toll of timberland. homes and re-
sort property in the most serious
menace of the season in California.
Twelve blazes, it was reported at
state and federal ranger headquar-
ters were burning over widely
scattered front. Hundreds of men
were called by rangers to replace or
assist weary fighters who have bat
tied some fires for several DAYS.
Two fires were regarded as of un-
usually serious proportions. One in
the rich Lake Tahoe basin destroy
ed 20 buildings in the Crown Will
liamette Paper company camp three
miles north of Tahoe City, together
with 500 acres of cutover land and
10000 cords of pulp wood ready for

Last night high winds sweeping
through the mountains tossed burn
ing fire brands for a mile or more,
scattering the fire beyond control
of 275 fighters until lull i'll the
wind allowed them to throw Il line
about it.
The stubborn blaze raging for two
days in the Jameshurg region
spreading partly into the Monterey

buildings. Incendiarism was blamed

REPUBLICANS TO
MAKE DRIVE FOR
C0LORED VOTES
By KENNETH CRAWFORD
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent

(Unlted Press Sta1t correspondence
WASHINGTON. Aug. a
liberal part of the $4,oOo,OOO the
Republicans expect to spend in their
efforts to elect Herbert Hoover will
probably be devoted to winning
negro votes.
This became evident today with
announcement that colored voters
division of the Republican national
committee had been formed to direct
the campaign among members of
the black race.
The announcement made by Chair.
man Work Of the national commit
tee, did not specify whether an in
tensive drive was to be mad among
Southern negroes. 1t was believed,
however, that main efforts would
be centered on the large negro
voting population in New York,
certain middle west states and the
border territory.
John r. Hawkins of this city, who
seconded Hoover 5 nomination at
Kansas City, was appointed chair
man of the executive committee di-
recting negro activity.
"a spirited campaign in which
business, professional and rcligiuOs
leaders will have 4 prominent and
active part will be launched i'm.
mediately Chairman Hawkins said,
How the remainder of the $1,000
GOO Republican war chest win be
used is a matter Of speculation. Per
haps one third of it will be devoted
to publicity and speakers. Other ex-
penditures will be made for special
bureaus for labor, women, service
men, foreign born voters, farmers,
commercial travellers, clerical help
and office maintenance.
