AMATEURS CROWD
TWO GARDEN RINGS
Double Program Arranged in
Emergency to Handle
UnWiedy Field.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
n IEW YORK, May 5.-The forty
N fifth annual Amateur Athletic
v Union boxing championships
turned into a two-ring circus
today as officials struggled to weed out
the remainder of the $50 youngsters
seeking national title and places in the
Olympic try-outs in San Francisco.
The first night of the three-day meet
cleared only 81 of the ambitious crew
out from under the feet of Wild-eyed
officials and took until am so some
thing drastic had, to be done about the
quota of So on the card for today. The
officials set up two rings in the big
hall of Madison Square Garden for the
purpose of heaving fighters into both as
fast as possible all day and all night,
starting at noon.
TONIGHT, if any are awake, there
l. will be 80 survivors, ready for the
semi-finals and finals Friday night.
Only once before in the history OF the
championships has it been found neces-
sary to use two rings to whip such a
large field into manageable condition.
In 1920 the officials used up three rings
on two different floors in old Madison
Square Garden and some of the old
timers still don't know who won what
that year.
With only six knockouts developing
from all the miscellaneous warning last
night, three of them in the middle
weight class alone, the faithful looked
today to the heavyweights for excite
ment. The big fellows were under wraps
last night. Only two bouts We're staged
in that class and there were no knock
outs.
TODAY, however, the officials trotted
l. out all the very best punchers,
John Kilcullen, the Yale tackle,
paired with Joe Klein of Indiana, KY;
Joe UzdavinUs, Boston dental student,
matched with Jack Daniels of Kansas
City, and Stanglows Slater, big Negro
from the University of Michigan. and
Jack Moran of Philadelphia. One of
these, the railbirds insist, is the new
national heavyweight champion to be,
although there are half a dozen other
big fellows in the bracket
The lcne defending champion, Eddie
Flynn of New Orleans, injected a mega
tive stimulus to the action last night by
nearly losing his bout and title in a
close bout with Nate Crystal. Flynn
scored two knockdowns in the second
round, but was erratic the remainder of
the time.

CANDIDATE IS
EASY VICTOR
Robert Rice Reynolds Wins
Over Dry Opponent in
North Carolina.

DW GNlff0 Press
RALEIGH, N. c., July 4.-Riding
on the wave of a wet landslide,
young Robert Rice Reynolds, Ashe-
vile attorney, self-styied peoples
man." has won the Democratic
nomination for United States SEN
ator from white haired Senator
Cameron M. Morrison, dry former
Governor.
The colorful Reynolds, tall, hand
some and blond, triumphed by more
than 100000 majority over Morrison
in Saturdays run-oh primary.
Likewise, another new political
figure was carved in the state, as
John G. B. Ehringhaus, Elizabeth

BILE lead over plump Lieutenant
Governor Richard Tillman Fountain
for the nomination for Governor.
The run-off primary made po-
litical history in North Carolina,
where all good Democrats take
their politics straight, and in big
doses.
Morrison's defeat marks the pass
ing of the last of the "old guard,
that now defunct political machine
OF former Senator Furnifold M
Simmons, car of Democracy in the
state for thirty years, who went
down to defeat in 1880 before the
younger Josiah William Bailey.

travelled by automobile and special
train to the graveside to join in the
tribute to the apostle of peace.
Above the grave was placed a
simple slab of blue Breton granite
on which the words "Aristide
BRAND" were inscribed, and over it
was laid the tri-color Of France.
Then came the members of
Brands family to place wreaths,
and after them the peasants of the
countryside, most of them leading
children by the hands.
Premier Herriot's speech was a
brilliant tribute to BRAND. The
premier first knelt by the tomb, and
then mounted the tribune to speak.
Il have never better appreciated
the value of your counsels, the ex-
ample of your life, than in the pres
ent hour during negotiations which
I hope will contribute to the pacifca-
ton of Europe and the world" Her

ACCUSE YOUTH
OF EMBEzzLING
BOOkkeeper Alleged of Theft
of 1899 From Firm.

Francis Hunter, %, of 615O In
dianola avenue, was under arrest
today on vagrancy charges fol-
lowing an alleged confession to po-
lice that he embezzled 1899 from
the Polar Ice and Fuel Company
where he formerly was employed as
bookkeeper.
Alleged populations of Hunter
were discovered early in June, and
he was discharged at that time,
according to Henry L. Dithmer ST.,
president.
Company officials said audit of
the altered records is expected to
reveal the loss to be more than
SIS, 900.
Hunter is alleged to have admit
ted taking amounts ranging from
$40 to $130 daily from funds sent in
from Substations and to have al
tered books to cover up the short
age.
Part of the money was spent as
down payment on home, improve
mentS to the property and payments
on automobiles, and the remainder
was disSipated in gambling and or
women and liquor, the youth is al
legged to have admitted.
Hunters wife told Sergeant Edwin
Kruse, who made the arrest, that
her husband lost hevily in poker
games and slot machines.
Police said they learned Hunter
deposited $1,000 in bank after his
discharge.

