breaking temperatures
The numb of deaths during the
heat wave shot upward to a total
Of 100 today as cooling northwest
winds pushed down the mercury in
the near northwest and in tho
northern tier of northwest states.
The absence of humidity in most
of the perspiring states was all that
kept the death list from mounting
still higher. The number definitely
ascribed to heat was 45. Drown
ings accounted for the other ninety
five.
The United Press taDulation OF
deaths during the heat wave since
Thursday throughout 20 states
shows 10 dead from heat prostra-

common.
Livestock perishcd by the hun
