INCREASE IN IMPORTATION
 OF MANUFACTURES

Importers of manufactures are the only American patrons of foreign pro- ducers who are emitting to cut down their imports in the fiscal year 1921. Manufacturing of material imported in cruce condition, says a statement by the. National City Bank of New York is in this fiscal year less than half in value that of 1920, manufactured for use in manufacturing also show a slow down and so do foodstuffs in crude condition, but manufactures req dy for use and foodstuffs in manu- factured condition, show increases. The total value of manufacturing material imported in the fiscal year 1921, which ends with the current month, will be. but a trif1e over $1, 900 ,oe0, 900 against g, t42, ,o0e, 900 in the immediately pre- ceding articles for further use in manu- featuring will be but about $540, ,eo0, ,oeo against SSo1, 900 900 in 1920. Foodstuffs in crude condition will be but about s46o, ,Ooo, 600 against $622. 100000 in the immediately preceding year. It is in the manufactures ready for use and in manufactured foodstuffs that the i'm porters have increased their takings from abroad in 1921 as compared with 1920.
 To what extent this increase in inn portation of raw materials is due to a prospective change in tariff cannot of course be determined, though the general understanding, which his pre- vailed ever since the presidential el- ection of 1920, that a new and hgih- CT tariff law would be enacted, may probably have led many importers to lay in stocks of standard manufactures Wp3aA 31A& 0aaaad hc1nG thAm in at taA

rieaatlraed Wfth Umpire.

Norwich Bullatin Sporting Editor:
 I was a witness of the game at the Norwich fair grounds on Monday after noon when the Norwich Knights of Co., lumbus played the New London team. and if you will kindly allow me limited amount of rpace for few words I win say something about that which appar- ently impressed the crowd as it did me It was the umpire. He was simply ter rible, so much so that 1t took all inter- est away from che game.
 A man who sat next to me said his name was Mcintyre and that he had held the indicator at several of the local games If he has and performed the way he did Monday those games must have been good. Not only were his de- eisions on bases poor but his calling of balls and strikes was worse. Of course from the sidelines it is hard to tell whether ball goes ever the plate or not, but it is q cfneh that the man on the Ridelines has just as good a chance to tell whether they are above the shoulders or below the knees. A large number of l strikes called passed over the batter's head and some were only about the height of his shoes. In his pocr decisions he played no favorites the local boys get ting just as bad as the visitors and sometimes worse
 The crowd, especially the home crowd Is usually with the umpire when he makes poor decision against the visit ing team, but on" Monday the crowd wanted to see each team get all that was due them. It would seem that a man with a better eye for balls and strikes could be secured in a city the size
 of Norwich.

 And the inventor saw the tired, worn look of the housewife. removed the stove in the cellar and installed tin pipes from the central heater to the various rooms and then waited for applause and pur- chasers.-H. V. Walsh, in Architecture
