Britain Gets Word Her 'Storming'
Over Roosevelt Debt Policy Makes
Americans Determined To Collect

"The real question however is
that here is debt. Either the

an impartial judge would hold
that the people who used the
money should pay it back"
Senator James Couzens r.,

GENEVA, June 2.-(UP).-
Maxim Litvinoff yesterday for
mally moved that the general
arms conference be transferred
into a permanent conference for
peace"
The Russian statesman de-
nounced the British proposal for
a limited disarmament treaty. He
admitted an arms accord could
not be reached at present, due to
international unrest and suspicion
but insisted the progress made in
the last two years should not be
tossed aside.
Litvinoff urged a political COM
mission conference, as distin-
guished from the arms commits
sion parley, be summoned imme-
diately to discuss security meas
ures demanded by France.
His motion was the high spot
in the commissions session at
which various delegates set forth
their stand on arms control. 1t
met with widespread opposition,
not only from the British-who
favor returning the arms mandate
to the league council-but lesser

Spectacular Fire
In California Oil
Field Quenched

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Cal,
Jan. 2. (UP).-A spectacular oil
field fire caused approximately a
half million dollars damage be-
fore being brought under con-
troll here early today.
There were no known casual
ties.
Four workmen fled just before
the first of q series of terrific
explosions.
The explosions were felt at
Long Beach arousing fears that
they were an earthquake. Fire
started in a firebox boiler into
which a five-inch stream of gas
poured from a. broken filling
tank hose and spread to nearby
derrickS.
Six of them were destroyed
and dozen storage tanks were

STOCK MARKET
BILL ENACTED
To Be On Presidents Desk
Monday for Signature
by Him

WASHINGTON, June 2. (UP).
Congress yesterday finally ap-
proved strict federal regulation of
stock exchanges and placed a
damper on reckless speculation.
Both senate and house agreed
to the conference report on the
long-disputed and much-revised
bill. That was last congressional
action needed to carry out Pres
ident Roosevelt's mandate for
rigid control of securities mar
kets.
The bill will be on the presi-
dents desk for his signature when
he returns Monday. 1t will take
effect July l, bringing the ex-
changes under federal supervision
for the first time in history.
House approval of the confer
ence came swiftly after the DEM
ocratic leadership gagged a Re-
publican filibuster against admin
istration measures. There was no
record vote and only a few MIN
utes' discussion.
The senate also authorized con-
tinuance of its stock market in
vestigation into the next session,
but leaders said this was only q
formality, with no new inquiries
planned.
Yesterdays action ended a lone
struggle by President Roosevelt
and congress to protect hapless
investigators and to curb wild
speculation which many econom'
lists blame for the stock market
collapse of 1929 and its contribu
ton to the depression.

Death TOLL IN
MIDWEST AREA
IS AT LEAST 40
Terrific Temperatures Re-
corded, as Crops Con-
tinue to Burn
LOSS OVER MILLION
DOLLARS PER DAY

CHICAGO, June 2.-CUP).-
A death toll of at least forty
already has been rolled up by the
burning heat wave sweeping east
ward after driving temperatures
in the middlewest to unprecedent-
ed heights.
A survey show fatalities in II
states due either directly to the
torturing sun or drownings, in
CURED as the populace sought re-
lief in lakes and pools.
The heat wave today spread
death and crop destruction across
a third of the nation. The wealth
er forecast offered no immediate
general relief.
The heat was most intense in
the drought-ridden middlewestern
and northwestern states. At least
10 deaths and scores of heat pres
trations resulted yesterday.
The normally cool inland. lakes
region of Wisconsin sweltered in
temperatures that reached 106 at
Kenosha. In Chicago, where Ia
reading of SO set an all-time May
record yesterday, an all-time early
June record of 102 was estab-
lished yesterday.
At Morris, ILL.,, the temperature
yesterday reached 107, and al
Marion, Ind, a new June record
of 102 was made. VincenneS
Ind, recorded 101; Davenport
Ia, 1903; Sterling, ILL.,, 1903: Cleve+
land, 81; Indianapolis, 95.3, al
all-time June 1 record, and Mil
waukee set an all-time record Of
103.
The weather for today was for
scattered showers. Cooling north
west winds may afford some re-
lief. The heat affected every part
of the country except New Eng
land and the Pacific coast.
The heat shriveled crops ova
the area where lack of moisture
over a period of 10 months al
ready had caused an acute condi-
ton. The damage to wheat alone
was estimated at more than ST.
100000 a day.
Predictions of a short wheat,
corn and oats crop sent prices
soaring on the Chicago grain ex-
changes. A wave of profit-taking
and stop-loss orders in the closing
minutes pulled prices down to
fractional losses for the day.
At the close, wheat was 10
cents above the low of last week /;
corn IA cents higher and oats up
II cents. Prime beef and pork
