kearns Back of
Tate-Wills Bout
at Portland !!
Rumor Has 1t That Dempsey
Boss Wanted TO Test
Wills Ability and se-
leeled Tate to Do Ii.
BY AL SPHINX.

They are saying around Chicago
that the recent match Al Portland
Ore, IN which the eolored heavy
weights. Harry Wills and Bill Tate
were the eontenders. was really ar
ranged BY Jack Kearns, manager ant
Man Friday OF Champion Jael
Dempsey.
Due 10 the TACT that all sorts o
people were calling for a meeting be-
tween Dempsey and Wills, Kearns
they say, was anxious 10 see how
good a man Wills really was.
As the story goes. the best way
10 discover Wills skill, strength am
ability. was TO send a friend Of
Dempsey's against him with order,
10 fight Wills every loot OF the way
and try him out.
Tate Tested Wills.
Following out this plan, as the
story goes. Dempsey's old man Fri
day, Bill Tate, was selected as the
colored individual TO make the test
and then came this bout at Portland
or rather in the Milwaukee Arena
near Portland.
In their first trial Wills nearly
spilled the beans by fouling Tate il
the first round. Naturally, as thai
was not a fair test, Kid Howard
dear friend OF Dempsey and Kearn'
and Bill Tate's manager, allowed
Tate to try it all over again. Howart
was praised for his "very kind ant
generous act,' and it looked lik,
something OF that sort.
Now that Wills has proven moi
such-a-much," you may see a mattel
between the big colored gen;lema:
and Dempsey.
Avoided McVey.
As. a matter OF fact, however, i
does not look to me as though
Dempsey, wise fighter that he is
will ever enter the ring with q
colored fighter as his vis-a-vis.
Dempsey has never had liking
for battles of this sort.
This was proven when Jack John
son came back while ago and OF.
fered to meet the champion any old
place and for any sized purse.
To Jacks def then, Dempsey aud
kearns maintained discreet ST.
lencc. ... ..--
Then there have been other occa-
sions where Dempsey and kearns
have side-stepped propositions CON-
ing from black men.
The late Sam McVey and Harry
Mills have always been willing to
face Jack.
Cost Him Three Ribs.
Then there is another colorcd man
who has time and time again chal-
lengcd Dempsey, but whom he has
always refused to meet.
That is Sam Langford, "tlTc Bos-
ton Tar Baby" who for the last sew
eral years has made his headquarters
in Chicago.
Time and again Langford has
called on kearns, Dempsey's man.
ager, and asked him for match with
the champion, but always Kearns has
replied:
"Sam, I'm looking for something
easier"
So, if Dempsey would not meet
Langford, he is not likely 20 meet
Wills.
And there seems good reason for
Dempsey's steering clear of the me-
groes.
The only black man Dempsey ever
met was John Lester Johnson OF
New York, and when Dempsey came
out of that fight it was with three
broken ribs.
They say Dempsey's experience
with Johnson is the actual reason
he draws the color line.

New York, Jan. 26.-Organizers OF

The Llano colonist. [volume] (Llano, Calif.) 191?-1937, 1922-05-06
By ALBERT F. CoYLE
Executive Sec'y, All American Coop.
erative Commission; Editor, Loco
motive Engineers journal.

c. 0 MUCH has been written in this
country about consumers coop
eratives that we are prone to over
look the remarkable achievements of
workers cooperative production socie-
ties both here and abroad. We are, cf
course, familiar with the success attain
ed by American farmers in cooperative
production. The census of 1920 shows
that products Of over one-half million
farms valued above one billion dollars
are handled comparatively. Indeed
throughout the middle West, the most
thriving forms Of cooperation are the
producers diaries. c.eameries, cheese
factories, elevators, flourmilIs, and
meat plants. While not discounting
the value Of consumers cooperation,
the farmer-producer has learned by
years of hard experience that it is
more important for him to unite CO.
operatiyely to get fair prices for the
product he has to sell than it is to eff
feet small saving in the goods he
needs to buy.
The workers of Europe are looking
more and more to productive coopera-
ton as the basis for just and stable
economic order. Decent men are sick
and tired of system III which the sole
motive for production and distribution
is greed for private profits. They see
all around them the social havoc wrot
by running industry to make money"
rather than to serve the needs of their
fellow men Even the dulIest worker is
prodded out Of his indifference in times
of industrial depression, when he has
no work and his family has no bread
because the men who own the jobs
close their factories until the need for
goods is SO acute that society will again
pay them the profits they demand.
These are the reasons why the work
ers of Europe today are determined to
build new world in which service and
not greed is the handspring Of human
action. in which gain without labor
shall no longer exist. This is the rea-
son why American workers are taking
a new interest in the possibilities of CO.
operative production and are steadily
increasing the number of sucressful
producers co-operatives. 1t is the basis
