere has probably cleared lit
tie. There will be a new deal, at least. 1t would
seem wise for the city to attempt to control bouts
z in the city and make it possible for such bouts to
be staged within the city limits and Under police
control rather than force them TO DC held in the out
skirts of the town with control and with no as
r surance that decent exhibits will be staged.
The ordinance starts right. 1t requires that
8 the promoter get permit from the chief of police
for each entertainment. Chief Galusha knows the
( difference between a faker and sportman. If he
is unaequainted with individual, Captain Pat
%oGrady usually serve character witness"
= The department will shortly know who is who in
boxing circles in Albuquerque. If it does not know
salready.
Naturally the police department will have more
less knowledge of the ability of the fighters. 1t
will know when good fight is probable and when a
flake" is being planned. 1t can be relied upon to
"refuse permits for poor fights. 1t demand from
the promoters high standard of bouts
The next step is for the police department to keep
"black book" Whenever a fighter fails to stand
up and do his best his should be entered in
the book and no permit should be issued for any
fight in which he may hereafter desire to be par
ticipant. If the boxer knew this when he entered
the ring he would fail to perform "Snappy Jack"

If there to be boxing contests all around Albu-
querque to which the youth of Albuquerque GER

in and stop battle whenever it descends to braw

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, Aug. 4.-Lquidating
sales that were ascribed to a prom
inent New York trader had much
to do today with bringing about q
material setback in the price OF
wheat The market closed unset
tied l%c to 2Ac net lower with
September $1.21A to s1.21k and
December $1.24A to $1.24h. Corn
lost 1sc to 5sc to &c to &c and
oats &c to 12c to &c and provi-
sions sc to 40c.
The New Yorker who was gen.
orally believed to have led the sell
ing of wheat is said to have beer
free buyer at higher prices
With other longs also letting go
and with consolidated pressure
from hedging sales, the market
proved weak most of the day. Per
sistent slowness of export demand
counted as a notable factor in de-
veloping bearish sentiment and so
too, did gossip that spring wheat
farmers were likely to sell heavily
as soon as threshing allowed. Con-
siderable export business in wheat
appeared to develop on the breaks
but on the other hand an opinion
was prevalent that much of the
recent big European demand for
corn was to use that grain instead
of wheat for human consumption
Increased rural offerings had a
bearish effect on corn. Continued
heavy receipts weakened oats.
Provisions were pulled down by
sympathy with grain and hogs.

FOREIGN PROPAGANDA.

The knights of Columbus at their annual nation
al meeting, have decided to make war on all forms
of foreign propaganda in the United States.
America knew nothing of these organized efforts
to create sentiment in the United States until we
became involved in the Great War. Then 1t was
discovered that Germany had been spending unseen
millions of dollars in the United States in subtle
and systematic effort to make public sentiment here
what they wished it to be. This great tribute
to the immense power welded by public sentiment
but it was also a great shock to the American peo-
pie to learn that they thus being buncoed.
Our own organized effort to sell" the war to
the American people gave first real eye-opener
as to the power of systematic and pre-arranged
propaganda
Then came the effort at bolshevist propaganda
to overthrow established government here. 1t was
rendered abortive by counter propaganda
and by the strong of the law.
Now we told of Irish propaganda and British
propaganda and Japanese propaganda. All varieties
flourish here according to reports. Some are real
and some, no doubt, are fanciful.
However, for some body of strong men to set
themselves the task of watching for movements from
abroad calculated to control American sentiment is
a good thing, if properly handled OF course the
anti-propagandist easily become star propa-
gandst of his own fad. We must remain sane but
watchful.
We need to be mindful that such movements do
not mperil the right of free speech. 1t is better to
allow false doctrines to thrive by repetition than to
strange free speech in America.
In freedom of speech lies only safety. In
fluences home developing which would throttle
it by force coersion conspiracy in order to pro-
tect their special privileges and private snaps
Propaganda against freedom of speech is propa-
ganda's most dangerous form.

At the soldier-like command the

windows and pressed the balls in
their paws,
''Whizz! Whizz! Squirt" Out
shot four streams of water against
four windows. the water running
down the panes in little streams as
when 1t rains.
"Oh, this is fun" cried Peetie,
as he squirted some water side

Billie. Wash the windows, not

"All right" parked Peetie. "I've

PUTTING UP THE PEACH.

