100000 fund appropriated for "agri-
cultural rehabilitation.
This term was demanded by the
administration after congress dead
locked on the appropriation, and it
was interpreted by those who IA
vored the compromise as meaning
human food.
Regulations governing making of
such loans in the five states of Ten
nessee. Arkansas, Alabama. Louisi-
ana and Mississippi 1--we just been
issued. Two other sets of regula-
tons have been drawn for the
other drought-Stricken states.

these loans is delaying distribution
and is causing resentment on the
Part of some Of those who we're to
have been helped. in addition, some
protests are still being heard here
over the manner of distributing
Red Cross funds.
S. E. P. Smith Of the drought re-
lief committee of Crosby county,
Texas, has just wired Senator
Thomas Connally Dem., Tex that
the Red Cross there is denying aid
to farmers who are obtaining feed
and seed loans from the government.
He pleaded with Connally to get the
government to speed up its machin-
cry SO Crosby countians might bor-
row without collateral so they may
eat.
"The government loan feeds the
livestock, but hundreds of families
must suffer and go hungry unless
the Red Cross. or some other agency
furnishes food. Please do something
for us, Smith wired.

G. w. Warburton, secretary of
the federal drought relief commit
tee, said that feed, seed and fer
tilizer loans we're now being made in
twenty-eight states, and that ap-
proximately $10O0O,OOO had been
distributed. This work has been 60
ing on since January.
Arrangements have been made to
inaugurate making of '"'rehabilita-
tom loans in at least fifteen states,
but actual distribution of this $780,

In addition to these government

CLARINDA, Ia, March 1.-THE
story of the mysterious killing of
Mrs. Irwin Beach. 81, was locked
today in the mind of her paralyzed
husband, who watched, helpless,
as she was slain, but could not
tell what had happened because
he neither could move or speak.
In the same room in which the
bruised body Of his wife lay, Beach
was found by police late Monday.
He was semi-consciouS and lay
behind the bed to which he was
confined two weeks ago by a
stroke.
Nearby was the body Of Mrs.
Beach, her throat stuffed with
rags.
Officials advanced the theory
that the woman had been slain on
Sunday night by robbers.
It is believed he had witnessed
