ST LOUIS, March 31.-Tornadic winds, accompanied by rain, hail and lightning, have killed at least 21 persons in three states.
 The twisting terror swooped down on towns and villages in East Texas, Northwestern Louisiana and Southwest Arkansas and apparent ly blew out in Northeastern Louis jana.
 No accurate estimate of the num- ber Of injured can be made, but reports over crippled communica- tion channels from the storm area indicated more than 100 persons have been hurt.
 No large cities are reported to have been struck by the winds.
 Desolate Scenes
 Desolate mmunities and wrecked homes marked the zigzag path of the storm which swept out of the Southwest, striking at Lansdale, on the edge of the Tex as Oil Fields where two men were killed, then swept on to wreck havoc at Mabank, St. Augustine Shelbyville and Huntington, in Texas, then Hall and Summit in Louisiana and Mount Holly in Ar kansas.
 Houses Scattered
 Threes were torn up and houses scattered like straws before the wind in a strip half a mile wide and three miles long.
 Houses collapsed on the occu- pants before they knew a storm was upon them.
 It is feared that damage has been severe in the negro commun- ity near St. Augustine from where no reports were available late this afternoon.

 Quickly Lost

NEW YORK, March 31.-The Stock Market dipped today as rails were unsettled by Missouri Pacific's reorganization petition filed with the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion.
 Many issues were off one to more than three points and the close was weak. Transfers were also 1 100000 shares.
 Utilities sagged and with the slump in rails, the list gave way rather easily.
 Rally, Then Drop
 The list showed some inclina- tions to rally earlier with sugar, alcohol, tobacco and farm imple- ments being in some demand, but these small gains were quickly lost.
 Among the issues losing two to three points were Consolidated Gas, Union Pacific, New York Central, Santa Fe, Delaware and Hudson, Al erican Telephone, Eastman, Owens Illinois Glass.
 Issues off one point or more included United States Steel American Can, Allied Chemical, Case, Northern Pacific and Mis- sori Pacific.

Arizona Pardon Board Re- fuses to Commute
 Death Sentence
EXECUTION DATE IS
 POSTPONED ONE WEEK
Appeal May Be Taken to High Court or Insan-
 ity Hearing Given

PHOENIX, Arizona, March 31.-The Arizona State Board of PardOns and Paroles has denied the communication of the death sentence imposed on Winnie Ruth Judd for the staying of two Juneau, AL aska, wOm e n, in ArizOna's celebrated trunk murders.
 The Board, however, grant ed a reprieve until April 21 to avoid the execution of the death sentence on Good Fri day, April IA, the original date set.
 Gov. B. B. Moeur, under the Arizona law, has no pow CT to commute the sentence without recommendation of the B oard of Pardons and Paroles.
 May Appeal
 An appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States seems to be the only possibility to prevent the young woman from hanging, said O. V. Williams, Mrs. Judd's coun- sel.
 There is, however, another slender hope, besides the appeal to the highest court of the land, con- tinued Williams, and that is Mrs. Judd might be taken before san ity commission.
 Sentenced for Murder
 Mrs. Judd was sentenced to hang for the murder of Mrs Agnes Anne LeRoi, Juneau nurse. She has never been tried for the staying of Miss Hedvig Samuelson, school teacher of Juneau An attempt was made on Wednesday of this week to have a date set for the trial on that charge but it failed when Judge Howard 0. Speakman dismissed the murder information saying he considered another trial would only be waste of time and that in the first trial she had . fair and impartial presentation of her case.
 Self-Defense Plea
 In her plea to the Board of Par dons and Paroles, Mrs. Judd de- clared she killed both women in defense of her own life in a fight in which they were the aggressors.
 The Supreme Court of the State of Arizona has already ruled that Mrs. Judd had a fair and impartial trial.
 At the State Prison at Florence. Mrs. Judd. when informed of the action of the Board of Pardons and Paroles. appeared stunned" at the ruling.
 Bodies Dismembered
 The killings of Mrs. LeRoi and Miss Samuelson occurred here on the night of October 16, 1881. The bodies were dismembered and ship ped to Los Angeles in trunks, .s baggage. Mrs. Judd was soon ap- prehended and her trial, on the charge of killing Mrs. LeRoi soon followed and conviction obtained.

