Sunderland. Eng, Feb. 6.-An op-

made by Winston Churchill, secre-
tary Of state for war, in a speech

Our exuort trade IL growing

less by the enormous sum of 6 400,
900, 900 at the end of the year than
it was at the end Of last year The
revenue also shows steady eXpan-
sion.
We are on the high road to re-
covery from the injuries and the re-
tardation Of the war and TO consoli-
dation of the great position won by
the prowess of our soldiers in the
field But there is one condition.
We must all work together during
the period of reconstruction"

Des Moines, Feb. 6.--Earl Caddock

Nsb. Mslady bases his contention
that Joe ssecher OF Dodge. Neb. did
not win the title In the match In
New York last week on the grounds
that the catch las catch can rules

money that it would have been

"Caddock demonstrated one thing
that he Is the most pupular

New York simply went wild over
him. In defeat he was the idol Oh

taking two games from the Kansas
Agyies last week the Meanweil
basket cagers took such a lead that
there is little chance OF any other

been picked as the strongest teams
In the valley and the Aggie followers
hoped to get at least an even break
in the two game series at Columbia
and then to win the two-gaIne series
from the Tigers at Manhattan early
in March. This would have given
the Kansas school the championship.

game Saturday the Aggie chances
faded. In the first game Friday the
Aggies gave the Tigers a close game

Washington was the other school
to improve its standing during the

games. Marquard, who was kept Out
OF the Missouri series because of 4

The Pikers met Ames on Wednesday
