PAGE TWO | THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, MAY 11, 1920 -FOUTRALL EXPERT NEWSPAPER MAN Londen, Eng, May 10.~Charleg M. Buchan, the famous English in- ternational football player who 1s "joining the sporting staff of, the Daily News and Westminster Ga- zette, and will begin his journal- istic duties in June, is no mew- comer to the profession of writing for the press. Tus aaily footbatl lessons in the Daily News and West- minster Gazette during the past sea- gon are regarded as having pro- vided the best tuition ever given by a well-known footballer in a newspaper. He has shown clearly how the game should be played. emphasizing the finer points, and developing the possibilities for all budding aspirants of the funda- mental advice he has given. Charles Murray Buchan, who 1s retiring from active football, was born at Plumstead in 1891, and entered senior football while still a pupil 'at the Woolwich Polytech- nic' Secondary School, The tales of his prowess in those early days make his development into one of the finest forwards in modern foot- ball only a logical sequence, He assisted the Arsenal while still at school, and, after playing in the Kent league, became a profession- al at the invitation of Leyton. In 1911, before he was 19, he signed on for Sunderland, with which club he remained for 14 seasons. Be- fore coming south again as cap- tain of the Arsenal in 1925, he had scored over 200 goals, while the number he has inspired in oth- er forwards is legion. To see this tall, angular figure dribble the ball down the fleld has becomre ome of the chief delights of the game. Buchan has played in four inter- nationals, and last year led the Arsenal in the Cup Final, his first appearance in the Final having been for Sunderland at the Crystal Palace in 1913, "His ability as a strategist is equalled only by his powers as a team builder, and it is in him that Arsenal have found the lever to lift them out of the danger- ous position in which they found themselves three years ago.

Addressing the delegates of the American Peace Society, under whose auspices the conference 1s being held this week, Sir Esme Howard expressed the opinion that as the powers beome more accus- tomed to the idea that wars belong to a past and barbarous age they will undoubtedly be able to dis- card their naval and military arm- aments entirely, but this will be accomplished little by little, he d. The British ambassador criticiz- ed those journalists--who try to "keep allve public interest in the drama of human nature" by con- stantly predicting wars, "There is more joy on earth over two sinners who break each oth- er's heads than over ninety and eight just men who keep the peace," he asserted. "This is then, I am convinced, one of the princi. pal obstacles in the way of educat- ing in the ways of peace." The attitude of the daily press, so far as news values are concern- ed inevitably means "flaming head- lines" to announce even the remote possibility of a conflict of some kind, whereas if the cause of trou- ble is removed by negotiations this hardly receives any notice iu the back pages, said the speaker. But he hastened to lay the blame for this not on the press, but on some "inherent kink in the brain of hu- mranity." "In spite of the journalists who are always predicting wars,' he sald, "every year that passes sees an improvement in the European situation, Nowhere in Europe to- day is there more impressive evi- dence of a desire for peace than in Germany, but it is well, so long as wars and rumors of wars have not dled away, not to discourage all preparation for defence. Apparently W, T. R. Preston's initials do not stand for "Won the Round' Preston.--Chatham News, = WHEAT CRASHES IN CHICAGO PIT Early Advance of Two Cents Followed By Downward Rush Chicago, May 10.--A erash In the grain market today knocked the price of wheat down 53% to 6% cents, shaking bulls to their heels. Thomas Howell was credited with leading the selling of wheat, but nobody wanted to take the other end of it, The blow fell on the market afterit had advanced a couple of cents from a lower open- ing. This happened early in the day, and never again was wheat able to get up. At the end prices were close to the bottom, with May wheat that sold at 1.71% only a dozen days ago down at the hum- ble figure of $1.52. Such wrenching readjustment of speculative positions as was forced by the decline often put the tech- neial condition in a position as sensitive to buying as it was to selling before the break. The action of the market seemed to indicate that the Government estimate of a winter wheat crop of 479,080,000 bushels was far larger than longs had supposed it would be, Rains in the Western winter wheat belt also helped the decline along. The panicky rush to get out that followed, obliterated all sense of value for the time being. The only object was to sell wheat and stop losses that were mounting:as the market declined, The wheat market has become Diamond Jubilee : SIMCOE ST. UNITED.
