WHEN FAUST THREW THE TURK
Man Who VIII Meet Bailey Tomorrow
Toyed with Karakanoff.

Harry Faust, the German grappler
who meets Bailey in Festival hall to
morrow night, has great mat record.
He met and defeated the Terrible
Turk in Montreal and the Herald de-
scribed the bout as follows: ''About
$3.50 people last night saw Harry
Faust the strongest, cleverest, toughest
and fastest European wrestler in the
game today, turn Karakanoff, the Turk,
inside out.
''The Turk quit cold He is a terri
BILE Turk, but not with Faust. i've

off the mat. Faust laughed and tried
to pull him back, but the Turk re
fused to continue. A rumor was afoat
that Karakanoff would strangle Faust
and Faust with his German smile and
stocky build was there to be strangled
but the Turk didn t have ghost of a
show.
1.-THE trouble lasted about 81 min
utes but Faust did some work IN that
time. He sure had the Turk tied up
in some awful holds. Go-as-you-pl please

actually kill an opponent with any one
of his dozens of dangerous locks and

''Once, it was in the first fall he
bent the Turks leg till at cracked;

city and there has been much demand

BRITAIN CONSIDERS
ANTI-DUMPING LAW
Active Movement Started to Protect
Home Trade After the War Closes
Fear Germans Output.

LONDON, March 90. Correspond
ence of The Associated Press.)-The
prospect of the dumping of large
stocks of German goods on the British
market as soon as the close of the war
releases the pent-up German produc-
ton, has started an active movement
for an "anti- dumping" law. American
dealers here say this same prospect of
dumping being accompanied by a
States, as the blockade of German
ports has had the effect of accumulat-
ing vast stocks of products which will
eventually be freed to seek foreign
markets.
A parliamentary white paper, sum
marking the views of a board of trade
committee on this subject, asserts
that the dumping will affect neutral
| countries as well as England, the
81 dumping being accompanied by a
cut in prices to gain foreign markets.
The report says:
''In view of the threatened dumping
of stocks which may be accumulated
in enemy countries the Government
should take steps as would prevent the
position of industries likely to be at
| fected being endangered after the war
or during the period required for a
wider consideration of the whole ques-
ton.
| "There is general fear that imme-
| diately after the war this country will
| be flooded with German and Austro-
| Hungarian goods, sold at almost any
| price, and that the competition in
prices which was going on before the
war will be accentuated with resultant
| serious difficulty to all manufacturers
/ of goods of kinds exposed to this COM
petition and positive disaster to those
manufacturers who have been en-
| couraged to extend their operations or
engage in new branches of industry
with view to capturing trade hither-
| to carried on by enemy countries.
The conviction that the prices at
which German goods viii be offered in
the British and neutral markets after
the war will be even lower than the
pre-war quotations is based on two as
umptions-frst, that in some branch
/ es of industry at least Germany has
| been accommodating large stocks during
the war, and, secondly, that immedi-
ately upon the conclusion of peace she
will make every effort to recover heI
position in the world s markets and to
crush nascent competition, and that in
carrying out that policy cheapness will
be a potent weapon.
The representative of one of the
largest American electrical concerns
said the statement in the White paper
applied quite as much to the United
States as to Great Britain.
''Our firm was for a long time mys
titled as to how Germany controlled
the English electrical market before
b. the war; said he. . Finally we got
the balance sheet of the German cleo
trical concern, showing 80 per cent
profits in some countries and no profits
in other countries, including England
That is, large profits in some coun-
tries. permitted actual losses in othel
countries in order to gain the market
That is the chief danger of dumping
when the bloekales end and the ac
eumulated stocks of German products
are turned loose on the world.
