Many Ring Fans
Doubt Jack Has
Forsaken Boxing
BIZ UHjtcd Press

BIZ CHitcd Press
NEW YORK, Feb. MANY fans
in New York boxing circles are dis
inclined to believe that Jack Demp-
sey has forsaken boxing, which he
helped build from an ordinary sport
to million dollar business.
Dempsey is quoted from Gos
Angeles as saying:
Il may never fight again. I can't
tell just now. I don't know what l
am going to do. I may fight in Sep
TENDER, but I won't fight in June
The first intimation that Dempsey
might be through with the ring
came from Tex Rickard at Miami
Beach that Dempsey definitely had
retired as championship con-
tender.
That Dempsey'S reported depar-
ture from the list Of possible oppo-
nents for Gene Tunney has cost the
heavyweight situation and those
who benefit therefrom at least
$1,000,000 goes without saying.
Here in New York it is believed
that if Tom Heeney gets past Jack
Delaney in their elimination bout
next month, Rickard will take the
opportunity to fulfill his ambition to
stage a championship bout in Lon
don this year.

Not Finally Settled.
Seattle Times. ]


 Leaders of the Anti-Saloon League, generally, than Dr. Arthur ]. Barton of Atlanta, Ga in their interpretation of the verdict" rendered in the National election. Dr. Barton's sweeping assertion that the opponents of the Eighteenth Amendment and the Vostead Act met their Waterloo last Tuesday is not entirely sustained by analysis of facts and figures.
 To the more ardent prohibtionsts we'll as to their more rabid opponents, there but one issue at stake in the recent campaign This was the issue of dry wet. It was an issue not joined in the platforms of the respective parties but to all those most deeply interested, and to every citizen of lively imagination, it was quite distinctly presented in the outspoken wetness Of the Democratic Presidential candidate by contrast with the high respect for the Con- stitution and the law revealed in every utterance Of the Republican standard bearer
 Differences of opinion this great ques- ton were individual differences. Governor Smith was frankly determined to influence change of public sentiment. MT. Hoover, personally dry by preference and holding to the belief that the Nation should endeavor to make good on "a noble experiment" quite as frankly declared that the present scheme of enforcement has been sub ject to gross abuses that must be corrected Ger tainly that does not indicate that he is satis- fefd with the cumbersome, costly and ofttimes seandalous practices that have been pursued in the name of enforcement in many prohibition districts.
 As for Dr. Bartons. conclusons-if he wishes to think that the election was swung on this one issue he should pause to reckon with the fact that no issue can be considered finally settled when more than 1400O, 900 American citizens vote the other way

THE AWAKENING" IN THE SOUTH

President-Eleet Hoover to take it for granted that the circumstance that four States heretofore regarded of the Solid South. ten States that were of the Solid South before Bryan not to mention Oklahoma, voted Republican in the recent Presidential election is an indication that the South has awakened to the call of pro gress and acquired National outlook. The New York Herald Tribune echoes this view saying: 'The voters who put four States of the Solid South into the Republican column have mani fested high courage and intellectual independ- ence They have done great work for the South and for the future of American politics."
 We do not read the signs that way. The circumstances of the recent campaign would rather show that the South is still voting her hates and preiudices They indicate that in some of the States the South cherishes the hates and prejudices that have been nursed by ignorant and intolerant preachers, the Ku Klux Klan the Ant-Salocn League, the politicians who had made their tie-ups with intolerance etc, more than she adheres to the hates that date back to he Civil War and reconstruction. The Southern States did not vote for MT. Hoover and the Republican platform They voted against Gov. Smith, their false conceptions of Tammany and the Catholic Church and for forcing prohibition on other peo- pie. They voted the hates and prejudices of Sam Jones, Billy Sunday and other ranting revivalists who have harried the souls of the country folk
 
 voted against the progressive thought of their re- zion and for their hills and ignorance
 This is shown particularly by the circumstance that the majorites that swung Virginia North Carolina and Tennessee to Hoover came from the backwoods sections where religious prejudices and ku kluckery is strongest and ignorance densist
 The result in Florida was due in part to authentic Republican immigration into the fast developing districts Of that State added to the backwoods hates and preiudices religious and otherwise In Texas the situation was aggravated by bitter factional ntra-party Democratic quar- reing.
 The facts rather indicate that the independ- ence and courage displayed in the South were by those who fought intolerance and for State rights and supported Gov Smith This element was aided by those who retained the preiIdiees of the reconstruction and the fear of Negro domination who voted with them for the Demo- cratic Party. These contributed enough votes in some of the Southern States to keep them in the Democratic column.
 All things considered the South demonstrated the proof of the contention that there are more people who vote for their prejudices than there are that exercise reasoned judgment
 There is more hope for the South in the support given Gov. Smith by the faculties of the great Southern universities and their student bodies, progressive business men and leading

CANADA AND HERRING.

The last Fishery News, bulletin of the American Department of Commerce, contains tht following item of information
 The fish reduction plants the
 West coast of Vancouver Island. threat
 ened with serious loss if forbidden to
 herring for purposes other than for
 food, have been relieved for this year
 by postponement of the effective date
 of the prohibiting order. according to
 report of October 27 from American
 Trade Commissioner E. G. Babbtt at
 Vancouver Because of the outlays made
 by the companies affected, in antcipa-
 tion of the herring season, permission
 has been granted for the of her
 ring by the reduction plants until De-
 cember 31. The statemnt is made by
 the Premier that there will be no re-
 newal of this privilege next year.
 This action of the Canadian Government is another of trying to accomplish by law ol regulation something that ought to be left tc the natural laws which control trade and in. dustry. Why should the Government regulate the of fish or any other product unless il be to prevent it's employment for criminal or baneful purposes?
 If the intent of the Government is to con- serve the herring supply then why not let it limit the catch and let the demands of the market determine the use? If the market demands make it more profitable to utilize herring for other useful purposes than food why interfere? There is no evidence that people starving for lack of food they cannot afford to pay for. If the demand for herring for food should become suf- fcently great the market would react to the de mand and it would become more profitable to utilize f for that purpose than for any other. The matter would be settled through the operation of natural economic laws

Not Their Language That Made Him Sick

(New York Times)
 The fantastic, pseudo-seientifc methods used by writers of mystery stories to cause illness. lapse of memory and death to their victims are not exceeded in incredibility by actual cases re- ported from time to time to the American Medical Association. It is hard to believe one recently described by Los Angeles physician, but the organization vouches for him.
 He had patient who suffered ntermittently from shorness of breath and almost complete closure of the throat and nose. Since his disease resembled asthma hay fever, the doctor set about the search for some substance which might be poisoning him as the pollen of certain plants affects hay fever sufferers In a small scratch in the skin he would place various materials Most of them were harmless, but it was soon observed that all bird products--chicken meat duck meat chicken feathers and the yolk of egg-rased welts and gave other signs of being offensive
 Then the doctor, like a detective of fiction turned his attention to the three family parrots Placing an extract made from their feathers in scratch, he poisoned his patient severely The birds were sent away and the man recovered lhe tiny amount of dust in the air from their feathers had poisoned the membranes of his breathing passages that he nearly suffocated
