Champion Lionized at a Sue
cession of Luncheons and
Receptions.
BY CHARLES #. MATHIsoN.

ATLANTIC CrTY, N. j.. May SACK
Dempsey. the worlds heavyweight cham
pion pugilist. has in the few days since
his arrival at this lively resort won the
title of champion social lion. The boxer
has not been able to do any active
training for the reason that he has no
sparring partners. Joe Benjamin, the
lightweight member of the Dempsey
stable, does the best he can, but he is
unable to bear the entire burden of
blocking the heavy blows of the con-
queror of Willard. AS result, Demp-
sey's work has been confined to skipping
the rope. shadow boxing. walking on the
Boardwalk and making speeches at So
cial functions.
Meantime Manager Kearns is securing
the country for sparring partners, but
seems to have difficulty in getting any
one to take the 1laces that Bill Tate and
Jamaica Kid filled at Toledo.
In this contingency the champion has
plunged into the social swim and rides
the breakers of society with the greatest
sang froid and eclat.
Dempsey attends from four to seven
each gathering.
He limits himself to thanking his en-
tertainers for their courtesy and prom
ises to do the best he can when he gets
into the ring with Carpenter.
The champion restricts himself to a
small portion of each course, but even at
that limit he seems to have increased In
weight during the few days he has been
here.
However. he contents himself with
the reflection that he will need all the
weight he can acquire for the hard
work In the hot summer.
why He Likes the Sea.
"The reason I like to train at the
seashore," said the champion to-day,
.'is because the cool sea breezes pre-
vent man wasting away under hard
work. 1t may be that salt water baths
are weakening in the case of some
boxers, but they are invigorating to
me. No one need worry about the salt
water making me weak.
Just as soon as Kearns gets back
here with sparring partners l will do
some boxing. It's a funny thing that
none of the boys want to help me train.

Brooklyn Needs Infielder.

With Branch Hickey in this city it is
expected that negotiations between the
Brooklyn and ST. Louis clubs will be
renewed. Wilbert Robinson Is after an
in1elder and he Is willing to let Jeff
Pfeffer go to the Cards. But there is
one drawback from the st. Louis side
Robbie wants nobody but Milton Stock.
the third baseman, for whom the Giants
offered $4,000 last season and might
give a similar amount right now.
It's safe to say that Stock will remain
with st. Louis. He just has jumped into
the lineup and is doing well. Janvrin
has gone to the bench, and 1t may be
that Robbie will find him acceptable. At
any rate. Brooklyn needs substitute
second baseman in a big hurry. Kill
duff's leg is bothering him too frequently
and Robbie cannot afford to use Myers
at second-for Hy is not an infelder,
and besides he Is needed in centre field.

increases will show Up bigger because of the enhanced
purchasing power of the American dollar.
In exports crude materials decrease from Sl,sos.
Ooo. 900 TO 81, 2SS, 0oo, 900, the two years compared.
4 falling off in sales to other countries, which have
become fairly well stocked with American erudes, was
somewhat balanced off by increased purchases on the
part OF Germany, which has now developed good run
ming heat in the manufacturing industries. crude
foodstuffs increased from s626. 900, 900 to S97s,ooo,-
600. being the only group to show an increase over
1920. Manufactured foodstuffs fell off from si,514.-
600, 900 to 779,00o,00o
Petty manufactured gooSs decreased from sse1,-
O0o, 900 10 $685.. 00O, 900, while completed manufac-
lures showed a decrease from ,Ss5,0o0,oo to ST.
643. 600, 900, which, on the whole, gives a satisfactory
showing. since it could not be expected that our ex-
ports under this group could long retain their war
time figures.
Summing up the situation imports, decreased from
s5,23s, 900, 900 in 1920 to S3,654,0o0,0OO in 1871,
while exports decreased from s,10s.0oo.0o0 to So
sic 900, 600. This includes the miscellaneous group
and foreign merchandise exported.
The United States. can not without serious detri-
ment to domestic production absorb more than $780,
900, 900 worth of foreign products annually, for some
time to come, and under present conditions SS,OUo,-
600, 900 would be a better figure. Prior to the war
our foreign trade totaled slightly under S4,30o,0OO,-
600. of which about ~ per cent consisted OF imports
an Sc per cent of exports, The year just closed finds
that trade totaling over $40, 900, 900, 900 with Go per
cent exports and So per cent imports. A favorable
trade balance which in 1918, under Republican protec-
ton, totaled s65S, 900, 900, and SAT- 100000 under
the democratic tariff, reached s2,s62,00O,0Oo for
1921, or about the same as the balance for 1870
five times the pre-war average. The protective policy
may be depended upon to improve this showing in GER
tain aspects.
