Kick Came From Dempsey
nv Associated Press(


Mex York, June 16.-Controversy
is expected before referee is named
by the New Jersey Boxing commits,
sion for the Dempsey Carpenter fight
1t had been expected selection
would be made at a meeting of the
commission today, but after adjourn
ment it was announced had been
indefinitely postponed at the request
of promoter Tex Rickard. While no
one would discuss the matter it was
understood sharp difference of opin-
ion had developed among those with
interest at stake.
According to- general reports ].
Harry Ertle, one of the regular New
Jersey referees, had been tentatively
selected with three other New Jer-
sey referees as alternates, but oppo-
sition developed from Dempsey's
camp because the commission had
ignored candidates named in the ori-
ginal contract signed by Dempsey and
Carpenter.
The matter was reported to have
been referred to Rickard with the
request that he try to effect COM
promise.
1t was learned, unofficially, that the
commission would stand on it's rights
under the state boxing law which
empowers it to name and license all
referees.
No objection from Carpenters
camp has been raised against the
naming of the referee.

MEXICAN SOLDIER QUIT

Mexico City, June 16.-The bust
ness of making a living by fighting
seems to have undergone a decline in
Mexico. This is indicated by the fact
that 1900 soldiers, some of them

SOLDIER HOSPITAL
SERVICE PRAISED,
ALSO CRITICISED
Patients and Nurses Too
Friendly Says An
Investigator
COMMENDS WORK DONE
Great Progress Made In
Face of Many
Obstacles

New York, June 16.-Conditions
in the government hospitals for the
care of tuberculous soldiers, sailors
marines and nurses were both COM
mended and criticized in today's ses-
sion of the annual meeting of the Ma
tional tuberculosis Association here.
The comments both favorable and
otherwise were made in a report pre-
sented by two of the five physicians
selected by the surgeon-general of
the United States Public Health Ser
vice to visit and inspect the hospi-
tails for tuberculous service men.
1t is drawn up by DR.. George T.
Palmer, of Springfield, ILL.,, and DR..
Henry W. Hoagland, of La .Jolla, Cal.
The physicians reported that they
were surprised to find that the insti-
tutions were so efficiently conducted
in the face of difficulties and obsta-
cles that had to be overcome. They
commended the attitude of the sur
geon-general in seeking to improve
the service and readiness to act upon
constructive criticism
The chief criticisms of the govern
ment hospitals made by the two ply
sicianS were:
Shortage of medical personnel, es-
pecially trained in the diagnosis and
treatment of tuberculosis.
Too Much Vamping by Nurses
Shortage of specially trained nurs-
es and the lowering of the moral
through the social relationship of
nurses and other female employees
with patients
"Lack of discipline indicated in the
prevalence of gambling, the use of
tobacco, the abuse of leaves and fur
loughs and the participation of pa
tients in harmful diversions and am
usementS.
"The assignment of the more COM
petent members of the medical staff
to wards for terminal and advanced
patients with less efficient medical
service in the wards occupied by the
doubtful cases and by patients await
ing discharge"
The physicians pointed out that
there was great difficulty in recruit
ing medical stats for tuberculosis
sanatoriams because of the neglect
of tuberculosis by medical schools in
the past and because of the greatly
increased demand for physicians with
tuberculous training.
On the whole the physicians stated
that they believed that the United
Safes Public Health Servile was en-
titled to general commendation for
the degree of efficiency attained un-
der the conditions prevailing in the
establishment of these institutions.
During the next 20 years." the
physicians stated, "but two great me-
dical problems will remain as the af-
termath of the war. One of these
is that of dealing with mental and
cases and the other is the
problem"
They asserted that the peak of the
incidence of tuberlosis resulting from
the war has not been reached nor
will it be for a number of years to
come. They predicted that if the fed
eral government met the problem of
soldier efficiently and at
the same time utilized its opportuni-
ties for the bnefit of the civil popu-
alton there would come, as an indi-
rect result of the war, an awakening
