HARDING URGED TO GO DRY
PROHIBITION 5LEXTIOX IX AD
DRESS Sl'GGESTED.
"WASHINGTON. Jul 9. Forecasts
of heavy harvests of the country's
principal farm crops marked the July
report of the department of agricul
ture today. The prospective yield in
most Instances is larger than the
average production for the five years
1914-18, while tobacco and rice pro
duction promises to be the largest on
record, tobacco with 112,000.000
pounds more than the previous largest
crop and rice with 11.000,000 bushels
more than ever produced.
Compared with last year's output,
this year's winter wheat, rye, corn,
. sweet potatoes, peach and hay crops
give indications of being smaller.
Larger crops than last year are fore
cast for spring wheat, oats, barley,
white potatoes, tobacco, flax, rice and
apples.
Throughout June better weather
conditions increased the prospects of
the output of every important crop.
The improvement was reflected In a
forecast of 28,000,000 bushels In the
combined winter and spring wheat
crop than estimated a month ago;
seven million bushe1 more oats,
8,000,000 bushels more barley and
"2,000,000 bushels more rye.
Wheat Surplus Indicated.
The spring wheat crop is larger
than last year's by 82,000,000 bushels,
but the winter wheat crop Is 114,000,
000 bushels smaller, although it is
only 45,000,000 less than the five-year
average production.
Wheat of last year's crop remaining
on farms July 1 was reported as
47.756,000 bushels, or more than five
per cent of the crop. Tbat, added to
this year's prospective production,
makes available about 856,000,000
bushels of wheat which, according to
officials, will be ample to meet do
mestic requirements and eave a sur
pus for export.
The condition of the corn crop was
reported not so good as a year ago,
but the area planted shows an in
crease of 671,000 acres. Indications
are that the crop will be 138J0OO.OOO
bushels smaller but 19,000.000 bushels
larger than the five-year average.
Other Korecawts Given.
Production of corn was forecast at
3.779.000.000 bushels and the area
planted this year announced as 103,
648.000 acres.

J. Frank. Hanly Declares That Dry
Ticket Should Xot Be Put in
Field Next Fall.
MARION, O., July 9. Senator Hard
ing, the republican candidate for
president, was urged to take a firm
stand in support of national prohibi
tion in his speech of acceptance at a
conference today with J.Frank Hanly,
prohibition candidate for president in
1916. Later It was announced the
senator had not committed himself
regarding the ' matter while Mr.
Hanly said he hoped to be able to
support him, but "would wait to see
what the senator said in his speech."
Mr. Hanley denied that he came
to Marion to present the matter to
the republican nominee on behalf of
prohibition advocates, but said that
the conference was sought at hi
own instance. As a prohibitionist
he said he would find it difficult
to support Governor Cox and an
nounced he would not attend the na
tional prohibition convention to be
held in Lincoln, Neb., July 21, adding
he opposed placing a national prohi
bition ticket in the field this fall.
In view of the passage by congress
of the enforcement act and its sus
tention by the United States supreme
court, Mr. Hanly said the matter re
volves itself into the election of a
congress favorable to the mainten
ance of the present law."
Mr. Hanly explained, however, thi
was his own personal view and not
that of the Ohio senator, whom he
.said "made no comment."
Mr. Hanly said he favored the
prohibitionists placing their power
next November where it would do the
most good instead of nominating
their own presidential candidate.
Plans for officially notifying Sen
ator Harding of his nomination were
announced today following a confer
ence between the nominee and T.
Coleman Du Pont of Delaware, chair
man of the committee of arrange
mcnts for the republican national
committee, and Harry M. Daughtrey
of Columbus, the senator's manager
in the pre-convention campaign.
The event will take place at 2
P. M., July 22, in Garfield park, on
the outskirts of Marion, with Na
tional Chairman Hays presiding. Fol
lowing the singing of "The Star
spangled Banner" by the republican
glee club of Columbus, invocation
will be pronounced by Rev. T. H. Mc
Afee, pastor of Trinity Baptist church
of Marion, which the senator attends.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,
chairman of the notification commit
tee, will then deliver an address noti
fying the senator of his nomination
to which the nominee will reply.
Announcement was also made that
rmeetings of the republican national
committee and the committee on ar
rangements are to be held in Colum
bus on July 21.

"I am satisfied that the list fur

there must he evidence, or the high

character generally are tried by court
martial immediately after the event.
In this instance the procedure is
novel. Much of the evidence must
come from foreign countries. The
Germans are unable to rely upon
their own organization and must have
help from the allies."
Cabinet Balks on Occupation.
When the German delegates informed
the conference that they were not em
powered to agree to allied occupation
if the disarmament conditions were
not fulfilled. Premier Lloyd George
as spokesman said:
"We do not ask your agreement to
the penalties we reserve the right to
take in case of non-execution ot your
engagements. We simply warn you of
your intentions.
"It is notification we have given
you, purely and simply, of the meas
ures you may expect If you do not
disarm under the conditions specified.
To these conditions we ask your ac
ceptance, so as to adopt them with
common accord. To sum up, penalties
are for the allies alone, while we are
making disarmament a two-sided
matter."
War Guilty Trials Dlicuued.
The conference took up the ques
tion of German prosecutions of the
war guilty immediately after the dis
armament protocol was signed, but
soon referred the matter to experts
for clarification of certain details

Politics to Be Eliminated.
A broad and intelligent handling
of this question has been complicated
by those who have been agitating it
for selfish political purposes. This
handicaps us enlisting support in oth
er states and also in getting our case
fairly before the national govern
ment. So far as lies in my power, I
shall endeavor to eliminate this very
harmful feature in Caliornla's efforts
to bring about a solution of the ques
tion. 1 am resolved to deal with It In
way that looks only to the best In
terests of our state and of our coun
try.
"Some few years ago legislation
was enacted in this state prohibiting
aliens not eligible to citizenship from
owning farm lands. Provision was
made for leases in three-year periods.

'The Japanese have to some extent
circumvented the statute against land
ownership by the promotion of corpo
rations in which it is required that a
majority of the stock shall be held
by persons holding citizenship or eli

made to fulfill this requirement.
Guardianship of native-born Japanese
children is another favorite resort.
Considerable holdings are now in the
hands of Japanese, acquired through
the circumvention I have described.
"What has become the most acute
condition is the " leasing of farms by
the Japanese. In the last few years
there has been a tremendous develop

by Ambassador Herrick an nearly

touched the hearts of Parisians and
Americans alike as the parade of
more than 20.000 little French war or

A night of heavy rain which
stopped shortly before the parade
was to begin, watersoaked the ground
in the garden and made the march
ing difficult for the children, who
were arranged in groups represent

orphans, all dressed in spotless white,

who watched them from an impro

the smaller paraders were assisted by
representatives of "Fatherless Child
