children, who came to see Papa take the oath of office for t-ie third time, got lost in the crowd, and thought they were ill the Grand Central Terminal in New York. In fact, the crowd was so great that even Mrs. RooSeYelt's brother, Hall Roosevelt, was el- bowed out to quarters in an ad- jacent hotel.
 The partying started on Sum- day with a luncheon. for IA guests. That looks like plenty of people to have for lunch, but the figure pales into insignifi- canoe beside the number of Mon days Iunchers. They were L. 500 strong. And this figure was dwarfed by the 4,600 who came to tea, making the total for that one day 6,200.
 The house guests were lost, all though they were no small crowd themselves. Major Hooker. for mer law partner of the President got room on the third floor, but other guests overflowed into three adjacent hotels.
 The big job of receiving these thousands fell not on the Presi- dent but on Mrs. Roosevelt. The President received only a few hundred, but she received and shook hands with them all. CRISIS MARCH 15?
 Secretaries Stimson and Knox did not go into details when they told Congress they expected an international crisis in 60 to 90 days, but actually their War De- pertinent experts have gone so far as to fix the approximate date of March IS for the crisis to break.
 This estimate is based not only upon the already known fact that British shipping and it's conveys must be reinforced, but also on secret negotiations now taking place to establish an Eastern Front, thus make Hitler fight two wars instead of one.
 This was one of the big req sons for the pilgrimage of Col. Wild Bill" Donovan to North Africa, also for visits of officials from the American Embassy in France to Algiers. Their reports are extremely significant-assert- ing that Marshal Weygand, com mander of the French forces in Africa, has become vigorously pro- British.
 Furthermore, he has stated quite bluntly to American repre- sentatives that if he were sure of getting sufficient tanks, air planes and ammunition, he would undertake a campaign against the Italians immediately.

The Connecticut State Grange which has always been one of the strongest ad- vocates of the dirt road fund is just as strong in it's support of the proposal now that the annual fund be upped from three to five million dollars.

trator R. M. Evans and I. w. Dug. gan, head of AAA's southern divi- sion. The victor's leaders are
 Milo Perkins, head of the Federal
 Surplus Commodities Corporation;
 c. B. Baldwin, chief of the Farm
 Security Administration, and How
 ard Tolley, head of the Bureau of Agricultural Economies,
 The decision will mean less en- phasis on crop restriction and more
 emphasis on measures to increase
 consumption-less of the AAA pro-
 gram and more of things like the
 stamp plan and the rarm tenant program.
 ! FIGHT GOES
 WAY BACK
 Two actions by Secretary Wick
 ard recently gave the tip-off on the
 victory.
 One was his public statement
 urging farmers to raise more hogs to take advantage of rising pork
 prices. This was hefesy to the
 conservatives in the department, who argued it was simply
 means of knocking downpork prices all over again. Another was Wickard,s an-. | nouncement of 8 supplemental cot , ton program, which in effect will give cotton growers cotton stamps rather than cash for making fur ther reductions in cotton acreage "a measure aimed at increasing
 consumption of cotton goods at the same time that it cuts production ] of raw cotton, thereby biting into the surplus from botn sides. The argument between the two ! wings of the department dates back to the beginning of the New Deal. In the main, the conservative group
 stood for the theory that the farm | problem could be solved by cutting production and keeping prices up. It has fought to retain agricultures l foreign markets, via export subsi-
 dies. In cutting domestic produc- l tion, 1t has consciously or uncon- 1 sciously followed the viewpoint of
 the large-scale farmer, the big plan tation owner, the farming -busi- ness man.
 PURGE" REVERSED
 1 From the start this brought about
 a scrap. The other group in the de- ! partment protested that the AAA
 program was making the plight of the tenant and the sharecropper
 worse, that only a broadening of the ! domestic market offered any real ! hope, and that to insist on keeping | the export market at all costs would | ultimately raise hob with the na- i tion'S foreign policy.
 Several years ago the conserva- tives triumphed, and there followed the famous 'triple-A purge in which
 such men as Jerome Frank and Gardner Jackson were busted. But events played into the hands of the
 liberal bloc. The war helped kill the
 reliance on export markets. The eX- 1 istence. today of a 14,000, ,000-bale
 cotton carry over has stimulated the effort to broaden the domestic mar
 ket. And with President Roosevelt
 giving his backing to Secretary Wickard in the latter's siding with l the liberals, the reversal of the con- 1 servatives' victory in the purge" is 1 ahollt cornplete.

Florida Race Tracks
Are Worried About
Many Factors
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated PfesS.
MIAMI, Fla, Aug 23.-The gray
hairs cropping up in the heads OF
Florida's horse racetrack operators
are due to a combination Of circum-
stances-all adverse.
Secretly, they're plenty worried.
There's that new per cent tax
on the pari-mutuel take. meaning
that Is cents will come of the top
of every dollar wagered. Some Of
the smart bettors may not want to
buck that percentage.
Gasoline rationing-if it becomes
drastic-almost certainly would hurt
Miami's two tracks, Hialeah and
Tropical, both located about II miles
from the center OF the city. Most
of the patrons have been accustomed
to motor to and from the tracks
Then there is the matter Of COM
petition for good h --ses. Hialeah
will hike its purse money, but still
can't begin to compare with the
outlay by California's Santa Anita.
