the bare outline of the potential con.
tent of this conception, and in the
great majority Of cases the existing

notion as to constitute a totally diff

proceeds to review the services of
certain libraries that make them eff1-
eient community intelligence services.
Though he picks out as worthy of
mention by way of illustration GER
tam Classes of services rendered BY

Italian Credit to, Poland Is Given Prominence in Financial Times of London.

London, March 22.--Giying the de- tails of the projected Italian loan to Poland the Financial Times says it is the first foreign loan ever raised in Italy and the first Polish loan ever raised abroad.
 It will amount to 400, GOO, ,00O lire, bear seven per cent interest and have an issue price of %. The plan calls for sinking fund providing for re- demption in 20 years. The proceeds the paper says, will be spent for peaceful objects associated with the reconstruction of Poland.
 The remarkable provision is made that should the Polish government through armed invasion be unable to fulfill it's agreement the Italian government will be allowed to fly it's own flag over the various offices of the tobacco mon- oply and carry out the terms of the loan under Italian protection.
 It is also provided that while the loan is outstanding Poland must par chase certain quantities of Italian grown tobacco annually.

TENNESSEE RIVER
General Branch Urges This Sum
To Complete Survey

WASHINGTON, March S1.-Gen-
eral Branch, chief of government en-
gineers, appeared this afternoon before
the rivers and harbOrs committee of the
House, urging an appropriation Of
$780, 600 with which to complete the
survey Of the Tennessee river.
Two hundred thousand dollars, the
last session, was voted to survey the
northern stretch of the Tennessee. The
survey was made and already there are
IL applications for the construction OF
dams and water power sites.
For the completion Of the survey to
the mouth, an additional $30O,0 900 is
necessary, according to General Branch.
The object of the survey is the ascer-
tainment of the water power and navi-
CATION possibilities of the river. The
information will have an important
bearing on the Henry Ford offer for
Muscle Shoals, friends of that offer de-
clared today. This afternoon Prof. w.

STRIBLING DECISIVELY WHIPS
CHAMPION MIKE M'TIGUE
Wins Clean Verdict,
But Fails To Score
K. 0. For Title

NEWARK, N. j., March 31.-tBy
the Associated Press. William l..
("Young") Stribling, Georgia school
boy-ringman, battered his way to a
spectacular victory tonight over Mike
McTigue' worlds light-heavyweight
champion, but his youthful eagerness
cost him a golden chance to lift the
coveted crown with his triumph.
A record crowd of nearly $4,000 in
the First Regiment armory saw the
strapping Georgia youngster decisively
outpoint his veteran rival from start
to finish and have the champion on
the verge of knockout in the tenth
round. But McTigue weathered the
storm and snatched back the title laur-
els that Stribling had within his grasp.
Under the New Jersey no-decision laws
a championship cannot change hands
except by a foul or knockout and when
McTigue was on his feet at the end of
the twelfth and final round, his crown.
though at a disjointed angle, remained
on his head.
Wins Every Round
Stribling, fighting the most sensation
al and determined battle of his me-
teoric career, won every one of the -
rounds, in the opinion of a majority
of newspapermen, with his slashing,
whirlwind attack. The 19-year-old
youngster made a gallant bid for world
title laurels, but his overanexity at
the crucial moment cost him the chance
to gain that goal.

II ARE INDICTED
IN LIQUOR Ring
AT WASHINGTON
Trial May Reveal Init
mate Details Of Capt.
tai Life

WASHINGTON, March 31.-Exist-
ence of big liquor ring here is charged
in a series of indictments accusing 27
persons of violating the prohibition
law.
The indictments name three deputy
United States marshals, lieutenant of
police, a sergeant Of marines, a member
of the Union station police force, two
Pullman porters and Mrs. William III.
Simpson, who cater to society functions
here, and Il score of others.
The three deputy Inarskals are Pat
rick II. Barteman, Charles Marshall and
John B. Newman.
Inclusion of Simpson in the indict-
ments attracted unusual interest be-
cause he is widely known in exclusive
society circles where he is popular as
a caterer. He has arranged dinners
for some of the best known people in
the capital. 1t is probable that the
trial will produce testimony that will
throw much light on the way fashion
able society here provides wines and
liquors for it's dinner tables.
Pullman pOrters are charged with
transporting the liquor in suitcases
from Florida, turning it over to agents
of the ring here. Some of those in
dieted were arrested in recent raids in
two downtown office buildings where
they maintained well-eQuipped suites
with files and card indexes of their
wealthy clientele. Three of their girl
telephone operators are also named in
the indictments.
