Stratosphere Flyers Are Among
Most Daring and Eff
cient.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
RAPID CITY, S. D., July 23.-The
men picked for today's stratosphere
fight are three of Americas most dar-
ing and efficient airmen-Maj. VIII

Capt. Stevens Is considered the
Army's outstanding aerial photog-
rapher.
Capt. Anderson is one of the Army's
foremost balloonists
Altitude fights are routine with
these birdmen. They have spent MANY
hours far above the clouds. and while
the stratosphere is something new for
then the high altitude holds no ter
rors SO far as they are concerned.
Maj Kepner. a native of CassviIle
Ind, is but Al years old At Is he
entered the United States Marine
Corps as q private, and for three
years served in the Philippine Islands.
Then he spend three years at Lake
hurst, where he earned a naval Ger

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
u. S. Cattle-Purchase
Program Proving
Huge Operation.

A REALLY huge operation In
n the battle against the forces
IL Of Nature Is being carried on
4 \ by the Government without
being made generally manifest
70 the public. This Is the cattle
buying program Of the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration In con-
nectson with the drought. II Is a
doubie-edged performance and has
the purpose Of killing two birds with
one stone II is, at the same time,
an emergency relief effort and an
attack on the hideous anomaly Of
want in the midst Of plenty.
The problem was not so much how
70 get surpluses into needy areas
as how 10 do II without dislocating
the existing system and doing injury
To normal business and upsetttng
markets
Distress Das so great in some
quarters. hotGeDer, that II had to

totDdrd the close Of the session,

drought relief

realized that the plight Of cattle
raisers, with millions of head of dying
cattle on their hands, demanded i'm
mediate action. A A. A. men put
their heads together with F. E. r. A.
and worked out a plan A. A. A.
would buy the cattle, +. e. r. A.
would slaughter them and distribute
the meat to the needy.
Present Machinery Used.
Evening star., 1934-07-28

Cattle in drought areas which are
not sent Immediately TO slaughter are
saved by being transported to regions
where there has been adequate rain
fall and the pastures are still green.
In this process, the animals take long
railroad Journeys and are unloaded in
places a thousand or more miles from
home.
Trainloads of them from the plains
of the Dakotas, Nebraska and Kansas
are arriving daily in Virginia, Georgia
Maryland and other States where
there is still feed for them.
The next problem which is being
considered-Shifting families from the
localities where they have been rem
dered destitute and where there is no
possibility, for some time to come, of
their making a living-win not be
so easy. There. Government planners
viii come up against human inertia
and the human will and are likely to
encounter resistance. The dumb
beasts have no say in the matter. but
the people. If they behave according
to precedent. are sure to assert their
right 10 live where they please with
out interference. even If IL involves
them IN certain misery. Mere Sug-
gestion Of such plan has already re-

Market Agreement Approval Held Up

CHICAGO, July 2s CF1.-Federal
conciliators may reach for the N. R.
A. code to end the Union Stock Yards
strike.
The Chicago Tribune says pro-
vision on minimum wages, believed to
be contained In the code, would settle
the principal point of difference in
the controversy.
Such q code, to apply to all stock
yards, was drafted recently in wash
ington, but its approval has been
held up.
The Government is especially aIix-
ious to end the strike. the newspaper
said, lot only because of the effects of
the tie-up on the live stock marked,
but also because it has brought to .
halt the Federal Surplus Relief Corp's
program OF buying starving cattle IN
droughtyegions.

A A. A. decided TO use the ma
chinery of the Department of Agri-
cultures Bureau Of Animal Industry
TO work the plan The Bureau Of
Animal Industry has cattle inspec-
tors all over the country. When an
area has been designated by the
drought experts as an emergency
region, the cattle inspectors move in
and start to buy cattle from farmers
who want to sell.
Already these inspectors have visit
ed l0l,759 farms in II States. They
have purchased 81 per cent of the
cattle on those farms. Most of the
purchases were made in the Dakotas
Minnesota and Texas. OF the |, $685.
332 head of cattle bought that way,
about 10 per cent had to be con-
demned as unfit for food purposes
The cost OF these cattle Is estimated
at between $7ooo.ooo and $4,000. 900
A. A. AS part OF the job ends
Nth the purchase OF the cattle.
As soon as the animals are bought,
they become the property OF F. E.
r. AS surplus relief corporation. p
p Z. r.. A., through its State and
local relief organizations, ships the
cattle from the farms to the nearest
meat-packing center. The principal
markets TO which cattle have beer
shipped are Chicago. Kansas City
East st. Louis, South st. Paul. Wichi-
Ia, Omaha and Sioux City.
Meat Is Preserved.
At these certerS the cattle are
slaughtered and the meat canned, 10
be distributed among the needy next
Winter. The meat never comes into
competition with meat that moves
through the business channels, since
it will be distributed free to people
who otherwise would not buy
The packing firms which slaughter
and can the meat for the Government
are paid q fee for their part OF the
work. but the meat remains Govern
ment property.
There is one point where the trick
Government finds itself competing
with private business.
That is in connection with the
hides of the animals. The hides are
worth good deal Of money, and the
Government has been letting the
meat packers keep the hides as part
payment for their services.
But, unlike the meat, the hides
are not kept OF the market. They

Both sides were deadlocked and
there was no immediate prospect Of

Protests of military rule. however,

GASOLINE STATION
PERMIT PROTESTED
Planning Commission Would
Cancel Authority for
Structure.

The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission was on record
today as opposed unanimously TO
erection Of a gasoline service station
at Constitution and Louisiana ave-
nues. The commission also wants
the Shipstead-L act invoked to
remedy the situation.
The commission passed this mo-
ton:
We recommend that the permit
for q gas station at Constitution and
Louisiana avenues and Third street
be rescinded and that the powers Of
the Shipstead act be invoked to bring
about a proper development"
Act Already Invoked.
The Fine Arts Commission already
has sanctioned plans for the gas sta
ton, and its executive secretary, H. p.
Caemmerer, declared, after being ad-
vised of the Planning Commissions
action, that the power of the Ship
Stead-Luee act already had been in
voked when his commission insisted

to erect the station. secure good
architect. The design, he added, viii
be pleasing architectrally.
The regulations Of the Zoning Com
mission, which has the affected area
designated as second commercial, per-
mitted the erection Of an oil station at
Constitution and Louisiana avenues,
Caemmerer said, leaving his commits
sion only with leeway In urging a
good architect and a competent
design.
Cite Lease Provis0.
Further, Caemmerer pointed out,
the Bliss estate, which owns the
land, has leased II TO the American
OH Co., with a proviso that If within
so days someone should want to
purchase the property the building
would have to be torn down. Under
these conditions, the executive seere-
tary said, the oil f1rm could not be
expected to erect marble building.
The commission recognizes that this
is a temporary proposition, and the
oil company Is going to q great deal
of expense because 1t realizes the
station will be IN an important loca-
tion. Arthur B. Heaton, local archi-
tect, designed the new gasoline sta
