It is not surprising that the mem bers of the Congressi onaI delegation should return to the States after their hurried tour through a DOT tion of Alaska and find themselves unable to answer the question, What is the matter with the Ter ritory?" Alaskans themselves can not answer the question even after a residence of many years in the Territory. But 1t is pleasing to find a growing sentiment among the lawmakers in favor of more cen- tralized federal control. That, in the opinion of The News, is the solu- tion of at least one important AL askan problems. A federal board of control, composed at least partly of Alaskans and permanently locat- ed in Alaska would go long way toward removing many of the an- noyances of living and doing busi- ness in Alaska. It is to be hoped that President Harding will be simil- arly impressed when he visits Alaska next month. Perhaps his influence and the influence of those Con- gressmen who were so recently in Alaska, will be sufficient 10 over come the opposition of cabinet of ficers and bureau supernumeraries who thus far have been able to pre- vent any reform in the handling of Alaskan affairs. Solve the Alaskan problems in the order of their inn portance, and do it, and there will be nothing the matter with Alaska.

The announcement of Henry Ford that he does not intend to be a candidate for the presidency at the next election will have the effect of clearing the political atmosphere. He probably spoke the truth when he said he was too much occupied with his own affairs to run for office and he is sensible enough to realize that his phenominal success as 9 builder of cheap automobiles does not nee essarily if him to manage the affairs of a great nation. But it is 8 good thing to have such a won derful business man in the country, ready to apply his business methods to governmental management should uhe need arise. IL has tendency to keep presidents and party leaders hewing to the line with reasonable accuracy. So long as Mir. Ford can be influential to that extent, without holding office, it would be an un- reasonable request to ask him to put his business affairs to one side to take up an entirely new work at Washington, where he would find his usefulness limited by a fanciful Congress.

for the Illinois State open singles

Tilden played marvellous tennis, but
the untiring persistence and dogged
determination of the fast moving
Spaniard wore him down.
AlonZo's cross court drives were
perfect and his rallies to the net
forced Tilden to extend himself on
every shot. The brilliance of the
Spaniard pleased the gallery of the
society folks. His placements and
wonderful driving force gave Tildcn
one of his worst defeats.

SIKH IN SECOND

Paris. July Shy A. P.)-"Bat-
ling" Sikh today knocked out Mai eel
Miles, a French heavyweight pugi-
list, in the second round of what was
to have been a 15-round battle.
Niles in May was knocked out in
the eighth round by Georges Car
pentier, the light heavyweight. He
was considered by followers Of the
ring to have been Frances best
heavyweight.
Skis hard head and his "steer'
ribs proved immune to an onslaught
from Miles in the first round. The
white man carried the battle to the
negro throughout the session, with
Sikh bent nearly double in a crouch
and assimilating everything Miles
handed out to him. The judgment of
those about the ringside was that
Miles was sure to be the winner OF
one sided contest.
Over confident from his showing,
Miles came from his corner at the
clang of the gong for the second
round as if it was his intention inn
mediately to end the battle. The
shifty Senegal man, however, went
into a clinch and pushed Miles into
a corner. Then, as they broke away,
Sikh swung his left to Miles Jaw.
Miles went down, face foremost, as
though he had been struck with an
axe.
Before the fight Sikh was enraged
over the decision rendered yesterday
nv the Judge of the civil tribunal, CIV
ing Edmond Lapart an injunction
forbidding the promoters to pay over
to Sikh any part of the purse Or
stakes accounting from today's match.

decision, was fighting mostly 1or

best ball was 60 three under par.
