DRY PARTY TO BACK HOOVER; MERGER FAILS Refuses to Join Campaign With Farmer-Labor Group at Chicago. BY REX R. GOAD (United Press Staff Correspondent) CHICAGO, July 12.—The national Prohibition party, divided over endorsement of a presidential candidate, re-convened here today to vote upon a party platform. The prohibitionists, who Wednesday had refused to combine with the Farmer-Labor party behind the third-party candidacy of Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska, appeared ready to end their convention with either an actual or an inferred endorsement of Secretary Herbert Hoover. D. Leigh Colvin, national chairman of the party, said the nomination of Senator Norris would not emphasize the aim of the party—strict enforcement of the prohibition law. There seemed considerable sentiment in favor of a recorded endorsement of the Hoover-Curtis ticket, with the party pledging support to all dry State and National candidates. This sentiment, however, was opposed by a group which desired to remain noncommittal in the presidential contest and preferred to confine the efforts of the party to support of dry candidates for Congress. The platform, carrying essentially

The revised platform was to be presented today for final consideration.

! NORRIS CHOICE OF FARM-LABOR FOR PRESIDENT Nebraskan Is Selected on Third Ballot; Dry Plank Is Compromise. Bu United Press CHICAGO, July 12.—The FarmerLabor party, failing to form a coalition with the Prohibition party, closed its annual convention here with the nomination of Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska as its presidential candidate. Senator Norris’ statement that he was not inclined to accept the nomination of a third party failed to alter the course of the FarmerLaborites in selecting him as the'candidate. Ass Norris’ running mate, the con- 1 vention selected Will Vereene, Moultrie, Ga. Senator Norris was nominated on the third ballot, receiving sixteen votes. Norman Thomas, Socialist nominee, received the remmning fourteen votes of the thirty \r>ting delegates. The prohibition question, over which the joint committees of the Farmer-Laborites and Prohibition party disagreed in their attempts to bring about a combination of forces, was mentioned briefly in the platform adopted by the Farmer-Labor party. The dry plank represented a compromise, calling merely for strict enforcement of all laws. Abolition of the injunction in labor disputes, and the rights of farmers and industrial workers to organize was upheld and the equalization fee principle of farm relief was approved. Scrapping of all implements of warfare was pledged, as was withdrawal of United States forces from Nicaragua and non-interference in local affairs of Mexico, Latin-Amer-ica, and other foreign countries.

r Ss /< ( Jm

Baby specialists agree nowadays, that during the first six months, babies must have three ounces of fluid per pound of body weight daily. An eight pound baby, for instance, needs twenty-four ounces of fluid. Later on the rule is two ounces of fluid per pound of body weight. The amount of fluid absorbed by a breast fed iaby is best determined by weighing him before and after feeding for the whole day; and it is easily calculated for the bottle fed one. Then make up any deficiency with water. Giving baoy sufficient water often relieves his feverish, crying, upsdt and restless spells. If it doesn’t, give him a few drops of Fletcher’s Castoria. For these and other ills' of babies and children such as colic, cholera, diarrhea, gas on stomach and bowels, constipation, sour stomach, loss of sleep, underweight, etc., leading physicians say there’s nothing so effective. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper —and millions of mothers have depended on it in over thirty years of ever increasing use. It regulates baby’s bowels, makes him sleep and eat right, enables him to get full nourishment from his food, so he increases in weight as he should. With each package you get a book on Motherhood worth it’s weight in gold: Just a word of caution. Look for the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher on the package so you’ll be sure to get the genuine. The forty cent bottles contain thirty-five doses.—Advertisement.

CROP ACREAGE HARVESTED TO NEARJCQRD Reports Do Not Indicate Correspondingly Large Grain Yields. BY DEXTER M. KEEZER WASHINGTON, July 12. present prospects materialize, the harvested acreage of agricultural crops in the United States this year will be larger than that of any year since 1919, according to reports from farmers in all parts of the country just compiled by the Agriculture Department’s division of crop and livestock estimates. In 1919, when the farms of the country still were geared for maximum wartime production, approximately 350,000,000 acres were harvested, but this year the indications are there will be more than 350,000,000 acres. The record-breaking acreage this year is expected to have an important bearing on the controversy over “farm relief” during the presidential 'campaign, being cited as evidence that any artificial stimulation of farm prices might speedily lead to serious over-production. Reports received .donot indicate that there will be acorrespondingly large crop. While the Expected harvest is 2 per cent larger than last year in acres, the average condition of all crops on July 1 was about 6 per cent

lower than the average for the past ten years. Officials of the department assert that it is too early to make any definite forecasts about the size of the nation’s harvest this year, but suggest that if there are no serious upsets it may be about the same as last year. In accounting for the large acreage, agricultural experts here assert that Improved prices for some crops, as well as a relative shortage of jobs in industrial centers must be taken into account.
