The Genaro Decision.

tcopyrIght. 1898. By Star COMPANY,

TAROLD ATTERIDGE, famous
playwright, and furious nstlc
tan, presents this:
Fancho Villa boxed Johnny
Buff.
Johnny Buff boxed Jack shar-
key.
Jack sharkey boxed Johnny Dun
Johnny Dundee boxed Benny Leon
Benny Leonard boxed Ted-Kid
Ted,tSid Lewis boxed Georges Car
pentier.
Georges Carpenter boxed Jack
Dempsey
villa and Buff are flyweights.
Eharkey Is a bantam, Dundee q
130-pounder, Leonard q lightweight,
Ted-Kid- Lewis q welter, Carpenter
light heavyweight, and Dempsey
heavyweight
IF the thing were worked out
backwards over the scale, Atteridge
says 1t would be logical to match
the 110spound Villa against the 195-
pound Dempsey.
It Is such matters that divert the
minds OF great men, relieving the
tedium of weightier thoughts.
RTHE writer named frankie Gem
arc as the best flyweight in
America at q time when Genaro
was scarcely known outside his own
neighborhood.
The writer devoted much space
months ago. calling attention to the
injustice of the proceeding of match
ing Pancho Villa against Johnny
Buff for the American f1yweight
title after GenarO had twice beaten
villa.
IN short. we gave ourseIf the
appearances OF being prejudiced in
Genaross favor We consider the
Italian great little boxer. None
the less, we think VILLA should have
had the decision over Genaro at the
close OF their fifteen-round bout
Thursday night.
THE writer Is Inclined to think
the difference between the ny,
weights Thursday night was repre-.
sented BY Genaro's long iay-off as
against villas activity OF late. that
Genaro from now on il likely to
inrrove beyond the Filipino.
However, boxing bouts are not
determined on potentialties. They
are4or should be- Judged on what
happens in the ring. Without cues.
tioning the honesty OF the Judges
Thursday, this writer does not see
how they arrived at their conclu-
sion.
Still, many other persons per.
haps better Qualified than the writ
er thought the decision entirely COR
rect. It is the same old difference
Of opinion that makes horse races
and prize fights.
VILLA, or rather Villas manager,
stole march on Genaro when he
got the match with buff that gave
villa the title of American fly
weight champion.
He has the opportunity of steal
ing another march by sliding over
to England and grabbing a match
with Jimmy Wilde, holder OF the
worlds championship in that di.
vision.
This writer is informed by good
judges that Wilde, once a great
little fighter. is all done and that
any youngster who can get match
with him Is apt to beat him.
These American titles do not
mean much, and il is only since
Wilde and Georges Carpenter won
their worlds titles that any stress
has been placed on them over here.
In this we aped the English, who
have their own home titles because
they have not been able to develop
men good enough to win worlds

STENOGRAPHER LACK
In FEDERAL OFFICES
Shortage Due to Wrong assign
ment, Announces Civil Serv-

A shortage in Stenographers for the
government departments here has
come about through the practice or
many departments assigning to other
kinds of clerical work appolntees
from the stenographer register, ac-
cording to the Civil Service Commits
sion.
The general demand for stenogra-
pliers "and the inadequate salaries Of
fered by the government" a state
ment issued by the commission today
declared, keep the number of eligtbles
at a low figure. but the other factor
adds materially to the chronic short
age.
Ihe commission points ont that by
the use of other registers to fill cleri-
cal positions which do not require
stenographic ability the stenographer
register could be conserved. The COM
mission declared:
I'm view of such wrong assign
ments. the President issued on June
80 1919, at the request of the Civil
Service Commission, an executive
order which permits employees. ap-
pointed through the Stenographic ex-

HARDING POSTAGE
STAMP In DEMAND
Postmaster General Requests Blu.
reau to Expedite Printing
of the Series.

Such great demand has been made
for the Harding postage stamp that
Postmaster General New has found it
necessary to authorize the bureau of
engraving and printing to supplement
the flat-bed process with rotary
presses, hitherto used only in printing
one-cent stamps.
Stamps from the rotary presses will
go on sale at the philatelic agency
at the Washington city post Office
Wednesday. Perforations will be made
in one operation instead of two. 1t Is
anticipated that the stamps to go on
sale Wednesday, owing to the method
of printing, will have added interest
to collectors.

REPORT ON STRIKE
CAUSES CRITICIZED
U. S. Coal Commission State
ment Non-Union Brief, Mine
Workers Declare.

The report of the United States Coal
Commission on causes OF strikes was
attacked by the United Mine Workers
OF America yesterday as a statement
reading very much like well pre-
pared brief in behalf of the non
union bituminous coal operators of
West Virginia and northeastern Ken
tucky."
Those union operators" the
statement said, should Immediately
mold a meeting and give a rising vote
OF thanks TO the commission for that
report which, it asserted, clearly
attempts to place upon the United
Mine Workers of America the blame

fields

why did not the commission" the
miners union asked. declare the
non union coal companies have no
right under the law of the Constitu-
tion to use force and coercion to
prevent their men from voluntarily
asserting their right to affiliate with
q labor union?
"The commission knows very well
that the only reason the organized
miners of West Virginia have not
been organized long ago is that the
private armed guards and gunmen are
that the men do not get an opportu-
nifty to Join the union.
AIIeSe Gunmen Methods.
The commission devoted much space
TO telling of crimes which it says
We're committed by union miners, but
IL did not even mention the scores of
crimes of company thugs and gunmen
that were brought directly to the
attention OF the commission by the
United Mine Workers of America"
The union denied that it had paid
the destruction of the Willis Branch
Coal Company's mines, as stated in
the report.

The new designs, which have been
under consideration for many months,
and have been carefully worked out at

Mellon, 1t was announced yesterday at
the Treasury
At first the new designs will affect
only United States notes, silver certifi-
Gates and federal reserve notes in de-
nominations UP to 500, with the ex-
ception of the unpopular" 81 note, and
1t is hoped later to extend the new de-
signs-amounting almost TO a program
of standardization--to national bank
notes and ultimately TO the rare gold
certificates.
Working to make the Job of the
counterfeiter less remunerative, Treas
