NEW WAR HANGS OVER WORLD
IF THE REDS CRUSH THE POLES
GREAT CORN CROP is
SEEN IN THE MAKING
August Is the Critical Month In Bel,
OF Middle West and Records
May Stand.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA g.
90 900. 900 bushel corn crop for the
third time in the history OF the coun-
try was forecast today by the depart
ment of agriculture on the basis Of
conditions existing August 1. In as
much as August Is the critical month
for the crop in the great corn belt
or the Middle West. ii is uncertain
whether the promise of crop al
most equal to the enormous ones OF
provement was reported during July
in the important corn states with
the exception of Illinois. and as re-
suit crop forecast 224.OOO,OOO
bushels larger than that predicted
July / was issued.
Spring wheat was adversely affect
ed during July, principally by rust.
and the production forecast OF the
crop was reduced $4,000, 900 bush
els from month ago. or to a total Of
2S2, 100000 bushels. The prelimi-
duction was 100000 bushels larg-
er than forecast in July. making the
combined crop of winter and spring
wheat only 100000 bushels
smaller than estimated month ago.
The total OF 795,0OO.OOO bushels was
predicted in today's report
There was improvement in the po-
tato crop, and indications are that
the crop will exceed 100000 900
bushels for the fourth time in the
country's history.
The tobacco crop. which has been
promising from the start. has shown
additional improvement and proba-
bilities are that 1t will exceed the
record crop, produced in 1918. by
about 2OO.O00.OOO pounds. Total
production is forecast at 4,O0O,-
poo pounds.

EX-EMPRESS LEADING
THE LIFE OF AN INVALID
Has Undergone So Much Distress She
Is Suffering From Aggravated
Heart Attacks.

DOORN. Holland, Aug. 12.-The
former German empress. Auguste
Victoria. has undergone so much dis
tress during the past two years that
she has suffered for several months
from aggravated attacks of heart dis
ease. Recently she has been leading
the life OF an invalid. She has had
milder attacks of this malady for
many years.
At the house OF Doom, where.
surrounded by staff of her own
Berlin servants. and attended almost
constantly by Countess Kellar-for
many years her lady in waiting-she
has recently been so completely in
disposed that she has at times been
unable to walk and has not for a long
time been permitted to walk up or
down the stairs. A special elevator
was built for her use.
Those familiar with the inner life
OF the former emperor's household
since the flight from Potsdam to
Holland declare that while William.
consoling hemself with religion. has
been more or less OF a stole. the for
mer empress has suffered great mem
tai distress and has felt severely the
separation from her children.
From the time she arrived at Ame-
rongen, in November. 1918. she has
suffered continually. Now and then
she was the victim of heart attacks
so severe that she was confined to her
bed for several days at a time.
In the spring of 1920. when the
Knapp revolution in Berlin was fol-
lowed by an urgent demand that the
former emperor be closely guarded
the life OF the eXiles became more
constrained and Auguste's ailment
more pronounced.
She was constantly under the
treatment OF DR.. Haehner. a Berlin
physician. who is a member OF the
former emperor's staff and, also. a
noted Dutch specialist in heart dis
eases, from, Utrecht. was called into
consultation.
He decreed that she must lead a
very quiet life and IL has been no Sc
cret at Doom that in May and June
of this year the former empress SUI
fered such violent attacks that her
life was despaired OF. On these oc-
casions. the former crown prince and
such Others OF the Hohenzollerns who
were within easy reach were sum-
moned 10 her bedside.
At Doom. everything has been
done to avoid disturbing the former
kaiserin. News or information that
might tend TO excite her. has been
kept from her. She has never been
left entirely alone. II she has been
able to walk in the garden. attend
ants were in easy call