WINNIE RUTH JUDD NOW FACES DEATH ON GALLONS
Germans Unite to Demand Arms; Military
 Spirit Is No,u Dominating Entire Nation
By LOUIS P. LOCHNER

BERLIN, March 31.-Unless the signs are misleading, Germ many again will be a military nation be- fore another year is past.
 Outwardly it already has mili- tary aspect. The brown uniforms of Chancellor Adolf Hitler's na- tional socialist storm troops dom- mate the street scene.
 Protected by the police and hay ing the sympathy of the regular army of 100000 permitted by the treaty of Versailles, these 100000 brown shirts confidently await the movement when universal military training shall have been restored in the fatherland.
 Masses Ask Universal Training And not only these S00,O00 believe in a conscript army of militia. Sc do the 100000 world war veterans who drill with the steel helmet association. So do the vast ma jority of the millions of voters who cast ballots for Hitler in recent elections and for President von Hindenburg a year ago.
 Nor is the enthusiasm for mili- tary training confined to the na- tionalistic parties of the right.
 Heinrich Bruening, centrist leader when he was chancellor never made a secret of his belief that every male citizen should be taught to shoulder a rifle.
 Socialists Like General Idea
 The rep u blican reichsbanner made up chiefly of socialists with fair sprinkling of centrists, was outspokenly in favor of the nation al "curatorium for strengthening youth formed under the aegis of General Wilhelm Groener, former minister of defense and as staunch a republican as ever held cabinet seat in postwar Germany. That plan contemplated mass training in setting-up exercises, sealing walls and similar military stunts and in teaching youth to obey commands.
 Roughly speaking it can be as- serted that only a small faction of the socialists, the consistent paci- fists and the communists are op- posed to re-introduction of con- scription.
 Moreover the communists opposi- ton is based less upon pacific ideals, than upon their conception that a conscript army in a non- soviet country would be but a tool of capitalism for subjugating the working classes. That is also the position of many socialists.
 Chancellor Adolf Hitler is count ed upon to carry out plans for a peoples army. His party has been committed from the beginning to
  that idea and it's whole organization is along military lines.
 All over Germany leaders and sub-leaders among the storm troops and the steel helmeters are expect ing the summons to help organize Germany's new conscript militia.
 Officers of the reichswehr, or regular army, also are eager for the day when the dumping goose step shall resound once more along the German streets and by-ways.
 Promotion in the small, select professional army has been slow. A conscript army would make bet ter jobs for all these professional soldiers.

"Have babies for health" is
the advice of the Children's Blu
reau of the U. S. Department of
Labor, contained in a newly re-
vised edition of the folder What
Builds Babies"
The folder declares:
"Many women are in better
health after having a baby
than ever before"
Need Not Lose Teeth
The folder decries the old say
ing, For every child a tooth" "
It says:
"The saying only shows that
in the past expectant mothers
did not have the proper food.
For it is true that in case Of
food shortage or a poor selec-
tiOn Of food the mother Suf-
fers first. The baby will take
certain materials from the
mothers body if it doesn't get
it in her food. But if she
is on an adequate diet the old
saying is untrue"
"When the mother is proper
ly fed the baby has a better
chance for health"

Simple menus for women Of
average weight are suggested and
also for those who are under or
over the proper weight. The
amount of food needed varies,
from about 1000 calories for the
overweight woman to about 1000
for one underweight or one obliged
to do hard work.
Food Selection Explained
Whatever the diet may include,
the folder warns, it should be
planned so that the first 1000
calories are provided by the pro-
tective foods. These foods are
called the daily dietary essen
tial."
They are one quart of milk, one
raw vegetable salad, one egg, one
citrus fruit or tomato, one cooked
green leafy vegetable, and one
serving of whole grain cereal or
bread.
To these dietary essentials must
be added meat, fish, potatoes,
bread and butter, sugar, and
fruit deserts. Plenty of liquid is
needed to complete the diet.
