Measure Passes Senate Amid Hope For Boxing Bill
Springfield June 2 After hope for passage in this session had faded the state senate advanced the Carroll boxing bill by 28 to 15 with a referendum clause delaying enforcement in municipalities until a vote. The measure legalizes ten round no decision bouts under a state athletic commission and allocates seven and a half percent of net receipts to the state. The bill moves to the house where a similar measure without the referendum had failed. Also up were home rule talks for public utilities with Chicago focus and a push to split primaries with a September general and April presidential primary. The house approved Potts as state insurance superintendent. other recess appointments remain held up.

German US note on Lusitania tensions fuels Berlin watch
Berlin officials and the public await American developments in the exchange of notes on Lusitania. German officials struggle to communicate with Washington as press reports drift between approval of a U S plan for investigation and accusations of unacceptable German demands. Reventlow and others attack US policy in editorials while Foreign Office seeks calm to avoid inflaming USGermany ties. The question of a secret US British Franco Russian pact is cited by critics. Wilson’s response remains anticipated as Germany tolerates cautious public commentary.

Wilson urges rapid unity to form new Mexican government
President Wilson called on all Mexican factions to unite quickly and establish a government worthy of recognition. He warned that failure to create a peaceful, provisional leadership could force the United States to decide on measures to save the southern republic from further internal warfare. The plan aims to restore constitutional rule after factions agree on a provisional president and cabinet, with U.S. support reserved for the most promising group and arms embargoes possible to aid peace efforts.
