Boxing Is
Upheld By
'Sky Pilot'
Topeka, Kan., Mar. 23. The
Bible upholds boxing, according
to the Rev. Karl A. Blackman,
known" as the 'fighting Kansas
Harson."
During a bearing on a boxing
bill for Kansas before the state
legislature the Rev. Blackman up-
holri I )ii ninvmlii.n t a 11 nnh ! Kw
the American Legion.
"You say you're a minister of
the gospel?" queried a legislator,
interrupting the "parson's talk."
"Where do you get the text for
the remarks you're making In fa
vor of boxing?"
"The words of Saint Paul tak
en from First Corinthians, 9-26:
'I am a boxer and I hit hard and
fast,' " was the reply like a shot.
The legislator subsided.
Veterans of
All Wars To
Form Union
The newly organized Marion
Post of Veteruns of Foreign Wins
of the United Slates promises to
be one of the strongest patriotic
bodies in the city. Nearly 100
have already signed up and many
others are waiting for an oppor
tunity to do so. It is unique am
ong veterans' organizations In
that all veterans of any war who
have served the United States on
foreign soil are eligible to mem
bership, thus presenting a unite 1
front on all questions of patriot
ism best expressed in the word
Americanism.
It will in no way antagonize
Other patriotic organizations but
because of the- community inter
ests in their own ranks, will re
inforce and support them.
The meeting which was planned
for tonight has been postponed
until Wednesday night. March 30.
London, March 23. England is vitally interested in Ger
many's first billionaire. France is even more keenly inter
ested, and makes the fact that the post-war Germany can
create a billionaire a part of her argument that "Germany
Can Pay."
He is Hugo Stinnes, coal and industrial magnate, pub
lisher extraordinary, and, if some reports are to be believed,
virtual dictator of Germany today.
He came into international industrial resources are always
prominence in the sense that he
first came prominently into the
world news during the Spa confer
ence when he stood up with sharp
ness and bluntness against the al
lied conference, then attempting
regulation and increase of Ger
many's coal deliveries under the
peace treaty.
Controls Sixty Newspapers.
But before that he had been or
daily growing importance in Eu
ropean news, for he was emerging
from the comparatively nonenity
of his financial dominance Into
the world of politics, through his
purchase of newspapers through
out Germany. He is popularly
credited with control of more than
sixty newspapers.
It is no secret that the intelli
gence services of the allies has had
him under review, so to speak,
long before this. They promptly
made further inquiries when he
launched his newspaper buying
campaign. And since that time
the press of England has become
a self-appointed watchdog of the
doing of the German Rockefeller.
His new combines of capital and
printed. They have been numer
ous. It Is perhaps no exaggera
tion to estimate that at least one-!
a week during the past few
months, some item of news has
come out of Germany which tells
of an important financial move by
Stinnes, each time along the trust
building line so familiar In Amer
ica a score of years or more ag
There are ever reports tha' the
workers of the various Stinnes un
dertakings are trying to form, not
trades unions in the ordinary
sense of unifying workers of sin
gle trade into single countrywide
unions,. but an amalgamation, rt a
federation of all the locals ualoni
whose members are working for
Stinnes.
Is Dominating Factor.
Taken in the BMkCB, the frjg
mentary information a'.o'.u the
German super-magn:Ue patntl a
picture of awesome size. What
ever the governments th'n', and
they at least consider him u dom
inating factor in Kuropoan af
fairs, the press is keeping tabs on
Stinnes as though he were Wil
li elm himself.
on account of failure to receive
the equipment necessary for the
mustering in of a large number of
recruits waiting to join. All vei
erans who are eligible for member
ship will be welcome at that meeting.

CINDERELLA IS
BEAUTIFULLY
SCREENED
Fairy Episode is Bier Feature
of Paramount Picture,
"Forbidden Fruit"
Everyone knows the story of
Cinderella and the Fairy God
mother, and now all the world
may see the story presented with
the lavish beauty for which Cecil
B. He Mtlle is famous as producer,
when "Forbidden Fruit" comes
to the Oregon theater next Sun
day. The Incorporation Of the storv
of Cinderella In a vision episode
in the otherwise modern story
serves a two fold purpose: The
vision serves to explain much of
the subsequent action, ami it
gives Mr. I)e Mllle's colorful Im
agination and artistry full plav
with incomparably beautiful re
sults. This episode was filmed in a
stage setting constructed entl't
ly of plate glass. A ball roopi
floored and walled with heavy
glass, with a wide glass rtatrcase
beneath which waterfalls and
lights alternately play, form! the
central setting. Stately glai3 pil
lars supporting baskets of blown
glass fruit serve as fountains and
wide pools of water peopled by
black swans alternate with the
crystal floor. A section of t-iis
same crystal floor was so con
structed as to permit the ap
pearance of a massive clock with
two bronze figures which strike
the hour of twelve and the end
of Cinderella's dream. Agnes
Ayres portrays Cinderella, with
Kathlyn Villiams as the Fairy
Godmother. (adv)
