more than S79,OO0,ONO.
British Africa bought nearly S19,-
100000 from us ard the rest of
Africa enough to make our total
sales there more than 100000
Our entire foreign sales for 1918
were S2,4G5 $4,000, but very nearly
s1,000,000,OO0 of those exports did
not go to Europe at all; and of the
81 479,000,O0O which did 60 to Eu-
rope no inconsiderable part was re-
sold from there to all quarters of the
globe, not excluding our own United
States, as partly or fully manufac-
tured goods out of the material taken
from US.
With an export trade already won
in 1913 of nearly 100000, 900 a
year to countries entirely outside of
The war zcne of Europe, we have now
much mere than a chance merely to
hold that trade. To that billion dol
lars we have chance > add here,
there. and everywher, sales that
were made before by the Delligerent
nations OF Europe, no longer able
while they are fighting on tie battle
field to contest for victories in the
industrial and commercial fields.
If we weren't going to sell a dollar
in Europe, the foreign trade which
we have already won outside of Flu
rope and the foreign trade which we
can win outside of Europe, because
SO much of it is abandoned to us by
former competitors, woul., make a
huge total of foreign trade for the
United States such as nobody even
dreamed of a generation ago as a
underworld business, every single
nation of Europe included.
But we are doing business with
Europe. At this very minute we are
selling enormous supplies to Great
Britain and France. If they are
chiefly war supplies, they are never
theless wheat and corn and horses
and oats that all come from cur
1arms, just as much as if they were
called FOR in peace; and clothing.
shoes, blankets, cotton materials
which come from our mills and fac
tories, as in peace; an all manner of
iron md steel products, even to
motor trucks to be used in the quar-
termaster's department of the
armies, but coming out of CIR indus
trial plants just the same.
And on top of all that, our own
mills and factories have already be-
gun to sell in growing quantities to
our own American consumers many
that have been coming from
foreign mills and factories and that
would be coming here now if the war
had no. put upon our imports from
Europe an embargo more rigid than
was ever put upon them ny any
American tariff.

THE SPORT ELEMENT.

In a remarkably frank and wholly
cynical story about the game in Hhil-
adelphia yesterday, Ty Cobb gives an
inside view of the professional base
Lall mind Ty is some player him
self; also, it is said that ne actual
ly writes the baseball articles that
appear under his name; he doesn't
leave il 20 an amanuenSis more skill
ed in literatIre than in hating.
Cobb opines that the Athletics
made their great mistake in failing
to get the signals Of heir enemies.
That, ne says. has always been a
great trick of the Athletics.
When the catcher crouches on his
launches just before the ball is to be
pitched, he holds his hands between
his knees, ard with his fingers signs
10 the pitcher what sort of ball to
send Glong. 1t is necessary that
neither he batter nor the men on
the coaching lines shall see the sig
nal; and because it is necessary. the
batting team makes all kinds of cf-
forts to learn it. According to Cobb.
he Pet trick Of the Athletics has
been for the batter to steD back
from his place SO that the men on
The coaching lines might have a bet
ter chance to see tie finger play and
get the signal. Yesterday, Cybb
says, whenever batter stepped hack
in this fashion. the Boston catcher,
he astute Mr.. Gowdv. simply at
tight and gave no signal: he waited
till the batter was in tn boy where
he belonged and neither batter r0r
coaching lines had the .:ha-ce to SEE
the wig -wagcing Of the index finger.
IF that sort Of trickery is 50 i'm
portant as to provide for sn expert
like Cobb an explanation Of now the
Braves upset the dope. thec baseball
is still less real sport tran even its
modern critics have inclined to re-
gard it. It cant afford to encourage
its public il such opinions.
an impression. not wholly crafty
ing, would have heen accumulated by
Mr. Connie Mack if he could have
cen the crowds about he Washing
ton scorehoardS yesterday. Nearly
everybody in Washington believed
before the game-that the series
would In q runaway for the Ath-
letics. and seemingly as a result ot
this the scoreboard galleries we
very small for such an occasion.
Among those :rieG-and-truc follow
CTs Of me game who turned out. il
was observed that almost every fan
J1ck Of them was iooting for the
Braves. In this American lear'Ie
town, whore the Athl.tics have 81
many times PLAYED, thn. certainly
suggests something abort the pop-
ularity CT the Philadelphia oft-tinle
winners.
Stealing the nthei. fellows signals
may be legitimate enough as the
game gees; we don't claim to know.
Perhaps they all do it if they can,
and Mackdom is merely more prof.
Gent al it than Others. Anyhow, if
this detail is so important that Ty
Cobb can explain the winning or los
iAs Of p championship game in it.

While organizations have been
carrying on a nationwide cam
paign for the prevention of tuber,
culosis, the Starmont Aid, a Wash.
ington organization, has done ef.
fectipe work in aiding cases in this
city to receive proper care at sdni-
tdriumS.
More than $4,000 has been ex-
pended in such relief work since
the formation, in 1906, of this So
ciety, and it is nom necessary to
raise S2,5OO annually to meet the
demands upon it for assistance.
Though independent of the Star
mont Sdnitarium, the Stormont Aid
nom sends its cases to the institu-
tion at Washington Grove. 1t is
believed that patients can be bet

The campaign for the prevention Of
tuberculosis has reached national
proportions. institutions for the care
OF patients reach ont to a wide ter
ritory. but the care Of individual pa
tients must remain a local problem.
To meet this. the Starmout Aid, Of
Washington, vas formed.
The Starmont Aid now sends its
patients to the Starmont Sanltarium,
at Washington Grove. Nd. But that
Is the only connection between that
institution and the society. At times
when the sanitarium vas closed pa
tients were sent away to other in

tarium now they would ne sent
