A colleague of mine, and former director of a testing center at which 
the GRE was administered, suggested that the drop in verbal GRE and rise in 
quantitative GRE has been due to the increasing numbers of foreign students 
taking the GRE.

Cheers,

And of course the GRE was never intended to predict graduate GPA
among students accepted to graduate programs -- its purpose was (and
is) to predict which among the pool of applicants to graduate
programs would successfully complete those programs.
That would be the only fair test of its effectiveness.
