Weather Influences Potato Prices

Officials.

By the Associated Press.
Freezing weather in the Far West
today elated officials in charge of the
agricultural adjustment program as
potato prices shot upward and the need
for spud control program lessened.
Artificial control of this crop, au-
thorized by Congress in its closing
days. has plagued the A. A. A. for
two months.
In the last 80 days, the price of one
= major commercial type of potato has
more than doubled, and prices of other
varieties have advanced sharply. Potato
control and benefit subsidy program
would be unnecessary if this trend
continues.
Principal reasons given for the price
increases are early freezing weather
in large Western producing States and
market reaction to preparations for
compulsory potato production control
next year.

AS for the war debts, we'll that is
more amusing still.
Americas debtors have said plainly
that they do not refuse to recognize
their Indebtedness, but they are so
hard up that it would wreck their
financial and economic structure if
they were to pay us nickel at the
present time.
They all go on the theory that II
a country has no money it certainly
cannot pay its debts.
A very quick surrey of the er-
penditure made in the last tew
months, since the Itdlian-Ethiopidn
Uar started, proDes that the prin-
cipdl debtor nations hare spent
more money already than it Uould
hare taken to pay the last two
inStallments due to the United
States. And this is only the be-
ginning.
1t is estimated that the European
powers will have to spend no less than
SIS 900, 900 on new warships, on the
rejuvenation of their air forces and
on the mechanization and moderniza-
ton of their land forces. This rep
resents about 40 per cent of the debt
to the United States.

TOURIST BUSINESS GREAT
HELP TO VIRGINIANS

Estimates of the value of the tourist
business to Virginia during the last
year, made by the Virginia State
Chamber of Commerce according to
attested formulate, was $73,881 ATS,
the organization announced today. The
traffic count on the highways was
used as the base for the study and no
account was taken whatever of any
rail or boat travel from which Virginia
benefited.
The average number of automobiles
that entered Virginia daily last year
and proceeded twenty miles within the
state or farther, numbered 12,145 per
day for the entire year. Using the &C
copied average Of three and third
persons per automobile, the number
that visited Virginia is given as 40,483
persons each day or latte, 295 per-
sons year. Assuming that each visi-
tor spent only SIS and that no one
stayed in the state Of Virginia more
than one day, the actual expenditure
of these visitors was $73,S81,475.
The traffic count at the boundary of
Virginia was not used as the basis of
study, but counts made at least twen-
ty miles from the state line were add
ed for all highways which lead out of
the state.

NEW TRACK
THREAT

LONDON, July 13.-Flashing to
the tape in the second fastest mile
ever run by man, S. C. Wooderson
today outran Jack Lovelock, ia
nous New Zealand miller, to win
the event at the Amateur Athletic
Association championships
Wooderson. in beating the Ok
ford medical student by three
yards, zoomed across the finish
line in 4:07.4, seriously endanger-
ing the world mark set by Glenn
Cunningham in the Princeton invi-
tation mile in 4:O6.8, June Is, 1884.
Olympic Threat
Wooderson's triumph today,
coming shortly after track experts
had hailed Lovelock as unbeatable,
since he had outdistanced Gun
ningham and Bonthron at this
years Princeton meet, caused the
track world to mark him as an
Olympic threat in the world games
in August, 1886.
In 1888 Lovelock set the worlds
record OF 4:O7.6, TO NIP Bill Bon
thron at the tape. The Princeton
runner that day was clicked in
4:08.
The following year at the same
meet, over a lightning fast cinder
path, Cunningham defeated Bon
thron in the worlds record time
of 4:06.8, while Bonthron did 400.
Joins Big List
The only other man to break
the 4:10 mark was Jules Ladou-
megue, of France.
Wooderson, by his victory,
joined the group of human filters,
including Luigi Beccali, the Ital-
ian middle-distance star. Beccali
set the record for the 1,500-meter
run, the metric mile, of 1924,
but since that time Bonthron has
clipped that mark with his
3:48.8, recorded June 80, 1884, at
the national championships.
