"This was the year we had hoped to get all 50 states into the NBA," Maceroni said, "and we were and still are willing to change it to an international group to get world-wide participation." Maceroni made his comment at his home in Providence, R.I.

The NBA president also vigorously denied the California charge that his group has been lax. in combating hoodlum influence in boxing. "California misses the complete concept of the NBA," Maceroni declared. "The NBA has no policing power, never had it and must leave it to each individual state to handle its own investigations." He added that the majority of cases now pending against undesirable elements in boxing are still before the grand juries "and we cannot take action until there are convictions." In Los Angeles, Cal and Aileen Eaton, whose promotions have included several world title fights in recent years, said, "We'll have to wait and see if California stands alone or joins another national boxing group."

Greene said in Paterson, N.J "I regret to see California take this step because its po sition is comparable to the United States in the United Nations. This country may object to many things that are happening, but it suffers momentary discomfort for over-all good. "The best way to fight rack' ets is to face up to the situation. I sincerely hbpe Califor nia will reconsider and help in the campaign which it protests is lacking. United boxing can do it" Greene, editor of the Pater- con Evening News, who said he has not been close to the situation in recent months, praised California for its com mlssioners and its heavy box lng schedule "much of this fostered by the NBA" The chairman of the Miami Beach, Fla, boxing commission, F.
