Little Cuban
Gets Verdict
Over Singer
$4,000 See Chocolate Rally
to Win; Adds to Great
Record.
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY

NEW YORK, Aug. 80. - Kid
Chocolates record Of victories was
unbroken today, but only after a
furious twelve-round battle in which
the little Cuban Negro had to come
from behind to win a close decision
from AL Singer, Bronx boy, before
50,O0O-the largest crowd Of the
outdoor seasonal the Polo grounds
Thursday night. The gate receipts
we're about s225, 900.
A whirlwind finish in the final
round apparently gained Chocolate
the votes of Referee Lou Magnolia
and Judge Charles F. Mathison.
The other judge, George Kelly,
voted for Singer.
Quick Rise to Wealth
Rising from a $40 preliminary
fighter a little more than a year
ago, Chocolate collected about
$4,000 for his share and today
stands on the threshold of pugilistic
greatness like no Negro fighter since
George Dixon and Joe Cans.
Chocolate today boosted of the
outstanding record Of any fighter
under 100 pounds. In 155 fights he
has never lost a decision. Fifty
five of his matches have been in the
professional ring, winning thirty
three of them by knockouts, and
twenty-one by decisions. The only
black spot on his record is a draw
against Joe Scalfaro.
Four Pound Difference
Chocolate conceded Singer al
most four pounds, weighing 125 10
the Bronx boys 1891.
1t was a close, furiously-waged
battle, in which Chocolate had to
summon all his reserve to wipe out
Singers early lead and finish in
front. Singer, who entered the ring
a seven to five favorite, carried the
attack in the early rounds and had
a long lead piled up by the end of
the sixth. After that, Singer slowed
down and Chocolate gradually
forged to the front.

TN thousands of towns throughout
i the country, this scene is duplicated
every day. A parking space or public
garage filed with cars used in business,
while the other members of their
owners families are marooned at home.
A second car would make their day
so much easier and pleaSanter. And
almost any family can afford a second
car by picking out used car from the
stocks of General Motors dealers.
Their sales of new cars are so large;
they accept so many cars in trade
often with mileage scarcely touched
that you can find cars of every size
and type in their showrooms.

Doing More Than His Job

1t often happens that a newspaper mans best work is
Wor. that is not done directly in the line OF his ordinary
duty.
There is. for instance. Edward Price Bell. London cor
respondent for tic Chicago Daily News.
Rodney butcher reveals that it was Mr.. Bell who orig
inaliy suggested the visit to America of the British prime
minister. i. was he who first grew alarmed at the in
c,easingly strained relations between America and Eng
lard, and il, vas he who instituted the negotiations that
led to RaEaay MacDonald's visit.
That bit OF work was not, strictly speaking, in the line
OF his regular duty. II he had not done ii he would not
in any way have been scamping his Job. But, being an
alert and conecien,iols man. he saw a chance to do some
t.,ing for his c~ountry-and he did it, even though there
was no obligation resting upon him.

Does the Farmer Benefit?
IValley CITY Tincs- Recordl

(Vauey CITY TIncS-ReCOrdD
While We have been hearing very much of the benc-
farmers when the thing has been sited down 1t looks
to the average citizen as il the farmer was getting it in
the neck.
From most angles you get ON this attempt to help the
farmer the more convinced you are that the farmer gets
stung-Rnd gets stiing right. Let's take the Intermedi-
ate Credit Bank of st. Paul. which is a government in
stitution. and let's see how much help he gets when he
goes after 1t. We will say that the farmer has 1000
bushels of wheat worth approximately $1,000. and he
wants to borrow some money on that wheat. What does
ne get when he gets through with all the red tape and
loan 5000 maximum value for loan purposes no matter
what the price of wheat Is on the market. Then when
all the various expenses are taken out for hauling charges.
70 per cent Is the limit Of the loan for which q note is
given, expense or ~rcdepost, interest In advance taken out
at seven and three quarters per cent, abstract charges
and various other charges never before thought Of.
when the farmer gets through with that loan oil he gets
on that 1900 worth of grain is $467.50. which Is dasned
little help. He gets practically q cents per bushel for his
lege.
Let us take s look ct the flax proposition. Say q farm
er has 1000 bushels Of flax worth 300. The farmer
gets approximately a loan Of t006.l5 when he gets through
with all the red tape and the expense connected with 1t
and he gets q little over 30 cents per bushel and pays APP
p~rcximately 3 per cent for the privilege Of borrowing the
money from the credit bank.
It is no wonder that the farmer complains Of not re-
ceiviig . square deal. He has . real complaint coming.
His cop is just literally eaten up by charges and e-
penses SO lat IN the final analysis he has very little left
for himself, ard instead Of getting any real help he Is
getting = swift punch on the chin for 4 knockout.
So long rs We see this sort Of thir1 going on the more
foreclosures We will rec In tie newspapers and the more
farmers Ne viii see moving from the farms

