EC|S|()NS
OF FTE'NARE
WRONG
By JACK DEMPSEY


Stories that come out Of New
York picture considerable con-
fusion-and distress-over what
Is termed "the refereeing situa-
tion." All hands seem to be
tossed into the air in a gesture
of despair and Jim Farley chair
man of the boxing commission, is
quoted as asking: What is one
to do about it?"
Well, if ain office boy isn't do.
ing so well on the Job. or q bank
clerk lis constantly making errors
in addition and subtraction, or
an. executive Of an organization
is floundering around. the bosses
usually, fire him and hire some.
one else.
Thus, if some Of the referees
and the judges in New. York are
tossing out decisions which juSti-
fiably can be termed "atrocious,"
terrible" or something on that
order. why cannot the commis-
sion chop. the dub officials off it's
list and substitute men who
really know boxing and who per-
haps can do much better as fight
referees and judges?
Certainly it should not be
in New York State a case Of
"once. q referee or Judge, al
ways a referee or judge"
So long as a man renders con
giStently good opinions he should
be retained. But when he be-
gins to slip. or when his judg-
li1ent seems all wrong. he is no
longer qualified for his job.
The commission does not keep
on its staff any clerks or deputies
who are incompetent. Why then
should it retain referees and
judges who, in its opinion, may
have outlived usefulness?
Those who are fully conversant
with both pro and amateur ring
affairs in New York insist that
there are many officials operating
at amateur bouts-young, aggres.
sive and alert-who are superior
to some Of the professional Off
cials. If that is SO. the commits
sion might give those fellows
chance. ~.
A referee is no different
than a baseball umpire,
football official, and also no
different than a boxer, q
ball player or any other type
Of athlete. -.
He comes eventually to the
end Of. his greatness. But boxing
commissions do not seem to be
aware Of the fact and they keep
the officials on their lists long
after the boys have passed beyond
their peaks.
The solution of the problem
that has arisen in New York
over the refereeing and judging
seems rather simple; it merely
calls for the removal of deadwood
and the substitution of live
wires.

THIS IS GOOD news
Canadian Parliament May Prohibit
Liquor Clearances to the
United States

according to a special dispatch to the
New York Times, of February Is, a bill
will be introduced in the Canadian Par
lament which opened the week of Febru-
arg II, to prohibit the clearance of liquor
from Canadian ports to the United States
This measure, if passed. should greatly
facilitate the work of the American Coast
Guard, patrolling waters adjacent to Can
ada. This move, it is alleged, will cost the
Canadian Government millions of dollars
a year, between revenues lost and new
border services made necessary for en-
forcement of the law.
Although the issue has been bitterly as
sailed by certain elements of the Cana
dian Government it has been apparent
for some time, that the Prime Minister
was included to favor the move.
The government will lose an annual
revenue of about $13,0O00OO excise tax
which has been levied on liquor exported
to the United States. This fact together

BLACK DUCK" RUNNER
CONFISCATED

In the future the running speed
boat, The Black Duck" will be part of
the fleet of the &C Guard. Judge Let's
of the Federal Court in Providence, Rhode
Island, ordered the vessel turned over to
the Guard, March g. The crew Of the
"Black Duck" will be remembered as the
one over which the wet newspapers wasted
so many tears, when three of their num-
Der were killed and fourth wounded in
a battle with the Guardsmen in Nara
gansett Bay on December 20. The Black
Duck is a speedier craft than the usual
Coast Guard Patrol Boat, and will be
armed at once and used TO pursue snug
glers.

BUFFERS GUILT BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT
Carried High Court Testing Validity of Procedure Prosecute
Liquor Where Transportation is Involved

May the purchaser Of bootleg liquor be
prosecuted for conspiracy to violate the
Volstead act, when he orders liquor know
ing that Illegal transportation will be
necessary? This point of prohibition en-
forcement, which has been one of the
most troublesome in the history of the
prohibition law is soon to be decided, once
for all, by the United States Supreme
Court. The hearing is set for April a.
The test case comes from Pennsylvania.

government for conspiracy to violate the
national prohibition act. The Federal
court in Pennsylvania held that since the
purchase of the liquor was not an cffense
under the law, sale of the same did not
constitute a conspiracy, even though it
contemplated the delivery of the booze.
The Circuit Court of Appeals also held
that transportation necessary 10 effect de-

LEAGUE FIGHTS
TO KEEP ALIVE
ROOT PROTOCOL
Desperate Efforts Are Made
to Save Court Proposal
Affecting u. S.
BY SAMUEL DASHIELL
United Press STAFF Correspondent

GENEVA, Switzerland, Sept 10
Desperate efforts we're made by
League Of Nations delegates today
to save the proposed new protocol
Of the world court. which Cuba S
objections have blocked.
one of the features Of the proto-
col. devised by Elihu Root, is that
1t permits United States adhesion
to the court, and its failure might
prevent American membership on
the tribunal.
The judicial commission Of the
league, which is handling the mat
ter, adjourned until Saturday, hop
ing to gain time.
The protocol would become ef-
fective if no objection we're raised
by any member of the league. Cuba
however, objects to several features
such as the provisions for continual
sessions Of the court and permanent
residence in Geneva Of judges whose
homes are far away.
During today's session of the
commission, Noel Baker Of Great
Britain observed that the life of the
protocol was at stake and perhaps
also adhesion Of the United States
to the court.
