GOVERNMENT T0BUY
s15,oOQ,o00 WORTH
OF BUTTER AND BEEF
Aim Is to Assist Needy and
Help Producers by EIimin-

Washington. Oct. II. -tR,- Pur-
chases Of $15.00o.000 worth OF butter
and beef Tuesday was the govern
ments latest step IN its program tor
feeding surplus foodstuffs to the
needy.
At the rate Of 100000 or more
pounds week, government money
will dig into. a butter surplus esti-
mated at 7oyooo,ooo pounds. Stimuli
it will buy an undeter-
MINED quantity OF beef In the Gamer
and cutter grades.
Readiness to make the purchase
was announced by Harry L. Hopkins,
relief administrator, and Secretary
Wallace. There were indications that
before long eggs will be added to the
surplus-relief buying.
Needy people on the relief rolls
in many communities. Hopkins said,

sufficient quantities Of meat and but
ter. while cattle, dairy and hog grow
ers are suffering from poor markets.
The farm administration already
has purchased 100000, COO pounds OF
pork.
The farm adjustment administra-
ton Monday conducted hearing on
the proposed processing tax on milk
and the ACCESSIBILITY Of compensatory
taxes on products that compete with
milk.
"A tax Of one to ono and one-half
cents per pound. on butterfat has
been suggested. A higher level would
be necessary II the tax were the full
between the present and

The farm adjustment administra-
ton. however. feels q high tax Of,
butterfat might raise prices suffi-
GENTLY to curtail consumption Of
milk. There was no opposition to the
proposed processing tax but several
witnesses cautioned the rate should
not be too high.

FORT PECK PROJECT
STANDING IN WAY OF
DIVERSION PROPOSAL
Secretary Of interior lckes Says
Too Much Money Spent
Already

Washington. Oct. 17.-(P,-secre-
tary Of the Interior Ickes Tuesday
said that the $65.0oo,o0o Missouri
river diversion project. outlined Mon
day by Senator Nye Of North Dakota,
would be INSTRUCTED in some meas
ure by the fact that a public works
allotment of $l5,50O.000 already has
been made for a flood control and
navigation reservoir at Fort Peck,
Mont.
THE public works administration
already has spent more for federal
projects than it expected to do" said
Secretary Ickes. THE fact that a
grant has been made for Fort Peck
naturally would make it more diff
cult for US to make an allotment for
the diversion program"
The diversion project is being
urged by North Dakota and South
Dakota. supported by Minnesota and
Iowa.
A delegation Of North Dakotans
representing the Missouri River d.
version association conferred Monday
with former Gov. A. j. Weaver Of Ne
braska, president OF the Missouri
River Navigation association and
prominent hacker Of the Fort Peck
project.
Senator Nye tRep.. N. d. called on
Colonel Henry NJ. Waite. deputy pub
lie works administrator, to learn what
effect the Fort Peck allotment might
have on the diversion project, since
the Garrison dam Is down the river
from Port Peck.
Backers of the Garrison dam pro-
ject point out that the Yellowstone,
Milk and Little Missouri rivers empty
into the Missouri below Fort Peck,
which they say constitutes a flood
control problem the approved project
cannot solve.
Would Raise Water Level
Their chief Justification for gov
eminent expenditures of SOS 600, O00
on Missouri river diversion is that 1t
would raise the sub-surface water
levels In regions Of North Dakota
South Dakota and Minnesota, and
thus alleviate drought. Flood con-
troll and navigation. however. are also
claimed as merits Of the project.
A complete report OF engineers fol
the diversion program is to be pre-
sented to the public works admins
tration this week.
That report. said the North Dako-
tans. declares the project at CARR
son to be vital to the Dakotas and
the only feasible means Of drought
relief as well as a complete and ef-
fective method Of controlling the two
annual floods on the Missouri river
8. w. Thompson, president Of the
Diversion association, said "the ex-
cellent contributions to navigation
found in other proposals leave en-
tirely out Of the question the acute
suffering among the agricultural
areas Of North and South Dakota and
part Of Minnesota and these, we feel
should Be prime considerations Of the
federal government"
One Of the diversion proponents
said the approval Of the Fort Peck
project improves our chances, be-
cause II they approved that PROPOSE

AMBASSADOR WINS PRAISE

Geneva, Oct. 17.-(P)-The search
for the road to world peace through
disarmament spread from Geneva
Tuesday to the capitals Of Europe.
With the disarmament conference
in recess until October IS, representa-
tives hurried homeward to devise new
plans to meet the emergency created
by Germany's withdrawal.
Many believed the government OF
Adolf Hitler might be drawn back
into the discussions.
Others expressed convict ION IT
would be necessary to take . unified
stand without Germany.
As foreign offices in all capitals
buzzed with these possibilities. there
was comment. too. on the statement
.of Norman H. Davis, United States
ambassador at large.
Defining the position Of the Amer
lean delegation, Davis frankly said:
I'VE again make clear that we In
no way are politically aligned with
any European powers. Such unity Of
purposes as existed has been entire
~ on world disarmament matters"
Question for Europe
whether or not lie added, "con-
6itions are favorable to continue the
present disarmament effort is now a
question for Europe and not the
United States to decide"
In the weeks consultations be
tween the capitals OF Europe" Davis
said, the United States would take no
part.
But the Americans move for tenn
porary release from the conversations
could not dull the glowing terms with
which appreciation Of his delegations
efforts were expressed.
Had 1t not been for Davis, some of
the delegates recalled, permanent adj
tournment might have been voted in

