aroused. When the emergency passes they dis
band, and each tends to his own business.
That has always been the spirit of America. 1t
is the way our democracy works
But at least it is plain that middle class groups
have been formed all over the country as there
arose the emergency of packing the Supreme
Court and of the Government reorganization
bill" These organizations, hope, will be kept
intact.

About Third Term
1T is no secret that the smart boys" as Jim
Farley calls them, want Roosevelt to try q
third term 1t is no secret that the more con-
servative members Of the Democratic party are
seeking to restore control of the party to them
selves.
Nor is it any secret that the smart boys" have
been trying to make the charge Of "selling-out"
stick to Kennedy because he has declined to
recommend that the United States go rushing off
to save the world for democracy" and is there
fore secretly antiRoosevelt.
Danger in Friends
PUT it is not from these sources that the most
~ serious danger threatens the effectiveness of
Kennedy as a useful public servant 1t is from
some of his friends who persist in making him a
prospective presidential candidate for 1910.
While there can be little doubt that Kennedy
is fattered and deeply appreciates the motives of
his friends, there is strong to believe he is
more anxious to make a success out of his am
basSadorship than anything else
But if some Of his friends persist in putting
him as presidential candidate, it may be their
very support which may ironically prevent his
completing successfully his present job.
There is, of course nothing he can do about
the situation. The more denials he may make,
the one thinks inevitably of the observation:
"Methnks the lady doth protest her virtue too
much" The best he can do is to remain silent
and hope to heaven those friends inclined to
"slobber over" him will lay off the "Kennedy-for-
President" stuff.

 Charter Changes

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Seeking to ease the way for new financing, the United States Steel Corpora ton recently proposed changes in it's capital structure and charter in- creasing the authorized common stock from 12,50O,000 to fifteen mill lion shares, changing this stock from $100 par to no-par, and authorizing the issuance of convertible bonds and debentures.
 It was emphasized by company spokesman, however, that no inn mediate financing was contemplat- ed. and that improvement in mar ket conditions would largely deter mine when any new issues of stock, bonds or debentures would be of fered.

NEW YORK. Feb. 25.-Boxing' g "Hall of Fame" echoes with argu- ments, most of which it is quite inn possible to settle. The many factors involved, for which few yardstlckS of measurement or comparison are available. make any fistic honor roll a matter of conjecture. We have consulted the oracles, shadow-bo with the records.
 Our tcp ten is confined to the Marquis Of Queensbury era. Ohvl- ously. to go back to the old bare knuckle days, to compare Tom Say CTS, Richard Heenan, John Morri- sey. the great Bendigo and Jem Mace with the Stalwarts Of the gloved fist period, would merely in vite further trouble. Our research. therefore, has concentrated upon fiStic history of the last haf-cen- tury, with a bow of recognition only to two heroes who spanned the tran sitional period, John L. Sullivan and Jack McAuliffe.
 Sullivan belongs close to the top, rot because he was the last Of the great bare-knuckle belligerents but because the Boston Strong Boy be- came an American legend. He linked the fugitive days of pugilism with the reform period. He became him. self an advocate of piety and died a symbol of solid citizenship, far removed from but still best remem- bered for the days when he offered, from the stage, ito lick any man in the ho):5c"
 McAuliffe, who only recently joined Sullivan in Fistianas Val halla, was the first of a great line of American lightweights. Their ranks alone challenge the heavy weight monopoly in Hall of Fame" debate. McAuliffe retired undefeat- ed in 1863 after nine years as un- disputed lightweight champion. He met and conquered all challengers.
 Fitzsimmons' Case
 Only after weighing the evidence carefully do we conclude that Gen. tleman Jim Corbett rates the No. l spot in our honor roll in prefer ence to Ruby Robert Fitzsimmons. Strictly on the competitive side, we favor Fitz. He was middleweight champion Cat 1858 pounds) six years before he knocked out Corbett in 1897 He won the light-heavyweight title six years afterward He was nctive in the ring for nearly 30 years, was AT years old when he fin- ally quit, and in every respect was a physical marvel as well as one of the greatest punchers of all time.
 Corbett's original claim to fame rests, of course, upon his knockout of Sullivan in 1892-an exploit for which many an old Sullivan idola- ter never forgave him-but the one

Corbett Selected by Gould
 As Boxing's Number ! Man

time San Francisco bank clerk yielded great influence along two lines of fistic development
 By showing what clean living could do, Corbett helped raise stand ards of competition as well ss con- duct in pugihstic circles. His career not only helped lift the game frcm disreputable atmosphere but his 5cxing skill stimulated it's scicn- tific side.
 Two Other Successes
 Two other studies in fistic sue cess, Jack Dempsey and Gene Tun- ney. are included in our list. No matter how you think they would have fared in combat with the inn mortal Big Three or, for that matter, with Jim Jeffries or Jack Johnson, they must be conceded to be the last of the great heavyweights. Jack and Gene drew the two biggest gates in prize fight history. Demp- sey's purses aggregated nearly S3,- 100000 from 1919 to 1927. Tunney collected the biggest individual end, sgsO, GOO. for the famous battle Of the long count" and retired a mil lionaire in 1928.
 Both fought their way to the top by the hard route, Dempsey as fiery youth with dynamite in either fist, Tunney as ring student who took Corbett for his model.
 The man who had most to do with helping Tunney and Demp- sey to make ring history as well as fantastic profits-Tex Richard-cer- tainly belongs to our fistic Hall of Fame" The old klondike gambler began his career as a promoter in 1906, at Goldfield Nev. He bid SOL 900 for the Jeffries-J Johnson heavy weight match, which he promoted at Reno in 1910 Coming East he took over the old Madison Square Garden, put boxing on its feet as a sporting business, and brought the best people, back to the ringside
 Never a Champion
 Two great lightweights, Joe Cans and Benny Leonard, rate high on cur honor list. Champion from 1901 to 1907, when he yielded to Battling Nelson and to the ravages of ill., ness, Cans was a model of fistic skill. Leonard, who retired unde- feated in 1924, came closest among all succeeding lightweights to the Cans standard Benny out-boXed and out-fought formidable class of rivals.
 The fighter who rounds out our top ten, Sam Langford, never held title but few will dispute the Bos- ton Tar Baby's" claim to greatness. He is considered by many compe- tent judges the hardest hitter of all heavyweights, with the possible ex- ception of Fitzsimmons His career covered 21 years but he was in his prime in the days when Jack John son was a fugitive champion, and thereby a victim of the handicaps associated with the fistic fortunes or misfortunes of his race.
 It is commentary upon the heavyweight champions of the de- cade since Tunney's retirement that not one comes close to a place on the honor roll, save perhaps for Jim Braddock, on the basis of courage alone Max Schmeling dissipated the extravagant Hall of Fame build up for Joe Louis.
