BRITAIN TO MAKE SELF INDEPENDENT! Will Attempt to Secure Own| Fields of Raw Materials London, April 20.—To enable . the British empire to_resist any pressure that might be applied by any power or group of powers, in peace or war, by control of raw materials and com- modities essential to its well being, the royal commission on the national | resource, trade and legislation, pro- poses that an investigation be under- taken to discover new sources of sup- ply, and substitutes for raw materials controlled by other countries and to prevent waste of minerals. Te- port is signed by Lord D'Abernar, Sir H. Rider, Haggard, Sir W. Lorimer, Sir G. E. Foster, of Canada; J. R. Sin- clair, of New Zeajand; Sir J.-W. S. Lagerman of South Africa, and: Sir Edgar B. Bowring of Newfoundland. Concerning . the soldier-settlers, the commission . reported: “We did nat see during our visit to Canada, nor so far as we can gather, is there in the other self-governing dominions, any strong immediate desire on the part of ex-soldiers to turn to the land, On the contrary, we found that soms | of those who had previously worked on the land showed no inclination to return ta it.” ‘Women are urged to emigrats in larger numbers than men, and a scheme is outlined for the interchange of school teachers between the United Kingdom and the dominions. Cheap, speedy and efficlent trans- port between all parts of the empire is advocated as a vital necessity for the sclentific development of imperial trade. Transpart of this nature can- not be;obtained except by the use of Vessela of great lengtli and draught. Such vessels cannot be employed un- less there exists harbors of a. si: Ly partionlarly of depth adequate to- re- ceive them and suggestions for secur- ing a uniform depth at the chief ports of the variaus routes are made, On the question of ocean freights which have risen ce the war and which may not retura to pre-war level for a long time the yeport says.” We are that operations of the steamship companies should not re- main longer without some measure of government control.” State acquisition 1s recommended of a cable across the Atlantic with the necessary land lines between Nova Scotia and Montreal, there to connect with existing services administered by the Pacific Control board. A reduc- tion in cable rates is urged especially on press traffic. The report says it is possible to ar- range new imperial mail services by 1922 when the latest and existing mail contracts expire. High speed is ad- voeated -and a 20-knot service from the United Kingdom to Eastern Can- ada is suggested. FORCING THE TIGRIS. British Depend on Arab Carpenters With Strange Results. Bagdad, April 20.—In their success- ful advance on Bagdad the British used some of the queerest craft in the world to navigate the Tigris. These included the heavy teak-tim- bered craft which the Arab describes as chias and of which the ship car- penters attached to the force built 130. They have short, stubby masts and just 'a bit of sall. Larger ' craft of similar design are called saffra. A to- tal of 310 boats of these types were used for freight in the advance on Bagdad. These queer craft kept in touch ‘with the advanced base throughout the operations nor(h\vard from the Persian gulf. Other craft used ‘ included the “ballam” or canoe, ranging from ofer 100 tons down to the tiny craft of threejquarters of a ton which causes Basrah to be described as “The Ven- ice of the East,” the ‘“mashoof,” a nollow wedge-shapdd craft for nav- igating the reed mazes of the great marshes; and the guffah, a round basket, four feet deep and from four | made | feet to nine feet in. dlameter, of palmfrond ribs held together by juniper wattles. LEONARD DELIVERS K 0. Clever Gothamite Removes Only Rival for Welsh’c Crown in Seven Rounds —Mitchell Game to the End. Milwaukee, Wis., April 20.—Power- ful, crafty and briliant, dfsplaying every attribute of a real champion, Benny Leonard of New York knocked out Ritchie Mitchel of this city in the seventh round of their bout at the Auditorium last night. A right to the jaw proved the un- doing of Mitchell in the fateful sev- enth. He went to the canvas for a count of nine. With a glassy stare in his eyes he arose only to meet another of Leonard’s relentless and powerful rights with his jaw. Staggering all over the ring, yet refysing to concede defeat, Mitchell took™ half a dozen more rights. Still hé would not go down. Finally Referee Duffy gath- ered up Mitchell in his arms and the Western boxer collapsed. Even as he slipped into uncon- sciousness tears streamed down Mitchell’s cheeks. H? had been so con- fident that he could ‘outpoint and pos- sibly stop the sensational lightweight from the Atlantic coast. By virtue of his victory, Leonard is acclaimed the American lightweight champion. Thé New Yorker steps into the American boxing niche oc- cupied by Willie Ritchie until the Cali- fornian vacated his title. It had been arranged that a committee of the leading experts would give a decision in the event the bout went the limit of ten rounds. These craft carry about 40 tons.

