tent of Russia's support for the
present at least would be limited to
purely political and economic
spheres.
Germany,s position for the mo-
ment, 1t was said, Is:
Germany urgently desires, in
cooperation with Russia and other
friendly states including Italy, tc
induce Britain and France to call Oh
the war.
AShe holds that the allies need
feel no shame if they reconsider
now for the last time, whether there
Is to be peace or a finish fight.
9Poland Is dead and Germany
and Russia alone will say what shall
be done regarding the area that was
Poland.
Surprisingly, after the Russo Ger
man declaration at Moscow thai
there was no reason for continuing
the war, Nazis said that they in.
tended to do nothing more. They
said that with war going on Il
would be dificult to take any forma
direct step. Hence, presumably Bri.
tain and France were put in posi-.
ton where, If they desired to accep'
the peace overture, they would havt
to ask for peace-unless Mussolin
or some one else took the initiative
It was said authoritatively tha'
the new Russo German pact fixet
definitely the German and Russian
political and military spheres Of in.
fiuence from the Baltic to the Oar.
danelles.
The Nazis were somewhat vagu,
on details but indicated that Ger.
many had conceded he Balti,
sphere to Russia and that the Bal
kan sphere remained open as q join
area for trading and economic ex
ploitation for the present.
As regards Poland, Nazis said tina
there certainly would be no indie
pendent Polish buffer state Of an.
sort.
The Nazis professed the creates
confidence that German Russian
friendship would be of long dura
ton. They said that the years o
what they called coldness, were onl,
an episode, that the new set-up wa
the beginning Of an epoch.
1t was reported that Viachesla'
Molotov, Russian premier foreign
commissar might come here for tn
formal ratification Of the treaty.

PACE NEW CHAMPION

George Parham's No. 3 rating
among the states bantamweights
puts him nearly close enough to
touch a bit of national recognition.
1t may be any day now that you
will hear about George Pace fight
ing K. o. Morgan for the bantam
weight championship of the world.
The National Boxing association
scared Sixto Escobar right off the
throne when they commanded him
to fight Cleveland, Ohio's Pace or
they would declare his position
vacant.
Escohar formally relinquished- his
title to go cunning for Joe Archi-
bald's featherweight crown. NoW.
that the National Boxing association
is all together on George Pace as
the new bantamweight champion of
the world, many managers of the
standouts in that class are dis
satisfied.
Pace has already agreed to take
