BooTLEGGER BAD AS RED

Prohibition Commissioner Haynes said "a mouth
ful" as our picturesque speech phrases It. when he as
serted that the American who does not see in the boot
logger q danger as great as the bolshevik is ashort-
sighted individual. Indeed, the bootlegger IS worse than
the anarchist OF the so-called philosophical stripe, be-
be no law whatever. he Is not customarily a lawbreak-
er. and the illegal seller Of liquor is. 1t IS a danger
Gus attitude to take-that OF tolerant opinion toward
breaking the law, no matter what the law is or who the
person IL who Is guilty of its infraction. Even if per
sonei liberty" so dear to Americans, were being inter
fered with IN the enforcement OF the prohibition law.
which. OF course, 1t is not. there still would exist no
reason for nouting It.
Prohibition is q lava part of the constitution
and violation of 1t is Just as much a crime as the break
ing OF othsr laws. no matter what individuals opinion
about the matter may be. Appeals made through the
personal liberty channel is intended to blind individ-
uais 20 the real seriousness OF the situation. Every
time an American IS tempted to break the prohibition
law or TO wink at its violation by others he is tread
ing on dangerous ground.
The fact that the new law has been found difficult
of enforcement is no indication that It is impossible of
enforcement nor proof that the country at large does
mot want Il. Many states had prohibition before the
federal act became operative. They had their bootleg
gers. too. but they remained in the prohibition column
despite frequent battles IN which recourse to the bal
lot was taken.
We believe a majority OF the people Of the United
States, whatever their views on prohibition are fot

books. That Il will be strictly enforced in time seems
certain. but the officers in charge will have an easier
time II those who really respect our general laws Will
become thoroughly law-abiding and not permit camou-
tagging phrases to blind them.
When the v1oIator OF the prohibition law occupies
the same place In public opinion as the bootlegger. mail

forcenent OF the dry act will be much simplihed.

SHIFTING EXCHANGE.

While the business world regards hopefully the
slow but apparently sure movement of foreign exchange
toward the pre-war parity. the Boston Transcript com
rnents that "vagaries in exchange impart a zest to
present day travelling unknown to voyagers In the stable
days before 1914. They provide the traveller a thrill
similar to that OF the gambler; the thrill that comes
from the possibility that the future may bring either
gains OF losses, Today a dollar means so many hours
or minutes in Europe, according to the taste of the in
~1ividual. Tomorrow, the chances are that 1t will mean
either more or less. The reason for the uncertainty Is
that prices in Europe remain at their abnormal post

value"

mourn. because Caruso, although a native of Italy. be-
ionged to the world. Wherever music lovers dwell,
there the voice of the richly talented Neapolitan was
known. Born OF humble parentage, he rose to a high
state as a result Of a voice that exerted a marvellous
power and which now is stiIled forever. Perhaps not
since the day OF Jenny Lind has any singer been placed
on as high q pedestal In the matter of public esteem
as Caruso occupied. and he was a favorite alike in the
countries where the tongus is Latin, English, Teutonic

Starting life from a lowly position, he sought and

voice with which nature had endowed him. Music, it
appears, was as difficult for hin to learn, as for many
who have no singing voices whatever.
How thorough his training may lave been may be
judged from the fact that an edition or Who's Who
states that he had NO musical education worthy OF note.

American Golfers
Lose Great Match
To British air
Barnes and Hutchinson Are
Beaten by Mitchell and
Duncan at Nashville | Up

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 12.-In one
of the greatest golf duels of the year
George Duncan and Abe Mitchell pre-
dominated over Barnes and Hutchinson
over the famous BelIemeade course to-
day by the narrow margin of one hole
Thrills and spectacular incidents came
in such rapid order throughout the af-

son broke the course record by three
strokes with a brilliant 81, receiving at
the same time valuable aid from Barnes.
This terrific pace was fast enough to
square the match on the 35th hole, with
$500 prize hanging in the balance on
the final finishing hole of $50 yards.
Both Duncan and Mitchell came
through with 4, each leaving Jock and
Long Jim eight-foot puts for a half.
But in each instance their puts
stopped on the lip, and so for the sec

title holders went down in defeat to
George and Abe. The uncanny bril-
liancy shown can be judged from the
fact that the best ball of the four was
Sc over a $500 yard course, against
a stiff par of 70.
This left them only two over three

Richard Calls OFF
Pete Herman Bout
With Roy Moore
Promoter to Substitute An
other Feature Bout for Re-
opening Show i'm Garden
By Jack Lawrence

Tex Rickard announced last night
that when his indoor lake at Madison
Square Garden is closed for the season
on Thursday an army of workmen will
be put on the job transferring the
famous amphitheater into a boxing
arena that will be the most COM
modious and up-to-date in the city
The great concrete base on while the
huge pool has rested will not be re-
moved, as it is the present intention
of the promoter to restore the bath
next spring.
Five days will be required in dis
mantling the pool. The thousands of
white tiles will be packed away in
straw and the waterfall at the Fourth
Avenue end will be taken down. The
concrete base on which the pool was
built will improve the seating capacity
of that part of the arena inside the
ring of boxes, according to Richard.
1t is also understood that the maritime
experiment will not interfere with the
, Garden features of the winter season,
including the circus, six-day bicycle
race and other cold weather fixtures.
Richard admitted to the writer last
night that he had q number of cham
pionship bouts in view for the Garden,
| including one that will involve Georges
Carpenter, but he said most of them
were in that stage of negotiation
which precluded the possibility of an
announcement at this time.
Opening Feature Cancelled
The promoter said that the officially
announced bout between Pete Herman
holder of the bantamweight champion
ship of the world, and Roy Moore, the
| st. Paul "harp," which was to have
opened the fstic season on September
| %, just FIVE days after. the closing Of
the pool, had been called of unit
further notice. In Richards eyes The
st. Paul boy is the most logical con
tender at this time for the bantam
weight title.
The boxing program, of which the
Herman Moore bout was TO have beer
the star attraction, will be held. how
ever, and another main affair will take
its place. Just what stars Of the
ring this principal bout will bring to-
gether has not yet been decided, but
Richard has declared emphatically
that the Garden will see no repetition
of the Wilson-Downey fiasco.
The Herman-Moore bout was to have
gone fifteen rounds to decision and
was to have been preceded by three
eight-round affairs, which still stand
and will take place. They involve Car
Tremaine against Irish Johnny Cur.
tain, Earl Baird against Battling
Reddy, and Johnny Murray against
Red Cap Wilson.
Money Question Arises
At the Garden last night it was saie
that Herman had agreed to take par
in no less than three battles in defense
of his title for Richard and that the
details of the financial arrangement:
concerning the latter two fights hac
caused the disagreement which tenn
porarily halted the negotiations fol-
the Moore engagement. Moore has re
Gently fought Jack Sharkey and he ha.
also met Herman on several occasion:
