Y. M. C. A. ATHLETES IN
 THEIR ANNUAL EXHIBITION

One of the best gymnastic exhibi- tions held here in many years took place at the Y M L. A. on Tuesday evening when the classes under the di- rection of Physical Director John M. Swahn displayed the results of MT. Swahn's careful instruction. The gal lery of the gymnasium was packed with a crowd numbering we'll over 100 persons.
 The exhibition started with a march ing drill followed by clever dumb bell work by the combined classes. After the drill the gymnasts who numbered 29 were divided into two squads, one squad doing work on the parallel bars and the other working the horse. Neil Crowley, of the Norwich State Hos pital and a product or the local gym assisted in the work on both pieces of apparatus and his finished exfi- bition would have done credit to a professional athlete. Rossler, Card and DixI&, were also very clever in this work and showed much hard training.
 A tunbling act by Gerald Goldfad- den and Samuel Goler was one of the best and cleverest acts ever presented by two local athletes and with a little more practice these two should do credit to the professional line.
 Mir. Crowley was warmly applauded B. lights in the gym were eXtinguished and his clubs were ighted with green and red and made very pretty effect in the darkness of the hall.
 The fine points of the wrestling game were shown ill an exhibition match between Al Lundstrom of Worcester and Fred Williams of Norwich. These two entertained for a number of min- utes showing many of the holds used and the way of breaking them. Both boys are well built for this sport but Lundstrom, who is New England s champion, was far superior to Will i mat artist in this part of the state Lundstrom recently defeated Joe 1 Shimkue, the claimant for the New | England title. Lundstrom threw | Shimkue, in one hour and 32 minutes ! for the first fall and in 32 minutes fol l the second fall

Stock aMrket Presented
A Better Front Today

New York, Jan. 24.--The Evening
Sun financial reviews today said:
The trading community came to a
better realization today that stock msr-
kct pessimism has been overdone and
gave more heed to constructive factors.
Not that there were any important new
developments affecting quoted values
for Wall Street to consider, but prin-
cipally because of the belief that stocks
at going prices have already largely
discounted any unfavorable events
which the near future may hold.
Taken altogether, the stock market
presented a much better front today
than for week or more. This was due,
of course, to a considerable extent to
technical reasons within the market it.
self. The short side having been the
popular one, it had become overcrowd-
ed and the taking of profits evidently
played as important part in elevating
quotations as new buying.

WAR DEPARTMENT
WELCOMES PROBE
Secretary Baker Promises
Full Information In Such
investigations.

Washington, Jan. 24.-The war de-
-partment will welcome congressional
investigation either into the affairs of
the department or the conduct of the
war, Secretary of War Baker and
Chief of Staff March told the house
rules committee today.
If this is taken Baker promised full
information and that testimony of Of
ficers who have been in France would
be made available.
Baker declared, however, that an ac-
cur@te investigation such as called for
in a resolution by Representative Camp
bell of Kansas into reports that the
35th division had suffered abnormal
casualties because of faulty handling
and poor care, was difficult at this
time because the officers who had in
formation, as well as documents, were
overseas.
Immediately following Baker and
March Is testimony the rules committee
adjourned without acting on the Camp
bell resolution.
Total replacements of the division at
last reports were l0,605, which includ-
ed all sick, wounded and men removed
from active duty for any cause, Bak-
er said.
Total Killed
The total killed and died of disease
up to November l were S79, March
said.
Campbell 8 resolution recited reports
that the casualties in the Argonne bat
tie alone were 1000.
Charges that the division had not
proper artillery support were refuted
by the definite statement that at no
time was the division out of range of
support of its corps and the army ar
tillery, March said.
Baker and March both described the
Argonne battle as the most difficult
operation undertaken during the war,
if not the most difficult in military
history.
''The losses were incredibly small
for such an advance" March said.
There were approximately 100000
men in the attack and four thousand
guns, the greatest military eoncentra-
ton ever attempted, were collected for
the fight.

THINKS AUSTRALIAN
LABOR SYSTEM best
New South Wales Labor Min.
lister Advocates Adoption
By us. OF This Plan.

New York, Jan. "a. = Permanent
peace cannot be assured until the ma
tions Of the world are placed on an
equal footing as far as labor is con-
cerned,' said G. s. Beeby, minister of
labor for New South Wales, today pre-
vious to his departure for England to
continue his investigations of condi-
tions.
He has been in the United States
three months, visiting San Francisco,
Portland, Oregon, Denver, Chicago,
Pittsburg, Philadelphia and other in
dustrial and trade centers.
Explaining the system in operation
in Australia, he said he believed it
could be made applicable here as well
as in European nations by building up
a system that will create a better un-
derstanding between capital and labor.
"The recognition of the fundamen-
tails of the eight hour day, the right to
organize, the settlement of industrial
disputes by conference and negotiation
instead of litigation he advocates
as essentials in laying the foundation
of stable labor conditions.
Are Now Disintegrated
"The splendid organizations you
have had during the war to control
the situation are now virtually disinte-
grated and the industrial conditions are
more or less chaotic, said Beeby. The
adoption of the Australian system to
the United States, he believes will rem
edy this condition.
The Australian laws, as effective or
proposed, provide for:
Federal regulation of factory and
shop.
Industrial safety.
Workmen s compensation and acci-
dent and social insurance.
A method of fixing the basic living
wage.
Control of child labor apprentice
ship and vocational training.
Prescribing of the standard working
day.
These laws control all other matters
directly affecting employers and work
men s relations.
The arbitration boards, he said, con
sist of an equal number of represent
atives from both sides, with an indie
pendent chairman.
