derful brand of basketball the Wilson
Cleaners of Richmond defeated the
Boston Independents on the local floor
in one of the fastest and cleanest
games played here this season, by the
score of 21-17.
Both teams were handicapped by
the slick floor which had been waxed
the night before for a dance, making
it difficult for the players to stand on
their feet.
The game was nip and tuck from be-
ginning to end, neither team being
assured of a victory, the score alter
mating back and forth several times.

sticks to 1t that he has not seen or

the story and told the sheriff that

have not been apprehended, how

sorry that he broke Jail and thus far

American holiday Is widespread.
Large public meetings are being ar

| hundred and eighteen, an entire
world. weary and worn, bent under
| the disaster of the worlds war,
| knelt in thanks to God. The guns
| ceased booming. The roar Of their
firing no longer smashed around the
world in terrible thunder. A new
| note was in the air, high, clear and

hope was in every heart, a hope and
prayer that the fighting Of nation

| Three years have passed We
are about to celebrate the third an

the last time, the runner dashed
across the field of death and carried
to the farthest outpost the order

| In spirit and thought to that grand
| moment. We want to recall, in full.
the purpose common to every one at
| that moment to do each his or her
/ share to make impossible, ever again,
such disaster. Let us do this in
celebrations that will include every
American citizen.
I'VE want to recall the thrill that
came to each Of us, whether at the
front or at home, in the knowledge
that we had done our duty. We
want especially to turn aside from
the routine of daily life and to re-
member the sacrifices of those whose
pride Is that they gave of their dear
est and best, and Of those among us
torn and crippled, who gave Of them
selves. These are our heroes-our
living monuments to American ideals
to American principles, to American
citizenship.

Company, has stimulated and, encour-
aged the American colony here. Indi-
vidral Americans have created local
American firms in association with
Egyptian business men to promote
trade with America and have created
the organization necessary to handle
the interests Of American manufac-

every effort to assist American busi-
ness interests to meet the keen Euro
pean competition and to maintain the
enviable position secured during the
past few years. Z
Prior to 1914, the United States was
commercially a small factor in
Egypt's trade. During the war when
Egypt was cut off from the manufac-
turing centers f,Central Europe and
the Egyptian importer turned 10
America and Japan, American goods
flowed into Egypt and the buying pub
lie became familiar with American
products. This marked the first step
in the development Of Americas trade
with Egypt.
War prices for cotton greatly en-
riched the country and America bene-
hted by the increased importations Of
Injuries, especially Of automobiles and
/ by q good business in wheat and -four.
The enormous increase in business
compelled the American tire manufac-
turers to buy large quantities OF the
long staple Egyptian cotton, importing
in 1919-1920 over $4,000 bales. The
English coal strikes brought big coal
| contracts to America. Thus in a few
years America was ushered in as the
opportunist to play an important role
in Egyptian trade.
BY 1919, American exporters real
ICED somewhat the Importance Of the
Egyptian market. and some export
houses established branches in Alex
andria and Cairo. Inexperience and
tile world crisis combined to defeat
these attempts of the American ex-
porters in many cases, but interest
has been aroused and American trade
is active in keeping its foothold.

vate hospitals not established prior to
July L, l9l7, and with all Others found
to be unsuitable was included among
administrative reforms in veteran re-
lief activities recommended by the spe.
cial Senate committee investigating the
subject in report published to-day,
the second complied by the committee
in its vet uncompleted task.
Declaring the need of hospital con-
struetion was unquestioned, the com
mittee recommended nm appropriation
OF sl6 100000 for this purpose and in
addition that all government hospitals
including soldiers homes not needed BY
the army or navy, be turned over to
the veterans bureau.
Asserting the governments had failed
to obtain results commensurate with
the large expenditures in rehabilita-
tion work the committee reported with
deep regret lHe intfNbtffolt INT
that out of total Of 256,O00 approved
applicants for vocational training up 10

habilitated; l0s,000 having entered
training up to that date OF the $4,000
eligible for training without pay who
have not entered training, the commit
tee found that vast majority" had
not done so because of their inability
to support themselves without pay"
The chief recommendation of the cont
mittee in the vocational phase of the
work was Standardization of training
courses, while permitting the applicant
to select as far as possible his own vo-
cation.
Other administrative reforms recon-
mended by the committee included IS
