Yale's intentions are evidently to do
away with a system of coaching that
has failed consistently to bring football
victories. Howard Jones had made a
reputation. but he failed last year.
What Yale and practically every other
Eastern College needs is more OPEN
mindedness. The West is progressing
with laps and bounds. while the East
stands still. The elevens of Yale and

Washington, May 1.-Secretary of Com
merce Redheld in commenting on the i'm
ports and exports of the United States
for March and the nine months which
ended with that month says:
THE figures are striking both in mag
nitude and details. The aggregate bust
ness inward and outward of the United
States with foreign countries for the nine
months was a little In excess Of 1880, Ooo
Oo0 an Impressive total, which If main
tanned at the same ratio would bring the

Great Britain is our largest customer,

1924, 900 900, or a total business Of nearly
900 a month. Canada is our second
best customer, buying from us 100000 0
Germany comes third, buying s26S, 600, 0OC
from us and selling us STAG, ooo, 900. France
is fourth We sold to her $120, 100000 and
bought from her 100000.
1T is when we come to look at the de-
tails of our foreign commerce by what
are called great groups that we get at the
most striking facts. II, for example one
is told that our exports fell off in March
as compared with the same month year
ago by about $4,000, 100000 1t might not
seem n favorable condition.
when one looks a little closer he finds
the falling off almost wholly was In the
sales of crude materials for use In man.

there was an absolute gain In the i'm
portant items of manufactures, which In
the two important classes of manufac-
lures for further use In manufactures
and in manufactures ready for consump-
ton actually increased In the month OF
March by about $1,000. 600 So that our
manufactures held their grip upon the
foreign markets of the world more
strongly in March than they did a year
ago.
THE figures for the entire months
are such as to give just pride to every
thoughtful American. out of the total
transactions of 81, 800, 90, 600 there Is a bal
ance in our favor of a little over $780,

1t look even better. For example, our