It Doesn't Look RICH

France. with che war still unpaid, is spending millions
in preparation for the cvcntualisy OF another.
Which is very much like saying that the United States
is footing the bill. F: as Icing as France docs not pay the
war debts o." ~ this country, that country can go on
spending money for forts and submarines and warships.
1t can + ,nper and hobbc the steps of other nations in
efforts to bring The world to an effective peace basis.
The Tribune carried the news Monday tina. the fortiii-
cation policy Of France was directed on the frontier to-
ward Italy. Peace and pence pledges have convinced
Trance that along the Rhine there need be no further
fear But France still is in such a state of nerves from
he World var that spectcrs OF fresh wars continue to
aaun, the land Of Napoleon. Now these arc seen from
the side of her old ally in the World war.
OF course, Frances preparations will look SO menacing
that Italy must be expected to proceed to the execution of
a similar policy. Other portions of Europe are learning
how to get along with each other. ii not in Immediate
smoothness, with steps calculated to realize that coldi-
ton ultimately.
France is so Tiled with the %hobgoblin Of war menaces
that 1t is possible the representatives from Paris will turn
out to be ~puiihsc!:s in the naval disarmament conference
20 OPEN at LoGdcn January 20.
r. Is not very pleasant for Americans to realize that the
reason the billions len; to France in the World war have
tayis,.c and goes on spending her money in wal prepara-
tions-in a sense. is making the United States foo. e-
penditurc from which this country is turning at home.
France has learned the secret OF getting along with an
old enemy which had many reasons to be permanently
litter toward tho land whose vast armies time and again
in three centuries ravaecd it. Why not try the sam.
process with old friends 1t now feels it cannot trust?
Il doesn't Look right TO go ahead as the news from
Paris says France is. The world Is not headed that d-
rcctlon just now. but. in the direction OF cnthroning
peace. Why not try tina. cut a bit at least?

Editorial Comment
Fargo Has Grain Aspirations
Fargo FORUM

North Dakota has a keen interest in the formation OF
the Farmers National Gram corporation, the gigantic CO.
ana Sterilization operations. If these become necessary.
Two citizens Of the state. Mr.. George r. Duis and MI.
r. A. Lee. have been members Of the committee of six
.een which promulgated the plans, and. as such members
will BE- among the incorporating directors. Later there
Will be All election of directorate. and this state will have
its representatives on the board.
But this is not the chief interest. The Farmers Ma
tional Grain corporation will handle millions of bushels OF
wheat each year. The various cooperatives and pools
which belong to It will carry their grain up to it. after
winch 1t will be handled i'll such a way as to keep the
market stable. That means additional terminal facili-
tics IN the great shipping centers. It means storage ia
places become, in a large measure. po.cn. markets.
There Is no reason. for instance, why Fargo should not
become an important center Of tic wheat marketing
world. 1t Is the logical place for holding back North
Dakota and Montana wheat. the point Of storage, in
spection. cleaning, preparation OF by-products. etc.. and
there is no doubt that it eventually will figure thusly in
the Farmers National Grain corporations marketing
program.

GEAR BANS con

On Oct. Is, 1914. the Gear of Russia
prohibited forever the sale Of spiritu-
ous l~iquors-chiefly vodka.
Three months before. all wine. beer
and vodka shops had been closed as q
temporary measure. IN view Of the
order for mobilization Of land and sea
forces of the empire.
But the people made use Of the oc-
casion. and demanded the prohibi-
ton Of the sale Of alcohol for the
whole duration Of the war, and If
possible, forever.
Early in September Of 1914, the
council Of ministers announced that
his imperial majesty had decided to
prohibit the sale Of spirits and vodka
until the end Of the war.
The gar announced on Oct. is that
he had decided to prohibit forever
the sale Of spirituous liquors. These
orders. however. did not apply to malt
liquor and wines.
Local governing bodies were al
lowed to petition for q complete pro-
hibition of the sale Of all alcoholic
beverages within the limits OF their
jurisdiction.
Petrograd restricted the sale Of wine
to 40 first-class hotels and restaur-
ants and only permitted liquor to be
sold with meals. The city Of Moscow
adopted complete prohibition Of all
int0Xicants.
