I ! ; : ) i RECORD BREAKING CROPS T HE Department of Agriculture's monthly report of crop conditions on August I forecasts bumper crops except in wheat, and points out that the wheat crop in the yield per acre will probably equal that of the five years of the wJr, 1914-1918, the total production being smaller only because ofeithe limited acreage planted.

The United States, in the same assembly, controls about twice as many. 'ranklin D. Roosevelt, democratic nominee for vice president, declares that even were this1 propaganda about Britain's six votes vital, the little American republics, each of which has one vote in the assembly, would look' to the United States as their big brother. t j". ..;;. , ? .- The real power in the: league of nations rests not with this 'assembly, however There As a council of fhe league, in-which the United States, like Great Britain with all its component parts 'has just one vote. To make further -certain that no one nation controls this council, a vote on any matter must be unanimous, v "Old stuff" is the manner in which the vice presidential nom- 'Jnfee characterizes the effort of the opposition to break down league sentiment by the talk of inequality of voting power in ftrie league of nations.
