CITES CONSEQUENCES

A thousand easily understand
able consequences will follow the
fourth election of Roosevelt If he
wins 1t. One complete consequence
Is Overwhelmingly manifest.
After him the ambition of every
successor will be to gain at least
as many terms and try for more.
That means that the North
American presidents and stay in
till they die Of old age or are
thrown out by a palace revolu-
ton.
This has been the last Demo
cratic convention. Or rather it is
the first monocratic convention.
The Old Guard has both died and
surrendered.

RECRUITS AN ARMY

He recruits an enormous army
of job-holders and spends the
country into the depths of debt,
and gives no assurance that al
the end Of his sixteenth year he
won't have cooked up another
emergency which he alone has the
experience or the Humanitarian
genius to handle.
A young man of Fl who cast
his first ballot for Roosevelt is
now 33. and will be 81 or 38 at
the end of his fourth term. He
will have passed his whole prime
under one ruler who has reigned
longer than most Of the kings.
Unlike most kings, and even the
sultans, Roosevelt has never
trained a successor. He and his
followers seem 10 have assured
that he will never need one. A
politician OF "a is ordinarily fairly
hopeful of being presidential tim
ber-or he used to be. But under
the Roosevelt regime, he will be
at least so before the fourth term
Is over.

DEATH OF A DREAM

II means the death Of a dream
that every American boy cherished
as his most precious birthright
the tradition that he has as good
a chance to be president as any
body in America.
i myself. as a boy OF five in a
small Missouri village, was so
sure of one day being president
that I pledged the vice presidency
to my chum. In those days there
was new president every four
or eight years. and IL was almost
a necessity that he should come
from humble beginnings.
But now a millionaire has laid
hands on the chalice, and, as II
II were a sporting trophy which
belongs to any one who wins II
three times in a row. he claims il
for his private property

The shrieking and booing Wal

humiliation of the regular Texas

London, Jan. l4-UP)-|ormer
heavyweight contender, Georges
Carpenter, defeated by Jack Demp-
sey in his bid for the world title,
celebrated his 5oth birthday We'd
nesday but the Vichy radio still was
in a state Of confusion today over
whether his much heralded ami
versary bout was held or not.
One broadcast recorded by the
United Press said that large
crowd at the Velodrome in Paris
was disappointed when Carpenter
suffered a sudden indispoSition and
could not fight. The broadcast added
that he appeared in civilian clothes.
Another Vichy radio report re-
corded by Exchange Telegraph said
he had boxed his son and that his
former manager announced he was
giving $4,000 francs to former French
boxers now prisoners Of war.
The German DNB agency said In
a third version that an old injury
prevented him from appearing for
the exhibition but that the fans wit
messed instead a "congratulation GER
emony' In which Max Schmeling OF
Germany was enthusiastically
chceered" as he conveyed the birth
day greetings Of German boxers to
Carpenter.

row night in the Grover Cleveland
A. c. meet at the Seventh Regi-
ment Armory, because:
/. Burly Blond Hulse of the New
York A, C. may establish a new in
door world record for the mile, be-
fore the season closes, and
2. Simms may develop into the
first truly great Negro mile runner
AS these two men begin pounding
around the armory track, the most
interested spectator will be Coach
Emil Won Filing of New York Uni
versity, who groomed both prin-
cipals.
Won Filing put wings on the feet
Of Hulse, now a research chemist
in Passaic, N. j. - Just as he gave
speed to Leslie Mac Mitchell, and
last years Frank Dixon. And he is
sharpening Rudy Simms, Har-
lem Negro youngster who Is a
freshman at New York u, and
who ran the mile as a senior at De-
Witt Clinton High school last sum-
mer in ATS.
Dead-pan Won Filing particularly
Is interested in Simms because this
well-proportioned Negro, who packs
about 100 pounds on a five foot ten
chassis, may be able to run for N.
Y. U. for four years because he is
an engineering student. There Is O
possibility that Uncle Sam may not
claim him before he reaches his
running peak.
II Young Simms lasts four years
with N. Y. U. and Won Filing, he
may achieve the clocking and status
that Won Filings foresaw for Frank
Dixon, the grand Negro miller who
beat Gil Dodds three times last
year before going into service.
Dixon Of N. Y. u, who Is click
ing of the mile in less than 4:l0.
was the best Negro miller in track
history. Although the chronicle Of
running is studded with great Ne
gro performers, all Of their great
names were associated with shorter
distances than the mile. They spe-
cialized in the sprints-chaps like
Jesse owen, Eddie Tolan, Ralph
Metcalfe, Eulace Peacock and Bar
ney Edwell.
We asked Won Filing, why did
Negro runners specialize in the
sprints?"
He replied. ut was Just imitation.
They followed in the spike tracks
Of Negroes who had done well at
the short distances. Even Dixon
wasn't sure whether he should try
the mile - felt that he was ventur-
ing into a questionable distance for
men Of his race"
Can l7-year-old Simms Of Har-
lem become a great Negro miller?
Won Filing said, "he certainly
can-three or four years from now
1 will not predict that he will es-
tablish any new world records; but
at that time he will beat anyone I
know Of who can run against him.
If he can continue In competition,
he at least should be the greatest
Negro miller of all time"

