(UP) While a chiropodist repaired his feet for further ring engagements, heavyweight champion Bax Baer took time to deny that he will wed Mary Kirke Browne at least until he makes some more money. "No, no a thousand times no I'm not going to marry her," Baer said between the ministrations of the foot specialist and a reporter's ques tions. "I'm not going to marry any body until I quit the ring. "X can't quit the ring for a long time yet, not until I get some money. That's another reason I couldn't get married. I'm having enough trouble supporting myself, so how could I support a wife? ' Max glanced down at his feet. "I have ingrown toenails." the champion explained. "I'm Just up here to have them fixed up so they won't hurt so much when guys like Camera tramp on them. The doc's fixing the nails and massaging my arches and Just work! ng on them generally.

It was an enthusiastic session with sale and advertising talks, generously Interspersed with stage shows, moving picture and en tertainment. O. M. Campbell, adver tising head of the Shell organization In the northwest; R. Q. Land is, rep resenting Shell's advertising staff in San Francisco; R. V. Stevenson, man ager of the Eugene district, and Fred Johnson, Medford manager, were the principal speakers.

To the editor: Every day for the last several days the papers have been full of news concerning Germany's new stand on the Versailles Treaty and the other agreements which limited her arma ments. The papers have given special note to the remarks by French, Ital ian, and British statesmen to the ef fect that this new move by Germany has seriously affected the peace of Europe. In my opinion It has, but I wonder IX those same statesmen had a single thought about peace when they were suggesting and voting for new and larger expenditures for their own armies, navies, and air forces? In al most every country In the world and even here in the United States there have been huge campaigns for pre paredness. We must be sure and be prepared for the next war; but when Germany begins to arm and prepare for the next war then that ts some thing different she Is endangering the safety and peace of the world. As far as I can see, either the whole world haa to be prepared or the whole world has to be unprepared In order to keep peace. Of course It all sounds very foolish, but evidently that ts the attitude that a lot of people take. How can we have peace In Europe If France, Italy, and England arm them selves to the very limit while Ger many remains In a state of complete disarmament? According to the state ments just made, that would be a practical impossibility. The only sen sible a,rnatlve left Is for all cations to disarm. The funny catch there la, that France Is afraid to disarm be cause she would then lose her feeling of security if she ever had It. If the whole world will not disarm then the whole world must arm. Germany Is urmint; regardless of what any one else thinks. Personally I cannot see how any intelligent statesman or dip lomat can give any convincing rea sons why Germany should not re-arm, except of course, ,hat she Is breaking the Versailles Treaty which has long since been broken by the allies. It seems th'it the senate munitions committee's investigation la not im pressing the arms manufacturers very much. While the committee Is dig ging Into statlttlce. flies, etc., to get the many reasons why the munition Merchant's LUNCHES 35 Table d'Hotc or a La Carte Service The COLONIAL Everybody Welcome And His 12 Marvelous Musicians Archbishop Released ' ' 1 y ? -J a ' ' -" f -.s i r, .... .1 :; .

Archbishop Pascuai Oiai tabeve). leader of the Catholic church In Mexico, was re leased. (Associated Press Photo makers profits should be limited, the munition makers are selling millions of dollars worth ol armaments to the United States government. Members of the Benate investigating committee have expressed their belief that even If a bill Is finally drawn up which would place the control of munition factories In the hands of the federal government that It will not be passed during this session. If that Is a fact It will probably mean many months or even years before the bill will even get to congress, which will certainly be a point for the armament manu facturers. I personally hope that we have con gressmen who fully realize the Impor tance of the findings of the senate committee and who will do their ut most to pass a bill which will put the arms factories under complete control of the government during times of war.