cided upon.
Then, the new opportunity Of

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Dec. 26.-
Two policemen, struck down by bull
let's as they stood at signal box
here Christmas eve, were slain while
they were about to make an arrest,
their superiorS theorized today.
Not long before they met death,
patrolmen Patrick j. Murray, 40,
and Edward H. Kelly, Al, had at
tended mass together. Police Su-
perintendent Edward J. Kelly said
that a theory that these two good
friends were victims Of murder and
suicide was too remote for consid-
Grafton"
The superintendent theory that
the officers were killed by some one
they were about to arrest was based
on the testimony of eight witnesses,
none of whom actually saw the
shooting
To Superintendent Kelly it ap-
peared reasonable that the men
were slain in this fashion:
Kelly and Murray went to the
signal box together, their beats
merging at that point A moment
before they reached it, they re-
turned the Christmas greetings of
a friend, who described them as en-
gagged in pleasant conversation.
Murray opened the box with his
back to Kelly, whose attention was

doorway of 1876 Union street.
He turned and saw a man there
The man seized Kelly's gun with a
downward motion, placed it against
Kelly's head and fired A moment
later he shot and killed Murray
who had turned but was unable to
reach his own revolver. Then the
man dropped the gun by Kelly'S side

that mere trickle of 100000
LESS than tobacco and beer taxes
alone probably will bring.
1t is very unlikely that revenue
from income taxes ever will fall
so low again, now that there are
more incomes to tax, and plugs
are about to be inserted in some
of the more gaping leaks.
The deficit on regular operating
expenses Of the government is
being cut down. 1t was $780,
100000 in the fiscal year 1892, and
$1,786,000,000 in 1888. For the
fiscal year 1884 it now seems pos
sible that there will be no deficit
on regular operating expenses
that the government will take in
enough money to pay its running
expenses and all its interest and
sinking fund charges.
And they are some charges!
During the next fiscal year the
government must dig up some
$8O0,000,00O just to pay the in
terest on what it owes, and an
other $500,00000O for sinking
fund, or savings piled up to meet
debts as they come due.
These charges mount, of course,
as the public debt mounts. This
had reached $23,050, 256,717 at the
end of October. Some authorities
estimate that if none Of the new

But they agree that even If
such an unheard-of peak were
reached, the resources of the gov
eminent would carry it.
But up to now, the debt Of

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-The story
Of how the American museum Of
natural history came into posses

Of existing airplanes-the machine
in which Colonel and Mrs. Charles
A. Lindbergh recently completed a
3O,OOO-mile tour Of four continents
was revealed today.
F. Trubee Dawson, president of
the Museum, was informed by a
breathless assistant Thursday that
Colonel Lindbergh wished 70 speak
to him on the telephone. Colonel
Lindbergh had spoken but mo-
ment when Mr. Dawson too was
breathless. The Colonel had asked
permission to donate the plane and
all Of its equipment Mr.. Dawson
lost no time in accepting.
Offer a Surprise
The offer was a complete sur
prise. There had been no intima-
ton that he contemplated giving up
the machine which, in addition to
its recent exploit, carried him and
Mrs Lindbergh to China and en-
abled them TO establish new
transcontinental record in 1880.
Mr. Davidson Immediately ar
ranged for a conference with Col
onel and Mrs. Lindbergh, and they
agreed to deliver the plane some
time between Christmas and New
Year. Colonel Lindbergh at first
seemed reluctant to give up the

to attempt to establish your suit
it might be advisable for you to
consider opening a short suit, hop
ing that may be your partners suit
and that, in this manner. you may
break down the defense of the op-
ponents.
Some players, however, like to
open short suits against a no trump
This is not advisable, since it will
work only in rare cases, and the
following hand is one of those.
When East arrived at a three no
trump contract, South had every
right to believe, due to the fact
that East and West were vulner-
able, that East held at least four
hearts to the king-ten and possibly
five hearts.
He reasoned it would be useless tc
open his heart suit, as the oppo-
nents probably held diamonds anc
clubs, and perhaps a heart leac
would be just the thing that woulo
give them the extra trick needed
for game.
y
THEREFORE,, when this hanc
l. was played, South opened hi:
singleton ten of diamonds, which
East won with the jack. A dia-
mond immediately was returned
South discarding the seven Of
hearts.
The ten of clubs was played
from dummy. North covered with
the jack. East played the queen anc
South won the trick with the king
He Immediately cashed his three
diamonds in dummy. On the first
diamond South discarded the sever
of spades.
On the second diamond he re-
allied that if he discarded the deuce
of spades the declarer would be able
to throw him in and force him tc
lead a heart-and, as East had not
played spades. he reasoned that his
partner, North, must hold the jack
Of spades.
South, therefore, let go his queer
OF spades. On the seven of dia-
monds East discarded the three oil
hearts. The three of club next was
played. East won with the ace anc
South completed his neat unlock
ing play by dropping the king Of
spades.
Now there was no play that East
could make which would allow him
to make his contract, as North was
bound to get in with the jack Of
spades. Thus, North and South
cashed three hearts and a spade
together with the king of clubs
enough TO defeat the contract.
