HARDING IS CALLED
TO LEAD CONGRESS
Taxation and Tariff Changes
Not Yet Accomplished.
DAWES' AID EFFECTIVE
President Holds Aloor From Dic
tating to Legislative Bodies, but
Seems Forced to-Intervene.

WASHINGTON. E. C. July 2. Prac.
tically every well-informed person in
Washington now believes that Presi
dent Harding will have to take to
ward congress the same attitude
Roosevelt did. This will be repug
nant both to his personal tempera
ment and to his theory of govern
ment. (
Harding, when he was a senator,
felt as strongly as any other repub
lican senator did that Wilson's regime
was dictatorial and that the presence
of congress in the machinery of gov
ernment had been minimized to an
unfortunate degree. For Harding
now to assume the came role of lead
ership that Wilson and Roosevelt did
will be a wrench to all his past be
liefs. But the thing is bound to
happen.
When It does come, Harding will
find it much easier to take control
and exercise it than either Roosevelt
or Wilson did. Roosevelt and Wilson
had to fight for their control and had
to struggle constantly to keep it.
Harding's control will be given to him
without opposition. The strength of
the cabinet he chose and the appoint
ments he has made in other fields
have given the public confidence in
his energy and in his wish to do
things in a big way.
Dawea' Aid to Be Effective.
If General Dawes follows out his
announced plans of summoning to
Washington 20 to 30 of the business
loaders of the country to reorganize
the government, that will be one more
example of the kind of thing that
gives the public confidence in th ad
ministration, as against congress. If
there is dramatized a fight for the
reorganization of the government in
the interest of economy and. effi
ciency between 20 to 30 men who
have the confidence of their com
munities, and, on the other hand, a
congress resisting in order to hold
onto old privileges, the public will
eide with Harding and Dawes and his
volunteer assistants.
Dawes Is an energetic person, with
an understanding of crowd psychology
and a geuius for publicity. He will
be of great help to Harding. . The
Dawes appointment, coupled to a
score of other things that Harding
has done, put him in such a position
that he will be the winner at the
start In any effort that he makes for
control of congress.
Not only has Harding a good start
toward prestige with the public.
Further than that there are no strong
characters either in the senate or in
the lower house to resist Harding's
taking command. If there were
strong characters in the senate or in
the lower house, the situation would
not have , arisen. Harding did not
want and does not want to take the
leadership of congress. Both by
word and by action he has disavowed
it again and again. The lack of abil
ity on the part of congress to get
things done of its own initiative will
make Harding take hold against his
inclination.
The record of congress is really
pretty bad. It has been in session 11
weeks and the brevity ot Its accom
plishments Is deplorable. Nothing il
lustrates the situation better than the
efTort to achieve peace with Germany.
The senate adopted one resolution and
the house another. Both aimed at
the same object and the only clash
was over phraseology. A legislative
body which could not solve so simple
a matter in 11 weeks ought not to be
surprised if It falls low in public
respect.
President Keeps Hands Off.
For 11 weeks, also the lower house
and the senate pulled and hauled in
effectually as to whether we should
spend $400,000,000 or $500,000,000 on
the navy. During these two pro
longed and futile contentions there is
no doubt that at any moment Presi
dent Harding could have brought so
lution by exerting the pressure of his
office. But up to the present he has
steadfastly refrained from doing so.
The one piece of legislation that
Harding has directly, asked this con
gress to enact was the bill giving
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
power to reorganize our foreign
loans. Aside from this specific re
quest that Harding made to congress,
he did as party leader announce in
the beginning that this congress
would enact taxation and tariff
measures. It is the delay as to these
two measures that has stirred up the
country and has caused pressure on
Harding to take command.
As to taxation, it can almost be
said that nothing has been done so
far. The Benate finance committee
held some hearings. Most of those
who attended were special classes of
business men who wished minute
changes In the schedules. The hear
ings were dreary and desultory, and
in the end they were closed with a
sense of futility. On so important a
subject as the revision of taxes, al
most nothing substantial has been
done.