its first goal. Bill (Flash) Hollett,
recently acquired from the Boston
Bruins, scored the tying goal In the
third period. Connie Dion Of Corn
wall, another Of the amateurs who
filled in for goal tender Jim Franks,
made several brilliant saves as Mon
treal tried desperately to break the
tie before 9,536 fans. The third
amateur, Eddie Bruneteau OF Quebec
replaced Modere Bruneteau, regular
Detroit forward. Elmer Lach and
Maurice Richard scored the Mon
treal tallies.

Get IL Up For The
Crippled Kids!
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

The Crippler marched again ia
1913.
The Crippler marched. ana thou
sands Of Americans, mostly innocent
children, may not walk again.
For the Crippler is INFANTILE
PARALYSIS and there Is no known
preventive, no cure.
But research and treatment spon-
sored by the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis goes on rE1-
ceasingly and helps many victims
In their often hopeless, always pain
full battle against this dread scourge.
This costs money. The Founda-
tons annual fund appeal, this year
from January IL to 81, win reach its
climax as usual in nationwide cele-
brations Of the presidents birthday.
There is one beacon shining
brightly and bravely along the dark
path to freedom from this myster-
ious disease. The money contrib
uted generously by q free people to
their National Foundation was re-
sponsible for the fact that we were
better prepared for an epidemic in
l943 than ever before.
The Crippler will march again in
l944-and especially as long as
there is unavoidable wartime crowd
iEg and mass movement Of people.
But the March Of the Crippler,
stalking Americas future citizens,
sabotaging Americas war effort,
striking ruthlessly In the dark, Is
himself stalked by the lns.sSr~ ne
March Of Dimes, a stream Of silver
ammunition" fighting the children's
enemy on the nations healthfront.

GLASS E. LOOPS
NOW POSSIBLE,
BY AMENDMENTS

Durham, N. O., Jan. i4-CUP)-
officials of the National Associa-
ton Of Professional Baseball Clubs
said today that amendments passed
at the recent minor league meeting
had made possible the development
Of Glass (E) leagues, expected TO
prove popular in areas where war
plant workers can double as ball
players on one or two days each
week.
The minimum salary limit for a
team was reduced from $500 to $3.50
monthly and the teams in Class (E)
leagues hereafter will be required
to play only two games per week.
officials said.
The first Glass (E) league in the
history OF professional baseball, the
twin ports league composed OF
teams in Duluth, Mimi, and Super
Tor, Wis, began operation last sea-
son but disbanded on July IL when
the minor league executives failed
to grant the concessions which were
embodied in the amendments passed
recently.
Under these new regulations,
there is a big field for Glass (E)
ball, especially during the war, +"
said Fl H. Dade of Duluth, presi-
dent OF the Twin Ports circuit.
Love The Game
"The boys and men who played
with us last year have other jobs
and cannot play more than two
games week." he said. They are
we'll paid and do not require or eX-
pect big salaries. They want to play
for the love Of the game and for
the recreation and the fans who are
sold on the game. Such leagues will
afford a start for many an am
bilious youngster and will serve as
feeder circuits for the Glass CD
and Co leagues
The association also announced
that the Ohio State league had
been reoreanized and that it would
start the 1914 season as a Class Cd
circuit.
