alton. i the men are ready 60 box on
March IL that will be the date"
The Dempsey-Willard bout at the
current wr,tlng seems to be attracting
quite as much attention as The Demp-
sey-Carpentier bout. When Dempsey
battered down Willard at Toledo the
bugs would have howled at the thought
OF return match. But then came the
Dempaey-Brennan thing and the cham.
pion that looked so rmidable at To-
ledo began to look trifle less formida-
BILE, and even a bit foolish.
In the meantime Willard has been
living an open air life, keeping fit and
hrooding over his defeat with eli the
savagery OF somewhat dull mind. OF
course he will be almost two years
older when he faces Dempsey, but he
will not be taken by surprise. And he
will examine very carefully the band
ages that Dempsey may wear when he
faces him.
Dempsey TO Train I'm Open
Jack Kearns seemed by no means de-
pressed over the little shifting about
Ut the fortunes of himself and his
champion. He denied that Dempsey's
ear had been reduced to the caulifower
stage by Bill Brennan In that Garden
meeting. Also he insisted that the
champion was saddSr and wiser gent
since the bout with the staunch old
pork and benner.
aThis time Dempsey will train in the
open," said Kearns. she will be the
same man that he was when he dropped
Willard. am quite certain that he
will drop him just as rapidly when he
meets him again. They never come
back"
Mr.. Kearns intimated that he was
anxious to get all the little minor half
million-doliar and hundred thousand
dollar matters cleared up so that he
and the heavyweight champion might
start making some real money, or
words to that effect.
"There is much jack anywhere and
everywhere for u.s." said Mr.. Kearns.
"If these things are not going to be
pulled Off on schedule would like to
know it so that the champion and my
self can start making real money"

Fine OF $4,000
And Prison Term
For Ball BriI,ers
From a atae Correspondents

ALBANY, Jan. 31.--A bill intended "a
prevent in this state repetitions OF
last years baseball scandal was in-
troduced in the. Legislature tonight
by Senator Frederick W. Kavanaugh. Of
Saratoga, and Assemblyinan John 2.
Merrigan, of Albany. If the measure Is.
enacted any person convicted of oIs8
fering bribes to baseball players may
be punished by q fne of not more than
$4,000 or imprisonment for not less
than one and not more than five years,
or both. The same provisions apply TO
baseball players found guilty of ae-
cepting bribes.
The measure has the backing Of a
number of persons prominent in the
baseball fraternity, including John J.
Evers, manager of the Chicago Ma
tionals. In a letter to Senator Kava-
naugh Eyers says.
'.The proposed legislation should be
accepted by all clean sport followers
as a step in the right direction, Lar
ticularly as far as it touches upon our
great national game-baseball."
Senator Kavanaugh and Assembly
man Merrigan are considering sugges
tions of having the bill embrace all
sports, both professional and amateur.
Its object" said the two legislators
in joint statement issued tonight, ais
to protect sports and particularly base
ball from the harmful and corrupting
influence of gamblers. A similar bill
is now before the Ohio Legislature.
Because of disclosures in the recent
grand jury investigation in Chicago
there has been widespread demand,
particularly from men closely asso-
ciated with the game, for legislation
which would not alone tend to deter
plsyers from making crooked agree
ments, but which, especially, would
prevent the gambling element from un-
dernini1g q sport which is an insritu-

The net results Of few Of the COM
ferences follow: >
Tex" Rickard announces that Brady
has agreed 20 part with his interest in
the Dempsey-Carpentier bont. Charles
Cochran, according to cable edvices
from England, is too III to confer, but
It Is expected that he win sit up and
confer with himself, after which he
slso will part with bis share Of the
bout.
This, of course, leaves Rickard sole
proprietor of the "miliion-dollar. bout.
The result Of the conference between
R;ckard and Kearns was that the lat
Ter agreed TO Dempsey boxing Carpen-
tier on a percentage instead Of for the
original 100000. Carpenter has been
asked by cable to agree 20 this new ar
rangement, but no reply is expected
for few days.
Willard Also TO Confer
The snow may let up to-day, but the
conferences will continue. Rickard is
due for q conference with Jess Willard
snd Kearns to arrange for the Demp-
sey Willard bout, set for March II at
M&dlS9H S1uSxS GaTu0Hs 4 HIS ALSO Wlta
be q percentage affair, and the percent
ago Of the ex-champion will be in in
verse ratio to the percentages he got
when he was champion.
Rickard announced that for the pzes-
eng there would be no change in the
original contract, which calls for the
date OF the Dempsey Carpenter bout
az July 2, and the place somewhere on
the American continent or Cuba. Rick
ard must name this place not later than
MaYch I.
There will have go be another con-
ference for the final turning over of
chs Brady and Cochran interests in the
boat. This conference will be popu-
lated mostly by attorneys. 1t Is. legally
correct for one of tho promoters to
take over the interests Of the others,
bns ali promoters want 60 be quite sure
about It. OF course, when Rickard
takes over the contract he is bound to
pay the half-million-dolla purse origi-
nally agreed upon. but Kearns declares
chat he Ia willing to take little less
than 100000 for Dempsey's end.
II am willing to gamble with Rick

champion gets what I think lis the
champions share of whatever the gate
may be-"

So this much Ia all over but the sign

SHOOT BLASTS
 LOWER TAX HOPES
Utah Senator Warns They May Go Even Higher-U. $. 4. Is Now Four Billion Dollar Year Nation
 Says Treasury Watchdog.

Washington, June 17.--To those whose tears follow their dollars, pre- nare to shed them now.
 For in the opinion of Senator Reed Shoot of Utah, whose chief occupa- tion in life is guarding the govern ment treasury from marauding hands, there isn't going to be any tax re- duction.
 There won't be any this year or next There won't be any for the next twenty-five years--any that the common people or anybody else will secopnize when they meet 1t. In fact, sn the opinion of this statesman, who probably knows more about the ms and outs of governmental financing than any other member of Congress- there is a much greater danger that in the years to come taxes may even To higher rather than lower.
 But as the senator from Utah sees it-and as he gave his observations he groaned in anguish of mind and spirit-this country is no longer billion dollar nation. The orators who used to roll that figure over their tongues are pikers. For MT. Shoot is dreadfully afraid that this country has got upon 1 million dol lar year plane permanently, and t is going to take the most rigid kind of economy to keep it around that mark instead of delving in idle dreams of cutting taxes in two.
 In other words If the senatorial fin ancial expert is right and he has been right much too often in the past in his prophecies about governmental exIssSitaiii aiiitssasir.es-~th average man might lis we'll make up his mind he is going | to have to pay his present income taxes for the rest of his natural life. Either that or some other tax substi- ute that will take about the same amount
 Senator Smoot at taxation hear ing recently made similar observa- tions about his fears that taxes never would be substantially reduced. Dem- ocrats quickly grasped 1t and have been heralding the statement about the country as indicating that the Re- publicans had buncoed the people during the last campaign in their pledges about taxation.
