Up in the Garden gymnasium yester-
day this veteran scrapper whirled
through his training stunts with all the
pep and vigor that might be expected
of fighter of less than half his years.
In fact, many Of the youngsters who
were there, preparing for various ring
engagements did not seem to be nearly
SO energetic. Jack topped off his days
work by boxing three whirlwind rounds
with Charley Pitts and 1t is doubtful
whether the latter ever saw SO many
gloves at one time In all his life. Brit
ton may not carry very dreadful
wallop, but he certainly can nit from
more angles than any boxer we have
ever watched.
Discussing his long career with the
writer yesterday, Britton gave no indi-
cation that the idea of retiring has en-
tered his mind. He declared that the
next three years ought to be the best
of his career, which is rather amazing,
coming from an athlete who is in the
shadow of his fortieth year. Thirty
eight years is the age limit for boxers
as fixed by the New York State Boxing
Commission. Britton will pass that
notch on the fourteenth day Of next
October.
There was considerable speculation
at the Garden yesterday as to what the
Britton says he will still be champion
when he rolls by the thirty -eight-year
mark and that the authorities will have
to get an injunction against him II they
think they can jam him into retire-
ment.
If there Is anything to the fine old
ndage that "youth will be served. .
there will never be better oppor-
tunity for the maxim to do its stuff
| than on Wednesday night at Madison
Square Garden. Britton, the old nan,
will be facing Walker, the youth. The
latter can truthfully be said to be in
the very bloom Of youth and at this
time should be at the height of his
career. They are going fifteen rounds.
which will give youth plenty Of chance
| to prove its superiority over compara-
tive senility. If Britton can turn back
the young and vigorous Walker, who 10
just half way through hia twenty-flrst
year. he will prove himself one Of the
truly remarkable figures in prescnt-dav
athletic competition.
an all except age these two welter-
weights are evenly matched. The Jer-
sey boy will probably have an advan-
tage Of about one pound in weight. At
| least that was the indication yesterday
when Britton weighed 145 and Walker
l46 In the matter Of reach the ad-
vantage will rest with the champion
by a margin Of two and a half inches.
! which is considerable, but this can be
offset by Walkers superior hitting
power. There is no doubt that the
challenger carries the heftier WALTON
OF the two and this may well prove to
pc the determining factor in this in
teresting battle.
britton will enter the ring favorita
IN the betting, aa champions generally
do. He will carry the money because
Of his wonderful skill as "a boxer and
his mastery of ring tactics and GEN

GENEVA. N. Y, Oct. 2s.--The Ho-
bart College eleven scored decisive
victory over the City College Of New
York here this afternoon, score of "a
to 0.
The game was by no means as one
sided as the score indicates. Continu-
Gus hammering by the aggressive Ho-
bart men had it's effect on the City
College line. Louhry starred for the
victors, accounting for two goals, and
Casper scored another.
Hobart's goal was seldom in actual
danger. Over 1000 people witnessed
the struggle.

"LAhE DUCKS WOULD PUT SUBSIDY OVER

In a smashing attack on the ship
subsidy bill, Senator La Toilette
showed that this bill was passed in
the house solely through the aid of
representatives who have been re-
pudiated by their constituents. :
1.-THE administrations majority of
1863 in the house Of Representatives
has been reduced to less than 20, and
the majority in the senate has been
reduced from "a . to. 10,'' he said.
mo one will question the assertion
that in the new congress, elected by
the people on. Nov. Z, members of
the senate and the house Ct both
parties who are opposed to the more
important policies of this admins
tration, will be in majority in both
houses. II = - = .
Under these circumstances. the
executive has Drought forward the
pending bill and an effort is now be-
ing made to obtain its passage by
a congress the administration ma
jority in which, has been repudiated
by the American people. .z sss
"This bill has already passed the
lower house by a majority Of "a

cumstance that at least 10. of the

were cast by members who were de-
feated In the primaries and the, cleo

HAPPY new YEAR, FOR ALL
BY j. M. 8BAEjR.

