John r. Thompson, Feeder Of
Million. Americans, Packs
Grip for Coco Slovakia

Chicago, ILL.,, June 9.-Czecho Slo-
vakia, in addition to being the most
mispronounced little nation in Eu-
rope, has become Americas best bet
as a sugar counter. American res
taurateurs and wholesale grocers
suddenly discovered that there is
more sugar in Slovakia than the
Czechs know what to do with. AS
the sugar shortage in this country
increases, a grand rush for the beet
crop of the new European republic is
predicted. John R. Thompson, whose
hundreds of restaurants throughout
the country feed sugar to millions or
quick lunch fans, is the first OF the
big purveyors in the United States
to head for the Czech sugar surplus.
Mr.. Thompson left New York with
100000 Czecho Slovakian crowns
in his suitcase to buy sugar from the
markets around Prague.

BENZ IS SOLUTION
OF PRESENT UNREST
Advocates Raising More Crops,
Increase Acreage and More
Factory Production

A. Benz, the potato king Of the
Yakima Valley, pointed out in q
forceful way the advantages of CO.
operation between merchant, farmer
and laborer. He touched upon prac-
tically every angle causing the pres
ent unrest throughout the land today
and suggested that the one way to
overcome such conditions is to in
crease production, both on the farm
and in the shop.
He referred to the local strike sit
uation and believed that difficulties
could be overcome by getting to-
gether and talking things over.
A number of other speakers gave
interesting talks on the methods and
manner of clearing land by the use
Of dynamite, and pointed out where
land values would rapidly increase as
a result of increased production and
acreage of crops.
Earl A. Barker, president of the
Bemidji Civic and Commerce asso-
citation, presided at the meeting.

Heavy storms which swept over all
Northern Minnesota and North Da-

cut off all wire communication from

KING GEORGE OPENS
BRITISH WAR SHOW
(By United, Press. }

London, June 9.-King George, &C
companied by Queen Mary and Prin-
cess Mary today opened the Imperial
War Museum at the Crystal Palace,
incidentally reopening the famous
glass structure at Sydenham after six
years war service. The Crystal Palace
is the original building erected in
Hyde Park for the famous fair of
1851, and transferred to it's present
south London home some years later.
Since the outbreak of the war, it
has been used as a training depot
for recruits, transport and motor
lorry depot, and a rehabilitation
center.
. The Imperial War Museum is to be
permanent, but this year it is being
run in conjunction with the Great
Victory Exhibition, a combination
which taxes even the capacity of the
worlds largest exhibition building.
Every type Of war engine is on view,
from an automatic pistol to the big
gest howitzer, from trench dagger
to tank, and many secrets of Bri-
tain's resources in the war are re-
vealed, in part at least, to the public
for the first time.
There is an imposing display Of
captured German, Austrian, Turkish
and Bulgarian trophies. An important
feature Of the Victory exhibition is
that devoted to oil exhibits, making
possible some appreciation Of the
part played by oil in the long strug-
ole

NEW RULES TO CLEAR
WEIGHT QUESTION

(By Henry L. Farrell, United Press
staff Correspondent
New York, June 8.-Pete Herman
is featherweight; Johnny Kilbane is
a lightweight; Benny Leonard is a
welterweight; Jack Britton is mid
dleweight and Johnny Wilson is a
light heavyweight.
So their opponents say.
In fact, Jimmy Wilde and Jack
Dempsey are the only champions not
accused of parading around in
grounds where they don't belong.
Establishment of a. uniform scale
\Qf weights has been one of the most
needed moves to get boxing on a
sound foundation in America.
, Boxers guard their weight as close
ly as if diplomatic secret that might
cause war. They weigh in the dark
and permit only a member of the
first degree Of kindred to see what
the needle points to.
Under the new Walker boxing bill,
which permits fifteen rounds to a de-
cisiop in New York, a new system of
weights is established which may find
national adoption.
The division minimums are boost
ed a bit to get the classes within
the reach of others. than physical
freaks.
The rules of the army, navy and
civilian board of boxing control,
which will govern the sport in New
York, recognize the following scale
xof weights:
Flyweight, 112 pounds; bantam
118 pounds; feather, 1926 pounds
Eight weight, 1876 pounds; weller, IA
pounds; middleweight, 100 pounds
light heavyweight, IT'S pounds
heavyweight, unlimited.
The rules force a champion to
make the weight of his class, not the
weight of their own liking, custom
that is prevalent in every class in
America.
