MERCURY DROPS IN NATIONWIDE WAVE
No Relief From Drought, How
 ever, Reported
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 Temperatures that tumbled pre- cipitously overnight today brought to the entire country a break in a five day. wave of excessive heat.
 From coast to coast and from the border to the gulf, cities reported appreciable drops, especially Bis marck. North Dakota, where the temperature fell 4S degrees to 54. Bismarck yesterday had a tempera- ture of 102, the highest in the coun- try, and today the city was the cool est. The highest reading at o'clock (eastern standard time) this morn- ing was SS at Boise. Idaho.
 The break in the heat. however, failed to alleviate severe drought conditions in the United States and Canada. Rains continued local and light while crops went on wilting and forest fires in Canada assumed menacing proportions. Agricultural authorities in the east estimated that three days of soaking rain is needed for crops in their region. In Suffolk county on Long Island farmers feared a $3.000,0OO loss to their potato and corn fields.