The Ex- Congressman Cartoonist.
S5 The fact is that this looks much
more like q happy New Year; FOR the
ord dinary everyday folks who do the
work Of the world than they have
had In q long time. rs 4
We can be happy because IT looks
very much as though the governme
of the United States would In 1929
be transferred from the control OF
the department Of: Justice back to
the peoples representatives in con-
gress at the Capitol ). In congress is
where Washing gton and other foun-
ders intended the legislative branch
of the government should be and not
in the courts and in department OF
Justice. A.
The Scientific American announces
the invention Of a new bumper for
automobiles. It states that pressure
of 15F pounds on this new device
throws out the clutch, applies the
brakes; cuts off the ignition and
blows the horn. 1t seems to do about
everything but take care Of the body.
This new bumper. can well be com
pared to the department Of justice
under Palmer and Daugherty. If a
progressive citizen Of our country
applied the slightest pressure on the
department against a profiteer,
war CRATER or other privileged crook
the Burns blood hounds were
turned loose to find a clue, the de-
partment applied the brakes, cut
off the investigation and the kept
press blew their horns. Neither JUS
tice nor liberty We're saved. On the
contrary they were crushed to pro-
tect the privileged crew. ,st<,
Palmer was whitewashed. Daugn.
erty is being white-washed. Daugh-
erty's Impeachment was justified
but. by liberal applications of the old
ka1son1ine he will probably be en-.
abled to stay In office. 4: ,z
1t looks as though ''2S~ in 1898
would apply to the predatory gang
that has dictated the course Of
events in America since early in the
World war. The fact in the matter
is that we have built up in this sup
'posedly free country a gigantic me-
dium Of oppression, through the rea-
diness Of he department Of Justice
better called the departure from JUS
tice-to houDdr labor: and the sub
serviency of the courts in support
ing this policy. The time for a
change is at hand. 5=. Z
The courts never have actually
had any power to declare acts Of
congress unconstitutional. They have
merely assumed the power. Con-
gress, if it had a little backbone
would speedily remedy that situation
Now it looks as though these IL
progressive senators and the. 100 or
more progressive represe natives
would supply the nucn-needed vi
famine to keep the spine Of. con-
gress erect. Iff so, the usurpation of
power by the courts under control
Of the department Of Justice will
soon be thing of The past. j. ,a

action and unreason. We are q peo-.

We are cleaning our own holse. Our

fairs there is q measure of self pros;
lection. We shall be assisting in the
protection of civilization against the
forces Of decay and superstition and
destruction. But the supreme com
pensation will be in the spiritual sat
isfaction of doing right.
Those who have so loudly clam
ored for isolation have been clever
in their arguments. They have been
clever with the cleverness of those
who play to win. They have buried
their heads in old documents from
which they have quoted what seemed
to suit their needs. On that score
it needs only to be said that the pol-
icies held to be, wise by the Found :
|ers Of the Republic amply Justify
what the heart of America now de-
sires to do but which her politicians
refuse to do. Pious words have
cloaked many detestab1e cause, but
they were never used to less credit
than in holding America back from
her manifest duty.
Before. the newly strengthened
group of Progressive legislators there
opens a magnificent opportunity.
Before them there is clear duty.
Upon them is a great and solemn
obligation.
The fidelity to the cause of hu-
man welfare that has given these
men their progressive stamp is that
which in its full application should
lead them to pronounce to the world
Americas determination to help the
world to right itself and save itself
America must play her part; she
must be helpful everywhere. and in
every way. Wherever the issue is
between right and wrong, between
life and destruction. between prog.
ress and reaction, there our country
belongs and there it must concern
itself! ~ ,.

LIGHT ON THE SUBSIDY

Senator Boraf1: Let me cali your
attention to the fact that this year,
according to the Budget presented. 6
we are to- spend about $300,o00.00e
on the navy! Is it necessary to go
beyond that, In view Of the fact, as
the president tells us, that there IS
no threatening cloud anywhere:
In 1914 we expended less than
s170,o00,oo0' upon the navy Now,
four years after the Word war, at
a time when the whole world is in
distress and overburdened with tax
.es, when the real disturbance is not.
that Of war between nations but
war between peoples apd govern
ments on account of oppression trom
pending $500, 100000 upon the navy.
We are told, in addition to that
that the just argument for a depart
ure from our national policy in grant
ing subsidies to ships is to increase
our preparedness. While we are ex-
pending $300;O00,O00 this year for
the navy we are expending s24,S76.i-
900 for agriculture.
. + How long, Mr.. President, can we;
continue that kind OF program? /.
advise my friends, in all seriousness,
that if this subsidy proposition can
not be sustained upon the theory
that it is to aid American business,
American agriculture, to aid in the
restoration Of those activities which.
are absolutely essential to the eco
nomic life Of the nation, il bad bet.
ter be abandoned.
We shall expend this year, Mr..
President, for war purposes, $2,65o,-
600, for the public health 81 5,S77,-
900, for promotion of education 81 o.
$1,000, for labor Interests s4,11s,-