There is a group of leaders who
believe that in addition to most of
our present taxes we shall have to
have the sales tax. Most members of
the lower house of congress are op
posed to the sales tax. The leaders
who believe it must come because
there Is no other way of raising the
money are marking time. The con
sequence is that nothing substantial
la accomplished one way or the other.
As to the tariff, only little more
can be said. The ways and means
committee has held hearings and In
prolonged sessions has written a bill.
but the writing of a tariff bill by the
ways and means committee is always
merely a beginning and in the pres
ent year it means even less than
usual. Between the bill that the ways
and means committee has written and
the tariff that ultimately will be a
, law there probably will be little re
semblance. All of the real tariff
making is yet ahead of us. Some of
those who have watched congress
longest believe it is likely that we
shall reach December before the new
tariff is made into law.
It is this delay, the failure of con-
press to develop leaders and its fail-
' ure even to know what it wants that
has brought about the Imperative call
to Harding to assume leadership.

Adventure Abroa-l Held Taking
Cash Needed for Problems

BY WILLIAM BIRD.
PARIS. July 2 (Special cable.)
"Is the patient out of danger?"
' "No, the doctors are still with him."
This bit of humor In one of the
Paris, papers this week applies ap
propriately to the present state of
Europe. Europe still has her doctors
at her bedside and if their method of
treatment is continued, there is in
deed little hope of recovery.
Premier Lloyd George made an in
effectual attempt this week to doctor
the Irish situation. Although every
body hoped the three-cornered confer
ence would come off, Eamonn de Va
lera seems amply justified in his atti
tude. Obviously he could not afford, as
the undisputed representative of the
great Irish majority, to enter a con
ference which was certain in advance
to place him In th. minority.
Proposal Considered Dabloas.
Naturally he preferred first of all
to deal with the Irish minority in a
conference in which he would hold
the winning cards. The refusal of
the Ulstermen, with English backing.
to meet De Valera alone emphasizes
therefore the doubtful character of
the original Lloyd George proposal.
The "doctors" haven't had any bet
ter success with the eastern problem.
The childish appeals of the powers to
King Constantine of Greece, after
their haughty refusal to recognize, or
heed the result of the last Greek elec
tions which restored him to the
throne, have insured the continuance
of war in the near orient to the ulti
mate profit of the bolsheviki cause.
"Doctor" Giolitti's recent efforts in
elections to drown Italian opinion un
der a wave of Fascist! reaction has
resulted not only in his discomfiture,
but in the paralysis of the parlia
mentary government.
Meantime military reactionaries In
France are working behind the back
of Premier Briand seeking to attempt
a similar stifling process through the
means of an oppressive censorship
and star chamber laws, with immense
risks to France's internal peace.
Berlin Government Target.
It is not unnatural in the circum
stances that German goose-steppers
should be using the present oppor
tunity to undermine the liberal Wlrth
government in Berlin.
In the midst of the imbroglio appeals
go out to America for help. This, of
course, means financial help. But
America may justly ask what has
been done with the help already fur
nished. Thursday came the announcement
that the French Industrial Bank of
China had failed. Several hundred
millions of francs of French capital
was invested in the institution. This
bank was started to rival the interna
tional consortium, and immediately
launched upon a mad career of spec
ulation in Chinese produce, as well as
Chinese exchange. By an ironical co
incidence, its failure occurred on the
very eve of the reopening of the great
German bank in China.
French Prestige Suffers.
Not only has French capital, sorely
needed at home for reconstruction,
been squandered, but French prestige
in the far east has suffered. Great
Britain, although heavily indebted to
the United States, is spending hun
dreds of millions monthly on warlike
ventures in Egypt and Mesopotamia,
destined to protect British capital en
gaged there. -
Exported capital is thus not only a
source of heavy private losses to Eu
rope, but also the cause of immense
military budgets.
Meantime appeals continue to
America to furnish capital for do
mestic enterprises which local capi
talists do not deem profitable enougn.
Frankly, the time for optimism
about Europe's condition has not yet
arrived.
KLAMATH HEARING IS SET
Fred Williams to Attend Confer
ence of Commissioners.
SALEM. Or., July 2. (Special.)