money is in demand and foreign
agents are prepared to make
tempting offers to the right people.
A SPY seldom plays a lone
IA hand. Almost invariably
he depends upon one or more of
the nationals OF the country
whose secrets he is trying to learn.
His cleverness lies in making
the proper contacts and in cover
ing up his tracks as he carries on
his job.
In the case of Mime. Majewska,
the Polish Mata Hari, she was
caught red handed trying to cross
the frontier between the Polish
corridor and the free city Of
Dantzig. In her care were found
"the papers"
The Russians long had seemed
to possess a positively unerring
faculty Of discovering Polish spies
operating in their country, and
one by one the Poles were. stood
up and shot.
How did the Russians do it?
Nine. Majewska and her confede-
rates were tipping them off.
Nine. de Littke, also dancer
and beauty, it is said, helped
Warsaw track down Majewska.
Then she was sent to Budapest
on another mission. Caught by
the Hungarians, who it is be-
1ieved, had been tipped off by their
own spies in Poland, she smilingly
asked her fate.

was. according to the Chinese,
merely a dangerous spy masque-
rading under the guise OF a
harmless scholar" engaged in
the study of geography. When
shot, the Chinese claim, he had a
full set Of carefully checked war
maps of the whole region.
Japan, Russia, Great Britain,
Italy, Germany and all the prin-
cipal powers of the world, in
Guiding the United States, are
engaged in espionage and coun~
ter-espionage, even though it
sometimes goes under another
name.
The United States abolished its
cryptical bureau here three years
ago, doing away with the practice
of prying into the secrets of for
eign governments.
But there is every reason to be-
lieve that other countries are not
SO scrupulous about the secrets Of
Uncle Sam.
The reason for the deluge of
international spying, it is said, is
the prevalent wave of fear and
distrust. Nations are afraid of
war-afraid Of being attacked
and are trying to be forearmed by
being forewarned.
Spying, too, is said to be easier
now than in normal times. There
is much unemployment; salary
cuts are common. Military and
civilian officers have been laid of
in the name of economy. Ready

BERLIN REJECTS
NEW DEAL ON

Powers Agreement Held
Unsatisfactory to Chiefs

By United Press

By United Press
LAUSANNE, July 4.-Germany
virtually had rejected today the
PREPARATIONS conference project, I'M
animously devised by Great Britain,
France, Italy, Belgium and Japan
in the hope that it would make
possible a final solution of Europe S
economic problems.
The German objection to the ten
tative agreement was revealed after
German Chancellor Franz Won
Papen met in conference with the
British prime minister, j. Ramsay
Macdonald to discuss the plan.
1t was reported that the German
delegation did not consider the pro-
posed solution a definite and final
solution"
The German protest was under
stood to hinge upon three main
points of the plan.
l. The total of 4,200,000,000 marks
(about $1,0OO,O0O,OOO) which it was
proposed the reich should pay into
European reconstruction fund in
lieu of reparations.
2. The new form of the so-called
safeguarding clause" which loose
ly would bind Germany to pay more
if Europes war debts to the United
States are not readjusted.
3. The conditions under which the
payment to the reconstruction fund
would be due on the revival of eco

No use calling on her own peo-
pie for help. Governments ex-
pect their spies to shift for them
selves in such circumstances, and
the dancer knew her rules.
NINE. DE LITTKE was given
IVA the choice of spying for Hun
gary or facing prison or possible
death. There was a dangerous
leak in the war office and free
dom was offered the woman if
she would undertake to locate it.
She took the job.
After a time, Nine. de Littke
met a certain Capt. de Rutkay of
the Hungarian general staff. He
fell desperately in love with her,
movie-fashion, and turned out to
be the man she was looking for.
The general staff gave the trail
tor twenty-four hours in which to
commit suicide, failing which he
would be court-martialed and
shot.
At last, dramatic meeting in
a boudoir, the captain fired two
shots at his sweetheart and, miss
ing, turned his service revolver
on himself.
These just are samples. 1t is
admitted in diplomatic circles that
spying before the World war was
tame compared with what is 60
ing on today, as an uneasy, sus-
picious world feverishly attempts
to find out who is plotting, and
what, against it.

OKLAHOMA CITY, July A
woman forger, who turned to rob-

from an Ohio penitentiary, was near
death today from gunshot wounds
received in a battle with police.
Mrs. Edwin Smith was shot and
wounded probably fatally by officers
when she, her young husband and
his brother tried to resist arrest
Police said they had just robbed a
grocery store of about $75.
Mrs. Smith, serving a fifteen
year term in the Russellville (O)
prison for forgery, made a success
full break for freedom last Wednes-
day.
AS her husband drove past the
prison courtyard she made a dash
for his automobile and fled.
Smith and his brother. both about
rs years old, were arrested. They
confessed to the robbery, the po
lice said.
