The plan for a League of Ma

principles, which are not hard
to understand when lifted out
of the morass Of technical discuss
sion and freed from legal and
diplomatic language. AS the
one authority best able to pre-
sent these points without par,
tlsan bias, ex-President Taft
has been asked to put the
league idea into a few plain
words for the benefit of millions
of Americans who desire bet
ter understanding of the plan
but find themselves confused by
the debate in the United States
Senate. in response to this le-
quest he has written the follow

The crop at 100000 equivalent to

Much interest centered in the report
in view of the recent attack on the last

duction has disclosed that in the nine.
teen years from 1900 to 1919 the bp-
reau of crop estimates December fig
ures have averaged 40 per cent low
sr than the census bureaus final pro
duction figures.
Last years crop was 12,o40,533
bales, the average for the five years,
ls13-17 was 12,S47 Jos bales and the
record crop, 1874, $50 bales, in 1914
The average gross weight per run

gross, compared with 505.6 pounds
