tracts, the pugilists will not receive the
sums stipulated In their arrangements

satisfied with the contests.
While boxing is still far from tho es-
tablished institution In Buenos Aires.
the city authorities have certain ideas
regarding the conduct of the sport. one
Of which is that tho pugilists must give
the SPECTATORS their moneys worth. As
a result the principals are never paid
until those who purchased tickets have
signifled that they are satisfied with the
exhibition. This has been made clear to
the boxers who will shortly start for

vON BUELOW TELLS
GERMAN PEACE AIMS
Says That Re-estabhshment Of
Pre-War Conditions will Not
Suffice.

BERLIN. July 3.-Prince Won Buelow,
former German chancellor. asserts that
Germany must have something more
than pre-war conditions when peace is
declared. in a preface Of his book. Ger
man Policies" which has just been is
sued. The former chancellor maintains
that the re-esa blishmcnt OF national
lines as they existed prior to the war
would mean a loss to Germany.
In the preface to his book Won Bue-
low discusses Germanv's future and the
FORM that q peace treaty must take to
conform with German aspirations. de-
claring that Germany will have to
reckon after the war. with the bitter
hatred OF France. England. and Russia.
He continues:
Must Dictate Form.
This fact must dictate the form
ton which Germany viii and against
renewed and new lust for revenge In
the west and east and across the Chan.
mel can only be In Its own increased
strengthen araments on land and water.
and we for our part must meet this con-
dition. We must make ourselves
stronger and harder to he attacked on
our borders and coasts then we were at
sake OF striving for world supremacy.
with which we have been falsely charged
but In order to maintain ourselves against
our foes.
The result Of the war must not be
negative. but positive. II is not a ques-
ton of saving ourselves from being de-
stroyed. weakened, dismembered or
plundered. We must gain real securities
and guarantees. both as n recompense
for the unheard OF trials and sufferings
we have endured and as a security for
the future.
I'm face OF the feelings against us
which this war will leave the simple re-
establishment of the status quo ante
bellum for Germany would mean a loss
and not gain. We shall not be able
to say with a good conscience that our
general situation has been bettered by
the war unless the strengthening OF our
political. economic and military power
considerably outweighs the enmities en-
gendered by the conflict
Prince Won Beulow maintains that II
is important TO retain. restore and
strengthen connections with those states
with which Germany did not cross
swords. irrespective Of whether the
propaganda OF the enemy press and
| enemy agitators influenced the feelings
of the people against us during the war
Here political necessities must disregard
national likes and dislikes even though
they be justified"
The Socialists come In for a good wore
from Won Buelow and he expresses the
belief that the cooperation between
them and the government will be easier
after the war.
