formally selected by the New Jersey
state boxing commission as referee
for tho Dempsey-Carpentier bout
July 2.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., June 22.
Selection of Harry Ertle as referee, of
tho contest, between Jack Dempsey
and Georges Carpentier at Jersey City
July 2, Is entirely satisfactory to
Dempsey.
Joseph Cassidy. secretary of the
New Jersoy boxing commission, wns
expected officially to announce the
selection of Ertle today. Dempsey
however, had not discussed the sltua-
Hon wllh Jack Kearns, his managor,
as Kearns had not returned from New
York.
"So it's Ertlo, Is It," Dempsey said.
"Well that's good enough for me if
it suits Kearns. Kearns does the man
aging and I try to do the fighting. 1
can truthfully say this, I honestly
don't care who is In there to referee.
It wouldn't muke any difference to me
if Descamps refereed. I think Carpen
tier feels the saino about tho referee
question as I do."
Dempsey Is more concerned over
the announcement he has been named
as co-resKindent in a divorce case in
Pawhuska, Okla., than he Is over the
referee.
Today ho Instructed his attorney,
Ray J. Cannon of Milwaukee, to In
vestigate and start suit for libel if
necessary against F. 1L Boulanger,
who In his petition for divorce named
Dempsey.
"Dempsey Is no home wrecker and
this thing has upset him" Cannon said.

anybody thero." ' ''

vention overthrow a ruling made by

The appeal of tho boycott support
ers from the ruling of President

drastic boycott provisions express
ing sympathy for the Irish cause.
The action of the convention com
pleted tho defeat of the supporters of
the boycott declaration, which they
claimed had been dratted by "high of
ficials, of tho Irish republic." The
boycott supporlers contested evfu'y
effort to bring tho sympathetic reso
lution to a vole without Its boycott
provisions, by raising points of order
and attempting to havo tho entire
matter referred back to the commit
tee for re-conslderatlon.
ItiM'r Is Favored
The convention unanimously adopt
ed a resolution urging modification of
tho Volstead act to permit manufac
ture and sale of beer. Officers and
the executive council were Instructed

congress.
Tho Irish resolution adopted by
the convention wns drafted by a com
mittee of Irish sympathizers, headed
by Pnter Brady of New York, who op
posed the boycott. This declaration
follows:
Ileafflrniod tho action of tho Mon

TALK OF WAR
WITH JAPAN IS

Dr. Fullerton ddresses the
Wednesday 'Forum On Yel
low Peril Keep Japanese
Out, But Don't Swallow War
Talk; Is Suggestion.
"Any tulk of war with Japan Is ab
surd, and you neod lose no sleep
about it," Dr. Kulkerson, for 20 years
an cducutor und diplomat In the
Orient told tho regular Wednesday
noon Korum of tho Chamber of Com
merce. Dr. Kulkerson who is a field
reprosentutlve of tho Conservation
Department of tho Methodist church
will speak tonight ut 8 o'clock on the
"World Crisis," at the Eirst Metho
dist church.
"Tho war talk you hoar In this
country is puid propaganda sent out
from Tokio and New York to detract
the attention of the Amoricun people
while they seize an empire in China
and Siberia," said Dr. Fulkorson.
"Japan is a crowded nation. They
need room. Thoy must expand. When
the white man attempts to halt their
natural expansion, then, and thou
ulonn will there ho war.
"Thorn aro threo reasons why Japan
wants no war with America. In the
first place, they huve no credit. Over
US pur cent of their foreign trade Is
with America. I hear much about
tho Japanese seizing tho Philippines,
They might do It In tho first .'10 duys
or so, hut we would leave them nn
eighth into nation. I doubt very
much if Japan would take tho Phil
ippines if we gave them a deed for
tho islunds. Tho logic of tho Toklo
Htalesmen Is that no great nation
can bo founded in tho tropics. For
mosa Is a' while elephant to Japan,
they dlu llko fleas in that climate.
The JupaneHo want no murch to
wards tho equator."
Dr. Kulkerson said ho was unnltor
ulily opposed to importation of As
iatic labor, and cited that Japanese
control r3 per cent of tho roming
houses In Seattle, havo a foothold In
tho city of Portland, and control In a
luigo measure tho cafe business of
tho coast.
Tho remarks of Dr. Fulkerson wore
listoncd to attentively, and recolved
with Interest. Ho is nn entertaining
and Instructlvo speaker of wide re

In tho world on Oriental conditions

Everything was peaceful when the
