Armory Boxers
On December 80
Card WeI-Known

A string OF well-known boxers,
picked from the few who can put
up a good scrap In the squared
circle, are on the boxing card OF
the smoker to be held tomorrow
night in the armory.
Speculation over the outcome OF
the main event between Battling
Syverson of Salem and Carl Miller
OF Eugene leaves the fans In doubt
-as to the winner. Both are clev-
er well-seasoned mittmen and
should put up a bout that VIII
satisfy the most critical critic of
the ringside. Both men are even
ly matched, topping the scales at
1876 pounds.
Jack DAILY of Great Falls. Mon
tana, will meet Dan Healy Of ga
lem in place Of Joe Bittles Of Che
mawa, who has acquired bad
thumb during the week and is un-
able to fight. Healy is the north
west amateur champion for ]18
Founders and ought to give his OPP
ponent good run for first money.
Kid Kream of Chemawa is
scheduled to meet Buck Smith, an
overseas boxer of reputation, in a
six-round go. Both are able to
stand good deal of punishment
and have weight enough behind
their punches to make it look in
teresting.
Nobody has as yet been found to
match up with "Fatty" Phil
Bayes. 1t is thought, however
that Coates, from Dallas, can be
persuaded to enter the ring as his
oponent.
The Fox brothers, miniature
amateur fighters of Dallas, will
put on an exhibition for points
while another preliminary is be
ing planned if the management
can get the boxers to agree.

The charges against the gov

Mr.. Curtis centered around alleged
illegal practices during the term

Lieutenant Governor Sterling as
state treasurer 1919-1921. The
allegel illegal operations accord

money aggregating $4,000, 900
which was then loaned to Swift &
company and Armour & company,
Chicago packers, on notes paying
to per cent interest. Not more
than 2 per cent of this interest
was paid to the state, the grand
jury claimed and the defendants
are charged with retaining the re-
mainder.

TOFORCE GERMANY
TO PEACE TERMS
Allied Military Chiefs Confer on
Eve Of Conference.
OUTLINE STERN MEASURES
Occupation of Dortmund and Even
Munich Possible, With Blockade of
Hamburg.

London. Feb 2S-On the virtual
eve of the allied conference with the
Germans. ON the raparationS and dis
armament questions, the two principal
allied military chiefs. Marshal Foch
of France, and Field Marshal Sir Hen
ry Hughes Wilson, British chief Of
staff, spent the weekend by Invitation
with Lloyd George and Premier Bri,
and of France. in Seclu>i0n at Che
querS Court, the lew country home of
the prime ministers of England
The purpose of the consultation was
to reduce to definite form the Various
proposals for the application -: nili-
tary and economic pressure sufficient
70 change the mind of Germany should
her government refuse the rci,lrl1ionS
terms Of the allies.
This subject has been medi}ateh up,
British general stats, ana c>..r..ially
in Paris, for several months past. and
the present was by no means the first
exchange of views between the tive
military chieftains as to what action
could be taken. and effectively continu,
ed for months or even years, to com.
pei Germany to meet what are cOnSid
cred her obligations.
While one object of the conference
is dramatic warning to Germany that
the invasion of some parts of her ter.
ritOry may follow Il refusal of com
pliance on her part, another is that
the French government, which would
have to supply most of the troops, de
SireS to be in a position to act sud
denly should the moment requiring ac
ton arrive
The general plan considered, of which
many collateral features require eX,
animation, is understood to provide
for nOrthWard movement by the Bel
gian troops, which would occupy bort
mund, while the French would re0ccu
by Frankfort and penetrate the coun'
try beyond to a considerable depth
possibly as far as Munich, While q
fleet would blockade the port of Ham
burg. The declared object of these
movements would be to enforce the
military clauses of the treaty and Sc
cure the disarmament of the Ravarian

The action taken would thus he
based. not upon disputed economic de
mands, but upon violated armament
sections of the treaty. In these circum
stances, the allies, it is pointed out
would not have to wait until May

inform Germany how much she must

Germany, under the treaty, may argue
her case before the separations com
mission. BY baSing their case upon
the disarmament demands they could
act Immediately under the authority
of the treaty, the sponsors of the plan
argue.
The German government has beer
notified that the principal points or
the program to be discussed at the
London conference during the coming
week will be disarmament, punishment
of war criminals and reparatiOns. Dis,
armament may be first taken up, and

chief of staff, and Il member of the
