nation of the report that a three

Despite the vigorous denials by

confirmed at the local American

From the information at hand, it
appears Boston is to get Pcckinpaugh'

Ehmke and Todt will go to the Yam

One thing is made plain here. how

JOHNSON

NEWARK, n. j., Oct. 2S.-The
New Jersey state boxing commission
has decided it will take no action
against Floyd johnson, heavyweight
boxer, who was knocked out in some
two minutes of fighting with Harry
Wills, negro heavyweight, in the First
Regiment Armory here last night.
Platt Adams, deputy boxing commits
sioner in New Jersey. resented the
criticism of the commission for ar
ranging the bout.
JUST "PUNCH-DRUNK.'
81 heard those cries of Drunk that
went up when johnson was carried
out of the ring" he said, and ] hur-
ried to the dressing room to investi-
gate. / am thoroughly satisfied that
if Johnson was drunk he was drunk
only as a result of the punching he
received at the hands OF Wills. He
was still dazed when | spoke to him
in the dressing room.
Certainly it was a rotten show. but
we thought johnson was capable of
doing better than he did. It was quite
apparent that Wills knew he had his
number, for, instead Of playing eau
tiOus game as he almost always does,
he sailed right in from the start. He
rarely does that unless he's sure Of
his man.
NO CROOKEDNESS.
There was nothing crooked about
the fight. / am positive of that now.
| am certain that if Wills had fol-
lowed his usual tactics and not taken
the aggressive from the start, John
son might have lasted a couple of
rounds.
Personally, I'm disguised with these
sO-called champions. You can get n
much better exhibition. nine times out
of ten, with the smaller boxers"

CLEANUP ACTIVITY
URGED BY OYSTER
Householders and Property
Owners Told Importance of
~ Weeks Observance.

Commissioner Oyster today appeal
ed to all householders and property
owners to cooperate in making sue
cess of the Cleanup, Paint-up week,
proclaimed by the Commissioners as
the period from April IT to May 2.
The Health Department, which is
supervised by Commissioner Oyster,
has just completed a survey of the
alleys, TO improve sanitary conditions
in them, and the Commissioner felt
this should be followed by a general
appeal to all ashingtonians to help
make the city more attractive this
Summer.
The proclamation for Cleanup week
was sent out by Commissioners Ru-
dolph. Oyster and Bell today and reads,
in part. as follows:
Whereas the Spring season is gen
orally accepted as the proper time to
clean up and repair residences and
outbuildings, hang awnings, remove
rubbish and generally beautify prem
ises. and
Whereas the City of Washington,
as the National Capital, should fur
nish an example in this. as in all other
movements looking toward civic i'm
provement.
Whereas, our parks public grounds
and private premises should be kept
free of all sorts of trash and rubbish,
Therefore, we, the Commissioners
of the District OF Columbia. in regu-
lar meeting assembled. do hereby pro-
claim a Cleanup week for the Dis
trict of Columbia, between the dates
of April 27 to May 2. inclusive.
During this period we call upon
the residents of Washington to clean
up theiE premises. rid yards, alleys
and vacant lots of trash, repair houses
and outbuildings and otherwise beau
tify such premises. We also call upon
all civic and trade organizations to
assist in this work by calling atten-
ton to it at their meetings and by
aiding in a movement to keep our
parks and streets clear of waste paper
and other trash and rubbish.
We believe that such concerted
action on the part of our residents
will result in making Washington the
cleanest and most beautiful city in
the United States and matter of
pride to the Nation"

BELGRADE. Jugoslavia, April %.
Three members of the British Par
lament, who arrived Yesterday from
Sofia, Bulgaria. asserted that they
were convinced several hundred per-
sons were killed without trial and on

