Chicago. April 23.-Jess Willard,
heavyweight champion, who is here
for a two weeks stay. came to town
on the train with ten Chicago Cubs
who returned from their training trip
in California. The champion is taxi

After he has put in his time here he

for his fight with Jack Dempsey,
which the champion asserts Is to

willard has not been idling away
his time since he agreed to fight
Dempsey. He is in training, and a

looks the part. When seen in Chi
cage a month or so, agoi he was fat
and flabby looking around he owls,
but that appearance has left him
entirely. He is beginning to show
the effects of his work and there UNI
doubtedly Is determination in him to
get in the best of shape possible for
Dempsey.

me to jump into vigorous training
after being out Of the game for two
OF three years." continued Willard.

going to take all the time I "a to
get ready. I fought johnson weigh

that low for Dempsey. My weight
was 259 in the Moran contest. That

nasium is the best place to get that"
Willard will start his hard training
at Excelsior Springs, Mo-. and has en-
. gagged eight sparring partners to work
with him.

Swedish Socialist.
Issues A Warning
- Against Bolshevism

Paris, April 23.-Hjalmar Branting.
the Swedish Socialist leader. in an adj
dress to the Socialist congress today
asked the French Socialists to take
into consideration the results Of the
Bolshevik system of government in
Russia. He issued a warning against
Bolshevism because in the Bolshevik
regime there is nc progression. The
Soviet government meant absolute
economic decomposition, misery n
famine.
In the Bolshevik system, NJ. Brant-
ing said, there is neither the image Of
Socialism nor it's triumph; it is the
negation Of Socialism. The dictator
ship Of the proletariat is only a Carl
cture and is not q characteristic OF
socialism. The development Of de-
mocracy. he added, should be the
spirit Of socialism. ?

LEAGUE OF COMPLICATIONS
WILLIAM K. HEARSTS NAME
FOR LEAGUE OF MA TONS

william Randolph Hearst. the own
er of more newspapers than any other
man in the United States, was visitor
in Albuquerque for an hour last night.
Mr.. Hearst may not be as young as
he was a generation ago-he was born
In 1S63-but he still retains the ath-
letic figure, the clear blue eye and the
tawny hair of youth. Only the lines
in his face show the inevitable APP
proach of age.
When seen by reporter last night
he was busily engaged selecting some
Navajo blankets in the Harvey curto
room, but he readily allowed himself
to be drawn into conversation and ex-
pressed his views with his usual clear
ness and precision.
Asked his opinion of the league of
nations. Mr.. Hearst said:
Il am unalterably opposed to it. To
me it seems more like a league of
complications. The United States has
lived for nearly $50 years without out
side interference and has prospered
wonderfully in that time. We do not
want a league OF nations any more
than man of vigorous, sturdy health
wants a physician.
ut might become necessary again
for us to enter a European war. but
there is no good reason why we should
deliberately put ourselves where wS
shall have to take part in every broil
in Europe, and that is what the league
would have us do"
Referring TO the speaking tours of
President Wilson and Senators john
son and Borah, Mr.. Hearst said.
"The fact that crowds at the john
SON -Borah meetings are larger and
more enthusiastic than those of the
lpresident is an indication that the
senators are speaking the minds of the
majority.
Il would hate to think that he had
such idea" was Mr.. eHearst's reply to
the question as to whether he thought
the president had a third term in
view. THAT is another thing to which
J am opposed. washington and Jeffer-
son were wise in their time and they

Washington, Sept. 15,--Statements
issued by the League or Free Nations

Admission that he received his in
formation as to conditions in Mexico
from Weeks was make by Debekker
in the course of a sharp cross -eXami-

Brandegee of the subcommittee, The
same cross-examination brought out
that Debekker based his charges of an

Debekker defended the Carranza
government in his testimony and said
that he believed Carranza was giving
Mexico a better government than the
United States could He also asserted
that worse things had happened in the
United States than had occurred in
Mexico. Later cross examination
brought from his that outside of in

knowledge of Mexican conditions was
obtained last spring during a six
weeks visit. four weeks of which were
spent i'm Mexico City and the other
two in travelling about the country as
