publican National Convention, Mr..
Willkie did a good bit of travelling
and speech-making. 1t was child'S
play, however, to what he is doing
now In that pre-convention CAM
paign, Mr.. Willkie had the aid Of
specially organized Willkie clubs.
He caught the imagination of large
number of the people. He was some
thing new. And when he was named
the standard bearer of one of the
great political parties, he was hailed
as miracle man. He was placed on
pinnacle.
Over as long a stretch as four
months candidates have their ups
and downs. Presidential campaign
ing was something new to Mr.. Will
kie It is no longer. He made some
errors He spoke too quickly. He
was too much inclined to discount
the party leaders and to rely on the
Judgment of men with less expert
ence in politics than himself. If re-
ports that come from persons who
have seen and heard him as he
passed across some of these Western
States are to be credited, he has now
hit his stride. He still has humor-
our twinkle in his eye. But he is
taking the campaign in dead seri-
BUSINESS, and his pleas to the people
are couched in terms that show it.
Variety of Criticism.
The Republican nominee has been
criticized because he was too severe
in attacks on the President. He has
been criticized because he approved,
in effect, the laws which have been
passed during the New Deal admin
istration to aid labor, including his
declarations that labor will have as
much and more to hope for from
him than from Mr.. Roosevelt. He
has been criticized because he has
promised the farmer that that bene-
fit payments and Government loans
shall continue. And he has been
criticized because he has favored
all aid to the British in their war
against the totalitarian governments
this country, because he approved
the trade of half a hundred average
American destroyers to the British,
and because of his support of the
Universal Military Consumption Act.
Attempts are made by the New
Dealers to show Mr. Willkie has
raised no issues in the campaign,
that he has gone along with the
New Deal administration in all its
policies, foreign and domestic,
and that he merely claims he
can administer them better than
Mr.. Roosevelt. His opponents are
spreading the doctrine that. since
this is so, it is far better to stick to
the more experienced President now
in office.
Philosophy Differs.
Mr.. Willkie, however, is preaching
a very different governmental phil
osophy from that of the New Deal
ers-a philosophy he is trying in
every way to get over to the people.
He is seeking to break down class
distinctions - which he says have
been fostered In the last seven years
by the Government itself. He is
trying to show labor that the only
way for the workers to have jobs
is to encourage industry, not hinder
it, and to make the investment Of
capital worth while. He is trying
to show the farmer that the only
way for him to get better break
in the general economy of the coun-

at the Boston Garden
Armstrong gave the 16,469 bowling
fans a peek at a fighting, sensational
champion, who the nations sport
seribes had so appropriately tagged,
Little Perpetual Motion, "bobbing-
and-weaving, and bouncing forward
in his consistent fashion with two
kegs Of TINT, that dropped Junior,
his courageous challenger, four times
before Referee Johnny Martin wisely
halted the slaughter. Before the set
to was well under way the fans con-
coded that, as an "inside" fighter,
little Hank" is excelled by none.
Armstrong, who appeared uncon-
eerned about the melee as he entered
the ring vigorously shadow boxing,
had little regard and certainly mani
Tested no fear Of his ring-wise foe and
commenced hostilities with a wild,
savage attack, hammering Junior to
the canvas twice with rapid-fre hooks
to the Jaw and head. The Maine vete-
ran tried desperately, amid the raging
storm Of leather, to Offset his oppo-
nent's attack with long left and right
upper-cuts to the chin, but missed.
The bell came 70 Juniors rescue after
he was foored the second time.
With their heads together most of
the time, both gladiators fought skill
fully out Of crouch, with Hammer

pounding away with machine-like
rapidity. Junior scored with right and
left uppercuts, that sent Henry's head
swapping back, but never for a mo-
ment did that stop the leather assassin
from plunging forward failing both
hands at close-quarters. After Junior
took the third canto by a hair-margin,

surely that didn't, or at least should
not have overshadowed his greatness
one iota. But all that Is another
story-it is merely mentioned so that
it won't be forgotten as We think Of
this other fellows story.
The owned OF the words above
seems TO think that Henry is not skill
ful enough. Enough for what? Per
haps he has reference TO the champs
style; if so, he should remember that
there is no patented style a champion
must use. Armstrong, himself, speak
ing of the style he employs, said that
he intends always TO do the hitting.
And that's what decides a boxing bout.
The fellow who can land the most
effective blows and yet not find him
self at the bottom OF the .ring-is usu-
ally the winner. II might not be the
prettiest style used or known in the
ring but It is effective and gets results
the one thing all the fighters are
after. That Armstrong is very ag-
gressive and never takes a backward
step is known 10 all fight followers,
for that's how he got the nickname of
Perpetual Notion. But nobody
should think for one moment that he
isn't skillful for after all-Ambers is
known for his boxing ability and yet
even he couldn't do much with Henry.

and taking let's and rights-perhaps
this very man who was by chance
overheard will be loudest in acclaim
for the greatest fighter who ever

strong was clean and a glowing exam
pie Of manhood. Neither will it be
easy for him TO forget that once there
was q fighter who held the distinction
Of being the first in history TO win
three titles and hold them at one time.
Hes-even long time after he has
forgotten all about Armstrong; style
these things will always come back 10
him and then perhaps he'll realize that
he was mistaken-and that Armstrong
was really a Champ. Sometimes we
are too close TO things TO judge them
fairly and at other times we are a