Fred A. Williams, chairman of the
Oregon public service commission, to
day received a telegram from the in
terstate commerce commission at
Washington, D. C, to the effect that
a hearing would be held at Klamath
Falls July 13 to consider the appli
cation for increased rates on -he
Weed-Klamath, Falls branch of the
Southern Pacific lines. Members of
the. California public service commis
sion also will be present at the hear
ing. It was charged in the application
filed by the people of Klamath Falls
that the present rates on the Weed
Klamath branch of the Southern
Pacific lines are excessive, and that
the mill operators aid , other ship
pers are unable to compete in the
eastern markets.
CHAMPION IS HARD PUT
(Continued From First Page.)
American like a tiger. His left
crunched against Jack's chin and he
clinched. Dempsey began pecking at
hi body.
Carpentier broke and leaped back,
only to spring back again, with a ter
rific right-hander that caught Demp
sey high on the side of the head.
To the amazement of- the crowd
Carpentier was forcing the fight.
But Dempsey, not to be driven back,
lowered his head and charged.
His blows were driven home at
short range, and at times he shot
his clenched fists through small
openings into the Frenchman's body.
This -was his plan of battle to
wear Carpentier down. In the mid
dle of the round Carpentier drove a
right squarely - against Dempsey's
chin. The blow would have knocked
out any but a man of iron. Demp
sey's knees shook and his face
turned gray. He looked sick and
dazed.
I -ui pwry Makes Recovery.
For a moment even the grim
determination was wiped from his
face. Another such blow and he
would have gone down. But even as
Carpentier drew back his hand
Dempsey recovered and lunged for
ward, driving at Carpentier's body
so hard that Georges was forced to
give ground before the attack.
Now came blow on blow, so fast
the eye could hardly follow.
Carpentier's lefts and rights shot
home, and Dempsey clouted grimly
in return. Once Georges, who
seemed to put every ounce of his
strength into one crashing blow
when he saw a sure opening, swung !
so furiously at Dempsey's chin that.
merely grazing it, he whirled and fell
headlong through the ropes.
Ertle jumped forward but Demp
sey, a sportsman, had already started
back to let his opponent come back.
Carpentier Blipped off the ropes and
started after Dempsey again.
Another Attack la Made.
"His blue eyes were full of battle.
His smooth brow corrugated. You
could see him think. Circling, he
attacked again, and this time his
flashing right fist reached Demp
sey's chin and shook htm.
Dempsey pushed in, still grim, and
forced Georges to retreat.
The bell rang. A great fighting
bound, but he showed some effect
of body punches.
The crowd buzzed with excitement
during the minute of rest. There was
no doubt about it Carpentier wa as
advertised. This was to be no clncli
for the champion.-
Carpentier came out for the second
to ttack again. His face was a
mask of concentration, through which
glimmered now and then a slight
cynical smile. He studied Dempsey.
Blows were exchanged with little
advantage.
It went along to the middle of the
round, and, as if he had been saving
himself for a supreme effort, he
leaped in and drove a crashing right
hander to Dempsey's Jaw.
Before Dempsey could recover, Car
pentier had struck again and again
and still again, all right-hand blows,
with furious speed and strength be
hind them.
- Dempsey Reel Back.
Dempsey reeled back, his knees
bent and his legs shook. He was staggering-
He wavered to one side a
little before he could turn to meet
his man, and again Carpentier clout
ed him on the chin.
Dempsey made a few quick steps,
and, like a bluff-bowed ship beating
off shore against a heavy sea, went
lurching ahead.
He waa dazed, but still grimmer,
more doggedly determined for the
beating that came to him.
In another moment there was no
doubt that Jack Dempsey was a
champion, no doubt that he could
take punishment and fight, for Car
pentier had hit him harder than any
man ever hit him before and he was
weathering it.
Dempsey's Blow Mild.
Carpentier tried another sally and
Jack met him, swinging blow for
blow.
For once Dempsey was wild. His
fists hit nothing but the empty air
as the Frenchman changed his plan
for a moment and slipped deftly out
of danger.
The second was Carpentier's round
but it was still anybody's fight.