Cold Pack Peaches: Hlanch the
peaches by lowering Them inso
boiling water, by means of a cheese
cleth bag, from l TO minutes. then
dip them RAPIDLY in-o cold wafer
their skins so that they may be
removed easIly. Now haive the
peaches, remove the pits, and put
them into hot, sterilized jars with
boiling hot medium thick syrup
made by boiling quarts Of water
and quarts of sugl" together TO-
10 minutes. Partially seal the Jars
and place them on a rack in your
wash boiler, letting the water boil
up around them for 16 minutes.
Then completely seal, invert to test
for leaks, and store.
Sweet Picked Peaches: Boil to-
gether for 20 minutes 2 pounds of
brown sugar, pint of vinegar and
ounce of stick cinnamon. Re-
move skins from 1-2 peck of peach
es by blanching them as described
above, then stick each skinned peach
with 4 cloves; drop these into the
prepared syrup and let boil until
the fruit is soft. Pack rather close
ly In hot, sterilized glass jars, pour
the hot sprup in to within 1-2 inch
of jar top, place on sterilized glass
caps, and seal tightly at once.
Label and store.

the housewife who has never COM
bined the peach with other fruit to
try this recipe. Buy / pineapple

Scald 7 pounds of peaches IN boil-
ing water to remove skins, as de-
scribed above, then halve, remove
rits, and cut into thin slices. Pare
and remove the eyes from 1-2 pine
apple, then crate it into a bowl;
aid this grated pineapple, with its
juice, to the sliced peaches and
place this mixed fruit IN the pre-
serving kettle alternately with IA
pounds of granulated suga- Let
the fruit and sugar stand in this
way in a cool place for hours, to
draw out the juices. then place the
kettle over the fire and simmer
for as minutes, or until thick, stir

Peach Jelly: Peaches contain
very little OF that element, "Pect-
in" which makes jellies jell. For
this reason 1t is necessary to add
to the peach juice a little home-
made pectin made in the following
way:
Home Made Pectin: Buy thick
skinned oranges and pare off the
yellow outside. The pectin is con-
tanned in the white under-part of
this yellow skin. so get every bit of

When Dick asked me IL his love

that it did-and l meant it, 1t
counted very much. But l couldn't
see what that had to do with maxi
ing money enough to give me 9TH

able to go out into the world and

that a woman could be a good
business woman, even If she was
supposed to be simply home
maker. But l knew absolutely
nothing of business, save what I
had picked up in random way
from Dick and Clara Watson. In

they were.

Stowell asked me to ride with her
in the park. Something she said
about Dicks father made me feel
so embarrassed that l offered to
return her the $3.50 she had loaned
me. I said nothing Of the legacy
Dicks father had left him, but
tried to make her think it was
money I had saved.
Don't be silly, Nan! You know
I don't need that money; that l
shouldn't give it thought If you
never paid it, Some day when
Dick takes advantage of his posi-
ton and is millionaire I may
feel glad to have you return 1t.

New York. Aug. Achievements
on the stock exchange today were
narrow and hesitating. Trading
was light, and tentative efforts to
bring about a resumption of yes
terday's decline met with no great
err success shan attempts toward a
swing. Transactions amounted to
100000 shares.
The opening was irregular with
an easier tendency which soon de-
veloped into a definite downward
movement. Further profit taking
in railroad shares which were
marked up earlier in the week
was accompanied by pressure at
other points, including American
Sugar, Central Leather. General
Electric, Uuited Drug and Ameri-
can Locomotive. There were no
large offerings and the market
eased off and the decline was soon
checked. Short covering and re-
newed buying of rails brought
about stiffening of the list, but
in the late dealings selling was re-
newed and the closing was heavy.
Motor shares were conspicuous.
Under the lead of Studebaker they
were bid up confidently on the
early rise, achieving some substan-
tial gains, although their best
prices were not maintained. Pierce
Arrow shares were exceptions. The
preferred was forced down four
points on the late decline.
High money rates constituted a
deterrent factor in trading for the
long account. After renewing at
~, call money advanced to per
cent as compared with a low rate
of 31a last week.
A feature was the strength of
foreign exchange. sterling, francs
and lire were particularly strong.
Sterling advanced nearly 4 cents.
In the bond market there was
some slackening of the demand for
railroad and industrial issues. Va
rious lines reflected profit taking
but there was a good absorption OF
convertible issues. Prices In the
main showed moderate steadiness'
