Nativity as regards boxing Is in
teresting. Champions have sprung
from nearly every nationality under
the sun. The old adage take moth
ing for granted" is doubly significant
in this particular. When the remark
is heard that one nationality has and
does predominate the squared circle
the other old saw that they are
talking thru their hat" covers the
situation.
But race in this respect is interest
ing, so let us take the Hebrew as
an illustration. From time immem-
erial the Jewish race have been prom
inent in all affairs of state, and it
is quite proper to mention that they
have not escaped the boxing game.
You will find them mixed up with
the kings of fistiana practically since
its incipiency. Daniel Modonza. who
was born July s, 1864. became prom
ment as pugilist. He was born at

ish extraction. He fought the best men
of his time, and it is needless to say
that he gave = good account of him

the average OF championship calibre,
he was game enough TO fight many of
the greatest boxers OF his time. Prob

RADIO TELEPHONY
ADVANCED BY U. S.
American Contentious Pre-.

ence at Paris.
~ ths Associated Press.

PARIS. August 22.-American back
ing Of wireless telephony as the big
thing Of the near future prevailed in
the international wireless conference.
which closed tonight after having
been in session for two months. The
American delegation. headed by Mai.
Gen George o. Squier, chief of the
Signal Corps of the United States
Army. came to Paris with a definite
program. Most of this program Is
said to have been adopted. although
the conclusions Of the conference will
be kept secret until they are present.
ed to the. various governments by
their delegates.
Americans was that certain bands of
waves should be reserved for wire-
less telephony. This was opposed by
the Europeans. as they conidered
that telephony would occupy too great
a part of the usable waves. With the
American viewpoint finally was
adopted. The Americans pictured
presidents and premiers Of the future
speaking directly among nations and
emphasized the overwhelming impor-
tance Of wireless telephony in su-
cessity for aiding in its development.
The activity of the Americans in
"selectivity" or the development of
the equivalent of the private line in
wireless. as opposed to the present
party line" where any one may
listen in on a conversation, met with
recognition by the conference. Among
the fourteen principal questions with
which the conference dealt and
adopted was a recommendation by the
Americans that certain waves be as
signed to each country. with treaty
provisions limiting each country to
the use Of instruments adapted to
those wave lengths. SO that the result
would be secret wireless.
1t was agreed to apportion these
waves, probably designating each
might have the exclusive use of GER
tain colored waves.
VIII Not supersede Cables.
It was the opinion Of the conference
that wireless never would supersede
the extension of cable facilities. The
speedy elimination Of static interfer-
ence, which now is SO serious to wire-
less, was predicted.
The conference emphasized the need
OF governments interesting themselves
in wireless telephony. The report OF
the conference, which will fill seven
mail bags, offers solutions for prob
lens that were not solved at the
1t is believed that this report will be
submitted to the Washington govern
ment in November.
Gen. SQuier will return to the United
States in September to render his per-
sonal report. The delegates are leav-
ing tomorrow to visit the French

THE younger girl of today seems

Infractions of customs that in

companions by demanding the old
fashioned courtesies.
1T is unfortunate" he con-

are beginning to take the women
at their word. They refrain from
offering seats in the cars because
some of the overzealous advocates
of equality have at some time en-
barrassed them by a patronizing
refusal. This is only one of the
causes of the appalling decline in
the number of gentlemen.
"The strange part of it all is
that the women are the first to
complain of the alleged discour-
tesy. In theory, the equality plan
is good. but in practice it is a
failure. Its practice has brought
about a condition that nothing
short of a campaign for the re-
turn of chivalry and good man
