TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IN

LONDON. June 18. "Take every
railr6ad engine in Europe to Russia
and it will still take you two years
to build up that country's transpor
tation system to normal,"
This was the startling statement
made by one of the foreign office
experts on the Russian trade situa
tion, and was advanced as an argu
ment against those who talk opti
mistically of getting vast supplies
of grain and foodstuffs out of Rus
sia In a "day."
Russia's transportation systom

(Br United PrrM to The Bend Bulletin)
CHICAGO, June 18. The adop
tion of the resolution endorsing gov
ernment ownership of railroads by
tho American Federation of Labor
convention at Montreal is interpreted
by leaders of tho proposed third
party as a step supporting the move
ment. Officials of both the committee of
iS and the national labor party are
Jubilant over the adoption of the
resolution. They believe thnt this
means that organized labor will en

party. The success of the proposed
party will depend on the democratic
national convention, according to
bull nioosers of 1912, with whom
third party promoters nre flirting.

of the red tape which must some
times be severed, every man ' "who
haS anything coming from the gov
ernment can usually get it. She
offered the assistance of the Red

As the result of an appeal mad
recently through the columns of The
Bulletin, D. H. Peoples,: who has
been car(ng for a shipment of Chi
nese pheasants sent the Bend Rod &
Gun club by the state game commis
sion this spring, now has three hens
industriously working to hatch four
dozen eggs lnld by the wildfowl
while in captivity. Sportsmen who
owned setting hens saw in The Bul
letin Mr. Peoples' request for foster
mothers for unborn pheasant chicks
nnd removed the hens from their own
eggs to cover those with which the
pheasants refused to be bothered.
In another day or two Mr. Peoples
will turn the pheasants loose In the
fields neas' Bend, whore;1 in, nat
ural environment, they will nest in
their own way, he believes.' ,

Look to Outside fkiurces.
Renewed hope was given the own
ers of gaslesa auto today when W.
R. Speck, Bend manager for the
Standard Oil company, annonnced
that two small tanks of motor fuel,
with a total capacity of probably
12,000 gallons, are on the way from
the east, and will arrive In Bend
about Tuesday of next week. The
Information came yesterday after
noon in response to a wire sent to
the Portland office by Mr. Speck,
Inquiring if a shipment to some oth
er point could not be diverted to
this city. The answer came that a
supply had already been started for
Bend. Shipping notices received
this morning confirmed the tele
graphic advices.
With normal consumption at this
point 3000 gallons a day, sales for
essential uses totaling 1500 daily,
and no Information at hand re
garding any other shipments, ra
tioning of gasoline will stilt be neces
sary, however, Mr. Speck states. Be
cause of the expected supply next
week, auto stages between Bend and
Burns, and Bend and Klamath Falls,
which were cut off yesterday, will
now receive enough for operation,
and city and county trucks wilt- be
taken care of, with other slight addi
tions to the essentials list.
Even after the receipt of the two
promised tanks. It will be impossible
to furnish fuel for pleasure cars, Mr.
Speck fears, but this demand may be
taken care of by the contemplated
Purchase of gasoline by the Bend Au-
sources.
Mr. Speck expects that the short
age will continue for another month.
BOXING RULES AD!
BLOW AT ' STALLING
Champions Must Defend Titles At
Least Every Six Months New
Weight Scale Is Provided.
, By Henry 3. FsrrcII.
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
. NEW YORK, June IS. Stalling
fighters and champions who keep
their titles "on ice" are dealt body
blows in the new rules to govern
boxing in New York). '. . ; ; '
Termed by experts as the most
perfect set of regulations yet com
piled to correct the abuses that
brought the fight game into disre
pute, the new rules are of national
interest because they are the ideals
of the International Sporting club,
which aspires to become the ruling
body of boxing in America.
Stalling became the major cancer
of boxing with the prevalence of no
decision laws and the policy of cham
pions in refusing ' to defend their
titles grew with the increasing size
of purses, which made their cham
pionships more valuable, and It be
came an incurable ill through the
absence of rules to curb their, inac
tivity. .
-' Under these new rules stalling be
comes a foul, for which the offender
can be disqualified, and champions
are required to defend their, titles
in a bona fide bout to a decision
every six months as long as there Is
an eligible challenger. - r
Perhaps the next most Important
clause is aimed ;: at champions who
take unto themselves the right to fix
the weight for their division. ; This
practice became so marked that Jack
Dempsey nnd Jimmy Wilde have
been said to be the only champions
who can make the weight of their
class. - ;
The poundage In the new weight
scale is slightly ' increased and pro
vides: Flyweight, 112 pounds; ban
tamweight, 118 pounds; ..feather
weight, 126 pounds;' lightweight,
185 '.i pounds; .. welterweight, 147
pounds; middleweight, 160 pounds;
light-heavyweight, 175 pounds;
heavyweight, all over.
