...policy this bill contains provisions which, in my opinion, are not only unsatisfactory but are harmful to the future of this country." The immediate result of the bill will be to relieve taxpayers of 25% of the income tax payable this year. This will be refunded without request if full payment has been made. Those paying in quarterly installments may subtract 50% of the amount to be paid on June 15 and 25% of the amount to be paid on each of the two ensuing payments...

From that point until the end the bout was more like a race than a fight. Carpentier, in full retreat, was near a knock-out in the ninth and tenth rounds. In the ninth he fell without being hit and claimed an injured leg. At this point, Gibbons noticeably let up in his attack when Carp seemed pleading verbally with him in the last two rounds. Unsportsmanlike. Gibbons was decidedly...
