PASTORS MUST
 OBEY THE NAZIS

Berlin, Aug 1O-(UP)-Pastors in opposition to complete Nazi- fication of the Protestant church in Germany prepared today to wage a losing battle against the dictatorship set up by the Hitler regime. The national synod of the Evangelical church voted at an emergency meeting yesterday for q project setting up Reichsbishop Ludwig Mueller as supreme ruler of the church.

The synod and the inde- pendent state synods and church have no further power to legislate. all power being vested in Mueller and his church cabinet. It was ex- pected pastors esisting the new regime would be severely disci- plined and perhaps suppressed if they continue to resist.

BY MACK JOHNSON

 Washington, Aug 10.-CUP)- Naturalization of silver to-day sent inflationists and hard money advocates into bitter controversy as to whether it constituted infla- tion. The government made ready to print $100,000, 1000 in sil- yer certificates as quickly as pos sible.
 President Roosevelts proclama- tion and executive order seizing all domestic silver. except newly mined within ninety days will mean is- suance of the new silver certifi- cates as rapidly "as the presses can turn them out" Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr said.
 The congressional inflationary bloc headed by Senator Elmer D. Thomas. D., Okla, mailed the seiz- ure as a boon for farmers from the standpoint that it will be easier for them to pay their debts.
 Hard money advocates, however, pointed out that the new issuance of silver certificates is a mere drop in the bucket" compared ..t to the nearly haif Billion dollars in notes now in circulation.

 Government experts, scanning maps and instruments, predicted relentless continuation of the tragedy.
 Scattered showers fell, but only as a mockery to farmers who are selling standing corn at $2 an acre as fodder. In almost demoniac fashion the clouds opened in a torrent near Morrison, Colo., last night, taking at least four lives and causing $20,000 damage.
 Lightning killed a man in Texas and three others were injured by collapse of a building before a gale.
 Elsewhere the most damaging drought of the nations history was unabated. Heat waves danced over the burned ground like the breath of a furnace and scores of deaths unofficially were attributed to heat exhaustion.
 Fifteen major cities experienced temperatures of 100 degrees or
