Harding Stresses
Need for Real
Americanization
President Says Nation Must
Guard Against Those Who
Attack From Inside—Dis
cusses Other Topics.
By Associated Pres*.
Portland. Ore., July 4.—President
Harding, speaking at an Independ
ence day' gathering here today, de
clared the nation should demand that
"every man wearing the habiliments
of an American citizen must he an
American in his heart and soul.”
The chief executive dealt particu
larly with the need for thorough
Americanization of the American peo
ple in his address, but took occasion
to discuss a rariety of topics, includ
ing immigration and transportation—
problems which he contended should
be approached and solved only from
the natonal viewpoint.
"I would like to acclaim the day,”
said the president, “when there is no
room in America, anywhere, for
those who defy the law. add those
who seek our hospitality for the pur
pose of destroying oar institutions
should be depohted or held securely
behind prison walls."
Guard Against Knemies
"This land of ours has little to fear
from those who attack from outside
our borders,” he continued, “hut we
must guard very zealously against
those who work within our borders
to destroy the very institutions which
have given them hospitality. A re
public worth living in is worth living
for. and a republic worth defending
Is worth our patriotic vigilance."
The president delivered his address
at Multnomah field. Accompanied by
Mrs. Harding and members of his
Alaskan pajty. he arrived in' Port
land early in the day. made a tour of
the business section and witnessed a
military and civic parade.

eyed in an ai*le this afternoon as Jack Dempsey, hea\yweighl champion
of the world, chased Tom Jiibbons, his challenger, ’round and ’rpund for
15 long rounds under a blislering Montana sun.
Perhaps the child thought it was some strange new game being playe<

was a game you might call “coyote and greyhound’’ for want of a bettei

“Gamest I Ever Met,”
Champ Says of Gibbons
By IniTmai terfkf.
Shelby. Mont., July 4—"I've never
fought a gamer or tougher man than
Tommy Gibbons. I punished him
around the head and body in the
clinches as I've never punished any
one before. I hit him solid smashes
on the aw and on the body—but
Tommy held to his feet and fought
on. said Jack Dempsey, after he suc
■ >-ssfuily defended his title here today.
"My only regret is that Tommy
wouldn't mix it more in the last five
or six rounds I wanted to slug It
with him and put my present day
punch to a real test. Rut Tommy
used hi* ring intelligence and just ran
from one clinch into another. And
when he wasn't doing that he w as
footing it around.
"They used to say he was a smart
fighter. I'll add my testimonial to
that. And I want to say that in addi
tion to being smart. Tommy is game
and courageous, and certainly one of
the tough- st men to hit with a solid
blow that I've ever fought."
Wants Another Chance
Tommy Gibbons said:
"JAdt Dempsey s greater physical
strength, coupled with his greater
wrestling ability, beat me this after
noon.
"I went Into the thing thinking
that it was to be a match under
Marquis of Queensbury rules, hut I
wasn't in there very long bef-.re I
cot the idea that it was a Graeco
Roman. or catch as catch-can. For
Dempsey, every time we fell into a
clinch, roughed it to the limit, twisted
and turned me and did about every
thing hut flop me on the floor.
"Dempsey may lie the great hitter
that his boosters claim, but lie didn't
Impress me this afternoon And this
great marksmanship they talk about
—well, it wasn't so conspicuous
Dempsey did hit me solid elow« on
the chin and also on the body—but he
nevei even staggered me
"I'd like another shot at him. with
wrestl.nc tdles more or 1 -s barred.
1 learned enough about Dempsey and
lus style of fighting this afternoon to
make ms certain that I can whip
him."
