Drought Skaters Records
For Losses, Sufferings

are frequent occurrences in this
country. They struck in 1881,
in 1894, and later in 1901, 1911,
1916 and 1924.
Those of 1881 and 1894 burned
an area almost comparable with
the present disaster.
The Government has started
moves from two directions to off
set these recurring destructive
spells. From surveys made
ahead of the present drought a
series of water conservation and
development projects are now
under way in western States,
financed by more than 800 million
dollars in public works funds.
DR.. Elwood Mead, reclamation
expert, declared if the Govern
ment's huge Boulder Dam prof.
ect had been started when it
was first placed before Con-
gress, there would be no water
shortage in that area today"
In addition to development OF
water and conservation programs,
Is million dollars has been set
aside by the Government for
transfer of farm populations from
unproductive farms and sections
all over the country to better
locations.
Today the Government is caring
for more than 100000 drought
impoverished families through
work relief, with the prospect of
an increase.

The drought, raging over half
the United States, today had
broken all records, with no relief
in sight.
The previous record was made
by the 1930-31 drought. Some
Western areas, in the Dakotas
and Montana, never experienced
complete relief from this first
calamity before the present long
dry period descended.
Not only is the current disaster
record-breaker, but it is world
wide in scope.
Besides burning the crops of
more than half of the counties
in half of the States of Amer
lea, it has seriously blighted
virtually every major producing
area of the world, including
every province of Canada.
Worst on Record
The Weather Bureau reported,
after the 1880 drought, that it
"easily takes first place in the
Genealogical history of the coun-
try" Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace, after looking over the
present drought territory, said it
is far worse than the earlier
attack.
Records show that droughts