cent bomb explosion in the Cathedral
I'm Sofia. Those who arrived were

We employed all the influence at
our disposal to prevent the militarists
from massacring men and women ap-
pretended in the course of recent
police operations. Thousands of per-
sons suspected of Communist tend
encieS or of belonging to the Left
Socialist party were held in custody.
"On Monday, after the explosion,
we saw 40 arrests within five minutes.
And this continued four days after
the police began their search.
Although it was difficult to obtain
figures. it is said the arrests num-
bered 5000.
Public opinion outside Bulgaria
ought to be brought TO bear in the
interest of justice, that the persons
detained be fairly tried, so that m
nocent persons will not be punished
on mere presumption, for it is evi-
dent that 5000 or more could not
have been implicated in the outrage
of the 18th of April.
During the last four days we were
IN Bulgaria, we interviewed ministers,
high officials and the chief of the
Democratic, Social-Democratic and
Agrarian parties, as well as indepen-
dent persons, among them foreign
residents.
After serious reflections, we are
firmly convinced that the outrage was
the direct outgrowth of the methods
of the government toward the opposi-

ID. 4. r. Balloting Slo,o and Careful
Process to AUOid InuaIidating Votes

Candidates with a big &C. occupy
the minds of the delegates. Long
before suffrage was given to women
the d. A. r. had mastered the art of
casting the ballot successfully. They
vote by secret ballot now, and elab-
crate arrangements for the exercise
of their franchise is made. The
president general always appoints a
chairman of tellers, and she has work
ing with her a group of women from
all States. The candidates are always
accorded the privilege OF naming two
tellers to represent them in the count.
The task of counting the ballots is
not a slight one. Before delegate
is allowed to vote the credential com.
mittee checks her name on it's lists,
and often rights to votes are chal-
lenged. and the credential committee
has to deal with contests quite as
much as national political parties.

Long Lines Wait Turn.
Long lines of voters sometimes
stand patiently for three or four hours
awaiting their turn to vote. With
the ceremony and precautions thrown
around the voting it is a slow proc
ess, but the sturdy spirit of their
revolutionary forefathers seems to
sustain them in the ordeal.
Some years ago voting by machine
was inaugurated. 1t did not prove
an entire success, for some of the
women unaccustomed to the mechan-
ism pulled the wrong levers and
there was a certain amount of con
fusion. Now the simpler method has
proven most effective, and considering
the fact that about 1000 women will
vote this morning, there will be only
a very small portion of invalid ballots.

BREAKING BERG.
WASHES SHIP
FROM ROCKS
Bowdoin, Grounded, Saved
From Ledge in Choppy
Sea by Wave.
BY the Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Ground-
ed for more than ten hours on rock
ledge, finally to be washed off by the
swell from a bursting iceberg, the Bow
dom, staunch craft of the Macmillan
artic expedition, emerged unscathed
and continued on her return trip from
northern waters with the Peary.
The grounding occurred Sunday
afternoon, more than mile off shore
in Murchison Sound. A delayed mess
age received by the National Geo
graphic Society and signed by Com
mander Macmillan, relates that to
save the Bowdoin from pounding in
choppy sea after striking the ledge,
"a steel barrels Of gasoline were
thrown overheard. All but six of the
barrels were recovered later.
STRANDED BY TIDE.
While awaiting response to a sum
mons for aid from the Peary, which
eventually got tow line aboard the
Bowdoin, the vessel took on a 80 de-
gree list as the tide ebbed and the
decks could be trayersed only with
the aid of ropes.
At u 80 o'clock the message said,
just as the Peary, at flood tide, was
ready to tighten the tow line, eve
were washed off by the swell caused
by a bursting iceberg" Commander
Macmillan reported that his inspec-
ton of the Bowdoin's hull showed
that aside from several small bits
torn from her oak shoe, she is other
wise unchanged"
The Peary, after arriving at the
scene, the message related, broad
cast a special radio program and Es-
kimos and crew amused themselves
while waiting for the tide to come in. "
WEATHER is BAD.
Since putting in at Murchison
Sound, where the party's main Eskimo
guide was put ashore, the two ships
have fought weather conditions even
worse than those encountered on the
northward journey in making further
SprogreSs southwark.
BY Wednesday morning, another
message received by the society said,
the Peary had reached the harbor at
Akpahni. A blizzard had been raging
for "a hours, with a fifty mile wind
and high seas. The Bowdoin then was
reported in the lee of Saunders Island,
not far from Booth Sound.
Since the Wednesday message, how
ever, both ships have passed Booth
Sound, the society announced and arc
entering the most difficult stage of the
