The dream came true. Construc-
ton was started in 1908, and in
1913. for the first time. water roar
ed through the great siphons. The
project had cost $4,000 less than
Mulholland had estimated.
Mulholland never fully recover

worst flood catastrophe-the COL
lapse Of the St. Francis dam. which
he had constructed. on March l3.
1928. More than 300 persons per-

engineer for the bureau of light
and power, 80 that I won't embar-
rasS my superiors." They refused
TO accept his resignation and gave
him a vote of confidence.
Accepted Blame
If any human hand was reSpon-
sible for this tragedy, that hand is
mine he declared courageously at
a coroner's inquest in the disaster
deaths.
His words were his own recogni-
ton of the almost lone hand he had
played in the development of the
great city water system.
The cause of the break never was
definitely established but a concen-
sus OF opinion agreed with Mulhol-
land that the rock foundation on
which it was built was faulty.
Later he resigned, after so years

DISTURBANCE
BY FREDERICK OECHSNER

BERLIN, July % U.R) Renewed
anti-Jewish activity conceded today
with the Nazi drive against Catholic
critics of the Hitler regime.
Rowdies stoned and smashed the
windows of a Jewish electrical shop
in the west end of Berlin, signifying
that the disturbances of the past
week are not over.
Government action meanwhile
was awaited against the parish

ernments edict against anti-Nazi
reference from the pulpit yesterday
Two priests, the Rev Martin
Usch and the Rev. Rudolf WilmSen

on charges of violating the foreign
exchange regulations. Various
priests and nuns already have beer

AAA' 'S LEGAL
STATUS GETS
SENATE AID

WASHINGTON. July %. (U.P) -
The senate today sought to bolster
the legal status of AAA by adopt
ing an amendment specifically val
idating benefit payments made to
farmers who signed government
crop control contracts.
The amendment was offered by
the administration in an effort to
protect legality of the payments
made to farmers regardless of Ill
innate outcome of the court battle
over AAA's constitutionality.
The senate earlier adopted a pro-
pcsal by Sen. Robert M LaFollette
tProgD, Wisconsin, authorizing the
] President to impose quota restric-
tlons on imports of farm products
II necessary to maintain price gains
made under AAA.
A plan by Sen. Burton K. Wheel
er DENY, Montana, TO permit use
Of s500000,OOO for government pur-
! chase OF sub-marginal farm land
also was approved.
Without a record vote, the SEN
ate adopted an amendment by Sen.
Harry F.. Byrd DEM, Virginia,
striking out provision that would
have permitted the government to
fix prices on commodities purchased
by handlers. Earlier, it had elimi-
mated a similar section relating to
prices on sales by handlers.
1t also adopted an amendment
by Byrd requiring the secretary of
agriculture to obtain the consent of
two-thirds of producers involved
before issuing any marketing agree
ment order.

Mclaughlin now is compiling pro-
iects to employ needy, transferring
them from relief rolls to payrolls.
Supporting Mclaughlin are A.
d. Wilder, state public works ad-
ministration engineer. and Jerome
F. Sears, Los Angeles, head of the
state division of the national emer-
gency council.
Wilder is receiving applications
from California and its political
subdivisions for construction pro-
jects costing $4,000 or more. The
government will make an outright
grant of As per cent of a develop
ment's cost.
Sears is cooperating with Frank
c. Walker, head of the federal di-
vision of applications and infor-
nation, to expedite all works-re-
lief applications to Washington
where they will be finally approx

Relief officials here pointed to

For all I know. Greasy may be

He has Gefed Yale tradition several

thunder1d, "and don't want to see

At this juncture, the head coach Of

The Fighting Irish" of Notre

Jim Martin, right guard, is the one
proud son of Erin virtually sure to be
in the starting lineup The second, a
possibility because early season injuries
NAV keep him out is Mike Layden,
right halfback and brother Of the
Notre Dame coach Elmer Layden
The rest of the Fighting Irish"
starting lineup reads like a League Of
Nations poll with a half dozen na-
tionallties represented
Same as Faced Pitt.
HE general opinion was that Coacn
Layden would use the same lineup
that opened the winning game against
Pittsburgh: Wayne Millner, left end;
Dick Pfefferle, left tackle; John Lali-
ter, left guard; Fred Solari, center;
Martin. right guard; Frank Kopczak,
right tackle; Marty Peters, right end;
Wally Fromhart, quarterback; Bill
Shakespeare. left half; Wojcihovski,
right half, and Fred Carideo. fullback.
Layden plans to use straight foot
ball against the Buckeye power house.

haven't been given more than half

Renner q Great Passer.

EVERY great Michigan team Of

sensational passer. Coach Harry

passer than either Bennie Friedman

start this Fall.

play Michigan at Ann Arbor.
Forward-pass defense and drills on

long for their important duel at Min
neapolis. Purdue worked on new plays
and Coach Noble Kizer planned the

speed up the offense. Minnesota
drilled on passes. but the receiving was
so poor. generally. that Coach Bernie
Bierman sent his players jogging
around the field as a penalty for mis-
plays.
