CHAMP DROPS
CONTENDER IN
SECOND ROUND

LOS ANGELES, Nov. IS. Up)-
Freddie Steele, world middleweight
boxing champion. snapped lethal
punches with both hands last night
to technically knock out tow-head-
ed Gus LeSnevitch of Hackensack,
N. j., in the second round of a
scheduled 10-round overweight bout.
The Tacoma, Wash, titleholder
brought 10,40O spectators to their
feet at Olympic auditorium when he
dropped Lesnevitch three times
opening two severe eye gashes-be-
fore his opponents handlers threw
in the towel after four minutes and
45 seconds of fighting.
Steele floored Lesnevitch-never
off his feet in four years of fight
ing-before the round was a minute
old. after opening the Russians
right eye with a cut that showered
his head and shoulders with blood.
A straight left nailed Lesnevitch as
he led, and he took nine count on
his knee.
The Hackensack boxer bounded
back and shot over two leftS that
staggered Steele, but the champion
shook his head and dropped the
Russian again, without a count.
Lesnevitch connected with another
solid punch on Steele's chin before
the round ended.
In the second round Steele wasted
no time, but marked Lesnevitch's
good eye. Another straight punch
this time right cross-dropped
Lesnevitch for nine again. Shortly
after, although the Russian was not
IN obvious danger, his face was COW
cred with blood and the towel came
sailing in.
Lesnevitch, 1853, outweighed the
champion by five pounds. He was
frankly disappointed with his eff
fort, and in the dressing room con-
tended he was not hurt but could
not continue with both eyes shut.

agitators in Austria is given and
freedom of Austrian Nazi now in
termed in Germany is permitted.
In sealing the Austro-German
agreement Chancellor Kurt Schus-
chnigg of Austria wired a mes
sage of congratulations to Chancel-
lor Hitler expressing his conviction
that the agreement would be to
the advantage of the whole Ger
man people" In replying Hitler
expressed the wish that this
agreement will re-establish the old
traditional relations springing from
racial unity and the centuries long
common history of the two peo-
pies. 1t is understood that both
Hitler and Schuschnigg will meet
in the near future, probably at Hit
ler's summer home at Berchtesga-
den.
In diplomatic circles the signing
of the new pact was regarded as
another shrewd coup by Chancel-
lor Hitler and Premier MuSsolini.
The German and Italian dictators
have thrust a dictatorially gov-
erned Fascist and Nazi wedge
through central Europe from the
North Sea to the Mediterranean.
In Paris, French officials were
quoted as seeing in the new agree
ment an initial step toward Ger
man annexation of the Austrian
republic without resorting to war.

New Austro- German Pact
Makes Diplomatic History

a NEW era in European diplo-
L n macy was heralded with the
signing of a treaty between Ger
many and Austria, establishing
peace and normal relations be-
tween the two nations.
Since Italy has been acting in
the role of big brother to Austria
in the past two years it was re-
garded as a virtual certainty that
Premier Mussolini had sanctioned
the new pact. Observers pointed
out that with Germany, Austria
and Italy in accord and with Po-
land friendly to Hitler's aims, Eu-
rope now has prospective alli-
ance more powerful than the triple
alliance of Germany, Italy and Au-
stria.Hungary preceding the World
war.
" By the terms OF the new Austro-
German pact, the sovereignty of
Austria is guaranteed, a friendly
attitude by Austria toward Ger
many is promised, amnesty to Nazi

Terms of Senators
and Representative

Representatives are elected for
two years by the direct popular
vote in November of even years.
Each house is a new body, al
though many representatives are
reelected. Under the Goth
Amendment to the Constitution
congress meets each year, be-
ginning January 8. Thus there is
a new house in January of the
odd-numbered years.
This procedure differs from the
Senate, in which the terms are so
arranged that one-third of the
senators are new every two
years, making it a continuous
body in that the terms are for
six years.-Washington Post.

reciprocal treaties, conservation of
farm population, government aid in
marketing surplus crops, centraliz-
ing of federal power and reduction
of federal expenditures with Gov
Eandon. Mr.. Lowden declared:
1--WE are in accord on the impor-
tant agricultural issues. 1 shall
support him and campaign for his
election"
Payment of cash federal boun-
ties to soil conserving farmers
through plan contemplating state
administration was one of the farm
principles advocated by Mr.. Low
den which received the verbal sup
port of Gov. Landon following the
conference.
With the Republican presidential
nominee at work on his acceptance
speech, conferences with other
leaders were scheduled. Important
among these was the visit of
George NJ Peek, former AAA ad-
ministrator who resigned his post
following a break with Secretary
Of Agriculture Wallace and is now
a New Deal critic. Also on the
program was the visit of Col.
Frank Knox, Governor Landon's
running mate.
At Governor Landon's office a
letter was made public from Will
liam Cabell Bruce, former Demo
cratic senator from Maryland, say
ing that he was bitterly disap-
pointed" in President Roosevelt
and deeply gratiied" at Governor
Landon'S nomination.
In the meantime members of the
Kansas legislature had departed
for their homes after submitting
two constitutional amendments to
the. states electorate. One of
these would authorize state aid for
the needy and the other would ap-
prove state participation in the fed
eral social security plan. Both
amendments were recommended
by Governor Landon.

DR.. S. Parkes Cadman
Is Taken by Death

HR. S. Parkes Cadman, who rose
~ from the mines of England to
international fame as a pulpit ora
tor, died in Plattsburg, N. Y, at
the age of seventy-one.
DR.. Cadman was pastor of the
Central Congregational church of
Brooklyn and was a former presi-
dent of the Federal Council of

enteen he joined the church and at
eighteen preached his first sermon.
He came to America in 1890 with
less than $100 in his pocket.
Through a bishop whom he had met
in London he obtained his first pas
torate
In his later years, DR.. Cadman
had for his congregation all the
people of the North American conti-
nent. He was the first of the IRA
dio pastors" and his Sunday after
noon sermons reached the ears of
millions.
His eloquence as a preacher
brought him a steadily growing
fame. Peace and temperance were
the keystones of his philosophy, al
though he expressed his views
freely on politics, civic affairs, lit
erature and crime as well as reli-
gious affairs. His last public ad-
dress dealt with THE World at

Uncle Phil =
Says: AA
lis Pleasant TO Foroet

How pleasant to wake up in the
morning and not be able to re-
member what it was that worried
you the evening before.
Promises that are the hardest
to obtain are the surest of full
fillment.
Life is a grind, but it doesn't
always make things smooth.
Despair Often Close
Few know the thin partitions
that separate their fellow men
from despair.
If you're going to be lonesome
anyway, why not climb to the top
of the ladder of fame?
Life is but a fieeting show-yet
it is the best show man has on
earth.
Don't use your common sense
so much to take your friends to
task. Be thankful that they like
you.
Leave Worker Alone
A man who does his work best
is the one who does it his own
way. Be satisfied and say moth
ing.
Saddest change in our old
friend, when afluence and honors
are heaped upon him, is that he
grows more ELUSIVE than ever to
us and thinks about us far less
frequently.
