TORRID SPELL
TAKING HEAVY
TOLL Of LIVES
BY United Press


The nations death toll mounted
to SO today as a withering sun beat
down upon a heat zone covering
four-fifths the area of the United
States.
In the tier of states stretching
from the gulf to the Canadian bor-
der, 48 were dead. New York
counted its dead at five.
In addition, scores of drownings
were reported in sweltering areas
where citizens sought relief from
the vast wave of super-heated air,
comparable only to last years dis
astrous summer. Intensity of the
heat was moderated only mildly by
the recent heavy rains, observers
said.
Clear skies and stalled winds
have worked temperatures up above
the 100 degree mark in numerous
territories. 1t was 113 degrees yes
terday in Phillipsburg, Kansas.
Many other towns reported the
mercury above 80 degrees. In Chi
cago the temperature scared to 81
degrees, despite a gentle lake
breeze.
Severity of the heat and its dur
alton was measured by the fatah-
ties: Texas led with II dead; Okla
homa nine; Kansas seven; Missouri
five; New York five; Nebraska
five; Minnesota four; Arkansas
three; Iowa, Illinois and Indiana
one each.
Across the corn belt of Iowa, Ne
braSka and Illinois the hot sun and
warm nights were welcomed by
farmers, who feared their crops
might be damaged by excessive
rains which earlier flooded fields in
unseaSonal doWnpourS.
In Oklahoma, agronomists sale
crops there could stand another
week of intense heat without seri.
Gus damage. while Kansas farmers
worked in their fields overtime tt
make up for the wet spells. 4
high fatality of work horses wa
reported in the latter area yester
day as result.
Because of the heavy pastur
growth throughout the prairi
states, agriculturists said loss o
livestock would not be serious.

ARMY Of MEN
BAT Tiles WITH
FOREST BLAZE

SANTA BARBARA. July IL. U.P)
Borne by a shifting wind, fire
swept forward on a new front in
the Guyana district of the Santa
Barbara national forest today.
More than 500 men, most Of
whom had worked all night, were
thrown in the. new path of the
blaze to continue their desperate
tranching The fire, roaring
through heavy brush and grass
land, covered more than $500 acres,
and was still spreading
All Thursday night the croWning
flames swept southwest before 30
mile wind. Shallow trenches scored
in the rocky earth by fire crews
checked the blaze as far as they
want, but they were constantly out
! flanked by the swift spread of the
, blaze.
After sunrise the breeze fell off
70 10 miles per hour, its current
speed, but sudden reversal in it's
direction sent flames bounding to
the northwest.
Leaving but a few to complete
trenches and battle hot-spotS on
the southern front, the bulk of the
smoke-grimed army was rushed to
the new front to begin work all ov-
er again.
The fire is blazing in rough coun-
try 25 miles west of Maricopa and
six miles off the Guyana highway
linking Maricopa and Santa Maria.
Fight Under Handicaps
Early today brush and tall grass
were its only fuel. but unless
checked this morning flames will
surge into tall stands of timber with
inevitable heavy loss, it was re-
ported at forest headquarters here.
There is almost no water on the
rugged slopes, and crawling pack
trains must bear food and drink to
the fire-fighters.
Forest officers said that no houses
were located near the fires path,
and that there was no immediate
danger to life or private property.
Men and equipment were rushed
from points as far south as Los An
geleS county last night. Whether
the fire army will be reinforced
depends on the speed with which
the fire spreads this morning, it
was said.
Crews early today numbered 538
men, forestry officers said. The
battle against the flames was ham
pered by the fact that it was i'm
possible to use portable hose units
in the rough hills.
Fire broke out at dusk yesterday
in Branch Canyon. Rangers be-
heved that they would soon have it
under control, but a brisk wind
sprang up at midnight to scatter
flames over wide front.

FLOOR FIGHTS
THREATENED
At ia NEE 7

NEW YORK, July u. UP -
Threat of a general strike of
longshoremen in leading Gulf of
Mexico ports occupied the atten-
ton of delegates today as the quad
rennial meeting of the Interna-
tional Longshoremen's association
reconvened to act on a series of
resolutions.
Joseph P. Ryan, who was re-
elected for his third year term as
president of the I. L. A., called
special conference to discuss
threatened walkout which would
involve New Orleans, Mobile, Pen
sacola and Gulfport.
According to advices from Gulf
port, the general strike probably
will be called Sunday in sympathy
with the locked out" lila local
there. The situation arose from ac-
ton of the Golfport Maritime as
sociation in signing a two-year
contract with the newly formed
Golf Port Benevolent association to
load and unload ships. The lila To-
cal, which lost the port contract,
charges the benevolent group with
being company union"
Floor fights threatened the In
ternationals session today as Har-
ry Bridges, militant west coast
leader, who failed to block Ryans
reelection at yesterdays meeting,
offered resolution condemning
Ryan's attitude during the San
Francisco general strike. offered
yesterday, it was met with boos and
shouts of "in the waste basket"
But Ryan permitted it to be filed.
Other resolutions submitted by
the west coast leader called for a
national agreement with ship lines
for a 30-hour week, control of hir-
ing halls by the union, ratification
of all agreements with employers
by referendum among the men,
elections every two years, and ces-
sation of work on a certain date in
protest against the Imprisonment
of Mooney and Billings.
The elections yesterday proved
an overwhelming victory for the
so-called conservative element. Ry-
an was backed solidly by delegates
from the Atlantic, Gulf and Cana
dian ports. Bridges was not even
nominated and he confined him
self to rallying his group, consist
ing of three other Pacific Coast
delepateS to vote against RYAN
They were the only dissenters.
