Gamblers Are Fooled.

Gamblers Are FOOLED.
"THE members of the District
Commission are firmly of the
opinion that behind several
bad decisions here there was no ute
rior motive. Take the draw decision
in the Perroni-Barry bout. Ringsid-
ers thought Perroni won. The bet
ting was on Perroni-heavily so. The
decision crossed up those who like
to lay it on the line.
The Bass -Sarron bout saw the bet
ting men heavily on Bass. Bass lost
on foul.
The commission is calling upon all
of its judges and referees to follow
to the letter the rules of the COM
mission. Frankly. some Of them have
not done so and this has been the
means of allowing too much latitude,
killing the basis of comparison and
eliminating the chance of pinning
down definitely inefficient judging.
IF the officials will abide strictly
by the rules the decisions will turn
up okay. The rules books were not
printed for fun.
TO give an example Of ineffciency:
The rules direct that man be penal
lied for minor foul blows and tactics.
They do not say that he loses that
round on a score of to o. Yet some
of the judges have done so and that,
in adding up, throws them away off
balance. You can't give a man an
90 in any round unless he is knocked
out in that round 20 is nothing and
you can't beat that argument, at least
not in mathematics

They're Honest Officials.

IT DOUBT" said Maj. Miller this
morning, If any boxing COM
mission in the world is COM
posed of men of higher ideals than
the District Commission. Their goal
is to keep boxing clean, to satisfy
contestants and public alike as to
fair decisions, to keep out the lower
fringe that follows boxing in some
other States.
The District Commission has no
secrets. Unlike some State commits
sions it does not forbid the publica-
ton of ring decisions. Nor does it
forbid announcements as to whether
or not decisions are unanimous or
not. The take at the gate, the
purse paid contestants-an of this is
wide open.
"Originators of the District boxing
law were wise when they made it
imperative that police official serve
as one of the commissioners. Wiser
still were the District Commissioners
when they chose the highest avail
able police official and then moved
the ring commissions headquarters
to police headquarters. 1t would be
a tough commission for gamblers and
flxers to fiddle with

Miller Lays Bad Decisions
7 to Judges Ignorance of

M erees and judges are going
v v back to pugilistic school.
Today one and all will re-
ceive from the District Commission
a lesson in scoring. Some may not
need it, but they'll get 1t anyhow.
Even the peeve of the commission
that appointed them was brought
down upon the officials at the last
Riding and Hunt Club show in which
several decisions were disputed and
one of which was a farce, the critics
unanimously condemning the Me-
Cadon-Wilson draw.
This morning a memorandum to
referees and judges pointing out tech
meal errors made in the scoring Of
recent contests was sent to all OFF,

AT the same time, Maj. Harvey L..
Miller, secretary of the commission,
stuck in verbal oar as the ring
situation became a sea of controversy.
The major, recognized as the city's
leading boxing authority, emphasizes
the honesty of the officials, but
charges them with not studying care
fully the commissions book of rules.

bying, patent-swapping, spread
ing of fear and hate, prodding OF
nations into greater war prepara-
tions-there is an specially clear
chapter which may be Of particu-
lar interest to such veterans as
can remember whom we were
fighting in the last great war.
The one pleasant idea that arose
from the smoking battlefields with
their mounds Of dead after Nov.
II, 1918, was that united nations
could enforce some kind of inter-
national control and so keep the
peace.
The best way to keep the peace,
everyone then agreed, was to keep
Germany diSarmed. That's why
the Versailles treaty prohibits
German expectation or importa-
ton of arms"
Today, everyone agrees that
Hitlerized Germany is armed. And
that Hitlerized Germany is the
chief menace of the peace Of
Europe. Machine guns began to
trickle into Germany and soon
there was a general flow of war
materials. Americas contribution
has been chiefly in airplane en-
gines and patents.
1t also appears that the United
States is headed into a naval race
with Japan, which is exactly the
sort of thing the munitions max
ers love but doesn't lead away
from war.

