Conditions in India are causing dis
turbances in the English Cabinet
Because of the publication of an Of
fical document without the consent Of
the whole cabinet, the Secretary from
India, Mr.. Montague, has been re-
buked and in return has resigned his
position. In harmony with the Vice
roy, Lord Reading, he was favorable
to a more moderate policy than that
favored by the Prime Minister. The
resignation of a cabinet minister
alone is rather an unusual event in
England, as the cabinet always acts
as a whole. In the meantime more
drastic measures are being adopted
in India. The leader Of the move
ment Of discomfort, Ghandi, has been
arrested, and the future policy will
be determined by the effect this will
have. The Crown Prince is still in
India and hopes to arouse the loyalty
os the people. He has been well
treated thus far.

The attention Of England is turn
ing toward the Budget, which comes
before the House Of Commons in
April. England has the most perfect
Budget system in the world. Every
thing is so arranged and classified
that there can be TO misunderstand-
ing. There Is no chance for expen-
ditures or receipts TO be covered up.
Moreover, the House is exacting IN
its requirement that there shall not
be deficit. A surplus is always ex-
pected which shall apply on the Ma
tional debt. A failure to ratify in the
House may lead to a resignation Of
the Cabinet. The Budget consists Of
a report for the past year and an es-
innate of receipts and expenditures for
the coming year. England depends
upon the income tax and a tariff on a
few articles, not produced in England,
for her revenue. In case more is
needed, the rate is raised, and some
times it is reduced, il the expendi-
lures fail for any reason. Even dur.
ing war times England's Budget was
wonderfully managed.

practically an unknown, just about
spells the finish Of the A. Z. F..
champion.
Martin at one time was consid-
cred the logical contender for Jack
Dempsey's title. Pitted against BIZ
Brennan he made a great fight. He
lost a 1b-round decision. but ring
side critics said had he been more
aggressive he would have won.
Then came a bout with Frank
Moran. He stopped the Pittsburgher
In seven rounds. He did Il in a
clean-cut manner. This victory,
against Brennan. caused fight ex-
perts TO figure that in a year he
would be ready for Dempsey.
Then came a series OF setbacks,
the greatest OF all being his poor
showing against Joe Burke. This
fellow Burke. by the way. Is a pro-
tege OF Jimmy Dunn. who made a
champion OF Johnny Kilbane and
who now has Bryan Downey and
Carl Tremaine ar his hesdliners.
Evening journal., 1922-05-02

Shortly after the Moran nght.
Martin was matched with Fay
Keiser, rated as just an ordinary
light heavyweight. To the great
surprise OF the sporting world,
Keiser handed him a neat licking.
The story is. that Martin com
planned OF eve trouble after the
bout. He attributed his defeat hy
Keiser to inability to properly focus.
His manager. Jimmy Bronson,
took him to a prominent specialist
who treated him for three months.
While still under treatment. Martin
was unfortunate enough TO run his
automobile over an embankment
into a tree.
Martin was badly injured in tho
auto accident, and Il was believed
that he would never fight again. On
recovering he resumed training and
seemed 10 be in old-time conditions.
II would seem that something
must be radically wrong with Mar
Tin. for him TO go back as rapidly
as his recent fights indicate. Good
eyes are most essential TO a nghter
and It appears as II Martin is handi-
capped IN this respect. The defeat
by Joe Burke was the climax TO q

QUERIES
OF ALL SORT
ABOUT SPORT
BY BILLY EVANS

Does a golfer do his game any
particular harm II he fails TO OBJ
serve the stymie rule. when playing
in friendly competition?-N. l.. ID.
In playing any sport, It is always
best to adhere strictly TO the rules.
The rules were made to govern the
game. and If you are playing it. then
follow the rules as closely as pos
sible.
The reason for this is that in
tournament play the rules are al
WAYS literally interpreted. And
even II one never gets 10 be more
than the ordinary golfer, there are
usually several tournaments every
year that he wants 10 enter.
II in ordinary plays he doesn't ad-
here to the rules. he is rather at sea
in tournament play.
A great majority OF golfers play
for the recreation and exercise they
derive from the game and ordinarily
they don't give a hang about the
rules.
Usually when one player happenS
TO stymie another. in the spirit Of
fair play he moves his ball in order
that his oppoent may have clear
way to the cup. OF course that is
contrary to the rules.
Really there is no particular harm
in that. The danger is in throwing
one off his game in match or tour
nament play.
All possible situations must be
covered by the playing code. The
stymie is one of them. 1t is really
best to live up to II, since in the
end. the luck OF the green will even
itself UP over a given period.
