Nature Stages Drdma Of Disaster
By HERBERT YAHRAEs

Associated Press Staff Writer)
 Nature and man-made machines combined to make 1885 year of disasters and violent deaths.
 John Smith, wherever in America he lived felt tlIC fury of the ele- nients-dust pllzzards, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and pounding seas.
 He saw air crashes claim Will Rog- CTS, Wiley Post, Senator Bronson Cutting-and perhaps Sir Charles Kingsford Smith-car crashes claim Queen Astrid of Belgium, Mrs. liar old L. Ickes. Prince Alexis Mdivani.
 Through late winter and spring, dry winds swept topsoil from mil lions of midwestern acres, carrying 1t itfsometimes thousands of miles.
 Started Erosion Fight
 As weeks went by without rain, the dirt-laden winds blackened the atmosphere, poured dust into houses, pafalyzed traffic, aggravated di- sease, resulted in untold crop dam age.
 But midwestern Farmer Joh II Smith, digging away the dirt that had drifted over his fences, almost to the caves of his barn, was undis- mayed. He stayed where he was, planned to combat erosion, left a great American desert" develop.
 Later the earth again got John Smiths attention, this time by quak- ing. From Wisconsin and Illinois to the Atlantic, and from Canada to Maryland, the east was shaken-but ever so slightly-early November 1. fit the same time, Helena. Montana, was passing through much more severe shock. Another in series of hundreds that began October 12. killed seven, and caused damage es- timated at more than $3000,0O0
 Dixie Grounded
 Thrilling and spectacular was the wrecking of the steamship Dixie off the Florida coast, September 3. For two days hurricane dashed waters prevented rescue work. The last of the 231 passengers was transferred September 5. No lives were lost.
 The same hurricane devastated part of the Florida Keys, killed more than 400
 Other hurricanes roared across southern and eastern seas from Au- gust to October. Total storm deaths more than 1900; property damage millions.
 Mohawk Wrecked
 Other ship rescues thrilled John Smith. September 30, the cruising Rotterdam with 450 passengers went aground east of Kingston, Jamaica. Everybody rescued. On January 6, the steamship Havana crashed into a reef off the Bahamas. Everybody rescued; one died in lifeboat.
 Eighteen days later came the years major disaster in American waters. At night, in icy weather off the New Jersey coast, the liner Mo- hawk, and the freighter Talisman collided. The Mohawk sank as ships and coast guard boats rushed to the

the author of "Personalities'')
Center Dale Rennebom appeared
to be the most ticlled man on the
Minnesota team when Dwight Reed
made those catches of Roscoe's per-
fectly aimed passes last Saturday
in the North Dakota Aggie game.
After Dwight caught that first
pass and sprinted across the goal
line with it, Dale grabbed hold of
him and Rugged him like a father
would a long-lost son. When
Dwight caught the second pass,
Rennie Rugged him again with
even more enthusiasm than he had
the first time.
The most fascinating thing
about the Roscoe-Reed passing
team is the perfect coordination
on both ends Of the combine. Both
lads take their time and are per-
fectly relaxed in action. There is
the effect of some invisible mental
cooperation and coordination. The
ball goes direct from passer to
receiver with the unerring straight
ness Of q homing pigeon, s'help
me.
From where I sat on the press
sideline benches, could see Bernie
Bierman, in a grey business suit,
scOwling out at the play on the
field. He was hatless, and the
slanting rays of the late afternoon
sun showed up his facial express
sions perfectly. The Minnesota
players and reserves under wraps
on the bench reflected the glum
dissatisfaction of their coach.
When Dwight Reed trotted to the
showers a few minutes before the
game was over, he received the
biggest applause of the day from
the fans. Someone remarked be-
hind me: THAT colored kids going
to be a star before mid-season."
Just before the Aggies went over
for their only touchdown of the
game, the North Dakota bench was
a study in eager suspense and an
ticipation. The small group of No
dak reserves must have done some
well-directed praying, for when
their team mates put the pigskin
over for a score, they were the
most happy, thankful-looking
bunch Of youngsters I've ever seen.
They hoped up and down and
smacked each other on the back
with so much enthusiasm that even
the most down-hearted Minnesota
fan couldn't have begrudged them
the score.
The sideline press benches are
right down on the field so they
afford a su-well opportunity to
witness the real business that goes
on in the playing of a football
game. The varying expressions of
the players, tenseness, WEAKNESS,
relief, pain, are all brought into
close focus. When one North Da-
kota lad was injured and helped
of the field by his team mates, his
face was a study in suppressed
pain. He looked like a small boy
who had injured his knee badly
and was fighting to hold back the
tears.

DIRECT RELIEF
STILL AIDING
38 STATES
international News Service


The day that direct Federal re-
lief was scheduled to end under
the 4,0O0-million-dollar Work Re
lief program found $34,43o, 900 in
FERA funds allotted to 38 States,
the District of Columbia, Alaska,
and the Virgin Islands to carry on
relief.
Allotments are due for four
more States.
Twenty Of the States received
allotmentS for only the first half
of the month, with the announce
ment from Administrator Harry
l.. Hopkins that at least that many
will be taken off the relief rolls by
mid-November. Six States were
cut off Federal relief allotments in
the last two months.
Mr.. Hopkins, head of FERA
since early 1888, and WPA Ad-
ministrator under the Work Re
lief program, emphatically de-
clared today that direct relief
would be ended by November Is
in more than half the States, and
in all by the end of the month.
1t was Mr.. Hopkins who origi-
nally scheduled the end of direct
relief by November l, by which
time the program was to have
provided employment for the
3,50o,0O0 employable heads OF
families and family supporters
from the relief rolls.

SOFT COAL TAX
IS EFFECTIVE
TODAY
International News Service

International News Service
The Is per cent tax designed to
compel obedience to the Guffey
coal control law became effective
today as a fight to gain an early
decision of the United States Su-
preme Court on its constitution
atty was carried on.
All bituminouS coal operators
who sign and comply with the
Little NRA" set up under the law
will gain a 80 per cent rebate of
the tonnage tax.
Carter Gives Bond
AS the tax became effective
counsel for James w. Carter,
minority stockholder of the Car
ter Coal Company, was fighting
in the District Supreme Court for
an injunction to prevent collection
Of the tax or compliance.
Mr.. Carter put up a temporary
bond to escape enforced collec-
ton of the tax, which the Gov
ernment will begin to take into
its Golfers in two months.
Chief Justice Hughes having re-
ferred Mr.. Carter's application for
stay Of the bond order and a re-
Straining order to the full court,
action by that tribunal appeared
unlikely before November IL.
But District Supreme Court JUS
tice Jessie Adkins continued to
hear the Carter case on its merits,
and there was a possibility of
decision before the High Court
acts.
All Anxious for Test
Both counsel for the coal COM
pany and Government attorneys
appear deSirous of an carly Su-
preme Court test. Until the high
tribunal decides the fate of the
law, confusion may obtain.
Officials of the National Btu
minous Coal Commission esti-
mated that more than 1000 op-
orators had formally accepted the
code, resigned to bring order in
the bituminous coal industry,
stabilize prices, wages and make
certain the right of collective bar
