HOT SUMMER
Is PREDICTED
FOR MIDWEST
Mercury Not to Reach 1884
Marks, However; Little

DIES MONIES. April blot
weather beyond the average is COM
ing to Iowa, heart of the corn belt,
during the coming summer. So
prophesies Charles D. Reed, senior
meteorologist of the United States
Weather Bureau here. However, he
adds as at least a modicum of re-
assurance, the summer of 1885 is
not likely to be quite so hot as the
summer of 1884.
That scorching season appears to
have been the climax of an eleven
year cyclic climb in summer tenn
peratures; 1885 should mark the
beginning of the long slide toward
cooler summers.
What holds good for Iowa is to
be expected to be true also for the
Midwest in general, although Mr.
Reed does not undertake to extend
his prophetic jurisdiction outside
the boundaries of his own state
The upper Mississippi Valley and
adjacent territory in the Great
Lakes region form a fairly we'll
marked geographic and meteorologic
unit.
Basis OF Forecasts
Mr.. Reeds method of forecasting
the general nature of the weather
for a season depends on his statis-
tical study of preceding seasons.
Thus, he states, Of the IL warmest
Junes of record, IL have been fol-
lowed in the next spring by Aprils
warmer than usual. June of 1884
was next to the warmest June of
record, so the indications seem to
be plain.
Probabilities also point to dry
April; this forecast is based on the
correlations between both Mays and
Junes appearing on past records as
unusually dry months, followed in
succeeding years by dry Aprils. Fur
thermore, May Of this year will be
warmer and drier than normal If 1t
follows the tendencies of past years,
Mr.. Reed says.
warmer and Drier"
Several lines Of data point to a
summer (June, July and Augusta
averaging warmer and drier than
normal" he continues. THE heat
probably will not be so intense and
persistent as in 1884, but the rain
fall will not likely be much different.
Contrary to the general impress
sion, more than two-thirds of the
counties of Iowa had more rainfall
in the summer of 1894 than in the
summer of 1888. July. 1884, aver
aged 3 per cent more than the nor
NAL rainfall for the state. The
trouble was that the relentless SUM-
shine and heat greatly increased
the water requirements of plants
and animals and quickly evaporated
and diSsipated the rain that fell. If
we have more moderate tempera-
lures in 1885. crop conditions should
be much better. though the rainfall
be no greater than in 1884.
The distribution of temperature
and rainfall through the summer is
highly important. A hot, dry June
and early July is detrimental to
oats, barley. wheat and hay. If the
last half of July is relatively cool
and the first twenty days of August
rainy. a good crop of corn is almost
assured. Bumper corn crop seasons
are warm at both ends and cool in
the middle"

Peace Door Still Open

BY CHlICU FF6SS
GENEVA, July 1.-THE door is
still open to resumption of arbi-
tration in the alo-AbysSinian
quarrel, according to memoran-
dunn published today by the League
of Nations.
In the memorandum, the Italian
representatives at the lately dead
locked and adjourned Scheveningen
conference declared they were will
ling to meet one more, on July 20,
and expressed a desire to give both
parties to the dispute an opportu-
nifty to settle the problem.
The memorandum, which was
submitted by Professor CASTOR Jeze,
representing Abyssinia's interests
at the league, included report of
the Italian negotiatorS dated July 9,
in which they expressed a desire
to continue within the limits Of the
terms of the arbitration agreement.
But if this is not acceptable, y
they said, eve propose that the COM
mission suspend until July 20, thus
giving the two governments an OPP
portunity themselves to settle the
point under dispute"
Contained in the covering letter
were memoranda from the arbitra-
tors stating that "the time has
come for the four mediators of the
commission to select a fifth arbi-
TRAITOR" Thus AbysSinia would still
be empowered to send representa-
tives to the commission if fifth
arbitrator were selected.

RAY HITS BACK

Sheriff Tells Judge to Run

Sheriff Otto Ray reiterated to-

would look after his own court"
The sheriff's declaration came
after Judge Baker directed Joel A.
Baker, investigator, to confer with
County Auditor Charles A. Gros-
sart on the sheriff's per meal al
lowance" for Jail prisoners.
Judge Baker criticised the sheriff
when Oscar Coffman, whom he had
sentenced two weeks ago, appeared
as a witness against Floyd Steen-
berger, a client Of Clyde c. Karrer.
Judge Baker said Coffman should
have been taken to the Reform
atory.
Sheriff Ray retorted sharply, and
exhibited a request from Detectives
Aubrey Jacobs and Thomas Naum-
SEX that Coffman be held here as a
witness in the Steenberger case.
Moreover, the sheriff pointed out,
the policy has been to wait until at
least six prisoners are in Jail be-
fore making the trip to the prison
Otherwise, costs of transferring pris-
onerS would become burdensome
upon the taxpayers, Sheriff Ray
said.

we're taken to Pendleton this morn

but promised every effort" to avert
war.
Sir Samuel also announced Sc
cret move to end the war threat was
under way. The high points of the
British foreign policy as outlined by
the foreign secretary were:
/. Great Britain admits Italy's
need for expansion, and supports
Mussolini in some of his criticisms
against the Ethiopian government.
No Aspirations in Africa
o. Britain will not maintain an
isolated policy in dealing with the
crisis, but will accept any mode or
means offered, whether under trea-
ties or the League of Nations ma
chinery, to avert war.
3. Britain has no aspirations in
Africa, and is not concerned, from
an imperialist standpoint, in the
occurrences on the west coast of
that continent.
4. Britain has not asked, and has
no intention of asking, France to
join her in any blockade against
Italy and all such rumorS are with
out foundation.
Working a Secret Pact
5. The government is working on
a secret move to avert war in At
RIGA.
Sir Samuel referred candidly to
the recent Anglo-French estrange-
ment over the German naval pact,
but said that the British approach
to the Abyssinian problem had en-
abled France to forget any pass
ing difference"
Declaring that relations between
Great Britain and the United States
were excellent, he voiced his thank
fulness that two great peoples diff
fering, perhaps, in small respects,
are never likely to differ on big
issues"
