IRE FIGHTERS DEF t an income tax voucher comm » have been paid them. If these in their contentions as to amounts received, and if they paid “income tax” on the amounts supposed to be received it has been estimated by ex-) pert? that said boxers and managers would ada many millions of dollars to the United States treasury, It was Abraham LincolIn who said something about ‘you can fool all of} the people some of the time, but you) can't fool some of the people all of the, time.” Boxers and their managers have! overlooked the fact that our old Uncle’ not be fooled. Now Uncle Sam is se to have devised a system of checking up on boxers’ and managers’ earnings that simply can't be beat and the system is to be put into effect be- fore very many months pass by. Bill Rocap, sports editor of the Philadelphia Public Ledger writes that has learned on splendid authority | that such @ system has been devised at Washington. The system is such that no one will be able to conceal facts on actual amounts paid for box- ers’ services. The system has already been thoroughly tested and has proved | itself without a fault. Rocap says the, system is an intricate one, but never- theless a very simple one. “It cannot be beaten,” says Rocap, “and like the parimutuel machine it will get its) share. The first man who undertakes! to beat the system will go to jail.” Up to this time it has been plain sailing for all boxers no matter wheth-| er their claims are $10 or $100,000 for a fight. Fighters’ demands have not only reached a point where promoters are compelled to double admission| charges, but Uncle Sam has been, led/ to investigate. Further, some of the so-called purses made public are just! efforts to try and fool the public. The} public hasbeen fooled long enough and is new wise to the fact that the large purses are more or less ‘mythical. On the other hand the Jack Dempsey's, the Carpentier’s and others, who are said to get fabulous amounts, must show the exact amount received. There is no question but that Dempsey gets large amounts for his fights, but whether the amount is as publicly stated Uncle Sam will very soon dis- cover.

None of the taxes will every probably be announced as this is really a confidential matter, but the fact re- mains that Uncle Sam is going to get every nickle due him and through the boxers and managers considerable of the country’s war debts will be paid. If nothing else this new system: will make a lot of inferior boxers tell the truth. It will call a halt to the $25,- 000 claims that inconspicuous boxers Janve been wont to heap on the public.
