duct Campaign Against

BY Associated Press 10 Every Evening.
Jersey City. July "Details Of plans
for the prosecution of public officials
In New Jersey were discussed today
by officials of the international Re
form Bureau who vainiy attempted
10 prevent the staging Of the Demp-
ey-Cnrpentier contest last Saturday.
The officials, who declared they
would take action in the courts of the
State against those whom they con-
sidered had permitted an infraction OF
the law met in the office of Herbert
ellison, attorney for the bureau.
The bureau has already demanded
the arrest of Jack Dempsey, the vic
torious champion. on a charge OF as
sallt and battery upon the person Of
Georges Carpenter.
Dr. Wilbur Crafts. superintendent
of the Reform Bureau. has also de-
elared that Governor Edwards vio-
lated the law, as well as many other
state officials. The 10000 spectators
who f1ockcd into the great arena are
also cited by the reformers as law
breakers.
They base their contention upon
The assertion that tho spectacle wit
messed Saturday was a prize fight,
which is prohibited under tbs New
Jersey boxing law. boxing exhibitions
only. they said. are sanctioned in this
statute.
DR.. Crafts announced that the bu-
reau was planning crusade against
the exhibition OF motion pictures OF
the fight anywhere in the world. He
said letters would be sent to every
mayor. in the State and that the bu-
reau hoped thus materially TO curtail
the exhibitions.
I'VE are also planning 20 notify the
Federal government that the pictures
have been or will be sent to foreign
countries" . he continued. and will
ask that the matter be called 10 the
attention of diplomatic representatives
of such countries. They will be asked
to observe that the exhibition of the
fight. pictures outside New Jersey l.
a violation of American law.
As for a Carpenters or
Dempsey Wi lizard fight, DIR. Crafts had
this TO say:
I'VE will go through the State TO
speak against the proposed use OF the
Jersey city arena for another hght