Still as Dempsey went to his corner,
his seconds worked on him furiously.
and Jack Kearns. his veneer of calm
ness gone, put a trembling hand on
the ropes and leaned over to give
hurried instructions.
Carpentier in his corner looked
anxiously across the ring. He had a
red lump under his left eye and his
nose was slightly cut. Dempsey was
still uiimarked.
Start Is Like Whirlwind.
The third started like another whirl
wind. Dempsey went straight across
the ring, and Carpentier slipped deftly
away and ducked under a blow that
might have dropped him. He was
studying Dempsey again, watching
keenly for an opening intent on hold
ing his advantage and taking less
risk of being stopped by Dempsey's
slashing blows. Dempsey held his
hands high just under his chin as
if to guard against the right hand
blows that had dazed him before.
He .was as strong as ever. Car
pentier missed two or three times
and as they came Int close quarters
he suddenly shifted Tiis attack and
drove two terrific right-hand upper
cuts beneath Dempsey's high guard,
landing fairly on his chin. His cold
blue fighting eyes were alert, his
lips drawn In a slight smile as he
watched Dempsey's face to see how
much he was hurt.
Apparently he felt, himself master
of the situation, but he was making
no mistakes. The championship was
within reach of his hand. There was
fast, hard fighting, Dempsey pressing
in, driving spiteful punches to the
Frenchman's body ' whenever they
came to grips.
Carpentier Best Boxer..
Carpentier outboxad him. moved
swiftly, leaped in high on his toes
to attack, leaped away to safety, but
Carpentier was weakening. His speed
came in spasmodic spurts, amazing
speed and power, but not continuous
like Dempsey's attack.,
Just before the end of the round
the champion drove a terrible right
hand blow into Carpentier's body.
Carpentier clung hard in a clinch.
He was weak, but it was still any
body's fight when the bell rang. And
in the fourth Dempsey drew on his
reservoir of strength and pressed
Carpentier hard. The French boy
was shifty, foxy, alert. He leaped
into attack and his quick blows
struck home, but they seemed to lack
the crushing force of the round be
fore. The body hammering was
bringing him down.
Caipentier hit Dempsey ' on the
chin, left and right, and Dempsey
retaliated with a. crushing body
blow fairly in the pit. Before Car
nentier could move a short left hook
struck him on the chin and he went
down heavily on his face. The crowd
leaped up. A roar went from the
ringside to the" fluttering American
and French flags in me distance.
Dempsey nrm to Corner.
Dempsey walked back to his cor
ner. Carpentier pulled his legs up a
little and lay there motionless.
Ertle tolled off the seconds up to
nine and at' the sound the game
Frenchman leaped from flat on his
stomach to his feet, whirled and
waited for Dempsey to come to him.
Carpentier was in sad condition then.
He was dazed and weak, but he
slipped aside a little to evade Demp
sey's first rush and faced his man
with gleaming eyes and a smile on
his lips. Dempsey closed deliberately.
here waa a little whirling scrim
mage and out of it shot Carpentier in
a headlong plunge, dropped by Demp
sey's short right-hand blow to the
chin. Dempsey walked away and the
French boy rolled to his Bide, lifted
his leg and tried with all his might
to come up again. His eyes were shut
and his forehead creased with effort.
He raised a little as the count went
on, but fell back helpless when Ertle
reached ten.
Deacnmpa Leaps Into Ring.
Then and only then Descamps leaped
into the ring, his face twisted as with
pain, and lifted the fallen champion
of Europe from the ground. Other
willing hands seized him and dragged
him to his corner. . Dempsey had
turned to wave to Kearns that it was
all over. Now he turned again and,
walking swiftly to Carpentier's cor
ner, seized the still-dazed Frenchman
by the hand. "Too bad, Georges,"
said Dempsey. "You gave me a great
fight."
Carpentier looked up and smiled.
Some sportsman, that French boy, and
some sportsman Jack. Before Demp
sey left the ring Referee Ertle re
moved his gloves, examined them, in
spected his bandages again and found
them all right. It was rumored later
Carpentier broke hi wrist 4n the sec
ond round, but if he did he surely hit
some wonderful blows with it afterward.
