Miss Marian Sprinkle, presi,
dent of the B. S. u, intro
duced the speaker, whose subject
was Journalism, or the Newspaper
Business.
The speaker said newspapers
are classed as manufacturing en-
terprises in some cases-they
manufacture a product-much of
journalism nowadays is concerned
with business-so a newspaper is a
business and an industry, but it is
much more. On the pages Of the
newspaper is spread daily the
news of community, state, coun-
try and world; and on the news
papers editorial page effort Is
made to interpret this news for
readers and to place before them
the views and opinions of the
newspaper concerning matters OF
public interest and Importance.
Because of the principles for
which it stands and the policies
advocated, the information it con-
veys and the inspiration it sup
plies the public, the newspaper
has become a great power IN
modern life; and this opportun-
ity for service to the people
makes of the newspaper an enter
prise that stands in a class alone
and removes it from the classltl-
cation of enterprises that are
merely business or industrial, the
speaker said.
In concluding the talk, the
speaker explained what is com,

Treaty Denunciation Bring

French Memorandum
By WALLACE CARROLL

GENEVA, April 15.-(UP)-
The French memorandum on Ger
man rearmament was published
last night. 1t warned that unless
the League of Nations council
acted to check unilateral denunci-
alton of treaty obligations, the
only policy left for France or any
other powers would be force of
arms.
The memorandum, submitted
with the approval of Britain and
Italy at Stresa, explained Frances
alarm at Adolf Hitler's bold dec
laration he intended to proceed
with CONSUMPTION and restoration
of the Reich's military strength.
A firm demand for action by
the special league council session
converting today was embodied in
the document. 1t said, in part:
off in Europe this method of
unilateral denunciation of inter-
national engagements became
general, there would be no room
for any policy except one of
force.
"Pacifis nations are seeking to
establish a comprehensive system
of collective security among

NATIONS WEATHER PAVES WAY

Growing Conditions in
County Ideal; Drouth,
Dust, Late Plant
ing Elsewhere
By ]. II. DEAN

There has been more raln1all
in Tennessee and adjoining states
this spring than any spring for
81 years. This has delayed plant
ing of all crops throughout the
southeastern states.
Due to this unusual "wet spell,
farmers are behind in their work
and many of them will not plant
the crops that they had intended
planting. In our opinion this Will
result in a distressing shortage IN
produce throughout the year,
Government work and industrial
activity will be greatly increased
this year over last year and there
will be a stronger demand for all
farm products, and especially
vegetables.
We must remember that our
southern neighbors have not oeen
able to plant either-hence we
can grow vegetables for the mar.
ket as early as they can. In TACT
MANY of them will not grow thelr
usual quantity of vegetables TOT
this section, hence it seems that
the market would be greatly III
favor of the local producers
The truth of the matter IS the
drouth and dust storms OF the me
west and the unusual rains OF the
southeast have placed farmers IN
this section in a fovored position;
The wet weather only means that
ali crops will be three or four
weeks later than usual. Inc SUD-
soils of our section, however, are re,
thoroughly saturated with water
and there is ample reserve mols-
f H,q to TO carry the crops through.
The springs are bold, the creeks
are M the wells and cisterns and
nonds are full. The crops of this
section will stand three or four
weeks later planting and prob
ablv do as well as usual. 1t is no
time to get panicky and abandon

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April Is.
(UP).-New sitting, killing dust
storms swept portions of five
states today. Newest in the series
of destructive storms have smoth-
cred the wheat country of Wes-
tern Kansas, Eastern Colorado,
Texas, Oklahoma Panhandles and
Eastern New Mexico since Fer
ruary.
Missouri, Nebraska and Iowa re-
ported a dust cloud so black that
autos had headlights and humans
could not stand the singing blast
of the 5O-mile-an-hour wind.
Trains through Western Kansas
cancelled their schedules.
Airplanes were forced to an al
titude of $1,000 feet.
Inhabitants are marooned IN
sealed homes and schools are
closed.
Winds of gale intensity tore at
the western dust belt last night
and hurled up dense, binding
clouds of CRIME over seven states.
In many respects it was the

had been drifting out of the dry
areas into Nebraska and as far as
Western Iowa.
The gales sent the dust sailing
across Central and Eastern Kan
sas and into Oklahoma and Texas.
At Hutchinson, Kan, at the edge
of the area most seriously affect
ed, the storm appeared like a tor
nado.
"a black funnel whirled in
from the west" the United Press
correspondent said. "The storm
struck with unusual force.
"Within five minutes it was so
black that the motorists had to
use their headlights. 1t was I'M
possible for a human being to
stand lin the singing blast"
Unlike other recent storms the
dust was coming not only from
the burned out areas of Western
Kansas but from almost every
other plouged field in the state.
1t quickly covered an area from
Denver, Colo, to Brownsville,
Texas, more than 1000 miles. 10
the east the dust extended yester-
dav over all of Kansas and most
of Missouri. Oklahoma was blank
eted and Southern Nebraska and
Western Iowa reported lighter

The storm brought sharp drops

the mercury began to tumble IN
10 degree drops.
Because of the horizontal force
of the wind, the dust remained
closer to the ground than in pre-
vious storms, airline observers
said.
