THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1928 Fair Exhibits in All Departments Will Surpass Former "SHITH CONFIDENT OF RESULT INN. Democratic Candidate Not Worried Over Republican Claim Ibany, N.Y., Sept. §.--Gov. Al- Fh BE, Smith regards Republican claims that they will carry New York as the ordinary claims at this stage of the campaign, and is not worried about the situation, he id. wi did not go so far as to pre- dict a victory for the Democrats, but made it plain by his manner that he is confident. "Do I look worried?" he asked a group of newspaper correspond- ents, who stood about his desk in the capitol yesterday. ; He smiled, turned his cigar in his fingers, and showed no signs of worry. The governor announced that he expects to make public his cam- paign itinerary in two days, and when this news was properly rec- orded by the correspondents, he waited for another question, One of the reporters asked him what he thought of Republican claims of victory in New York state and the Republican contention that many who have voted for him for gov- ernor will not vote for him.for president, The candidate then ' gave his opinion of Republican claims. "Republican claims don't mean anything," he began. "This is the season when they claim the earth, There is as much to that claim as any they've made, none of which have ever been cor- rect, "They're entitled to any com- fort they can get." Plays Golf After spending a few hours at the capitol yesterday. for the first time since the day of his notifica- tion, the Democratic candidate left his office and went out for a game of golf in the afternoon, He will devote his attention to state business the rest of this week, He has called a meeting of the Building and Sites Commission for Thursday to comsider the Buf- falo office building situation, he said he has no plans for next week. The Democratic candidate dis- cussed yesterday his smoking hab its as he passed around cigarettes, which some one had sent him. "I don't smoke cigarettes any more," he explained, "though I used to years ago. I smoke all kinds of cigars, so that there is no ad- vertising value in my cigars, "A man came to me not long ago and wanted to take my picture smoking a pipe. 1 don't know whether it was for an advertise- ment or not. Why should I have my picture taken smoking a pipe, I asked him, when I don't smoke a pipe. And so I turned him down." Message to Hebrews Albany, N.Y., Sept. 5.--Gov, Al- fred E. Smith declared that "sep- aration of church and state is a fundamental American principle," in his annual message tonight to Jewish citizens, wishing them a prosperous new year, "May the new year bring to all of us a better understanding based upon respect for our differences and the recognition of our com- mon humanity," the Democratic candidate said, "Following my annual custom as governor, I desire with the ap- proach of the high holy days to wish my fellow Jewish citizens a good and prosperous new year, « "The conception underlying the Jewish observance of the new year has always appealed to me. It is a day of self-examination with a view to correcting one's shurtcom- ings in the year to come, It is not a day of carnival, but rather of the religious spirit, "This is the spirit which ani- mated the original settlers of our country of all denominations who came to our shores to seek free- dom to worship God aecording to their own conscience, "The separation of church and state is a fundamental American principle, The pursuit of virtue sanctioned by religion is at the basis of any civilized state, He- cause the Jewish people have a genius for religion, they have made their great contribution to civilization from which men and women of every race and creed have benefitted." No Decision Washington, Sept, 5.--While Herbert Hoover has given some consideration to the extent to which he will carry his fight into the south, no definite decision has been reached other than that he contemplates a trip which will carry him either into North Caro- lina or into Tennessee or to a point along the borderland between the two states, Some doubt was cast yesterday upon the possibility of the Repub- lican nominee making a speech in Chicago. It became known that he considered his declaration of his views on farm relief at West Branch, Iowa, probably was as close as"he would come to deliver-] ing an address in the middle west- ern metropolis. There is a remote possibility that he will visit Ohio. He spent his time yesterday in going over the Ohio situation with a group of Republican leaders from that state, and in discussing the general phases of the campaign with Senator William E, Borah, of Idaho, who will take the stump in the Republican cause about the middle of this month. The Ohioans said a fight must be made by the Republicans if the party is to hold the negro vote in line in that state, While prohibition will play a considerable part in the Ohio cam- paign, the state chairman said the tariff also would weigh heavily among the issues that will decile the result, "THE SALIENT" The defence of Ypres did more than help to win the war, It has probably ior all time (humanly speak- ing) saved Flanders from the risk of another invasion, For tliough, even if Ypres had fallen we might ot have lost the war, it would still have been Roisiols to argue that the invasion of elgium justified itseli by success, and the loss of the Narrow Seas would have aitered the whole cl: © ter of the war, But the successiul defence of Ypres not only saved the Straits, but made it possible for any- one to maintain that the crime of in- vading Relgium was not also a disas- trous military mistake, That was a service to the world of which it if almost impossible to over-estimate the importance, GRAIN REPORT IS ISSUED AT OTTAWA Harvesting Commenced in All Provinces With Little Damage , Ottawa, Sept. 7.--The crop report issued through the Dominion Bureau of Statistics Tuesday, contains no estimate of the total yield, Manitoba reports most grain crops cut and a considerable percentage stooked. The experimental farm a: Brandon states that threshing had been delayed by showers until the last days of Aug- ust. A small amount of wheat has been threshed and graded number 2 northern, Heavy yield is expected in most districts. The Dominion experi- mental station at Morden reports threshing general with average yields. Wheat yields from 8 to 38 bushels, oats 45 to 80, barley 25 to 50. Grades of wheat are No. 1 to No. 2 north- ern, Saskatchewan The Saskatchewan Department of Agriculture reports that, with wea- ther generally faverable for workin the field, cutting has made good pro- gress and is now well advanced. Wheat cutting is from 70 to 80 per cent, completed and harvesting cof coarse grains is also well under way, Only a small percentage has been threshed., Frosts of varying degrees are reported in many districts, but it is impossible to estimate the extent of damage until the crop is threshed. It is serious in some areas, but generally appears patchy, while the loss will show mainly in grades, the yield in late ficlds of both wheat and coarse grains will undoubtedly be af- fected. From the Dominion ex- perimental station, Swift Current, wheat harvesting 60 per cent. finish- ed, Late crop damaged in both yield and grade by frost, August 22. Much of early crop will lose from 1 to 3 grades, but will yield {fairly well, average wheat yield of district will probably exceed 20 bushels, Alberta The Dominion experimental station Lethbridge, Alberta, states that frost on night of August 13, did material damage to wheat in lowering grades in certain areas of southern Alberta, but probably 80 per cent, of area south of Calgary escaped damage. Twenty per cent. of wheat cut, Late grain ripening slowly, From the British Columbia De- partment of Agriculture--August weather ideal for harvesting grains. All fruits are sizing and ripening fast. Harvesting about 70 per cent. completed and threshing well ad- vanced. Yield of grains generally above average. The dry weather has been favorable to vegetable crops but rain is needed for root crops and pastures. Hop picking is in full pro- gress. Tobacco harvesting has com- menced. Prince Edward lsland Prince Edward Island--From the | [El Dominion Experimental Station, Charlottetown--August temperatures highest, 90; lowest, 50; mean, 65.613; rainfall, 3.88; sunshine, 181.7 hours. August weather favorable for har- vest. Haying completed with heavier vield than estimated. Most cereals were cut early. Crops are above av- crage. Blight is growing, but potato crop is growing well, and should yield above average. Roots and past- ures are good. Fruit crop will be light, . Nova Scotia From the Dominion Experimental Station, Amherst--Ideal weather pre- vailed for entire month. Hay better than average, 75 per cent. harvested. Grain average, ripening fast, 50 per cent. harvested. Root and silage crops excellent. Pastures, good, but need rain.
