DROUTH RELIEF
WORKERS MEET
Rains in Many Sections
Halt Crop Losses
Slightly

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2O.-Vl-
President Hoover called the first
meeting Of his National Drought
Committee for late today at the
White House. The meeting is for
the purpose Of organization and
consideration Of preliminary steps
in the drought relief program.
All members Of the committee
except Henry M. Robinson, Los
Angeles banker, will attend the
meeting.
Governor w. j. Holloway. Of
Oklahoma. telegraphed the Pres
ident today that his state had
perfected a State Wide Drought
Committee and was planning
county committees, all of which
would cooperate with the Federal
Government.
The Department Of Agriculture
reported that while rains this week
had brought material relief to many
localities, numerous sections were
"largerly unrelieved."
Deterioration of the corn crop
was said to have been checked in
most sections by frequent showers
and cool weather. but material
improvement in the development
will apparently be limited"
Harvest Of small grains Is now
largely completed.
Temperatures were moderate In
the eastern cotton belt, but con-
tinued abnormally high in the
west, while local showers were
rather general east Of the Mis-
sissippi River. In the western belt
the drought has been mostly in
tensified by continued high tenn
peratures and lack OF rain.
Moderate to heavy showers oc-
cured during the week over large
areas Of the more droughty sec
tons Of the country" the report
said. These have brought material
relief TO many localities especially
in reviving pasture lands and i'm
proving late truck crops and gardens
where they were not too far gone.
Is replenishing stock water, and
some areas benefiting corn
In the southern portion Of the
corn belt the crop was SO far
gone before the rains came that
only a limited amount Of the late
planted on bottom lands can re-
ceive actual benefit. the report
continued. while in other consider
able areas only a checking OF
deterioration Is apparent.
