GRAIN CROPS SCARCE
TN DAKOTA. MONTANA

st. Paul, Mimi, Grain crops
have gone backward the past week
and large acreages of wheat, par
ticularly in the Dakotas and Mon
tana, have been cut for hay, the
Farmers Union Terminal associa-
ton says in its weekly crop re
view.
"The volume of wheat that will
be available for marketing will
be much under government esti-
mates of productions" the review
says, 'as much of the standing
grain has been cut for hay and
feed purposes. The holdings in
country mills and elevators are
only about 100000 bushels for
Minnesota, the Dakotas and Mon
tana combined. as year ago, so
that shipments from hold-over
grain will be much less than nor
NAL.
From Minot west to Havre,
Mont, there is virtually no wheat,
with the exceptions of a few fields
in scattered areas. From Devils
Lake west the crop situation is
serious, with about half crop in
the Devils lake territory.

Governor Makes
Drought Survey

Helena, Mont, Aug. 12-(UP)
An index to the drought area of
Montana, together with definite
pins for relief this winter, is
taking formation.
Upon his return from tour of
Northern and Northeastern Mon
tana counties where crop failures
spell suffering, Governor J. E.
Erickson said 5000 families would
need the necessities of life this
winter.
The governors tour of the area
was made as a preliminary step
toward coping with the emergen-
cy which the governor feels will
have to be met largely by Montana
resources and not by federal aid
or national donations.
Organization of relief agencies
will follow as more definite infor-
nation is obtained on what assis-
tance may be expected from the
federal government and the Red
Cross.
Though some assistance may be
extended in the form of seed and
feed loans, if federal restrictions
are lifted and the loan require
ments are altered to conform with
Montana conditions, the governor
is of the opinion that the drought
areas can expect little other aid
from the government.
The governor met with Secre-
retary of Agriculture Arthur M.
Hyde at Glasgow, where objections
to the departments feed loan plan
were laid before the secretary by
County Agent c. H. Wilson.
Wilson suggested that the limit
on loans be fixed with regard to
the amount of money involved
rather than with respect to the
number of stock. He told the Sec
retary that stockmen would not
hesitate to give the government
priority claims against the stock
if sufficient funds were provided
to feed the animals through the
winter.

Helena, (UP)-It's both expen-
sive to get married and expensive
to get divorced, and despite the
old-adage that "two can live
cheaper than one" Montana peo-
pie apparently have considered
the expense and forgot the adage.
That's the inference drawn from
federal bureau of census figures
which show that both marriages
and divorces are falling off in
numbers in Montana. This state
had 5,445 marriages and 1889
divorces in 1880 as compared with
6,116 marriages and 1892 divor-
ces in 1929.

PROCRESSIVES OF
BOTH PARTIES TO
DISCUSS ISSUES
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 10. U.P)-
Procedure relatively unique to poll
tics will prevail at the conference
of progressives tomorrow and Thurs
! day, when expert discussion OF So
cial and economic proposals will be
| heard instead of traditional party
rallying cries
This is the method chosen by the
progressives to prepare themselves
for their responsibility in the next
congress, where they will hold the
balance of power in both houses.
Senator Norris, Republican, Ne
braska, who called the meeting OF
independent minded friends in and
out of congress, said he would make
only brief address of welcome.
The prohibition issue, which is
agitating both parties at the mo-
ment, will be Stunned if Norris has
his way. He believes it is used by
many politicians as a smoke screen
to obscure what he regards as more
vital but possibly less spectacular
economic questions
AT the same time the appearance
of Senator Borah, Republican, Ida
no, as one of the prospective key
figures in the conferences, added
new interest among politicians to
the possible result of this movement.
Borah was listed in the program
TO be chairman of the conference on
farm relief Norris will preside over
the conference dealing with public
utilities; Senator Cutting, Repub-
lcan, New Mexico, over the discus
sion of return to representative
government: Senator Costigan
Democrat, Colorado, over a tariff
discussion. and someone yet to be
selected to conduct the meeting on
unemployment and industrial stabi-
lization.
Norris emphasizes that no third
party talk will be permitted

the project would deprive the state

Just before Atcheson addressed
the court, the Wyoming attorney,

TO dismiss Arizona s lawsuit.
Greenwood, defended the validity
of the Santa Fe compact which was
entered into by the Colorado river
basin states when the project was

legislature refused to ratify the
agreement.
Greenwood said the compact made
no provision for the diversion OF

wants the compact destroyed be-

the water to 4 100000 acre feet.
