HITCHCOCK ARGUES
FOR NATIONS LEAGUE
IN COLLEGE ADDRESS
tRy Associated Press)

DURHAM, N c.. June S-Present
international and domestic depression
Of commerce and industry is demon
strating the pressing necessity Of a
league of nations, Senator Hitchcock
of Nebraska declared today in an ad-
dress at the commencement of Trim
lty college. Referring to the stag
gering and unbalanced national bud
gets of both the conquerors and the
vanquished in the late war" he said
the United States was setting
wretched example for nations of the
world particularly by present mill
tary appropriations.
The economic situation, Sena tor
Hitchcock said. threatened the main
tenance of life for millions of the
worlds population, with consequent
damage to the business of the United
States
Interests Force Union
"On account of cotton and copper
and corn and wheat and manufacture
ers and shipping and other material
interests, we are to be compelled,
through selfishness, to adopt some
plan of cooperation with the nations
of the world" he said. Il should
have liked to have seen the United
States, under the leadership of Wood
row Wilson, enter the league of ma
tons. It was not to be. Like Moses
of old, Wilson made mistakes which
cost him success and cost him his
leadership.
LAS Moses of old smote the rock in
arrogant assertion of his own power,
so Wilson, in oTer-confidence of his
own strength as the champion Of new
ideals, charged upon the mounta ins
Of prejudice and materialism in his
path. He lost the fight and sacrificed
himse
From purely selfish motives we
will soon be forced to do very much
the same things that We would have
done from lofty motives if we had en-
tered the league of nations shortly
after the close of the war"

DRY WEATHER CUTS
TOBACCO ACREAGE IN
WEST OHIO COUNTIES

A survey of the tobacco situation in
Preble and Darke counties, Ohio,
shows a decrease in acreage, due
partly to the extraordinarily dry
weather and to some extent to the
recent price depression of this spring.
For the most part, however, reduc-
tions in acreage, which are variously
estimated at from 33 to 10 per cent,
are due to dry weather which made
conditioning of the ground difficult,
and discouraged farmers as to the
possibility of raising a good crop. In
some cases tobacco which had been
set out died, and others were hold
ing off while awaiting rain. Many
expressed the opinion that without
rain. fair crop would be impossible.
Ten per cent reduction from last
years acreage" was the prediction of
Frank Gazell, tobacco warehouse man
and government crop reporter in West
Alexa ndria, o. Dry weather was the
cause assigned by Mr.. Gazell
Estimates Acreage Two-Thirds
An estimate of two-thirds of for
mer acreage was the opinion of Harry
Slower, of Gratis, o. He stated that
farmers had been unable to prepare
the ground on account of the dry
weather, and had been doubtful of
setting plants before rain. However.
a good rain Wednesday morning and
afternoon, had relieved tobacco plant
ers of many worries, although it came
too late, Mr.. Stover thought, to allow
any increase in acreage.
A belief that there would be a gen
eral reduction in acreage of tobacco
was voiced by Mr.. E. Clark of New
Paris, president of the Preble county
farm bureau, although he could give
no estimate as to the amount.
Ground Not in Shape.
There will be less tobacco set this
year than last" said Frank Black
frod, of Eldorado, O., but l could not
say how much less" Mr.. Blackford
has eight and one half acres set,
which is doing well, but reports that
many neighhors have been unable to
get their ground in shape on account
of being so dry and hard.
Reports to the same effect were
given by Francis NanAusdal. of Lewis
burg, a section which is regarded as
good tobacco producing territory. Dry
ground according to Mr.. NanAusdal,
had hampered preparation, and is still
preventing setting of plants By farm
ers who are ready. There is still time,
however, should a rain come as plant
ing may continue until June 90.
