cousin Theodore to Be Put on Trail
Of Cousin Frank.
Chicago, Aug. IA. - Important
changes In the general plan of the
republican national campaign are
about to be announced, according to
information that comes from the ma
tionni h"Hdquarters at the Auditor
ium hotel.
4u~ -,.ong possibility that full
suffrage is to be established in the
nation thru the ratification Of the
nineteenth amendment in time for all
OF the women of the nation to vote
at the November election is re-
sponsible in the larger part for the
conferences that are, now on as to
the changes in the conduct of the
presidential battle. u
The defiance that was thrown to
the republicans by Franklin D..
Roosevelt in opening the democratic
western campaign, when he said that
he is out to round up the progress
sive vote for the Cox-Roosevelt ticket,
is likely to produce the second
change.
Senator Harry New, head of tho
republican speakers bureau, an
nounced that Lieut.. Col. Theodore
Roosevelt is to take the trail of his
NTH cousin once removed and urge
the support OF Harding and Coolidge.
Well show them the difference
between real Roosevelt and Frank
lin" Senator New commented. We've
got the real Roosevelt"

ANOTHER PROMISE OF DROP.
Bumper Crops Said to Presage Lower
Iivino Costs.

Washington, Aug. 14.-Some drop
in prices Of foodstuffs. as a result Of
bumper American crops, is predicted
by A. w. Douglas. chairman of the
committee on statistics and stan
dards, United States Chamber Of
Commerce, in the monthly bulletin.
Receipts of grains at primary
points have not been heavy, according
to Mr.. Douglas, largely due to lack Of
cars. yet prices have been lowering
because Of great surplus. which.
sooner or later, must find not only a
domestic but foreign market.
There is no longer, any. question
as to an abounding harvest in all man
ner OF agricultural products" the re-
port says. 1.-THE winter wheat crop
will be about 535, ,Ooo, 900 bushels and
100000 bushels.
with few more timely rains
there will he 5000, 900 900 bushels of
corn, Of which the southern states
will furnish about one-third. Texas
has the greatest corn crop in its his
tory, while Kansas has the unusual
accompaniment of large corn and
wheat yields in the same season.
There will be plentiful supply Of
other food products-grain tubers.
forage, fruits, and vegetables, for,
man and beast. The wheat surplus in
Kansas alone. from last season. Is
over 100,000,o00 bushels and requires
100000 cars to- move it, or about 4
per cent of all freight cars in \ the
country.
Shipments from southern points of
fruits and vegetables average about
Is, 900 cars weekly, and are gradually
bringing down the prices Of these
table necessities. once regarded as
merely delicacies and luxuries.'

Hope for Diplomatic Peace.

By Associated Press.
Washington, Aug. 14.-Replies from
both Great Britain and Italy to the
American note on the Russian-Po-
lish situation are expected soon by
state department officials. A sum-
mary Of the French rejoinder was re-
ceived here today and the full text
will follow soon.
In the opinion Of administration Of
ficials, as expressed today, the an
swer Of the allies will spring from
desire to reach a common policy on
a question regarded as the gravest
with which the world has to deal.
1t also was suggested, officially,
that the replies of Great Britain and
France would offer opportunity for
those governments to smooth out
whatever difficulties have been de-
veloped between them since the dis
patch of the American note and the
recognition by France of General
Wrangel as the head of the south
Prussian government.
The French reply, as outlined in
the official summary received today,
was understood to be highly salts

League at chautauqua.
Special to Times Republican,.
Toledo, Aug. 1.-THE debate
scheduled between Senator Hitchcock
and Governor Allen at the Central
Chautauqua yesterday afternoon and
evening brought considerable disap-
pointment by reason OF the action of.
the republican central committee in
canceling the date for Governor Allen
and sending him elsewhere. Senator
Hitchcock, however, made his appeal
for the Wilson league and the demo-
cratic party in the afternoon and was
entertained at dinner in the even
ing. The place Of the governor was
filled by speaker from Indiana.
Senator Hitchcock made a pleasing
platform appearance and delivered
his speech in a very modest way.
While his speech was given close at
itention and well received it failed to
enthuse the audience to any ap-
preciable extent.
The audience which greeted the
speaker yesterday was said to num-
.ber almost 1000 less than the one
drawn by an orchestra the evening
previous. ~

Months to Quit.
9 ashington, Aug. 14.-David R.
.ncis. American ambassador to
5 ssia, predicted at the White House
at the soviet government at Mos
Sw would go to pieces in six months.
9e made the prediction with conf
Nence born Of his knowledge of con-
ditions in Russia.
MIR. Francis said that when the
Russian people understood, thru the
medium OF Secretary Coby's note of
last Tuesday, that there was no in
tention on the part OF the United
states government to interfere with
Russia's conduct of her own affairs,
and that 1t favored a united Russia,
the effect would be detrimental to
bolshevist rule.
Mr.. Francis came to Washington at
the request of Secretary Colby, whose
personal guest he is, to advise in re-
gard to the Polish Russian situation.
Mr., Francis is still nominalIy the
1fnerlcan ambassador to Russia, al
tho ne was never accredited to any
OF the present governments.
only 10 per cent of the Russians
We're bolshevists, said Mr.. Francis.
and he expected the majority of the
anti-bolshevist population to assert
itself against the Lenine-Trotzky
regime when it was understood that
the allies had no intention of inter-
fering with the maintenance of Rus
sian nationality.
Advices today lead military officers
to believe that Tho bolshevists W.
soon launch an attack upon Rou-
manians to regain Bessarabia, which
the Roumanians have occupied.
Roumania has warned Moscow to
withdraw its forces, This warning is
supposed to apply to Bessarabia,
where the bolsheyists have some
troops.
Officials are awaiting with interest
the receipt of the note which, ac-
cordinB to press dispatches from
Paris, the French government is
forwarding to the United States.
These dispatches state that this com
municatfon is based on Secretary
Colby's declaration of the American
policy in dealing with Poland and
Russia and that it expresses graft
fication that the American and
French positions are in accord.
This government is still silent on
the question of how far it will go ii,
carrying out it's pledge Of support to
Poland by all available means"
Secretary Colby has been asked to
interpret this phrase. but has not
done so.
