All Of which would seem to sub stantiate the attitude of the New York state athletic commission that there is no such thing as incapaci- tation from low punch. The solemn solons allow the boys to pro- tsct themselves with anything but coats of mail, steel vests, and hoop skirts. The results have amazed the rabid critics who moaned loud and long that the commission was making a serious mistake and was making ridiculous one of the old- est and firmest established rules : the fight game.
 But just the same there have been no fouls in New York state for over year now and in all that time there have been only tive genuine claims of foul In one instance I saw the fouled battler, rise after protesting bitterly that he had been floored by Jimmy Slavin's low blows and then come On to win draw in fight he had been losing up to that time.

Trio of German Extremists Are United in Opposing Couernment by Decree; Leader of
 Communists Is Listed to Seek Presidency

BERLIN, Oct. Z8.-AQOU HlJleT head of the National Socialist or 'Nazi' movement; his right hand man, It. Col. Ernst Roehn, and Ernst Thaelmann, chairman of the Communist Party, by grace of the International Executive Committee in Moscow, form strange alliance in German politics.
 Their one thing in common is uncompromising hostility to von Hindenberg's emergency decrees.
 One general criticism of the Ma zis" is that their movement re- wolves around Hitler and would stand or fall with him. But Roehm, as leader of the storm troops" is second only to the meteoric Aus trian.
 As disciplined military man Roehm takes orders from his chief but he often advises him in a man ner anything but subordinate.
 The commander of the militant wing of the Fascists was chief mili- tary organizer of the 1923 beer cellar putsch" when Hitler and General Erich Ludendorff planned to march upon Berlin as Mussolini marched on Rome. After that Roehm went to Bolivia and organ ized an army there on Prussian lines. He came back to Germany on the invitation of Hitler when the September. 1880. elections witnessed the boosting of the Fascist cause.
 Not Playing Soldier
 T don't approve of the idea of playing at being soldiers" he ex- plained. What we are trying to do is teach German youth the dis cipline and obedience which we had in the good old days of the imperial army. Then when the dsy comes, they will carry out our orders.
 "Plebiscites are nonsense. The leaders must decide what kind of state Germany needs. Then it will be up to the storm troops to psychologists the masses so they will accept the change. The masses will follow. We need no ballot to ascertain their wishes"
 To suggestion that Fascism might prove merely a fore-runner of communism, he replied:
 Tt will work the otAer way round. am watching Communist meetings with great interest. Un- questioned idealism animates some of it's membership and we are drawing many of them into our camp"
 Thaelmann's followers say the process is being reversed. Once a "Nazi" becomes dissatisfied with his own party, he continues around
