DAVENPORT TELLS
 OF OFFER FOR TIP
Says S1,50O Has Been Bid for
 Series Star Reading

Clifton F. Davenport, New Brit ain siargazer, today produced a telegram addressed ont of Boston. Mass, by the Columbian Athletic club, offering him S1.500 10 furnish the club with an exclusive astro- logical report on the proba out come of the world series. and Mir. Davenport informed friends that he has rejected the offer.
 Astrologist Davenport first came into sporting prominence prior to the Dempsey -Tunney bout when he predicted Dempsey would win in the seventh round. II was in that round that Dempsey knocked Tun- n"y 10 the floor where the cham plon remained several seconds more than the prescribed ten and out" In explanation, Davenport declared on tn" following day that he had overlooked tn" dog star" q plahrt appearing in the skies from August 25 to Thanksgiving day, which has Ia tendency 10 interfere with and upset normal star readings.
 Mr. Davenport stated this after noon he has written the club de- claring il against his principles to use a scientific or astrological fact 10 encourage the practice of gam bling. Without wishing to sermon- lze, he reminded the club, he said, of words spoken by the Saviour 10 the Chaldcans: 70 ye hypocrites Ye read the fates in the skies. but the signs of the time ye fail 10 diSCcrn."
 In order to determine by the stars what team is to win, he eXplained,- i II would be necessary 10 find date and place of birth of every player and study the skies with particular reference 10 these birthdays This would be q task requiring him 10 re main up several nights, and even if he felt disposed to do so. he could not furnish the prediction before the series began. he said
 Mir. Davenport, who is a stock securities salesman was asked why he has not the same conscientious objection to handling stock as to dealing in world series tips" since, according 10 the interviews claims. there is an element of gambling in playing the market. Davenport countered with a detailed story of the inception and growth of the util- itleS he represents. their stock divi- dnnds over a period of years, the DrOSpcCtuS of eXpanSiOns etc then furnished printed material to sub stantiate his claims. and concluded with declaration--"So you see. that's not gamble, that's q sure thing"

thing fundamental from finding its
way into the public debate. Pressure
is being exerted in a hundred differ
ent hidden ways. In far corners of
Havana diplomats are being coerced,
deals are being consummated-all of
them for the purpose of preventing
anything from happening at the Sixth
Pan-American Conference. For if
anything really happens the confer
ence will be wrecked.
Argument of Guns.
The real ram American debate is a
war. Everyone recognizes that the
essential Pan-American problems are
being debated, not in Havana, but
with voices of musketry and machine
gun fire, around the foothills of FL
Chipote in Nicaragua.
The U. S. imperialist war against
Nicaragua is the essence of "Pan-
Americanism" as Wall Street and
Washington see it. All Latin-Am
ca knows that it is not merely a
Nicaraguan war, but war which
concerns Latin America as a whole.
The fate Of Nicaragua threatens
every country in Latin America.
That is why the United States
Senate, in the interests of American
imperialism, has agreed not to con-
slider any resolutions of criticism
against U. s. Intervention in Nicar-
aqua until after the. Havana Confer
ence.
