OPPOSE JAPANESE
GOLD STANDARD PLAN
CHINESE AND JAPANESE ARE
OPPOSED TO SCHEME PRO-
POSED BY THE JAPS.

TOKIO-(By A. P.)-Opposition
both by Japanese and Chinese mer-
chants at Dairen to Japan's attempt
to set up the gold standard in the
Kwantung leased territory as a SUBJ
stitute for the Chinese silver stand
ard is leading subject of discussion
in Japan.
The conservative Jiji Shimpo thinks
that if the adoption of gold stand
ard can facilitate and increase trans
actions, it shold be carried out, how
ever strong the opposition to it may
be. But if, on the other hand, the
proposal is calculated to depress and
interfere with transactions, it should
be opposed. From this point of view,
the newspaper thinks, it seems that
there is reason for the present oppo-
sition. 1t is Chinese who buy in the
interior districts the staple prodcts of
Manchuria and Mongolia and bring
them to the Dairen market.
They buy on the silver basis and
when Darien transactions are based
on a silver basis, as at present, they
are free from the danger Of charges
in the parity of gold and silver If a
gold standard is adopted they may
desert the Darien market in favor of
Vladivostock or Harbin. Moreover,
changes in the parity of gold and
silver may make it impossible for
some Chinese to execute contracts.
Under the existing system the risk
of change in the parity of gold and
silver is borne chiefly by Japanese
exporters who are not only capable of
bearing it, but can shift the burder to
others with the result that there is
no serious obstacle to transactions.
The Jiji urges the government to
make clear to the public its reasons
for wishing to impose the gold stand
ard.
For Joint Police Work
The Japanese government is about
to enter upon negotiations with the
Chinese government, says the Hochi,
to conclude an agreement for the
of order in he boundary
districst of Korea and Manchuria.
The draf of the agreement has al
ready been handed to the Peking gov
ernmn and negotiations will be open
ed soon.
The principal points of the new
agreement will be as follows: (D
Chinese authorities will be responible
for controlling malcontent Koreans
in Chinese territory; (2) Japanese,
are 'rsponsible for guard
ing against any disorder of Chinese
bandits in Korea; (3) prohibition Of
arms and war supplies.
Would Loan to Railroad
According to dispatch from Pc
King a formal loan contract in con-
1ection with the Kirin- Huining rail-
way, provisional contract of which

Balance to the boxer, is ike form

it is the follow through motion Of

After acquiring a good left jab
and learning the great value Of
balance, the question of developing
right cross enters into the propo-
Sition-
There are really only two great
punches in the boxing game, left
jab and a right cross.
Left Jab is the Rudder.
The left jab is the rudder, ii
guides the way. and opens up the
possibilities for the right cross.
Seldom is a fighter knocked out
through the medium Of a left jab.
The right cross to the point of the
jaw is the sleep producer.
However the left jab is invaria-
bly, the means of making an oppon-
ent an easy mark for the right
cross. The left jab is the decoy,
the right cross is "go-getter."

league about 800. 900. II was ruled
that President Johnson had ex-
ceeded his authority. A lot of in
functions were secured, and Mays
through court order was able to
play.
This controversy over Mays
caused a split in the American
league. On one side was the New
York club supported by CoHi+sky OF
Chicago and Frazee of Boston The
other five clubs lined up with John
son.
The split caused the three Ameri-
can league owners to line up with
the National league in a demand
that baseball get a new form or
government. The other FIVE loyal
clubs were forced to give IN. Pres
ident Johnson was characterized as
a GEAR"

Judge Lands as the supreme
GEAR of baseball was the new form
OF government that came out of the
Carl Mays case. The owners OF the
New York club created She condi-
ton by defying baseball law as laid
down by President Johnson.
Then Babe Ruth enters on the
scene and plays exhibition games
after being told by Judge Lands
that he had no such rights.
The judge who secured his job
as the result of the Mays case, slips

Roy Grove Declares They Are Re.
spOnsibIe for Condition That
Exists.
BY ROY GROVE.

Buffalo, N Y, Dec. 9.-open de-
fiance of baseball law is ging to
prove mighty costly TO the New
York American league club.
Owners Rupert and Huston
were the original culprits. Babe
Ruth played the leading role in the
climax.
Several years ago, Carl Mays,
then pitching for the Boston Red
Sox, quit his team in disgust His
exit came near the close of a game
in Chicago in which things were
breaking badly
Mays. in a statement, said he
was tired playing with a losing
team He went even further and
said that he would never play
again until traded with a club that
was up in the race.
President Johnson of the Ameri-
can league, indefinitely suspended
Mays for his actions He rendered
a decision, saying that Mays must
play with the Boston club if he
cared to continue in the American
league.
The GrOh Decision
Last year Judge Lands was COM
PEELED to render a decision in the
Groh case which was very similar
Groh said he would not play with
the Cincinnati club; that he must
be traded.
Manager McGraw of the New
York club was ready to take Grot
Immediately. Judge Lands ruled
that Groh must finish the season
with Cincinnati. The other day
Groh was traded to New York
proving that McGraw was ready tt
assume his contract last year.
Judge Lands was appiauded fol-
his decision m the Groh case. The
Groh case was not nearly so flag
rant an offense as that of Mays
Did the New York owners ap
pIaud Johnson, when he ruled tina
Mays must continue with the Rec

bringing Mays to New York? They

COLLINS STILL LEADS.

Tn<picking an All-American base
ball team, there is one position that
stands out as easy to decide on,
second base. Eddie Collins is still
the premier at that position, despite
over a dozen years of campaigning
Some give Rogers Hornsby the
preference over Collins, but it isn't
based on sound reasoning. Only at
the bat is Hornsby superior to Col
Inns, and then only by slight mar
gin. In a pinch, Collins is just as
dangerous as Hornsby at the plate.

There have been a lot of great
fighters. some of them champions,
who could hardly be classed as in.
tellectual giants, yet brains is a
most valuable asset.
Often a fighter develops a good
left and right hand, but lacks the
brains to make the greatest use or
his power. There is where the
fellow with brains has the advan-
tage. A manager can instruct his
boxers in the art, but he cannot
think for them in the ring.
1t is after a bout starts that the
value of brains makes itself ap-
parent. If a boxer discovers that
his opponent has a good left hand,
he must use his right to counteract
it. If his opponent is noted for j
right cross, he must try to offset
its value with snappy left jab.
The champion boxer is the fellow
who uses the weapon that win pro-
duce results
Health is greatly to be desired.
Courage is most essential. Brains
is valuable. All three, however
are soon rendered void, unless the
boxer has good habits.
