a Is round match In Madison Square
Garden, December Is, 1920. 1t was
the second time within four months
that Dempsey had successfully de-
Tended his crown. Billy Miske of ST.
Paul was the first victim.
A short right hook to the solar
plexus started Brennan on his way to
defeat after a game stand against the
champion. AS Brennan crouched win
cling with pain Dempsey stepped in
and hooked his left into Brennan's
right ribs. That was the end.
More than once during the first II
rounds it looked as If the challenger
might succeed in driving home de-
cisive blow. In the second round Bren-
nan Jared Dempsey to his heels with
a right uppercut but he was too sur
prised to follow up the advantages.
After that blow Dempsey was wary.
The story Of the 18th round fol-
lows:
"As Brennan danced around Demp-
sey shot straight lefts into his face.
Brennan tented with left and found
the champions jaw with an inside
right. The crowd roared encourage
ment to the challenger. Dempsey's left
shot out thrice in succession and
Brennan's head bobbed like a cork.
After clinch Dempsey landed a
heavy right under the heart and Bren-
nan bent almost double. Brennan
sought to clinch but the champion
stepped away and then leaped In again
swinging his left to the ribs and step
ping back as Brennan went to his
knees. AS the count of ten finished
Brennan staggered to his feet and fell
intoi the ropes. His seconds carried
him to his corner"

Bonus and Tax Reduction.

Although it Is well recognized that
IL is impossible both to have the cake
and to eat it. too, disposition pre-
walls, it would appear, in the House
Of Representatives. possibly in the
Senate as we'll. to enact both bonus
legislation and tax reduction: In other
words, an effort Is to be made to
unmeasured sum, and to lower the
revenues of the government by a re-
vision Of the tax scale. If this is to
be the program 1t is undeniably logi-
cal to proceed In order. That is, one
or the other measure must be put
forward first. They cannot well be
combined There are two possible
methods of procedure, to pass a tax
revision bill with closely determined
result in revenue reduction, followed
by a bonus bill measured to the
changed revenue situation. Or to pass
a bonus bill first, followed by a tax.
reduction bill measured in its effect
according to the prospective require
ments Of the bonus.
The latter of these two courses, 1t
is now evident, will be followed at
least In the first stage of House COM
mittee action. 1t is argued that the
bonus is pledged. and that Congress
must grant 1t; that what is left Of the
Treasury surplus after tho bonus Is
paid, with perhaps some special pro.
