SAYS CURIOSITY IS CAUSE FOR
 MANY MISHAPS

Milwaukee. Wis. Oct. 1-Curiosity is the cause of many accidents to the public, said H. w. Lueck, of the Com monwealth Edison Company of Chi cago, in an address on conduit laying hazards before the Public Utilities Section of the Ninth Annual Safety Congress of the National Safety Coun- ciI at the Milwaukee Auditorium to- day.
 There are too many idle curious people who stand around and watch the operations of workers engaged in hazardous tasks" said MT Lueck. "They often get injured through this curiosity. Innocent bystanderS a1- ways do get into trouble-only in this case the guilt actually rests upon the so-cal1ed innocent bystanders-ss He should have been going on about his business.

ITCHING ECZEMA DRIED RIGHT UP
 WITH SULPHUR

Any breaking out of the skin, even fiery, itching eczema. can be quickly overcome by applying a lit tie Mentho-Sulphur, says a noted skin specialist. Because of it's germ destroying properties, this sulphur preparation instantly brings ease from skin irritation, soothes and heals the eczema right up and leaves the skin clear and smooth.
 It seldom fails to relieve the tor ment and disfigurement. Sufferers from skin trouble should get a little jar of Mentho-Sulphur from any good druggist and use it like cold cream. Adv.

COST OF BETTER RAILROADS.

Theodore H. Price in the Worlds Work for October, says:
 Upon the theory that the average American family consists of five per sons, the increase of $1,500. 100000 in railway revenue will be distributed at an average rate of $75 per family, and the probability is that the average increase will be a good deal in excess of $75 per family, unless by a reduc- ton in consumption or buying the per family expenditures in the United States should be cut by an average of $75 or more.

DEMPSEY NOT TO
MEET FRENCHMAN
SOON, BELIEVED
After Conferences the 0pin-
ion Is General That Car
pentier viii Not Enter the
Ring Here in Near Future.

fsY MORNING JoU7I.L SPECIAL LEASED wlEEl
New York, March 23.-The ar
rival here today of Georges Car
pentier, European heavyweight
champion, caused the proposed
match with Jack Dempsey to flame
afresh, but after several hours of
mysterious conferences with yari-
Gus promoters. there was little evil
dence to indicate that the French
pugilist would meet Defpsey in the
near future.
The abandon with which Carpen-
tier and his manager, Descamps,
signed contracts recently, here
and abroad, stunned American
promoters, and left them in doubt
as to the possibility of bringing
Carpenter and Dempsey together
within the next twelve months.
A close analysis of the situation
disclosed the fact that the French
man was under contract with
three different promoters which
bound him to perform certain
services which are closely related
and which apparently prevent him
from actually boxing Dempsey for
Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1920-03-24

some months, providing he is so
inclined, The English promoter,
Cochran, has first option on Ger
pentier's ring services, providing
he can obtain De9npsey's signature
for a match, the option extending
TO December 81, according to one
report, and to July, 1921, accord
ing TO another statement.
In addition, Jack Curley, wrest-
ling promoter, has Carpenter
booked for a ten weeks vaudeville
tour beginning May s, with another
five-weeks extension if he desires
to exercise it. Curley stated that
he expected to tour the country
with the French pugilist, the lat
ter giving sparring exhibitions
with his own sparring partners.
A third contract is with a NOV
ing picture concern which has
booked Carpenter for two seven
reel films in which he will take thu
part Of a college youth combined
with a boxing role. The possibility
of a match with a French or Eng
fish heavyweight in France in
August was also mentioned and
local fight followers are puzzled
as to when Carpenter will find
time to box Dempsey,
Manager Descamps, when inter
viewed through an Interpreter,
stated flatly that Carpenter has no
intention of engaging to box Demp-
sey untii the latter's "n'ilitary af-
fairs" had been cleared up. A some
what similar statement was cred
tied to Jack Kearns. manager of
Dempsey, according to one of the
interested parties, who said he had
received a letter from Kearns to
the effect that Dempsey would not
consider a match of any descrip-
ton until his name had been clear
ed of the draft evasion charge.
Tex Rickard. who was closeted
with Carpenter and his manager
for several hours, was non-commit-
tai after the conference and refused
to give any definite idea of his
plans in regard to staging a bout
between the French boxer and
Dempsey. His only comment was
to the effect that it did not appear
that such a match courd be arrang-
ed for the summer or fall.
Notwithstanding the uncertainty
of such a conflict, Carpenter was
greeted in impressive fashion and
will be the guest at several semi
public functions during the next
few days. Chief among these will
be dinner rendered to the pugil-
lists party on Thursday night by the
officers of the International Sport
ing club, at which a number of
prominent personages will formally
welcome Carpenter to America.
Several important announce
ments are expected to be made at
the dinner, which will be of great
interest to followers of sport. The
formation of a league to represent
various professional sport organ
izations will probably be made pub
lie as well as a statement from
former champion Jess Willard, pro-
vided the latter can reach this city
in time to attend the banquet.
Carpenter is expected to give
demonstration of his boxing skill If
a suitable opponent can be obtained
to oppose him.

PLAN To EXP AND
TRADE BROACHED.
At LOUISVILLE
Suggest Use of Shipping
Board Steamships to Car
ry U. S. Products and Ex-
hibit in Worlds Ports.

ny ~ossIN7 JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wlsEl
Louisville, Ky. March ga
plan has been formulated here to
expand the foreign trade of the
United States through the use Of
shipping board steamships as eX-
hibition vessels to carry American
manufactured products and visit
the worlds principal ports,
The idea, advanced ry the for
eign commerce service Of the
Southern railway anu Mobile AZ
Ohio railroads, has been presented
to the midwest Gulf south Atlantic
foreign trade and transportation
committee, representing CONNER
cial organizations of the principal
middle west and southern states
which has been asked to lend its
weight to fruition of the plan.
Answers to letters sent to more
than a score of cities in the organi
cation enthusiastically endorse the
plan, according to H. G. Mclean,
of Louisville, assistant foreign
freight traffic manager of the two
railroads.
Mr.. Mclean says the plan is
similar to that proposed by the
British government which pro-
poses a gigantic touring exhibition
for British industry. The British
plan, as described in a recent
American consular report, would
be initiated with an itinerary COM
prising South Africa, Australia,
New Zealand, and Canada, THE
duration of the tour" the report
says, will be about eighteen
months and should the venture be
attended with that degree of sue
cess which is anticipated for it.
similar projects to other parts of
the world will receive consdera-
ton. 1t is intended that some 500
British firms shall be invited TO
take part in the tour. The scheme
has been sanctioned by the gov
eminent board Of trade and the
venture will be planned and car
ried out by the department of
overseas trade"
Use of American foreign trade
exhibition ships, Mr.. Mclean said,
would enable hundreds of Ameri-
can manufacturers periodically 10
exhibit their products before
thousands of foreign buyers. Such
exhibitions in charge of competent
statesmen, he declared. would make
possible a vast co-ordinated Amer
lean foreign selling organization.
Moreover" said Mr.. Mclean, "the
exhibitions are absolutely neces-
SarV to meet the combined plans of
hundreds of British manufacturers
who are backing the organization
of the British products touring ex-
hihition."
Furthermore, said Mr.. Mclean,
it would enable a very large num-
Der of American manufacturers,
who have never thought in terms
of export trade, to enter that bus
mess at a comparatively small
cost.
