Star Fighters of Ali Time

Star Fighters of Ali Time
Picking all-star combinations in
any sport is merely a matter of
personal opinion.
For instance, no two football ex-
perts ever selected exactly the same
all-star aggregation as the last word
in. the grid game.
Recently in chat with Jim Cor
bett 1 had him name the greatest
fighters in each division as he saw
them. He backed up each choice
with logical reasoning.
When Jim Corbett was champion
Of the world, the outstanding figure.
in the heavyweight division, Eddie
Graney, was rated one of the great
est, if not the greatest, fight referee.
The other day Graney, in Sunset,
picked an all-star boxing team as
seen through the eyes of the referee.
Surely no one is better to judge
the relative merits of fighters than
the official who gives the final de-
cision on them.
In their selections both COrbett and
Graney make it evident they com

Svehla cabinet. For the first time
the Czech bourgeoisie has united with
the German bourgeoisie into one gov
eminent. The German bourgeoisie. in
the face of the growth of the revolu-
tionary forces, has repudiated the
struggle OF the national German mi
nority. Two members of the German
party are included in the Svehla gov
eminent. A temporary unity of the
bourgeoisle has been accomplished IN
the vain hope OF finding a solution for
the Czech crisis.
Czecho-slovakis has been "stabil-
tied" with vengeance. II has gone
thru an intensified period Of Industrial
ization, but has conquered no foreign
markets, and It cannot compete with
Germany. The result has been a pas
sive balance OF trade. The home mar
ket has been badly cut into because
OF the decreased buying capacity Of
the workers and the peasants, The
high taxes on the latter, the mass I'M

alton policy of the government, which
threw the burden OF the budget onto
tie shoulders of the workers and the
peesantry, and the constantly mount

In addition, the steady growth Of the
Communist Party-which not only
leads the struggle OF the workers and
peasants, but also OF the oppressed
Hungarian, Slovak and German ma

revolution into the hearts OF the bour,

the Cse0ho-Slogak Communist Party

The British Empire
Conference

IT is difficult to get any detailed and
= authoritative news from the British
empire conference which Is being held
behind closed doors in London, but II
can be said with certainty that even
less than the previous conference Of
1923 will It result IN a strengthening
OF the empire hammered out by Dis
raeli and Joseph Chamberlain. So
clear is this that It has become a
commonplace to hear Of the disInte-
grafton OF the once mighty British
imperial domain.
The opening OF the conference was
marked by the fear OF the demand OF
the Union OF South Africa, represent
ed by the old General Hertzog for a
more independent existence than Is
afforded It with the present relation,

from the empire press banquet servo
