Naval Building Program.
The most important feature of the
various naval problems that confront
the new Secretary of the Navy is the
carrying out of the naval construction
program, which is the largest and most
significant since 1916. In this connec-
ton he must also expand the naval
aeronauticS and carry on activities
looking to the perfection of safety de-

DETROIT, Feb. 13.-Tex Rick
ards promotional genius lives in
"Dick" Dunn, youthful alumnus OF
Madison Square Garden, who has
developed Detroit into one of the
outstanding boxing centers of the
United States.
Dick" Richard G., 80, is the
general manager of Detroit's new
100000 Olympia Sports Arena.
The friends of Dick" Dunn said
he could not fail to achieve sue
cess. He has been in the sports
business since knee pant days. He
is the son of John p Dunn, old
promoter of the Coney Island
Sporting Club, a success 80 years
ago.
Dick" worked for Richard in
the old and new Garden. He has
achieved success in Detroit by
turning the Olympia arena from a
flop into a thriving business en-
terprise.
When Dunn became manager of
the arena about a year ago it was
a losing venture. Within II months
Dunn took in 100000 on Arena
boxing contests. He also devel-
oped hockey and other sports as
major attractions.
The young promoter started de-
livering press notices for his ia
Their. He was ~ years old. Next
he was with p 7. Powers and
Harry Pollock, promoters of six
day bicycle races. Before Rick
ard came to the Garden, Dunn was
a telephone operator in the super
intendent's office. Usher, he was,
and also ticket taker, ticket seller,
concession manager, time keeper.
assistant superintendent and SUI
perintendent.
'Dick" went to the World war
with the 365th machine gun bat
talon of New York's own nth
division. Back in New York, he
went to work for Richard as his
assistant. When Detroit wanted
a manager. Promoter Rickard rec
commended Dick and here he came.
Like the late "Tex," Dunn be-
lieves in giving the public what It
wants, and he subscribes to the
policy that the public always Is
right.
Dick has made money on every
boxing show here. The Heeney-
Risko bout. his first, drew $77 900.
Jimmy McLarnin and Loayza drew
$4,000, and gates of $4,000 to

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-When
Republicans and Democrats lock
horns on the floor of Congress one
Jean always look for a battle royal.
But when Tie two clash on a
question like prohibition-well, al
most anything can happen.
For instance, one of the keenest
political fights in recent years
was precipitated on the floor of
the house when the proposal to
increase prohibition enforcement
funds by $24,0O0,0OO came up. 1t
was the amendment proposed by
Senator Harris, Democrat of Geor-
gia, and passed by that body.
1t was a splendid situation for
the Democrats and they were out
to make the most Of it.
Wood, Republican of Indiana,
asked that the amendment be sent
to conference. Garner, Democrat
of Texas, was on his feet with
the statement that such procedure
was agreeable to him if the gen
tleman from Indiana would agree
to bring it back to the house for
consideration.

Garner Persists

Wood thought that could be ar
ranged provided the Senate con-
ferees did not recede from their
previous position. But Garner was
not satisfied. He insisted that
some assurance be given that the
would be brought back
to the house.
The fight was on. Republicans
rushed into the fray and the Dem
ocratic reserves moved up.
Byrns, Democrat of Tennessee,
impatlently reminded his colleag-
ues that this was question of vi
tai interest, that members OF the
house had q right to debate the
matter, and that this could be
brought about if the house confe-
rees would merely tell their Sen
ate friends they had promised to
bring the amendment back Wood
suggested that perhaps Byrns and
Garner did not have the proper
faith in their Senate friends.
The gentleman from Texas could
not speak for the gentleman from
Tennessee, but personally he did
not like the idea of depending on
his Senate friends-that he would
much prefer an agreement with
the gentleman from Indiana
