Good hitting means control OF the

that Johnson lacks. Probably the

Of hammer. Give Johnson six
months at the anvil and 1t Is a

A majority Of the great hitters of
the ring developed the knaclx

a similar nature.
One of the chief reasons why
there are so few good hitters at
present compared with the great
number in the old days is that
modern machinery has done away
with hand labor. Modern boxers
are merely gymnasium products,
They lack the toughness that can
be gained only through hard work.

STIR IS u J SE !. BY EXPULSION IF. GE ERMAN OFF |C|AL
French Charge President of Rhennish Prussia Wrote Im- pertinent Letter to Bel
 gian General

DUESSELDORF, Feb. 19.-tBy As sociated s.)-The expulsion of pr. Crustzner, president of Rhennish Prussia, for writing an "imperti- nent" letter to General Beaussain Belgian commander at Duisburg, re- moves from the occupied area a prominent German official, and has caused something of stir among the civilian population.
 The letter that resulted in the ar rest of Dr. Cruetzner was in protest against the appointment of Oberbur gomaster Jarres of Duisburg. Dr. GruetZner in his communication is alleged to have referred to the forces of occupation as bandits"
 Gelsenkirchen's fine of 100000, ,050 marks. assessed upon the town as a penalty for the shooting of two French soldiers, has been paid out of the 110,Q00,000 paper marks which the French seized when they took over the railroad station and the Bathaus. The French also appropri- ated 250 GOO, ,000 marks in Trier It is believed that this money was to have been used for the benefit of the strik- ing railroad men.
 The French will turn it to their own railroad operation account.
 The German police at Essen are to return to duty and will be allowed to retain their arms. The French will remain established at police head quarters, which they took over after the restaurant brawl of last week.

 No change was made in the appro- priations for the Muscle Shoals power project, for which both Senate and House made a provision of S6.- 99S,00O. with authorization of Slo,- 800, ,o00 additional.
 Only few differences between the House and Senate had remained for adjustment and the conferees' action practically completed the measure, which is the last of the unfinished appropriation bills of the session.

Conditions Worse at Boston Than in Many Years-Fuel Famine

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. 1s.-The New England coast Is as near bound as 1t has been in many years. The cold spell of the past few days froze up small harbors from Maine to Rhode Island and today the United States Photographic office sent out a warning that ice conditions were becoming serious and aids to navi- gatlon might be displaced.
 In Boston harbor, conditions were the worst in five years. Tugs were kept busy as ice breakers.
 The ice embargo on the Maine coast was most general. Island settlements and coast towns there have been without communication in some cases for weeks.

DEBT SETTLEMENT
 WILL BECOME LAW IN PRESENT MONTH
House Ways and Means Con- mittee Assures Immediate Action by Accepting
 Senate Amendments

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The agreement between the American and British governments under which the British will have s2 years Tor tine payment of it's s4,6J0, ,0Oo,0e0 war debt will become effective this month. This was made certain today, the House ways and means committee in- structtng Chairman Fordney to move tomorrow in tie House to accept the Senate changes to the amendment to the debt funding act giving congress sionaI approval Of the agreement. The committee vote was unanimous and the public vote is expected to be practically so.
 Direct action by the House Will make conference with the Senate unnecessary. and will save consider able time. Immediately after the House vote the bill will be made ready for President Harding, who is expected to sign it in few days,
 Several republican members of tne committee were not wholly satisfied with either of the Senate amend ments,, but they voted to accept them because they thought it would be unwise to throw the bill into confer ence and thus make it subject to un- certain.ies which surround all impor- tant legislation in the closing days of Congress
 Chief objection was to the Robin son amendment, requiring congress sional. approval of the settlements with theother debtor nations, the ar gument being advanced that this might slow up future negotiations because Congress will not be in ses- sion again until next December. The Harris amendment requiring the ap- pointment of three democrats to the commission also was not entirely satisfactory to some of the majority
 Formal drafting of indenture which will comprise the terms of the debt funding arrangement between the Cnited States and Great Britain haa been begun, it was stated officially today at the treasury.
 Definite decision has not been reached by the two governments as to the amounts ct the bonds, but it appeared today to be a foregone con- clusion that they would oe the largest ever to come from the bureau of engraving here.
 Indications are that the largest of the let necessary to cover the debt of more than four and hais biliion eai.ars would be for one billion dal- lars. bit the rlan is only tente;ite.
