torture twist"

tWIots
Imagine this artists consterna-
ton when he arrived in a town
for match and found his oppo-
nent billed as the originator and
foremost exponent of the "termite
torture twist"
Under the treaty such sad mat
tiers will be done away with. A
Wrestler's muscle-child, so to speak,
will be his own, to cherish and fool
the public with until he retires
Furthermore, all Wrestlers will be
forced to give opponents complete
cooperation.
Champions will breathe easier
under the new treaty. And when
I say champions, mean all so
o. 60 of them. They will not be
deprived of their titles without
due and proper notice. Sixty days
notice will be given when a new
member is named to be tapped.
This rule not only will soften the
blow to the man to be deprived of
the purple, but also give his sue
cessor time to grow a beard befit-
ting worlds heavyweight wrestling
champion.
For after all, who wants a cham
pion without a beard?

SPORTS PARADE
By HENRY McLEMORE
BY HENRY McLEMORE

NEW YORK, Aug. 10. U.R)-To
the regret of many, the wrestling
war which has been going on for
a year or more has ended.
Many of us had hoped it would
go on forever or, if not forever,
at least until there wasn't man
left on either side.
But last week peace was effect
ed when the suave and sweaty
diplomats who handle wrestling
affixed their signatures of "X's"
to a treaty which future histOr-
ians will know as the deadlock
treaty" The pact, whose all
IA points read "therc shall be no
deliberate double crossing with
out full consent of all parties"
was signed in a han of mirrors.
The hall of mirrors was chosen
as a precaution against anyone
breaking the pact while waiting
to sign.

Much Of the dearth of buying was

BY the Associated Press.
A heavy movement Of American
goods abroad in October. the Com
merce Department announced today,
gave the United States today an
excess of exports over imports for the
year to date.
Starting the month with a 50,000,-
900 import balance for the year. this
country exported enough during Oc-
tober to give a s60,443,00o export
balance for the first 10 months Of the
year. At the same time last year. the
export balance was only .$ls,7S3.000.
October exports totaled 3,13s, 900.
the most for any month since March.
1880. The sum was IL per cent more
than in September and 20 per cent
more than In october. 1885.
Imports, meanwhile, declined 4 per
cent from September to $2243sl 900.
This was 6 per cent larger than In
October. 1885.
This years improved crop conditions
played an important part in the turn
of foreign trade, the Commerce De-
partment said While last year,
drought reduced American farm ex-
ports and increased farm imports, last
months big export total was made up
largely of shipments Of wheat, apples,
dry fruit and cotton Exports Of in
dustrial machinery reached the highest
figure since May. 1880, and other ex-
port increases were credited to iron
and steel products and automobiles.
Exports OF few items such as leaf
tobacco, motor fuel. wood pulp and
naval stores declined.
Imports of farn4 products, which
had increased since last years drought
to $45,O00,000 in June. declined in
October to less than $l9,000000. The
volume Of foreign corn coming into
this country showed one OF the most
important drops.
The Commerce Department esti-
mated American exports in the first
10 months OF the year totaled S2,7l2,-

night for the week, as S9,lo5 units

NEW YORK. Nov. 20 GP.-Opera-
lions in the steel industry for tho
current week declined IA points to
29.6 per cent of capacity, the lowest
point in the past three years. and COM
pared with $40 per cent last week.
the American Iron g. Steel Institute
estimated today.
A month ago operations averaged
48.6 per cent. while a year ago the
rate was 7s.9 per cent OF capacity.
The rate was last under the current
figure in the week of December 8.
1884, when IL was % per cert.
Trade circles said one of the prin-
cipal factors in the further weakening
OF the operating rate, which has been
under way since Labor Day, was the
failure OF automobile manufacturers
to take steel in the quantities expected
