Soviet Representatives Will Have Concessions for Barter at Hague

HUGHES WEDDING FIRST HARDING CABINET ROMANCE

By S. D. WETSR t$TFr CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE THE HAGUE, June It. Soviet Russian representative In the International conference which will be open here on Thursday will be prepared to offer concessions for commercial exploitations worth approximately a billion dollars, provided conditions are satisfactory to the Moscow government. It was learned today from a source believed to be reliable. These concessions deal with minerals, railway construction, agricultural development and timber. The vanguard of the economic experts who will participate in the

conference on Russian reconstruc- j tion has already arrived here.

This will be more of a business and less of a polltica.1 meeting than the one at Genoa. This explains

why Premier Lloyd George, George j Tchitcherin. the Russian commissar j for foreign affairs, and other j statesmen who were at Genoa decidled not to come to the Hague. It Is doubtful if the United States' bss much influence in the confer-' enee proper, although the Russians are anxious to get in touch with American financiers and business

men for heart to heart talks on what Russia needs, what she is prepared to offer and the guarantees she will give for funds. There are a number of prominent American bankers In Europe at present. J. . P. Morgan Is In England, and Otto Kahn and Frank

They had been warned at Genoa what to expect. They feel that the conciliatory policy of Great Britain will offset to some extent the hostility of France, although they admit that the antiRussian bloc composed of Franco, Belgium and the United States will make a' solution of the Russian problem most difficult.

A drastic change in the policy of the Detroit club as well as a shifting of conditions generally in baseball, is indicated in Ty Cobb's action in asking for waivers of "Pep" Young, second baseman. During Hugbt) Jennings' reign ns manager of the Tigers the team became Known principally as a ?!uggine, ball ' murdsnng team. Only men who could kill the ball every third trip to the plate were wanted in the lineup. Wee Donie Bush was -bout the only man who couldn't hit at a terrific Dace to invade the team of sluggers as a regular. His wonderful playing at short and his ability as a sacrifice hitter made him the one exception. But Ty Cobb has shown several times that he is out to make a well balanced ball club from every

angle out of the Tiger team. And one thing he wants is a stonewall , infield. Therefore, despite Young's ability to hit he will be missing ; from the infield this year. Cobb plans to start the season -rith the ; veteran George Cutshaw, formerly with the -Phillies, at the second sack. Later, when Rigney. a rookie, gets accustomed to his hortstopping job, Cobb hopes to

try out a youngster at second. The move in ousting Youn" is indicative of the i neral change in sentiment regarding hitting. After the wave of slugging of the past few seasons big league managers and moguls are all convinced that less slugging and better all around baseball is needed. The majority of the winter changes made by the big league clubs were made to strengthen the fielding rather than the batvinf streneh of tha clubs affected. "We hear chatter that Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills, negro challenger, may clash in e. London ring this coming summer. Dempsey's coming trip across the pond and the general opposition to a match between the white champ and colored aspirant in the U. S., are the main grounds for this rumor, probably. The idea is mere tails of course but it brings to mind the fact that England never has had a colored fighter of prominence and has ha4 few mixed battles. The last white-negro boxing bout planned in London was to have been between Jack Johnson and Bombardier Wells. Johnson had just won the world's heavyweight crown by beating Jim Jeffries. Wells was at the height of his fame then. His weakness hadn't come to light. A bout between Wells and "Little Arthur" looked good. But the opposition that finally developed caused promoters to halt plans for the battle. Sme time later efforts to match Johnson and Sam Langford fizzled. It was said at the time t Johnson wasn't enthusiastic about facing Langford who was in his prime at the time. No one ever doubted Sam's ability to bit, cot even Jack.
