a new medical advisory board ap-
pointed, with DR.. Nal Stevens,
the former football star and coach,
as chairman.
Il wanted a man who was an
athlete as we'll being outstanding
IN his profession" Christenberry
explained.
He ordered 30-day suspensions
for boxers knocked out and put
into effect the National Boxing
Associations eigth-count rule on
knockdowns.
He has ordered physical ex-
aminations for referees and says
II intend to use the best ones pos
sible, no matter where they come
from" And if any manager thinks
he's going to have any say about
the officials. he's got another guess
coming.
Christenberry put his foot down
quick at the very first protest.
IF I'm going to have officials
working for me, I want those in
whom I can put confidence" he
said. And when they work. they're
going to have my backing as long
as they're honest"
Vetoes Managers Demands.
Before the Joe Louis-Rocky
Marciano fight. Louis manager,
Marshall Miles. said he didn't
want Ruby Goldstein to referee.
Miles apparently indicated Louis
wouldn't go through with the bout
If Goldstein officiated. Goldstein
had voted for Jersey Joe Walcott
over the Brown Bomber in their
first fight.
Christenberry said he told Miles:
YOU'D better tell Jim Norris tthe
promoter) to have his box Office
prepared for refunds because
Goldstein will be the referee"
Goldstein refereed.
The same thing happened be-
fore the recent Walter Cartier
Kid Gavilan bout. The Gavilan
camp objected to Goldstein.
Goldstein refereed.
BY now the managers have an
idea who is running the show.
TITS not just the boxers ano
officials I'm concerned with,
Christenberry said. THE public
has to be protected, too. It's the
fans who pay the freight. I'm
going to try and see that they gel
good matches"
The cosrnopolite from Milan
Tenn, said there was a lot o1
things to be done but he intended
to consider everything thoroughly
before making any moves.
Il have had we'll meaning people
come to me and say. why don't
you publicly hold a sweeping in,
vestigation?" But I'm not out tt
ruin boxing. I am out to correc'
what's wrong. We're going to dG
things steadily, one at time"
Man of Many Experiences.
Christenberry's ideas come from
varied experiences in many job
which have taken him around thu
world. He lost his right arm dur
ing World War I in France whel

When he received his discharge h
took UP golf as sort of self

II Truman Had His WAY

In recent months we have heard a
lot Of criticism of the Congress for
not letting Truman have his way. In
the words Of the happy warrior, let
US look at the record and see what
would have happened to our country
if spineless Congress had given
Truman everything he asked for.
If Truman had had his way, every
farm in America today would be oper-
ating under the Brannan Plan
socialized agriculture.
If Truman had had his way, there
would have been no federal legis-
lation to imprison Communist spies,
traitors, and saboteurs in the Govern
ment departments.
If Truman had had his way, Red
China would today be a member of
the United Nations, to vote with
Russia and her Iron Curtain prison
crs.
If Truman had had his way, the
country would today be saddled with
socialized medicine under that great
medical genius lawyer Oscar Ewing.
If Truman had had his way, Ameri-
can atomic secrets would have been
traded to other nations.
If Truman had had his way, under
his APPOINT program every nation in
the world would today have a direct
call on the United States Treasurer
for technical assistance and economic
development loans.
If Truman had had his way, there
would today be no Taft-Hartley pro
vision requiring official registration
Of Communists and labor unions.
If Truman had had his way, every
major river in America today would
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1951-10-04

be a part of some T. V. A., with State
and local government submerged by
Federal bureaucrats.
If Truman had had his way, every
school in America would today be
under direct supervision of the Wash
ington bureaucracy-soc edu-
cation.
If Truman had had his way, hous-
ing and home building would today be
a complete Government monopoly,
with subsidies for socialized housing.
If Truman had had his way, there
would have been no investigation of
Communism in the State Department
and other federal agencies. His red
herring statement of August, 1913,
would have ended the Alger Hiss case.
If Truman had had his way, total
federal spending since 1916 would
have been about $75 billion more than
it has been to date That is the ac-
cumulated cost of all the new pro-
grams Truman proposed which were
turned down by a resolute and wise
Congress.
Had it not been for the defenders of
constitutional government in the
House and the Senate, Truman would
have had his way in all these things.
He urged each Of these programs at
least once, some several times.
In one major decision Truman had
his way. He plunged this nation into
war in Korea. In doing so, Truman
circumvented the Constitution by cal
ling the war in Korea police action
Only Congress has the right to de-
clare war.
Truman seeks blanket authority to
send American boys to new wars all
over the world. Truman's POLICE
