ment on 1928 incomes.
It was Mr.. MELONS belief that the
surplus on June 80 would fall below
$50, ,0O0. 900, but he was unprepared,
he said, to give any figure of defi-
mite nature Conditions subject to
quick change hay alter the present
indications greatly. MIR. Mellon eX-
planned. and he desired, therefore, to
eavoid making more than general
statement.
The Secretary said that early ad-
vices from the collectors of internal
revenue. based on the first of the an
nual flood of tax returns, showed
that the receipts to the time of such
reports We're about $4.OOO,0O0 ahead
of the Treasury's estimate.
The department has consistently

total would not fall far below the
figure for March Is, 1928, when

While Treasury records have
shown continual increase over

receipts from tariff duties levied at

Tex Richard

No successor to George L. Tex Rickard in the
field of boxing promotion stands out
No man who might even approach to Richard in
financial genius in flair for color and uncanny re-
Spouse to popular demand in boxing suggests himself
Rickard was in a class by himself as the greatest
fistc promoter of all time. Where others thought
in hundreds, he conceived plans in terms Of thou
sands-yes, millions.
Rickard was essentially gambler. Having
ganlbIed with life itself in the Klondike, in the
turbulent Grande Chaco territory in South America,
in the gold fields of Nevada, hazard with mere
money as the stake was everyday business with Tex
once convinced that match deserved his efforts,
he arrived at the financial possibilities of the contest
And once in possession of these figures, Rlckard
downed all money barriers which stood in his way.
confident that when the boxers entered the ring his
salient optimism would be than justified by q
TANNED arena mounting record for attendance and
receipts-and fight in keeping.
No saint was this man Rickard as he went to his
maker-no saint, but fine man among men, gener-
Gus to fault honest in everything he did, loyal and
unflinching in support of friend His word was
his bond.
With all his experience in camp, on pampas and
in business, Rickard had almost childlike faith
in his fellows And he presented something of a
human paradox. With all his success he was always
a visionary. Ever before him he bigger and bet
ter amphitheaters, more urjd attractions bigger
crowds. And he always was ready to back another
visionary.
One of mis- hobbies was the support of impecunious
inventors with devices propositions which he re-
garded as future successes.
In high Valhalla Tex sits today gossipng with Joe
Cans chuckling with John L. Sullivan and Bob Fitz-
simmons, barking back to the days when heavyweight
champions fought for comparative pittance-Tex
sits there with challenge to time to give to boxing

Plugging the Funnel

Detroit is the funnel through which vast amount
of Canadian liquor pours into the United States
The coast guard, which was able to smash
Rum Row along the Atlantic; has been unable to
plug the funnel.
Customs records of Canada show $25,OOOOOO worth
of liquor cleared for this country last year. The
amount that actually entered was much larger
American officials unable TO check the traffic, have
turned to Canada for help. An American delegation,
led by Prohibition Commissioner Doran and Admiral
Billiard of the coast guard, is now in Toronto con-
ferring with Canadian officials about proposed re-
vision OF the anti-smuggling treaty.
The Americans ask that the Canadians refuse
clearance papers to vessels setting out for the United
States with liquor cargoes and that violations of the
customs laws be made an extraditable ofense for
citizens of any nationality.
The Canadians are luke warm to the suggestions.
Liquor is a legal commodity in Canada, they point
out and many are said feel that the United States
should establish an effective border patrol before
ing to them for help.
They fear that public opinion would not support
the extradton proposal Recent revelations of wide
spread corruption among prohibition agents in the
