men into idleness and caused the

Nazi-ism would not suit Soviet Russia.
A free Poland would be government by
peasants and workers.
It Is true 'Mussolini was present at
Munich at our invitation, but it was
clear that he was there to help Hitler.
The famous chortling photograph of the
two dictators shows that they had ar
rived at a thorough understanding of
the part Mussolini was to play in cajol-
ing the Western Premiers into surrender.
There is some evidence that II Duce Is
in different mood now.
There are three other elements which
did not exist then which would be con-
ducive to the success of a genuine con-
ference. The first is that Britain and
France have shown they are no longer
frightened of facing the terrible conse-
quences of war in a struggle to put an
end to the aggressions of Hitlerism. The
second is the Intervention of Russia.
The third is the possibility that the
United States of America might be in
duced to attend conference summoned

the boundaries of Poland and Czecho-
Slovakia. but the wider issue Of the

Hitler Outguesses

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
1t is generally accepted that Hitler
moved into the demilitarized Rhineland
four years ago in violation of the advice
OF his army executives. They thought
France would fight. They were wrong.
Hitler was right.
The same thing happened in Austria.
The generals were wrong again.
Even Field Marshal Hermann Wilhelm
Goering, No. 2 Nazi. was surprised and
dismayed at the sudden move last spring
into the rest Of Czecho- Slovakia. Marshal
Goering and the generals were wrong.
Nobody made fight about it.
Hitler was right again about the
speedy success Of the drive through Po-
land. Again, reports here indicate. some

Chancellor Hitler, in "Mein

I'VE must never forget that the
regents of present-day Russia are
common blood-stained criminals;
that here Is the scum of humanity,
which, favored by conditions in. a
tragic hour, overran a great state,
butchered and rooted out millions
of its leading tntellects with savage
bloodthirstiness. and for nearly 10
years has exercised the most fright
full regime of tyranny Of all time.
Nor must we forget that these rulers
belong to a nation which combines
rare mixture Of bestial horror
with an inconceivable gift of lying,
and today more than ever before
believes itself called upon to impose
its bloody oppression on the whole
world.
I'VE must not forget that the in

Russia absolutely, sees in Germany.

But one does not conclude a

Another face-to-face conversation be-
tween Hitler, Chamberlain and Daladier
would answer no useful purpose. Mu-
mich was a disastrous failure even with
the presence of Mussolini. 1t was not
q conference in any sense of the term.
There was an atmosphere of rush panic
about it which was fatal to deliberation.
Both the Western Premiers were fright
ened and intimidated by a scowling,
gesticulating dictator whose legions
waited his word to march into war.
The change which has taken place in
the position occupied by Russia has COM
pletely transformed the situation. Rus
sia was not present at the Munich talks
Hitler would have popped of with rage
had any one suggested that she should
be consulted. Chamberlain never wanted
her. Although France had signed pact
with her to defend Czecho-S -Slovakia, if
and when the latter was attacked, Dala-
dier was in the hands of the French
Right, who would have nothing to do
with Bolshevik government. That is
the origin of the present tragedy.
Now Russia is in, at the request of the
German government, and she could not
be excluded from the conference. France
and ourselves are not challenging her
conquests. Russia can therefore afford
to be impartial in her treatment OF the
true Poland, which is now occupied by
German troops. A puppet state which

Unc0nvinced

UncOnv1nced
 Still out of his mind, and with his face furrowed like a corn field with nasty cuts, Galento mumbled through horribly swollen lips that Louis was a bum and couldn't hit a lick. AS physicians put enough clamps on his wounds to hang out the Monday wash of family of five, Galento told them that Louis never really hit him, but that he just "Shoved me around" Later, wearing smart ice cap at a rakish angle and outfitted in the latest pastel shades of gauge and tape, Tony demanded return match.
 "The next time I'll knock the bum out. I just got careless, else I would have beat hell out of him this time, !" he said.
 I hate to utter a discordant note at this time of Galento'S greatest "triumph"-when the papers are dripping with columns of praise for him as fighter and a man. But isn't it time that Louis got little praise as a fighter? Isn't it time that we stop making heroes of men who last three, four or five rounds with him, and give the colored boy his due as tremendous hitter and fellow with fair amount of cour- age?
 It is getting so that the men Louis beat to pulp receive much more credit for not being killed out right than Louis does for rendering them helpless. If a man goes into the ring against Louis and shows enough courage to walk forth to meet him he is hailed as a Richard the lion-hearted. A resolute and stout fellow.
 New Standard
 It seems to have been forgotten that Louis still is man and not 8 machine. He eats, sleeps, slaves like all the men he fights. He has all the human foibles. His chin is not above being hurt, and his stom- ach will yield to a mighty blow. In a way, the praise that is heard of the men who last a few rounds with Louis is the highest form of tribute to the champion. His record is so tremendous, his hitting so devastat- ing, that he now is looked upon as a robot killer, and we have evolved an entirely new method of measur- ing challengers for the title. They have to do is to escape with their lives, show little courage, and make it last long enough to get all the customers seated.

PETERS, BROWER
 IN CYCLE RACE

Although unbeaten in four spe- cial sprints and regarded as his very best one the North Haven Speedway motorcycle oval, Kenny Brewer will be in the unfamiliar role of under dog on the weekly racing card to- night.
 Promoter Art Pechar has lined up Dick Peters, Brooklyn, N. Y., scratch rider, to face Brewer in the feature match and the Gothamite is con- sidered above Kenny in ranking by metropolitan experts.
 Thus far Brewer has met and conquered Ray Grant, Ed Koch, Bud Reda and Bill Normyle. The latter, who almost nipped Kenny last Fri- day, will again be on deck and has been matched against Fred Marsh of Hartford, like Brewer unbeaten in sprints, with three wins over Jack Parr.
 The delegation from New York and New Jersey will be larger than ever before this year and should produce torrid competition in the handcap and pro scratch events.
 The large field will compete in eighteen races with the first gstting under way at 8:30 after the time trials. fifteen minutes earlier.

Today's Sport Parade
By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan Correspondent)

New York, June 30 (UP) = Prophecy; the man who will finally defeat Joe Louis and succeed him as heavyweight champion of the world will be doctor.
 I feel certain of this because doc tors, more than any other class of people, are always getting first hand accounts of Joe's weaknesses and just what is needed to beat him.
 No sooner is one of Joe's victims readied for the operating table than he starts telling the consulting sur- geons, who are there to mend him, just what Louis lacks as a cham pion and how to capitalize it. Max Schmeling spoke above the rattling of his loose vertebrae to brand Louis as man who couldn't hit.
 Max Baer interrupted the hem stitching on his face to point out the champions flaws and how he could be taken. At the risk of hav- ing all his teeth fall on the floor, Jim Braddock rose from his bed of pain to tell the men of mercy who stood solemnly about that Louis was just a flash in the pan and wasn't here to stay.
 So did all the other Louis chal- lengers, the latest being Tony Ga- lento. At the risk of being torn apart by the protective" New York policemen who guarded his dressing room. I followed Galento into his Yankee Stadium retreat after he had been knocked out in four rounds by Louis.
