CHARET SMOKING
 CROWS BY LEAPS
 ILL OYER WORLD

pipe tobaccos now account for only one quarter of the consump- tion in the United Kingdom.
 "It is, we think, probable hat pipe tobacco does not now form more than 35 per cent of the total tobacco consumption of the British Empire"
 The advance of the cigaret in popular favor is not confined to the United Kingdom. Throughout Europe consumption now inclines towards cigarets and the milder varieties of pipe tobaccos.
 In the United States, pipe and chewing tobacco still Is the greater part of the consumption. but the proportion of cigarets is increasing.
 It Is estimated that the total production of tobacco in the world in 1926 was 4,900.000.0 900 tons, of which the United States and the British Empire provided approximately one half.
 Between 1920 and 1924 the consumption of empire tobacco expanded at a rate of 1,650.0 .00O pounds a year, and between 1924 and 1927 at a rate of 3,z0O,000 pounds year.

LONDON, Oct. 6. - Cigaret smoking the world over has shown big increase during the last year.
 In England it is steadily oust- ing the pipe from the favor of smokers. Even in Germany, where pipe tobacco still predominates, a marked increase in the con sumption of cigarets has taken place.
 The imperial economic commit tee, which has been making q survey of the situation, points out that in India the annual con- sumption of cigarets is now about 6,500, 100000 as compared with an annual figure of somewhat under 1,000,O0O, 1000 before the war. The cigaret is thus at present advancing in worldwide favor, but the consumption per head appears to be highest in the United Kingdom.

America's Tank Ship Tonnage NoU Holding
 Leadership of World

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-The low lying, snub-nosed, pot-bellied tank ship does not bulk so large on the worlds shipping horizon, but when it comes to statistical shown down the tanker is Uncle Sam's biggest representative.
 Tankers comprise about nine per cent of total world tonnage, but they represent IF per cent of merchant ships registered under the American flag. While less than third of the ships carrying Americas water-borne foreign commerce fly the Stars and Stripes, all but small percentage of the bulk export movement of petroleum products is carried in tankers sailing under the Aneri- can flag. Most of them are from tanker fleets almost entirely own ed by American oil companies.
 The United States led the world in tanker tonnage last year with 2.423.000 gross tons, the American Petroleum institute points out. Great Britain was second with 2,023.000 gross tons. Supremacy fo the United States in this class of shipping appears to have been a post-Nar development. for in 1914 American tankers had total ton- mage of only 151,O00 gross tons and Britain led the world with

ABOARD YANKEE SPECIAL FOR ST. LOUIS, Oct 6.-Flushed with two clear victories over the Cardinals, the Yankees are riding the rails today in high hopes Of capturing four straight games in the World Series, and duplicating their performance against the Pir- ates last year.
 We will make it four straight if we can," drawled Babe Ruth. "Who started all this chatter about the Tanks being set-up for the Cards? We look pretty good for invalids."
 Miller Huggins said he would try to end the series as quickly as possible but baseball is so un- certain he is making no predic- tions.
 Higgins said he would pitch Zachary or Johnson, it all cepend- ing on the weather. He will use Johnson if the day is dark.

S37,000 gross tons.
 The American oil tanker is in effect water, pipe line, so reg ular are it's journeys between oil fields and seaboard refineries. Mexican and Venezuelan oil fields are linked with refining plants on the Gulf and Atlantic coasts by tank ships. It even ex- tends the shore pipe from the mid- continent fields to the Gulf, from the Gulf ports to east coast re- fineries.
 There is a steady movement of crude petroleum by tank vessel from the oil fields of California to the large refineries of the Atlantic coast and to Europe. The Pana- ma canal largely makes this con. tinuous movement possible and the tank fleets help to make the canal possible.
 In 1923 an enormous increase in canal traffic, largely tanker move ment, aided in lifting the cost of canal operation out of the red ink area. In 1924 about third of canal revenues were paid by tank CTS and about two-thirds of the coast-to-coast tonnage was petro- leum and products in tankers Since that time the movement has declined. but still ranges around 6,000,000 gross tons yearly.

 Fair Play
 He made no reference to re- ligious questions that are stirring i'ie southern States, but he did appeal for fair play. good sports manship in Inc campaign.
 We prove ourselves worthy of self-goyernment and worthy of confidence as officials in propor- ton as We keep these contests free from abuse. free from mis- representation and free from words and acts thaf carry regret" he said. Tn contests like this there is no place for personal bitter ness. The great attribute of our political life has been the spirit of fair play with which our Pres ldential contests have been waged in former years and the sports manlike spirit in which we ae- cepted the results
 Prohibition
 Hoover confined his Prohibition statement to single paragraph in which he said, "the purpose of the Eighteenth Amendment is to protect tne American home and the sacred obligation is imposed on the President to secure honest enforcement and to eliminate the abuses which have grown up around 1t; l wish 1t to succeed"
 No such far-reaching and spe cific proposal has ever been made by any political party on behalf of any industry in our history as the Republicans propose this year" he said.

 Vote for Smith

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 6.-Declaring that the farmers would by their votes in November express their resentment of the betrayal of their interests by the Harding and Cool idge Administrations and their ap- preciation of the welcome and pledges, that will be kept, that were given their representatives at Houston by the Democratic con- vention, by voting for Smith a1d Robinson, former Senator Gilbert M Hitchcock of this State, spoke on farm relief here last night. He declared that the Republicans ig- nored the farmers during the Hard ing Administration and repudiated the pledges, given them at Cleve- land in 1924, during the Coolidge Administration. He declared that Herbert Hoover had approved of the Presidential veto of the only two measures offered during the Coolidge Administration for the farmers,s and that he had Lever shown the slightest interest in farm relief until after ne had been nominated for President and caught the sounds from the Vest ern storm.
 Senator Hitchcock said that Gov. Smith was right when he ques- toned the existence of the pros- perity about which MT. Hoover and the Republicans dwell so much. He said that there coule not be genuine prosperity wien 30.000,000 American agrieulturists felt the need for help to stop an- nual losses in farming and were suffering under the load of a shrirlage in S.4rm laczl rslues amounting to $20.O00, ,O00.0O0 He further offered as proof tGat p.'os- perity was not general in the coun- try the circumstance that there had been more than 4,000 bank failures under eight years of Hard ing and Coolidge and less than TOO during the eight years of Will son. He showed also that there had been a corresponding increase of commercial and industrial fail ures during the last eight years.

 Mckechnie's Scheme
 A change of tactics will be or dered when the series is resumed Sunday. Manager McKechnie has sent two pitchers against the Yan- kees who rely on equipment rather than speed to get them by. Both Sherdel and Alexander are in the loss column. He will probably turn Haines and his fast ball into the diamond in an effort to get into the win column.
 Huggins' Plan
 Miller Huggins may call on Henry Johnson young right hand CT who has had great first year in the American League. He has sent in two sturdy right handlers to hald the the Cards. If the Yan- kee's had lost the first two games, Tom Zachary, experienced left handler, who has been in two pre- vious World Series, would have been called without doubt.
