MUNICH PEACE SEES AIDING DEMOCRACIES IN ARMS RACE GERMANY HELD AT PEAK OF ARMAMENT RATE - ONE-THIRD NATION'S INCOME USED FOR MILITARY OUTLAY EXPERTS UNCERTAIN HOW LONG EFFORT CAN CONTINUE WASHINGTON, Oct. 6. Even on tnl side ot S.00O mlle of ocean, the peace of Munich la hard to swallow. It has too much tha look of making Adolf Hitler the autocrat of Europe. But, before you decide that lunacy has been permanetly enthroned, there la one thing to remember. Peace gives the democracies an open track In an armament race. And. In an armament race, the dic tatorships are like claiming stake nags In good training, while Eng land and France resemble War Ad miral after a summer at grass. The dictatorships have had the edge at tho start, but the democracies pos sess Incomparably greater reserves of strength and staying power. One-Third of a Nation. - Indeed, Germany is already mak ing her peak armament effort, un less American experts are badJy de ceived. Recently . several crack gov ernment economists have made care-1 ful studies of European conditions. The president himself has been deep ly Interested, and, besides drawing Information from technicians at tached to our embassies, experts have crossed the Atlantic, to see for them selves. At least two special reports have been compiled on Germany alone. And one of these reports shows that Rerr Hitler Is now using one-third of the German national Income on expenditures which may be classed as military. The figure comes from one of the shrewdest and most con servative economists In Washington, yet It seems Incredible. To be sure, the fltrure Includes a vast range of expenditures which would not be called military In this country. Germany's spending for armaments alone Is quite staggering, considering her resources. But food reserves, clothing reserves, additional (Continued on Page Pen.) LA OHANDE. Oct. 8.

IN LAST T DIZZY DEAN DiMaggio, Crosetti Connect ' Gomez, Though Lifted, Given Win Credit Marty and Great Dean Star. WRIGLEY FIELD, Chicago. Oct. 6. (TP) Booming home-runs by Prankle Crosetti and Joe DIMagglo In the last two Innings, each with a mate on base, drove Dizzy Dean from the hill and gave the New York Yankees their second straight world series vic tory over the disheartened Chicago Cubs, 6 to 3. before a crowd of 42,108 this chilly day. Although he had been lifted for a pinch-hitter just before Crosetti ! crashed what proved the winning j homer In the eighth. Lefty Gomer. i was credited with the victory and a new record of winning six world series games without a defeat. Dean, the losing hurler, had given die slugging Yanks only three hits up to the eighth Inning and ap peared to be coasting to certain tri umph until Selkirk opened the fatal eighth with a single and after two forceouts Crosetti hit his drive Into the left bleachers. DIMaggfb's blow In the ninth with Henrtch aboard was an anti-climax, more or less. Cubs nejerted. The second straight defeat was a crusher for the Cubs, who looked utterly dejected as they wandered from the field. The Yanks were so hilarious after DIMagglo's wallop that they threw all their bate onto the gross and several did a war dance In front of the dugout. As the teams leave tonight for New York, the Cubs face the Im probable task of winning two of the three games scheduled in Yankee stadium in order to keep the series alive and even returning to Chicago for the wlndup. Manager Joe Mc Carthy said that Monte Pearson prob ably would be his starting pitcher In the third game on Saturday. Dean Goes Strong. Until Crosetti hit his three-and-two ball after fouling off a half dozen. It looked like Dean had the Yanks in his hip pocket and that his S to 3 lead would be plenty. They had been breaking their backs swinging on his alow curves, and only 15 Yanks had faced him the la.-rt five straight Innings. The Yanks had scored their first two runs on a fluky double by .Toe Gordon In the second Inning, the ban rolling to the outfield when Stan Hack and Bill J urges coll Wed going after It, and DIMagglo and Gehrig crossing the plate. That was how good the Great Dlz had bee so the shock was terrific when Cros etti. then DiMaggio teed off on him. He probably was a trifle tired. DI Magglo's homer was a real wallop that sared far out of sight over the left field wall. The Cubs didn't find Oomen very puzzling. In fact, they collected nine hits off him before Johnny Mtirphy went in to atop them with his sweeping curves In the eighth ana nintn. Tha official box score: New York (A.L.)