NOCTORS everywhere are discovering that more
IL noses are being broken in connection with the
increase Of motor accidents. Cars are now built for
high speeds and roads are adapted to the speed OF
the cars.
Because Of the very nature Of the human anatomy
and az the manner in which one sits in a motor car,
the nose Is probably more frequently injured in such
accidents than any other part Of the body.
Persons in the front seat are thrown through the
windshield when the speed Of the car is suddenly
stopped They may get anything from slight
bruse on the nose TO having 1t cut OF.
Those in the back seat sometimes smash noses
against the back OF the front seat.

A MOTHER case is described in which two women

a surgeon an hour later He sewed the tissues to-
gether again and got fsir-ooking appearance. but
unfortunately the tissues under the surface cured up
so that breathing stopped.

Thus Roosevelt goes into the

will be pulled by the progressive

From another side also will be

It will take unusual qualities
of judgment and leadership to
keep in hand the agglomeration
Democratic congressman with
which the country has presented
the administration. They repre-
sent many diverse points of view
and some of them will use every
means at their command to raise
issues the President would rather
not have raised.
If a weak leadership takes over
the reins of the house the Presi-
dent may find it necessary to
quarrel with his congressional
majority, even to override some of
its decisions. This is dangerous
business. 1t creates bitter resent
ments and cleavages in popular
opinion.
The Rainey-Byrns leadership
last year used such severe gag
rules in trying to control the
house that they received universal
condemnation, yet failed to pre-
vent a vote on the cash bonus
and the radical Dies silver bill,
and several times had to adjourn
the house to prevent other catas-
trophies to their program. Only
by desperate maneuvering was a
vote on the Mcleod bank pay-off
bill prevented and the situation
became so ticklish that the ad-
ministration chose early adjourn
ment to completion of the pro-
gram it originally had mapped
out for the session.

ELOOR LEADER BYRNS of

speakership, in spite of the fact

tiers. In the last two years he
has had many opportunities to
do favors for his Democratic COL
leagues and as chairman of the
Democratic congressional cam
paign committee he has had an
opportunity to WOO the incoming
members of his party. He will
jump into the spotlight this
month when President Roosevelt
visits Andrew Jackson's hermit
age, in Byrns' home district, and
his friends will try to interpret
this visit as sign of presidential
favor.
But in spite of this situation,
there is a growing belief here
that Sam Rayburn of Texas,
rather than ByrnS, will be the
next Speaker.
Rayburn is on closer person.

quent informal visits to the White
House. 1t was to him that the
administration entrusted most of
its important legislation, and the
finesse with which he handled it
proved one of the high points of
the last session.
XXTHEN it came time for him
w to take the stock market
bill to the floor of the house he
refused to have the help of gag
rule, and he did such an effective
job Of exposing lobbying tactics
against the measure that it
passed overwhelmingly and with
out important amendments. He
piloted the railroad labor disputes
act, the railroad retirement act
and the communications act
through, and at the first session
of the seventy-third congress had
charge of the transportation and
securities acts.
President Roosevelt, of course,
will avoid any appearance Of at
tempting to influence the selec-
ton of a speaker, yet it would not
be surprising if he found some
way, in the next month, to en-
phasize his friendship with Ray
burn.
The Byrns supporters, aware Of
the strength of Rayburn's posi-
ton, are suggesting a coalition
which would make him floor
leader.
This Is a proposal which will
receive little attention, however.
The Democratic party's new
strength in the north and west
will make an all-southern leader
ship virtually impossible. Not
only are Byrns and Rayburn from
Tennessee and Texas, respective
ly, but the chairman of the rules
committee, William B. Bankhead,
is from Alabama.
Wise heads here are predicting
that Rayburn and Byrns will lock
horns on the basis Of speakership
or nothing. Whichever wins
probably will win with the help
of a northern or western coai-
ton which will demand the right
to name a floor leader; and the
two best guesses for this post are
John w. Mccormack Of Massa-
chusetts and James M. Mead OF
New York.

It has been shown, for instance,
that the United States hardly

the assurance that its soldiers or
sailors would be slaughtered by
weapons produced by American