Danforth, of the North Fork, club medalist in the mid-April 8olf tournament, and Robert Hunter, of Wee Burn, fulfilled the hopes and expectations of the gallery and the newspaper men by staging a highly exciting contest in yesterday’s round at Pinehurst, N, czl Danforth was 1 upfat the turn and Hunter 1 up at the fifteenth. Danforth evened matters ‘at the sixteenth., The seventeenth was halved in 3, and Danforth on the eighteenth and the match by sinking a. fifty-foot putt from off the green for a great 3 on this 402-yard hole, while Hunter’s third was lying dead to the cup. Danforth’s card was 39— 88—77, Hunter's 41—38—179, The state senate today house bill fixing a license tax of $500 a day. for race meetings at Kentucky tracks within twenty miles of cities of 200,000 and $200 a day for all others except those at state and county fairs. An amendment yet to be acted upon by the house applies the license tax only to those tracks under the juris- diction of the state racing commis- sion. The effort would, it was stated, emm‘pt tracks devoted to trotting races. The mayor of Memphis, Tenn., yes- terday issued an order barring Les Darcy, of Australia, from engaging in any bouts in this city. There had been & lot of interest raised in.the report that the Maitland boy was to box one of the leading American middleweights in Memphis, but the action of the mayor hands Les an- other legal knockout. Club owners fn the American League will be:forced to «close their parks if a war tax on baseball, sug- program, is demanded from them in- stead of from the patrons of the sport. President Johnson of the American League said today: “I have figured that the tax would amount to about $250,000 for the season. That would more than wipe out our profits, We would have to close our gates.” President August Herrmann of the Cincinnati Nationals, before leaving with his team for St. Louis Wednes- day night stated he would endeavor to arrange for a transfer of the two games scheduled to be played by St. Louis and Cincinnati in Cincinnati on May 30 (Memorial Day) to St. Louis. The Natfonal automobile races are set for that date at Sharonville, Ohio, and President Herrmann desires to avoid a conflict with these events.

Johnny Kilbane, champton feather: weight, outpointed Matt Brock of Cleveland by a wide margin last night in their ten-round mo-decision bout at Cleveland, Ohip. Kilbane floored Brock six times in the first round, but was unable to put over the decisive punch. Brock recuperated and fought back hard in the last few rounds, but was outboxed and outfought by Kil- bane, Brock not being able to recover entirely from the effects of the first round beating he received. ‘The Brooklyn National League club announced yesterday that the Balti- more club of the International League had assumed the contract with Pitch- er Ed Appleton and will suspend the player for not reporting.

KENNEDY WINS New York Bricklayer Leads Way to Classic Field in the Boston FNVent— No Records Broken, Boston, April 20.—His thirty-seven years showing gray streaks in his hair but making him none the less nimble and even more vigoraus than any of his fifty younger rivals, Willlam J.

He set out to lower no records. All he wanted was to win, and that he did by a margin of 1 minute and 41 4-4 seconds over Sidney H. Hatch of Chicago. Kennedy ran the twenty-five miles from Ashland Center to the Boston A. A. in 2 hours 28 minutes and 37 1-5 seconds. This time was more than seven minutes behind the record for the race—2:21:18 1-5—set by Mike Ryan of the Irish American A. C. of New York in 1913. A However, only seven times in the ‘twenty previous races has the winner dohe better than the time recorded by Kennedy, DRINK A GLASS OF REAL HOT WATER BEFORE BREAKFAST. Says we wiil both loock and feel clean, sweet and fresh and avold lliness. —_— Sanitary science nas ot late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The lat- |' est application of its untiring research is the recommendation that, it is as necessary'to attend to internal sanita- tion of the drainage system of the hu- man body as it is to the drains of the house. ‘Those of us who are accustomed to feel}dull and heavy when we arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid - stom- ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opdming the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal. polsonous stagnant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or vell, should, each morning before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom- ach, liver and bowels the previous day’s indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully in- vigorating, leans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acid- ity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the rhosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large vol- ume of water from the blood and get- ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs. The millions of people who are both- ered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness; others who. have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly-complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of lime- stone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little, but is suffi- cient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal san- itation.
