San Francisco, July 3.--The Canal
zone was given two votes, making q
total of 1904. The number necessary
to nominate is 729 1-3.
The third ballot resulted: McAd0o,
1923 1-2; Cox, 1T; Palmer, 252 IL.
Just before convention predictions
were made that nomination would
come without protracted struggle.
Just as Harding's name filled the air
as the probable Republican nominee
cn the final day of the Republican
convention, so McAdoo's appeared In
ascendency today, with the difference
that the Ohio candidate had. been
agreed upon, while McAdoo support
ers still had to fight stubborn oppo.
s.tion, with no definite assurance OF
success. Friends Of Palmer and Cox
took into account the reported Nc
Adoo strength, but expressed no fear
that he could win the nomination In
the face of opposition Of some Of the
party leaders. Palmer and Cox men
would concede nothing. The McAdoo
men admitted their candidate had op-
position, but pointed out 1t was not

WESTERN FARMERS
MAY HAVE TO HOLD
CROPS FOR The LACK
OF TRANSPORTATION
(By Associated Press.)

Hutchinson, Kan, July 3.-Kansas
wheat growers have been warned by
conferees at meeting of railroad
men, farmers and bankers, that they
may have to hold 60 per cent Of the
new crop of grain in stacks or bins
on their farms, because Of lack of
transportation to the mills. There Is
a vast amount of grain from las:
years crop still waiting to be moved.
Since the conference, in response
to the appeal directed to the Inter
state Commerce Commission, the
commission has wired Secretary J. G.
Mohler, of the State Board of Agri
culture that 14,500 cars will be sent
to the midwest states. 1t has been
estimated that it wocld take 10000
cars to move the wheat from last
years crop still remaining In country
elevators and on Kansas farms. The
states immediate need Is $4,000 cars
to adequately handle the situation,
Secretary Mohler said. He has re-
ceived word that Kansas is to get
1000 cars.
When the present wheat harvest is
over, Kansas bankers will have ap.
proximately $1OO,OOO,OOO tiled up" in
1919 and 1920 crops. OF this amount
the bankers have advanced $65, 900, 900
Up to the present time, on crops that
have not been harvested. These were
figures given by ]. r. Anspaugh, sec
letary of the Kansas State Banker
Association at the conference. "The
security is good but the money Is hare
to get. 1t will strain every resourc,
to get through safely" said Mr.. Ans
paugh.
Even the possibility OF getting tn,
grain threshed was anything bu
hopeful, because Of coal shortage il
the wheat country.

Fans who were fortunate enough to
see the game staged by the Highland
ers and the Islanders yesterday after
noon saw by far the best exhibition
OF ball played on the local lot this
season. Both Haynes, who worked for
the locals and Crosse, pitching ace Of
the Daytona aggregation, were in fine
form and were found but for few safe
ties during the fourteen innings that
they worked In this department
Crosse had the edge on Haynes, Civ
ing up five widely separated bingles,
while Haynes was touched for seven. .
Spectacular fielding back of each
pitcher killed possible batting rallies
and made the extra innings necessary.
Son Brown, who last year was with
the Smoker aggregation, furnished a
real thrill when in the eleventh in
ming he made a real circus stop and
throw of Leibs hot grass cutter which
was labeled a clean single. Names
was there in more ways than one, too,
making beautiful one-hande top OF
Baksdrsdale's off-side throw in the
ninth for the third out and taking q
hard chance from Lorenzs bat in the
eleventh after hard sprint.
Meter side was able to shove 6
counter over until the sixth inning
when Daytona broke through th'
Highlanders' defense and counted on,

grocding out tc Barksdale. Felbel

the younger generations the so-called

Pointing out the need of finished

was a crime which nothing can JUS
t!fy."
THE intention of Congress and the
intent of the President was that there
could be no peace until we could
create situation where no such
was as this could re-occur. We can
not make peace except in company
with our allies. 1t would brand us
with everlasting dishonor and bring
ruin to US also if we undertook to
make a separate peace.
Thus to that which Mr.. Lodge, IT,
saner moments, considered "the
blackestt crime he and his party in
madness sought to give the sanctitJ
OF law; that which eighteen months
ago was of everlasting dishonor, the
Republican party and its candidates

We endorse the Presidents view o

its essential integrity, but we do nc
