NATIONAL FARM STRIKE
IN COLLAPSE; WILL SOON
BE FORMALLY CALLED OFF

The association. led by Milo
Reno of Des Moines. Iowa, urged
all farmers to buy nothing, sell
nothing and pay no debts or taxes
until farm produce prices were
fixed to guarantee price of pro-
duction.
After the strike was called,
governors of five midwestern
states met at Des Moines,' heard
100 witnesses, went to Washing
ton and were refused a govern
ment promise of price fixing.
During the weeks that followed,
IL dairy plants were dynamited
in Wisconsin. two men met death
because of picketing, many men
were wounded in sporadic fight
ing. and thousands of dollars
worth of property were destroye L..
Despite these developments, re-
ports showed that business in
creased in sections were there was
no picketing. Claims were made
that only a small percent of the
farmers joined in the activities.
The most spectacular develop
ments were reported in Wisconsin

that state voted last night to quit
striking, the principal part of the
strike was over,

How To Make
NRAComplaints

Printed forms on which persons
may file complaints of NRA vio-
lations and also the presidents
unemployment agreement have
been distributed to postmasters
throughout the country by the
NRA, according to information
received here.
Names of compliments will be
kept secret in accordance with a
plan announced some time ago,
and the complaints will go di-
rectly to local and district COM
pliance boards. These forms have
been distributed following re-
ceipts of thousands Of letters
complaining of "chiselers" and
code violators.
Many of the letters pouring in
to Washington regarding viola
tors of the NRA and presidents
agreement are not self-explana-
tory, it was said, and these forms
are for the convenience of those
who feel warranted in reporting
individuals or firms which they
believe are violating the specific
provisions of codes.
In order to prevent "spite'
complaints, space is provided for
notarization or certification by
one or more witnesses familiar

Judge Schenck Opens No.
vember Term Superior

The November term of the su-

ty convened this morning at 10
o'clock with Judge Michael
Schenck presiding.
The court will be in session for
two weeks and will hear civil &C
tons only. A light docket faces
the court, and the entire two
weeks will probably not be neces-
sary to complete the calendar.
In the court this morning the
case of William H. Oates against
the Wachovia Bank and Trust
company, in which the plaintiff
is seeking $4,000 actual and
$4,000 punitive damages for al
legged SANDER, was continued to
the next term.
The case was continued because
Judge Schenck is related to the
plaintiff. The court set the case
per-empptorally as the first case
to be heard in the next term, and
requested that the bar make this
order effective.

ago, Mrs. r. P. Freeze said today
in outlining what is being done III
this way, approximately 100 quilts

and an appeal is being made for
the gift of material, it being eX-
planned that any scraps, whether
cotton or wooden can be used. any
garment that would not be fit to
offer anyone for wear can still be
used in this new work. The only
request made by the Red Cross IN
this appeal is that the scraps and
anv garments offered be clean.
All the work done in this de-
partment of Red Cross service IS

furnish the cotton and the lining
for the quilts but it is asked OF
the local people that they provide
the remainder of the materials.
The material will be received

Alexander Troyanovsky has been
officially proposed by the Soviet
government as it's first ambassa-
dor to the United States, and has
been accepted by the state de-
partment as persona grata, the
United Press learned last night.
The state department notified
Soviet Foreign Commissar Maxim

Troyanovsky was entirely accept
able to the United States. 1t had
been authoritatively reported that
he would be the Soviet selection.
Boris Skvirsy. Russia's former
unofficial ambassador" to the
United States, has been named as
charge d'affaires to look after the
Soviets' interest in Washington
until an ambassador is appointed
formally, the United Press also
learned
Designation of Troyanovsky is
a broad Soviet wink in the direc-
ton of Japan. The new Russian
ambassador has occupied only one
diplomatic post and that was To-
kio. He is expert on Far Eastern,
particularly japanese affairs.
By choosing him as their first
envoy to the United States, the
Soviet leaders made it clear to the
world that they regard Japan as
the most burning problem con-
fronting Soviet and American
foreign policy and that it will be
Troyanovsky's task to effectuate
unstinted cooperation with Amer
lea in the Orient.
