KEEN FIGHT AT WHITE CITY

London, June 4.

Jack Petersen, idol of the Lon- don ring, regained his British heavyweight championship title at the White City to-night, win. ning by a technical knock-out from Len Harvey.

The British Empire title which Harvey won from Larry Gains was also at stake, Petersen now being the holder of both.

Harvey put up a wonderful fight but he was badly punished in the closing stages and was compelled to retire at the end of the twelfth round of a fifteen rounds contest.

JOHNSON "DEFAULTER" ACT CITED

NO REPUDIATION

Washington, June 4. Britain does not propose to make any payment to the United States on account of War

Debt on June 15. This is made clear in the British Government's reply to the American "Account Rendered" Note, which is expect- ed to be presented by Sir Ronald Lindsay in Washington this evening.

The Note says that Britain finds it necessary not to pay anything in June, and to suspend all further pay- ments until it becomes possible to discuss the ulti- mate settlement of inter-governmental war debts with a reasonable prospect to agreement." No intention of repudiation exists. Britain is ready for further discussion when President Roosevelt be- lieves that valuable results are likely. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Neville Chamber

lain will make a full statement on British policy in the House of Commons to-morrow (Tuesday) after- noon, and the correspondence which has passed between the two governments in the last few days will be published simultaneously in Britain and America.
