Hence. ] believe that, war or

a far greater defense program than
that now contemplated: while an al
lied victory should mean billions of
dollars for reconstruction. To the en-
tent that the world continues its cX-
pcnditureS for luXuries, style goods
and amuScmcnts, these armament
and reconstruction costs will result
in an exhaustion Of capital and world
wealth. Then Il lower standard Of liV-

Boxing Racket Is Discussed by One Who Lives

By DILLON GRAHAM

Spcrts Editor, AP Feature Service
 NEW YORK, Feb. l9-I am toy ing with the idea of entering the boxing racket. On the safe side. That is, as a manager. I never was any great shakes with my dukes.
 Money has always fascinated me. And Lew Diamond, the honest brakeman, tells me the softest mon- ey in the world is in boxing. A sweet and simple profession.
 Say" said Lew, pushing a pudgy forefinger dangerously near my schnozzle, can you tell me any other bizness in which a guy can go with empty hands and make maybe two hunert gees in year?"
 Lew had me there.
 Fighters All You Need
 Ali you need" explained Lew, letting me on the secret in a very confidential manner, lis fighter" !"
 Just find yo-self fighter" he said. If he stands up you got someone to support you for years. If he goes down, whot have you lost? Nothing but yo' time and that ain't worth much. You jest get yo'self another fighter"
 MT. Diamond is large person. Tn the neighborhood of 250 pounds. His weight is distributed in the places where it shows off most.
 T guess" Lew estimated, rapidly scanning his quarter-century in the profession, i've gone through two or three hunert tousand' He is very happy that he forsook the drab, routine business of railroad braking. T wouldn't have lived off the fat of the land from braking, he philosophical.
 Plenty of Battlers
 Lew has had flock of fighters. And one champion, Johnny Buff, the flyweig h and bantamweight king of 20 years ago At the mot ment he is taking his case and fid- ding around in the promoting end of the business. His regular stand is Baltimore. But he is handling the Billy Conn-G Gus Lesnevich light heavyweight championship go in Miami February 28
 But" I asked, sorely tempted but realizing my inexperience, does mt manager have to know some thing about the finer points of the pugilistic art?"
 "Ha, ha,' laughed Lew He is very good laugher. One of those fellows who shakes all over and rum bles.
 Course not he said "aint the gymnasium full Of old fighters who will teach your kid for a few bucks a day?

Skating Vies with
 Skiing Yesterday

Although good skating called many skiers to Aux Lake yesterday, over forty of the skiing tribe found their way above timberline on Douglas Island. The group was equally divid- ed between the upper section of the CrookeS Trail and the Douglas Ski Cabin.
 The best skiing of the year was found in the bowl above the ski cabin with four inches of crisp dry snow on an unbreakable crust. The snow that had fallen during the past two weeks made the upper section of the Douglas Trail bit more navigable, although it is still neces- sary to run with caution.

S. Nations Sounded Out
By j.. ). on Disarmament

Secretary of State Hull said today
the United States had sounded out
approximately SIS other neutral ma
tions concerning development of a
disarmament and liberal trade pro-
gram for peaceful adjustment of
world affairs following eventual end
of the current wars.
Most of the nations approached
have replied favorably to the gen.
eral principle of the proposal, Mr..
Hull said. He added that no de-
tailed suggestion for definite pro-
gram had been discussed as yet.
Mr.. Hull announced last month
that conversations with some neu-
tral countries looking toward post
war adjustments were under way
and said at that time that the dis
cussions would be extended to in
clude any nation that showed any
disposition to be interested in them.
He emphasized that present war
conditions are not involved in the
discussions, which are going for
ward informally with foreign diplo-
matte representatives here, as well
as among other foreign officers and
American representatives abroad.

Britons Demanding
Retaliation for
German Raids
Scorn Is Voiced for
Pamphlet Dropping
Expeditions
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 8.-Day and
night German air raids on shipping
reused Britons today to demand re-
taliation while the treasury issued a
f700.00o,000 (about $4,000 900 ,000)
vote of credit as a sort of blank
check for the coming years war
expenses.
The air ministry announced that
new reconnaissance flights were
made last night over Germany and
for the first time over former Polish
territory, but some parliamentary
| figures and the press voiced scorn
for such pamphlet-dropping excur-
sions.
The flight over Poland was part
of reconnaissance and patrol op-
erations lover wide areas of enemy
territory" in the course of the night.
1t was the third consecutive night
of such flights.
R. A. F. bombers were reported
to have landed in France after
dropping propaganda leaflets over
Western Poland. It was said that
only one plane was fired upon, al
though searchlights were en-
countered.
Among the points in Germany
proper said to have been secuted
were Leipzig and a naval dockyard
at Stettin.
There was no official comment
on the German news agency report
that German planes had sunk or
severely damaged II merchantmen
off the British coasts last night and
Wednesday night.
A German bomber was shot down
off North Scotland today, the Air
Ministry announced late in the aft
ernoon, the second raider to be
downed off Scotland in two days.
Outer Dousing lightship reported
that it was attacked by Nazi planes
yesterday. -Four fishermen, suffering
from machine-gun bullet wounds,
reached an east coast port from the
fishing boats Donaldo Resmilo and
Warren.
A secret appropriation of an un-
precedented size for the R. A. F.
was approved last night without
record vote by Commons. The
amount was shielded by the token
figure of f1O0-s400.
The latest casualty in the aerial
warfare at sea was the 5,335-ton
Italian steamer Amelia Lauro,
bombed and set afire off the south
east coast last night. Another Ital-
ian ship, the Titania, answered the
Amelia Lauro's sos and early today
% men, of them wounded, were
brought ashore. q
Three trawlers making east coast
ports reported that they had been
machine-gunned by German planes
last night until they extinguished
all lights and escaped.
The three vessels-the Aucuba,
Emulator and Persian Empire-an
had been attacked by Nazi flyers
previously.
Discovery Of wreckage from the
1,965-ton Netherlands steamer Vecht
off the coast of iceland led her
owners to believe that the ship
which sailed for North America yes
terday had been sunk by mine, tor
pedo or aerial bomb, a dispatch
from Rotterdam, the Netherlands,
said. She carried crew of %.
