 Pending further developments in the case Roberts will be detained in the county Jail. Within the next month he will be given a hearing before a federal judge.

 The story follows: T shall not depominate vocabulary building dead study, for that term presup- poses previous life, a period of de- cadence and subsequent death. But I can irrefutably call it neglected or overlooked. To be sure, sporadic attempts have been and are being made to stimulate interest in this ineffably interesting and important work, but 1t seems that the birth and death of many of these at- tempts are practically simultan- eous.

 The late Irwin H. Hoover. chief White House usher, said in his memoirs that the chief executive usually became "The President" to the first lady within year of his taking office. Not so with Mrs Roosevelt, however.
 She sometimes leases Mir RooSe- welt by calling him "The Presi- dent"
 Its just for fun," Mrs Roose- welt explains with an added ob- servation:, .r
 Tt depends upon what I want to take up with him whether I call him Franklin or The President"
 Mrs Roosevelt also has found it possible to have informality ill the White House with the family's friends. although it is necessary to maintain formality when entertain ing officially. ..I

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A surge upward in the general
morale of drought belt inhabitants,
due to scattering rains. was reported
by telephone today to Harry L. Hop
kins, relief administrator.
Hopkins said reports indicated the
rains also would save the Govern
ment considerable money through
benefit TO forage crops. Approximately
5000, 900 900 has been allocated for
such crops in Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Iowa.
There was no letdown, however in
relief efforts. The rains came too late
to save many crops.
Farmers Reluctant to Sell.
The rains. Hopkins said, already
have created resistance to the Farm
Administrations cattle-buying pro-
gram. In many instances farmers
who last week we're willing to sell
their live stock because of lack of
water now do not want to sell.
Hopkins appointed five liaison OFF,
GERS to work under the direction of
Lawrence Westbrook, assistant ad-
ministrator, in connection with the
rural rehabilitation program. They
are T. p. Lee, Memphis, for the South
Central States; A. D. Cobb. Newark.
Del, for the Eastern States; A. G..
Smith, Atlanta, for the Southeastern
States; E. F. Graf. Ames, Iowa, for
the West Central States. and Harry
Carroll, Spokane, for the Western
States.
In addition, four Laison representa-
tives will work under the general su-
pervision of c. w. Warburton. extern
sion service director of the Agricul-
tural Department. They are Paul "
Maris, Corvallis. Oreg., for the West
ern States; S. B. Cleland, Minneapolis
for the Central States; w. B. Flory,
State College, Pa, for the Eastern
States; w. T. Bennett, Atlanta, for
the Southern States.
Contracts to 19 Packers.
Carrying on the A. A. AS cattle
buying program, the Federal Surplus
Relief Corporation today awarded con-
tracts to 19 packing houses to process
approximately 228,000 head of cattle
and about 1876 900 calves being pur-
chased in the drought area
The beef will be canned and dis
tributed to needy unemployed.
The first movement of this live
stock, it was announced, will start
shortly in North and South Dakota
Minnesota and Wisconsin. The buy
ing program will be spread to other
States shortly.

Hopkins also expects the stranded

steam shortly. He estimated that f.

from cities and towns to farms by
