take place on that date if It can be
stopped by Representative Randall of
California, who today characterized the
event as a "disgrace of the nation's
birthday and dishonor to the nation
throughout the world."
In a resolution introduced in the
house this afternoon he requested Gov
ernor Cox of Ohio to use all the power
of his executive office to prevent the
prize fight.
"One of the participants in the pro
posed fight," said Randall, "engaged in
a similar fight a few years ago with
Jack Johnson, a notorious fugitive from
justice, who has confessed that he was
bought oft and threw the fight to his
adversary. Why should bruiser -slack-err,
who were not brave enough to join
the war. against German murderers, be
permitted in this country?"
