SWEET POTATO CROP
CURTAILED THIS YEAR

ATLANTA, August 92.-There's
a shortage of sweet potatoes, ac-
cording to the Georgia Bureau Of
Markets, of which L. B. Jackson
is director.
The crop estimate shows that
the present crop will lack but few
thousand bushels of being million
bushels Short Of last seasons crop.
When considering this shortage in
terms of ears shipped during the
season Of 1928, itself a short move
ment, only 698 cars, approximately
100000 bushels, Director Jackson
points out, it is apparent that in or
der to maintain even ttat movement
the present season, I'VE will have
to reduce our own consumption by
nearly a million bushels" quoting
his own words.
'In view of the situation" said
Mr.. jackson, "every one must real
ize the Importance Of taking great
pains in gathering this crop and let
nothing go 10 waste. We must keep
our commercial shipments which
bring the money back to the grow
ers.

ROYAL WELCOME:
AWAITING WALES
Prince VIII Occupy Splendid
Long Island Home of Bur
dens During Visit

NEW YORK, August 29.-The
Prince of Wales will land on Ameri-
can soil late this afternoon at eileen
Cove, Long Island, where a setting
for a royal welcome has been pre-
pared. The exact time of the
princes arrival is unknown.
The prince will proceed to the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. James Burden
which will be his headquarters while
here.
A member of the princes staff
who was interviewed today was anx-
ious that the private nature of his
royal highness' flying visit to the
United States should be emphasized.
"The prince is anxious that it
should be realized in the United
States that the short stay he will
make in Long island for the purpose
Of witnessing the international polo
matches is merely incidental to his
Canadian holiday, and that it will
not be possible for him to make any
public engagements, said the off
cial.
America interests the prince
very keenly and he is anxious to
make an extended tour there when
ever it becomes possible. He would
have liked to fulfill his ambition
really to see America next year,
and possibly would have done so
had it not been for the postpone
ment of his visit to South Africa,
which is now to take place in 1925.
He could not, of course, have trav-
elled extensively this year in the
United States, because of the presi-
dents election.
1T was only because the prince
suddenly realized that it would be
impossible for him to take in the
polo matches on his way to Canada
that he decided to alter his original
plan of going direct to Calgary. Be
cause his visit is an absolutely pri-
vate one he has virtually no plans.
ut is not likely that his royal
highness win be in New York City
at al. He win be taken off the Ber-
engaria atsauarantine and will make
the trip to Long Island on a steam
yacht. se

Der. Whether or not the reichstag
approves the Dawes bills, the gov
crnment will sign the pact of Lon
don, and go before the country on
that issue.
Scores Of amendments have been
offered, most Of them demanding
more substantial guarantees of evac-
uation of the occupied territories.
The nationalists have formally NOV
ed to compel the government to rep
udiate Germany's war quit which is
set forth in the Versailles treaty,
before accepting the Dawes pro-
posals.
The adjournment Of the reichstag
Thursday night was due to the fact
that negotiations between the goy-
eminent and the nationalist party
are still proceeding.
Besides taking a vote on the
Dawes agreement Friday, the reich
stag is scheduled to consider a lack
of confidence motion in the govern.
ment proposed by the peoples

PRESIDENT BACK At
DESK AFTER VACATION
LASTING TWO WEEKS
Finds Little Routine Work
Awaiting Attention On His
Return 30 Washington
MAY ACCEPT CHALLENGE

On Labor Day in Discuss
ion of Campaign Issues
MAY ACCEPT CHALLENGE

WASHINGTON, August 20. =
President Coolidge returned to
Washington today at. o'clock after
two weeks vacation on his IA
theirs farm at Plymouth, VT.
He has said he has no plans for
participating in the campaign and
that he viii stick to his desk and at
tend to government business. But
survey of the situation reveals no
governmental problems worthy of
engaging presidential attention. For
eign problems-debt funding and
the projected second armament con.
ference await the final decision of
Germany as to the Dawes plan and
the starting of the rehabilitation ma
chinery proposed therein.
Domestically, there is nothing of
consequence on the fire, with con-
gress out of the way. Even the pro-
blem of major appointments is
cleaned up with the selection of am
bassadors to Japan and Mexico. All
that remains for the president to do
is 70. .sign, commissions and other
routine papers, a mere handwriting

to the president.
But on the whole, there is moth
ing to tax the mental powers of a
full grown man, so far as the work
ing machinery of the government is
concerned. Later the president will
want to formulate policies for his
December message to congress, but
obviously that will wait until after
election. Also he is soon to appoint
his agricultural commission, but that
presents no serious problem.
So he is free, relatively speaking,
to get into the campaign, and accept
if he cares to, the challenge of SEN
ator Wheeler, the Independent vice
presidential candidate, who on
Thursday made it known that in his
Boston Labor Day speech he intends
to open up on Coolidge and chal-
lenge the president to go out and
show himself to the country.
