BY one common, perhaps the most
common measure OF achievement In
the United States, Charles Spencer
Chaplin of HOLLYWOOD is more en-
titled to be running for President or
Vice President of the United states
today than IL of the 1S candidates
for those two Offices.
In other words. Mr.. Chaplin's ac-
complishment in creating laughter Of
all kinds. from refined gurgIes to
rude outlaws. has won him place
in the American Who's Who, while
the IL referred to above have yet to
achieve that recognition.
There is no other reason why Mr..
Chaplin should have been chosen as
a standard OF comparison in this
case than that he never can become
England. hence his inability to use
this story as a good campaign argu-
ment.
The minor parties, six Of them, by
token seem not to have followed the
political axiom that a party should
select as it's candidate not only a
man or woman OF achievement. but
one whose achievement has been
properly called to the attention OF
the voting public.
Major Candidates Safe.
The major party candidates, Cool
idge and Dawes, Davis and Bryan
and La Toilette and Wheeler. are
safely within the pages OF Who's
Who. Thus is their achievements as
vote-getters recognized.
The Republican, Democrat and In
dependent Progressive parties have
thus gotten the edge by naming
candidates of recognized achieve
ment. Political experts and even
mere casual observers agree that
their adherence to this simple polit-
victory for one of them in Noyem-
ber. Some, whose judgment is ex-
celIed only by their intrepidfty, as
sert that the lowest of the three
major parties will poll more votes
than all other six combined.
To the American party falls the
honor Of being the only one or the
infant sextet in American political
organizations to have chosen as its
found between the red covers OF the
national guide to go-getters who
have got.
He is DIR. Gilbert o. Nations Of
Washington, advocate of moral re-
form. who is carrying his penchant
into the political field as candidate
for the first time. DR.. Nations run
ming mate, L. L. Pickett of Kentucky,
is not to be found among the Picketts
in the book.
Drys Get No Mention.

didate for President, and Miss Marie
C. Behm. who would preside over the
Senate should the party be swept. or
even gently pushed, into victory,
whatever else they may have attain

Spring caused delayed planting and
unusually small acreage, he ex-
planned.

15.690.o0o bushels may be expected,
as against an average yield of 25,-
500. 900 bushels a year for the last
ave years. The potential farm value
Of this years crop is $1S,S51 900.

nee estimated.
While scorn crop conditions are
already worse than usual. early frosts
