Raising the question u to whether the games "aotually do promote peace and good will," the newspaper says: "Peace and good-will were not promoted by the Berlin meetings (In 1036) even though the Ger man government saw to It that the groans of the victims In the concentration oampa were not audible to the Olympic specta tors. Peace and good-will will not be prompted by the Tokyo meet ings, even though, as one Japan ese spokesman put It, 'the atrug gle In China has no bearing on the situation; the conflict la be in? carried on far away."

By OAVLK TALBOT NEW YORK, June 21. (AP Max Schmellng. bronzed and ready after five weeks of hard trnlnlng In the mountains, comps Into town today for the crucial fight of hla long ca reer, tomorrow night's 15-round tus sle with Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis at the Yankee stadium. It will be a far different entry from that of two years ngo when the German schlngor came In for his first bout with tho wonder negro. On that occasion the odds were fl-to-1 and up that Schmellng was a goner. This time he comes a the proud. confident conqueror, certain that by midnight tomorrow he wilt be balled to the four corners of tho earth as the first man ever to regain the heavyweight title. He knocked the young Negro out In the 12th round of their first meeting, and he means to do It again before an expected throng of 76.000, and a ftDOO.OOO house." Favor Negro Again Again the weight of expert opin ion Is against the 32-year-old Oer man, but only In a slight degree by comparison with the 1036 fight, when Max was almost alone in pre dieting his victory. This time i comprehensive poll of experts re veals that about 40 per cent of them like his chances. Schmellng Is making the five hour trip from speculator by auto mobile and train arriving here at 10 tonight. Louis, unless he changes his plans, will not motor In from Pompton lakes until he goes to the commis sion office for the official welgh-ln at noon tomorrow. For once, there are no report that either fighter has Injured a hand In training, or Is any way off hta feed. Dr. William Walker of the boxing commission, has pronounced the pair in perfect condition. Attmrtlve Odds. The gamblers still are offering at tractive odds. That Is, they will lay 0 agalnnt your i3 If you fancy Schmellng. If, however, you like Louis, then It becomes necewwry to post 810 to win by a knockout, as a surprising number of experts do. Max s latest observations reveal that he la as cocksure as ever, and even a little spiteful In his evalua tion of Louis. "He talks much about knocking me out," nays Max, "but he remembers how I hit him. rvm't worry he remembers. He knows that he hit me, too. and that I took It." Louis, who appears to have de veloped a genuine distaste for the German, repeats doggedly that he will score a quick killing. This hasn't been played up as a "grudge fight," but there will be considerable feeling behind every punch that Is thrown tomorrow night.
