By Henry T. Russell

London, Oct. 23—(UP)“If they disarm you still fight with their knife and rabbit guns, or their teeth and claws,” said a tail, blueeyed white hatred old man with a Shawkin bound in reply to the question “Do you think that the nations win, will ever agree to disarm?”
It was during a conversation between George Bernard Sinw, popularly known as "G. R. S." and the director of the film, that he had granted an exclusive interview. It took place at the great notoriety apartment in Wickhall Hall Coll.
"Why am I never interviewed on serious questions?" Shaw ind asked.
"What about the effect of neocism in peace, war and disarmament?" was the immediate query of the United Press, to which the great writer replied: "All right then, put you into the air. And I will my best answer never move."
The Shavin challenge was accepted with the following result:
"Do you believe," he was asked. "That plots like the Kellegg pact are of any use in the prevention of future wars?"
How About United States?
"Are you satisfied that the United States agrees to foster peace and goodwill between all countries, believe that we certify, post, and present, that we have any serious action upon them?"
"The United States," Shaw replied, "proved in 1217 that it was more than

Question: "Do you think that the nuctions of the world will ever agree to diagram?"
Reply: "If they diagram they can still fight with their table knives and rabbit guns, or their tooth and claws."

Question: "Is public opinion sufficiently strong to prevent future wars?" The answer was yes, were another world war in prospect, the influence of modern womanhood
Women as Warfare as Men
Rugby? "Yes, if it sufficiently pacifist and plucky. There is no evidence that women are less warlike than men."
"What," was the next question, is "the next approach for peace?" What langers to peace do you visualize at present? What do you visualize in Primo De Rivera and the Spanish Dictatorship and possible social blank Albani *Elarreus* included?
Shaw's reply was "Italy is doubling her taxes on banknotes and offering religious rewards to large families with the avoided purpose of working up her man power (the reality of armament) so as to be able to hold her fortune." The book also depicts her independent of disdainment. In the face of it, and of cognate facts elsewhere it seems idle to describe the outlook for peace. The outlook is still for war."

Political Campaign Enters Final Week of Intense Activity
Both Candidates Putting Supreme Vote Getting Efforta Into Last Minutes
Minutes
By Carl D. Groat
Washington, Oct. 29. — (UP)— week from tomorrow it will be al over but the shooting.
On Nov. 6, men and women voters, probably to the number of 35,000,000 to 40,000,000, will go to the polls throughout the United States to decide whether Hewlett Hoover or Gove will be president for the next four years.
Hoover Home to Vote
Hover Home to Vote
Both candidates are putting in their best efforts to win votes, into this last week. With Smith in Baltimore now and hitting hard for east-central stretch Hover is planning to move on to his fight for the Palo Calif. home to vote.
Hower at New York last Monday charged that Smith's program or water压力, farm relief and prohibition, presented "State Social Services" against his opponent. A tack on his opponent, Smith answer it in Boston two nights later.
Norris Declares for Smith
Citing some prominent Republican who agreed with his previous winter policy, the Republicans say they must be labeled State Socialism, too, if he is to be so characterized. The next political situation was Senator George Norris' declaration that Republicans senator hold Progressives would not logically support Goose. Democrats forwake his statement about the Nebraska, Minnesota and the Dakotas. Republicans maintained it could not upset the situation materially at all.
The final burst of the past week was Hoover's announcement he would fill an extra session to deal with farm relief if the December short session did not pass. He shortened the short closing in practically certain to do nothing vital with this problem. Hoover's statement was taken as a pledge, if elected, to begin farm legislation — and probably say anything that would give it more live time — at an early moment.
