PLENTY OF BUNK
IN DEMPSEY TALK
Gibbons and Firpo ON Pro-
gram, Says Farrell.
By HENRY L. FARRELD

NEW YORK, March l3.-Jack
Dempsey will defend the heavyweight
championship twice before the col
lege boys start despoiling each other
next fall.
The champion will fight Tommy Glib
bons and Angel Firpo. All talk to the
contrary is bunk for a purpose.
Dempsey's sudden backwardness
about taking on a couple of jobs that
would be worth more than a half
million dollars is but a part of the
work he has to do to get the Job.
Jack Kearns has been saying that
Dempsey is going into picture that
will keep him busy until the first OF
August. Dempsey wouldn't make
$500, 900 out of that picture because
his stun is pretty well done. He would
make $4,000 out of Gibbons fight
and he wouldn't have to put in more
than five weeks work at it.

Evening star., 1924-09-21

Achievements of the National Asso-
citation of Retail Druggists show that
the association is closely related to
the public welfare.
Whenever a problem of law max
ing or law enforcement arises. 1t is
usually found that the public interest
and the interest of the retail drug
gist are both affected" says state
ment of the organization.
In every revenue bill proposed in
Congress. from the time of the
Spanish American War UP to and in
cluding the revenue act of 1924. the
National Association of Retail Drug
gists has been called upon to oppose
a tax on the peoples medicine. A
the tax on medicine usually has been
associated with the tax on toilet
articles and perfumery, illogically and
unjustly, the National Association OF
Retail Druggists has found 1T neces-
sary to make the fight in behalf of
the people in relation to the taxation
of both these classes Of articles.
Sometimes its efforts have succeeded
and at other times they have not.
Whatever the result, the fact re-
mains that the public generally has
been indifferent on all occasions. The
interest of the public was as much
affected as the interest or The retail
druggist, but this did not seem tc
concern the public. The work before

cit may not be generally known,
but it is a fact, that where regula-
tions for the enforcement of Fed
eral laws are being made or amended
the public invariably is not repre-
sented, except in so far as representa-
tion through the administrative OH
GERS of the Government is concerned.
To the inexperienced. this might be
all sufficient, but to those familiar
with practice and procedure in off1-
cial Washington it is far from suff1-
cient.
THE fact should not be overlooked
that the National Association of Re-
tail Druggists is only what it's name
implies-a national organization. 1t
would not be fair to State and local
pharmaceutical associations If full
credit were not given them for the
important and indispensable part they
play in carrying out the policies of
the National Association OF Retail
Druggists in Washington 1t might
be said in truth, that the national
body is on the firing line at the front,
while the State and local associations
