thousands who knew of him.
Unknown to many other thousands.
Owen Meyers was Giving dead man..
for Is years.
In 1918 he marched away with the
364th Infantry of the 91st Division, a
stalwart, husky young Yankee, the same
as thousands of his buddies. He came
home couple of years later, hopeless
invalid, unable to leave his bed. as a re-
suit of shrapnel wounds received in the
battle of the Argonne. To add to his
unfortunate plight he developed blind
ness.
Not even these terrible handicaps pre-
vented him from becoming a radio eX-
pert and writing articles for radio mag
azines with the help of an instrument
presented to him by the late Thomas A.
Edison, into which he could talk and
record his writings.
Owen Meyers is only one individual
of many who have been carrying on" a
pitiful struggle for life during the years
since the war, despite bodies wracked by
suffering and spent by disease. They
are forgotten by the great mass of their
fellow citizens, only small handful
taking occasion to visit them or to re-
member them in any way.
No American ever intended that men
such as Owen Meyers should know want
or experience a lack of care while there
is government of the United States of
America His case is an unanswerable
argument that any injustices to the SER
vice disabled veteran caused by passage
of the economy BILL must be corrected.
1t would be far better for this country
to be imposed upon by 10 undeserving
veterans than to cause hardship to a
single deserving veteran. 1t is the gov
ernment's duty to weed out the unde-
serving ones-a fact which all accept
without argument-but it must not be
done at the expense of other "Owen

A LOST AMENDMENT

RATIFICATION of the proposed child
A labor amendment to the constitution
by Oklahoma yesterday, brings atten-
ton to this important bit of legislation
which has been kicking around in the no.
where for almost 10 years.
Oklahoma was the 18th state to give
approval to the amendment. 1t has been
rejected by &c, and unless some of these
latter states should change their minds
1t has no chance of being adopted
The amendment was proposed to the
state legislatures by the 6Sth congress in
joint resolution adopted by the house
on April 26, 1924 and by the senate on
June of the same year.
It provides that congress shall have pow
er 20 regulate, limit and prohibit the labor
of persons under 18 years of age, but is
extended to explain that the power of
the states is unimpaired by the amend
ment except that operation of state laws
shall be suspended to the extent neces-
sary to give effect to legislation enacted
by congress.
Highly meritorious in its true purpose
to prevent working minor children, as
is being done even today in numerous
states-the amendment has not proved
popular, chiefly perhaps, because of the
high age limit for which it provides.
Many persons under Is years of age are
capable of working with only benefit to
themselves and the nation.
1t is highly questionable if it is desir-
able to have congress regulate the activ-
tiles of youths of 16 II and Is years Of
age. Had the amendment been drawn to
strike at its real objective, it undoubt-
edly would have moved along faster than
it has.
introduced long before the amend
ment abolishing the "lame duck" ses-
sion of congress, the child labor amend
ment has made no headway. 1t is not
likely that it will.

JUDGES CIVESAM
 FULLER ADRAW IN PETROLLE GO
Referee Picked Fargo Ex- press as Winner--Billy Took It Easy"--When K. 0. Seemed Probable

Boston, Sept e-(U.P.) - The prospect of c bout with the win iier of the Tony Canzoneri- Barney Ross conflict was in sight for Sam my Fuller, Boston lightweight, to- day, the result of his surprising ana somewhat dubious draw with Billy Petrolie of Duluth, the Fargo Express, at Boston Garden last night.
 The decision was not to the lik- ing even of the 5000 Boston fans, with whom Fuller is popular. They thought Petrolle's cleverness and forcing had won him the decision. Referee Johnny Brassil thought so, too, and so voted, but one of the judges voted for Fuller and the other thought 1t a draw.
 o. K. Now
 Fuller had been promised the chance at the lightweight title, even if he lost, because Petrolle has had difficulty making weight.
 Except for the first three rounds when the former Boston bootblack kept him at long range with skill. ful left jabbing, the Duluth fighter had clear advantage in most of the rounds. He bored in constantly, whipping his deadly rights and lofts at Fuller's midriff, out-man. euvering him, and on one occasionI In the tenth round, sending him to the canvas with a right to the jaw. Fuller rose immediately, however, before Bassil could begin a count.
 In the sixth round, Fuller hav- Ing assumed defensive bicycle on which he pedaled for most of the remainder of the bout, was ham. mered from all angles. Petrolle's left in particular. pounding his belly to a brilliant crimson.
 Easy Going
 Petrolle's tactics, however, were not consistently strategic. He eased up his attack on several occasions when he had gained e good advan. tage and appeared content to win rounds by slight margins. His re- putedly terrific left was not so much in evidence as his right, the hand with which he scored his most effective points. Ills best round, the sixth, might have end cd in his knocking out Fuller dur ing a furious toe-to-toe exchange, when the Boston lad appeared dazed, but Petrolle relented when a clean.cut victory seemed within his grasp and Sammy weathercd the round. coming back fresh in the seventh.

The odd thing about this com bination Is that you never see Q fish of these colors--good founda- ton for tho argument that Q game fish strikes plug thinking It an enemy rather than q tid.bit for the tummy.
 Of course, the color of the lure depends a great deal on the kind of small fish abounding in Q lake or river where you are fishing. If silver sinners on which the bass feed abound, a silver sinner finish on your plug bring results, and so on.
 >The kind of day also figures. Games fish seem to prefer dark lures on bright days, and the op- posite Is true on dark days.
 For night fishing there is little to choose from in color of lures. A black lure will bring just as good results as Q white one. All the fish sees is the wriggiing action in the water.
