SOUTH ARE FEW Latest Information as to Califor nia crop conrlilioiiH on products of Interest here, follows; Prunes: Tho total crop of prunes for this year is estimated to be 65 per cent of a normal production, which indicates a crop of ap proximately 100.000 tons. The dry ing of prunes is ne.irly completed and a greater percentage of large sizes is reported than was previ ously expected. Peaches: The total peach crop tills year 1m cHtimated to be ti" per cent of a normal. This indicates a production of 2H5.00Q tons com pared with 3&0.000 tons produced in ion. Uoth tho dried and can ned tonnage was less than last year white shipments out of tiie at a were only about 00 per cent i great. This comparatively light crop was due primarily to the ah normal spring behavior of peach trees In many districts smith of the lehach.'ipl and late spring frosts which damaged peaches in eomc. localities In the San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys; although in some districts proper sizing fruits w;is prevented duo to short age of irrigation water. Walnuts: Tho walnut harvest is in progress, with yields In some lo entities falling short of earlier ex poctatlons. This accounts for i decline of 2 points In Ihe condl tion which in now estimated to be 80 per cent of a normal. A nrn. duction forecast, bused on the pres- iii outiooK, HHiicateH a croii of an- proximately 24,000 tons, compared with 25,000 tons produced a year ugo.

DAVIS ELECTED BY PROSPECTS IN TENNESSEE (Contiii'jeo t'om Page one. era tic nominee for president, told a gathering of Nashville business men last night that if radicalism some day swept the American people to unknown porta and des tinies it would "be because the dykes of conservatism have been so stoutly built that they gave to tho rising of the waters no outlet what ever but held against Ihem until the flood was immediate and destructive." "If you nre afraid of radicalism in this country you will not do It by throwing yourselves into the arms of reaction. There Is no re lief there." Mr. Davis spoke to an audience gathered In the chamber of com merce. Karlier In the day he had addressed a larger meeting at the Vnnderbilt stadium, making the outstanding feature of his address there an extended explanation of One Night Thursday, Oct. 23 Hnrry Davis Presents The Famous Star of the Silver Screen ELLIOT DEXTER (Himself) "THE HAVOC" The Story of a Man's Love That Would Not Be Denied (Not a Motion pinture) his attitude of the Washington armaments conference and tne naval limitation treaty. JlcdiK-e Tariff Hates In the evening address the can didate again promised . that he would, if elected, reduce existing tariff duties and would sec that the new law was written "with an equal eye on the need of the mnn ufaciuriTS upon the need of the laboring men, for the consumers of the country." Emphatic denial of charges that the democratic parly was destruc tive to business whenever In pow er, was made by Mr. Davis. "There is no party in these United States," Mr. Davis said, "that deliberately desires to injure American business and there is nothing in the program of the party I represent that holds for any legitimate business In this country any threat or menace what soever." The democratic nominee led into the subject of the Washington arm ament conference with the state ment that he has been criticized for "disparaging the purpose- and the results of the Washington con ference." He read from President Coolidge's letter regarding navy day and declared that the chief executive had, In that communica tion, been more disparaging of the conference "than I would have dared to sav." Washington Conference "I am ready and willing to give out conference credit for every thing thr.t it accomplished. I am ready to approve the fact that it was called and. In the mnin with some minor reservations, to ap prove Its results, but I am equally determined that the American peo ple shill not be misled as to Its wcope and Its importance, that they shall net be persuaded that it is the final answer to hum gieui i-- tion. or in the language i president himself, that It stands ampiig the revolutionary and ub lime achievements of the human race.'

I foundations a monetary system that knows no other equal, u candidate added. Issuo of Hoiuwly Turning to a discussion of cam paign Issues, Mr. Davis asked his audience to apply to them the Jacksonian test. "Call these gentlemen from Washington," ho said, "and ask them first of all: 'Have you been honeHt?' " Cries of "No, no," came from the stands and Mr. Davis replied: "That is not the answer they make. They say 'no, in spots,' " Mr. Davis said the Kordney McCumber tariff bill was the "most tainted statute ever writ ten." Snluvlules of tho law, Mr. Davis declared, were written by privil- eged and interested parties who re ceived high rates of duty on pro ducts in which they personally were interested. He attacked the "flex ible provisions" of the tariff act saying they gave unto the 'king's hands' the right to raise or lower tariff rates fifty per cent. The report ol the federal trade commission on sugar which had been given to President Cooliuge. recommending reduced tariff on that commodity, Mr. Davis add ed, had been ignored by the chief executive. "It looks as though nothing will be done with It be fore the presidential elections have passed," the nominee said, adding j that such practices as he charged appeared "peculiarly abortive in ! their effect upon the legislative processes."
