other in a Yankee uniform would be
barely tolerable. Yank officials prob
ably realize this also. for the Collins
deal was barely cold when negotia-
tions with Connie Mack were opened,
looking toward the shunting of Ward
and Meusel to Philadelphia. The
Yankees wanted Jimmy Dykes and
Connie intimated that they could have

of first string pitchers in addition to
Ward The deal back fired and with
cut further notice.
Few Suitable Trades.
Subsequently. IL was planned 70
place Ward and Meusel in the open
market. This also was dropped when
it was realized that outside of Cleve-
land, washington and perhaps De-
troit. no other American n league clubs
would make suitable offers.

trading material. the Brow ms could

It would, therefore, seem that the
Yanks must do business with the Sem
ators, Athletics or White Sox and of
the three. the original proposition 70
send Ward and Meusel to Chicago is
the most plausible. AS a matter of
fact, this deal has never been dropped
altogether. Both clubs have gone too
far for that and IL is the opinion of
baseball men that the trade will be
consummated. in one form or an

TRADE INCREASING

MOSCOW, jan. 2S.-There is
bound to be an ever increasing
amount of foreign trade in Russia

opinion of Adolph Tordy, of Pitts,

There's no doubt; that the soviet

of her present problems will CORE It

be famine. There's enough food in
Russia, if its distribution can be eff
fected.
Russia has not been exploited.
She only needs to start to work.
She's far richer than til western
countries of Europe. Germany was
far worse off than Russia, when the
world war ended, but she ST aated to
work, and that is why she will get
along Despite what may be lid,
Germany and England are, doing
business here, and will do NOR
"Russia's finances are con'1lc
by the Jews, and this is a h,ooeful
fact, as they are excellent bal nlers.
The new national bank has even
taken back the old name the 'Esus-
sian Imperial bank for its daily ,,esS-

fact shows how the tide sets.

Misery and Suffering
Distress Vladivostok

TOXIC, Jan. 28.-Misery and suf-
fering in Vladivostok among the
Russiaa population is greater now
than at any time since the over
throw of the Tsarist government.
Thousands of people are out Of work,
they have no food and most of them
are scantily clad. To make matters
worse f'rnI nrices gre excrbitant.
The above conditions are described
in a letter from Mrs. Pray, local
representative to the officials of
the American Red Cross chapter in
Toxic.
Some time ago the chapter issued
an appeal to its members and as a
result a fund of about 500 yen has
been raised. They want only cash
contributions and their plan is to use
the money in the purchase of ma
terials from which the Russian ref
ugees will make fancy needlework.
Samples of this work are now on
their way to Japan, and the ladies'
of the local chapter of the Red Cross
will take orders for this work and
forward the funds to the Vladivos-
tok relief workers. 1t is the inten-
ton of those . directing the relief
work to make the Russians earn by
producing. The committee intends
to find the market for the produc-
ton and furnish the initial capital.
