Treaty, Tariff and Harbors Bills

WASHINGTON, May &C tP,-senate
republicans decided at party con-
ference today to attempt TO dispose
Of the London naval treaty, the
rivers and harbors bill, the tariff,
and several other important pieces
Of legislation before adjournment.
Senator Watson. the majority
leader, said no vote was taken, but
that the consensus was that the leg

said veterans legislation probably
would be considered as well as the
house bill to regulate bus trans
portation.
July Probable Date a..
The republican leader said the
program made it unlikely that con-
gress could adjourn before early in
July.
Disposal of the legislative pro-
gram first, he said, would give
ample time for the foreign rela-
tons and naval committees to COM
plete treaty hearings and clear the
way for floor debate.
Tho tariff conference report is
expected to require about ten days
in the senate. He would not
hazard prediction as to how long
the rivers and harbors bill would
take.

be taken up at this session has been
acted upon by the house. Senate

Farm Board Chairman Finds
Drought Damage in Certain
States MiSinterpreted.
BY the Associated Press.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, August 27.--Be-
lief that the agricultural yield Of the
States of the upper Mississippi and Mis-
souri, Valleys will be as great and in
some instances greater in 1880 than in
1929 was expressed yesterday by Alex
ander Legge, chairman of the Federal
Farm Board.
Declaring that "there has been too
much conversation and misinterpreta-
ton of facts regarding the drought"
Chairman Legge said that this talk
resulted in the mistaken impression
that the damage has been widespread
throughout the agricultural States, re-
sulting in a decrease in farm incomes"
Legge said that while the damage
has been serious In the tiers of coun-
ties adjoining the Rocky Mountain re-
gion, In Missouri, Kentucky, Virginia,
West virginia, Maryland and certain
OF the Southern States, including Texas.
the drought has not been serious in
the upper Mississippi and Missouri VAL
leys.
But the agricultural region of the
Nation of which Iowa is the center will
enjoy almost if not fully as good or
better farm incomes this year than in
1929. This includes Nebraska, Northern
Kansas, Northwest Missouri, eastern por-
lions of the Dakotas. Minnesota, Wis
conSin, most of Illinois and portions of
Michigan, Ohio and Indiana"

SHANGHAI, August 81 tHss-Reds in
the vicinity of Wusueh, Hupeh Province,
today attacked the American glnboat
Panays showering it with machine gun
bullets. The PSnay returned the fire.
The damage inflicted upon the attack
ers was not determined. The gunboat
was not damaged.
Foreign women and children were
neeing from Changsha, Human Province
capital, for Hankow today because of
the increasing menace of 5000 Commu-
nistS approaching the city with the EVIL
dent intention of attempting to re-
capture it,
With no protection except weakened
garrison Of provincial troops of doubtful
loyalty at ChangShs, it was felt to be
imperative to evacuate as many for
eiRners as possible to avoid the posi-
nility of an attack such as hordes of
Communists recently made on the city,
burned.
Troops Sent TO Scene.
Hoping to prevent repetition of
the sacking, President Chang Kai-Shek
has ordered 90 900 troops detached from
his army In Shantuns Province, where
government troops are attempting to
suppress Northern revolt, and sent to
Human province to punish the Reds.
The danger from the Communists
appeared to be made worse by the fact
that Ho Chen, governor Of Human and
commander of provincial troops there,
had been deposed by his subordinate
ofncers and fed. Whether he was ousted
because of his disloyalty or because of
the disloyalty OF his officers was not
made clear in dispatches. Ho was sus-
pected of blame for the recent looting
OF Changsha, however, and has figured
In the past in alleged red connections.
Because of low water in the river
ct Changsha, foreign gunboats, which
recently figured in exchanges with red
troops, were unable to get near enough
70 the city to be effective After the
recent attack on the capital most Of
the foreigners fed to Hankow, but some
returned, feeling there would be no
more trouble.
The reds killed many Chinese and
took prisoner for ransom many others.
When the provincial troops retook the
place, they executed Communist leaders.
G It was thought that the impending
red attack would be primarily for re-
Nenge.

Veterans will shoulder the pitch

staff are back, including Sam Gray,
General Crowder, George Blae-

Stewart, John Ogden, Chad Kimsey
and Dick Coffman.
The four additions to the staff are
Earl Caldwell, who won tWenty-one

ROLAND Stiles, who won twenty-five
and lost eleven for Tulsa; Herman
Holshauser. who won nine and lost
ten for Baltimore, and Fred StieIy,
who won ten and lost eleven for

Stiely joined the Browns last fall
and won his only start. AS the
Browns need left-handed pitching

tanned. Stewart is the only other
southpaw on the club. Stiely has
