CHAMPIONS FEDERAL
BILL ON EDUCATION

Little Rock, June .30.-The Arkan.
sas Educational Association is follow
ing the example of similar organiza
lions in other states in bringing the
pressure of public sentiment to bear
upon our congressional delegation for
the passage of the Towner-Sterling
bill, now pending in congress, being
the SmithTowner bill of the last ses-
sion. Attention is being called to the
tact that there is no more vital cues
ton before the people today than that
of education. Arkansas congressman
are committed to the support of a
progressive educational system. The
forward education movement of Ar
kansas proposes to begin at the bottom
and see that means are provided to
insure equal educational advantages
for every boy and girl of the state.
This can be done only through the
primary public schools. A thorough
demonstration agency upon which the
future welfare and civic strength of
the state depends.
The demonstrating bill creates a
department of education and provides
practicable system of federal aid
Tor education in the several states, but
prohibits federal control. This is to
be left entirely to the people of the
various states, since there are local
problems which cannot be successfully
handled from Washington. ARKANSAS
proposes to grade 100 per cent in this
campaign" says Major James J. Har-
rison, director.

BOIL WEEVIL THICK
ALL OVER ARKANSAS

Little Rock, June 30.-Correspon-
dents of the bureau of crop estimates
agree generally that there are 20
boil weevils this season where there
was one last season." That the pest
will be unusually destructive this year
is certain and already in some sec
lions farmers are beginning to pillow
up their cotton fields. The area of
lnfestation is about so per cent of the
total cotton acreage Of the state, run
ming in an irregular line from the
southern boundary Of Polk county,
northeast to Van Buren, county, thence
southeast down the Arkansas river
valley, with special areas of infesta-
ton in Lonoke and Phillips counties.
1t appears to be most destructive
along the Arkansas river.

SAY AMERICA TURNS
OUT MANY DIVORCES

London, June II. (By Mail).-
America was described as "the hap
py hunting ground of divorce and
s'the home of divorces by the Rev. A.
v. Magee, vicar Of ST. Marks church,
London, during a discussion of the
divorce question by the London do
cesar conference just ended. A reso-
luton was adopted pledging the con-
ference 'to adhere to the principle of
the indissolubility of Christian mar
riage."
Rev. Magee, denounced Lord Buck
masters bill in parliament for divorce
reform, saying it could adequately be
described in two titles, divorces while
you wait" and marriage on trial for
six months An amendment to the
resolution that the conference should
pledge itself to adhere ito the teach
ing of Jesus Christ concerning mar
riage" was lost.

CARP, JACK have
Varied CAREERS
(By the Associated Press)

New York, June 30.-Veterans of
numerous cory ring battles, will face
each other in the ring when Jack
Dempsey defends his heavyweight
title against the challenge of Geor-
ges Carpenter in the Jersey City
ring, July 2. Through several cam
paigns, both have won and lost con-
tests in nearly every possible man.
ner. Both have won by knockouts, on
points and by fouls; both have lost
on points and by knockouts, although
Dempsey never has lost decision on
a foul as did carpenter to Frank
Klaus, when Manager Descamps
climbed into the ring to save the
Frenchman from further punishment.
Carpenter, fighting since 1907 is
the more grizzled veteran of the two.
In winning his way up from the BAN
tam weight ranks to the heavyweight
class, Carpenter, who started boxing
at Ia, has engaged in So battles. In
II of these he emerged from the ring
the victor. Thirty-four times, he
won by knockouts; 33 times on point
decisions and four times on fouls by
opponents.
The Frenchman has fought only
five draws; has lost once on a foul
and has been knocked out once. To
a French youth named Gloria goes the
credit for being the only opponent
who has stood over the challenger and
listened to the toll of the referee
Carpenters record, before the war,
is one of the most active credited to
a leading boxer. Service in the
French army curtailed his boxing for
four years but since the armistice,
with a heavyweight title bout his
main consideration, Georges has en-
gagged in fewer glove contests.
Jack Dempsey has fought Ga bat
ties and SIS resulted in victories for
him. The champion has knocked out
45 or almost three fourths of his
opponents in six years of boxing, a
remarkable record. Nine times, he
has won on point decisions and his
only victory on a foul was over the
ponderous Carl Morris.
The champion has fought four draw
decisions; has lost on points twice
and has hit the canvass only once to
stay there for 10 seconds "Fireman"
Jim Flynn, in 1917, achieved that
startling feat but later the "Pueblo
Fireman" was knocked out in less
than minute by Dempsey when the
latter was on his way to the cham
pionship. Dempsey also has fought
two no-decision bouts.

LEPROSY PATIENTS
KEPT UNDER PERMIT
tBy the Associated Press)

Honolulu, T. H., June 10. (By
MaiD Some of the patients released
on parole from the leprosy investiga-
ton station and hospitals at Kalihi,
Honolulu, have failed to report at
regular intervals, as they are requir-
ed to do by the terms of their parole,
and the board of health Of the ter
ritory has issued an ultimatum that
if this continues they will be brought
back to the station and their permits
to live at home cancelled.
While not single patient out of
the scores paroled from Kalihi has
been returned owing to recurrence of
the disease, the authorities insist on
keeping strict check on those releas-
ed. Board of health officers point out
that, while the chaumloogra oil treat
ment as administered here, has prov
ed that leprosy can be checked, time
alone can establish whether a dedin-
tie cure has been evolved.
In all their statements given to the
Associated Press, DR.. A. L. Dean,
president of the University of Hawaii.
and the other scientists waging the
battle against leprosy here have
specifically said that the chaulmoogra
oil treatment will check leprosy, and
while expressing the confident hope
that it will ultimately result in de-
finite cure, they have carefully point
ed out that this hope can be realized
only by the test of time.
