TODAY,S HOROSCOPE

Today's appears a seemingly able
and energetic nature, but many of
those born this day seem to have rath
er poor success. There may be an
impractical vein, and there is some
danger OF loss through the hands of
others, when it seems as though every
avenue had been guarded. The day
is not actually unfortunate, but the
early path should carefully prepare
for the later years

In submitting its report to the Presi-
dent. the Drought Committee, headed
by Chairman Morris L. Cooke, said:
I'VE endanger our democracy II we
allow the Great Plains or any other
sections of the country to become an
economic desert"
The committee had just concluded
3 personal survey Of nine States with
drought-hit areas embracing 100000
900 acres Of crop land.
THE fundamental purpose Of any
worthwhile program" it said, must
be not to depopulate the region. but
to make it permanently habitable.
The drift away from the Great Plains
has already begun and is likely to
continue unless remedial measures are
taken without delay"
In his rear platform talk the Presi-
dent said the question boiled down
to three problens-keeping people
going who have lost crops and live
stock. helping them until Spring rains
arrive and working out plan Of
cooperation with nature instead OF
going along with what we have been
doing in the past-trying to buck
nature"
The committee recommended estab-
lishment Of a Federal-State board to
"integrate and implement the lines Of
action suggested"
The board should suggest ways In
which current relief activities may in
considerable measure be made the
first steps in the consummation Of
long program" the report said.

approved in letters from both Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Gov. ALT M. Lam
don, Republican presidential nominee.
The report of the committee, which
urged defeat of the amendment, he
said was lacking in understanding Of
social implications of child labor"
Hay urged that the association SIM
ply discharge its committee and re-
frain from further action in the
controversy, which he said was out
side the proper functions of the as
ISOLATION.
Aid Proposal Debated.
A spirited debate developed over
a proposal to ask the Works Progress
Administration to aid needy lawyers
by financing an analysis of the COM
mon law by the American Law In
stitute or other projects. The pro-
posal met disapproval after Ira Jewell
Williams and w. W. Montgomery of
Philadelphia expressed the fear the
resolution might be construed as
voicing approval of w. P. A. activities.
Among the resolutions adopted was
one reaffirming approval of the canon
of ethics decrying political activities
by judges.
Proposed investigation of the Black
Legion, the Radio Corp. of America
strike at Camden, N. j., and other
labor troubles failed of approval. A
suggestion for moving picture CEN
sorship committee met similar fate.
The Assembly accepted the report
of the Committee on Commerce, pass
ing resolutions favoring passage of
the revised food and drug act, with
certain reservations; passage Of q
uniform sales act, regulation Of COM
peting forms of transportation by the
same governmental agency, and ap-
proving the principle of water carrier
regulation set forth in recent bill
before the Senate. The Assembly
refused to approve resolution rec
ommending enactment of the Pet
tengill bill repeating the long and
short haul clause of the interstate
commerce act.
The report on Federal taxation,
presented by Arthur A. Ballantine of
New York, received approval with
minor amendments.

State, Eugenio Cardinal Pacelli. for q
long conference.
His anguish at the church's plight
was said by prelates to have accen-
tuated the frail health Of the pontin
who Is 10.
Close observers noted the strain
under which he has been laboring has
mitigated the beneficial results arising
from his Summer vacations at Castel
Gandolfo.
He has had difficulty in arising
from the throne, q condition caused
by the sensation Of heayiness Of his
limbs.
Only Ailment End0carditis.
High prelates said the Pope's only
ailment was endocarditis, an inflam-
nation of the endothelial lining men,
brare Of the heart.
It was not until 1894 that his holi-
ness, on the advice of his physicians,
sought rest at CaStel Gandolfo, Sum-
mer home 10 miles from Rome In the
Alban Hills. It had not been used by
Popes since 1870, when they became
prisoners of the Vatican"
Toward the end of each Summer
before his trips to the villa Pope Plus
was visibly tired from his work, but
after the Summer migrations in July
and August it was noted he returned to
the Vatican refreshed.
The pontiff, however, does not care
for the bother of seeing q physician,
although he has 20 physicians and sur
geons on the Vatican staff. One is con-
stantly on duty.
In the later years Of his life he has
given more attention to his teeth, with
frequent visits from his dentist.

:SCHACHT HOPEFUL
| FOR FRENCH PACT
Trade Accord Plea Made to

in Paris Trip.
Nv the Associs ted Press.

sAy the Associsted Press.
PARIS, August 28.-Dr. Hjalmar
.6chacht, Germany's economic dicta-
tor" conferred with Premier Leon
Blum and headed homeward today at
the close of a combined political-finan-
cial mission in which. informed sources
said, he pressed for a Franco-German
trade accord as the starting point OF a
general rapprochement
. The Schacht- Blum conference lasted
On hour and, while the principals would
not disclose its details, there were
rumors in financial circles that the
Bank Of International Settlements
might be made the agent for vast
project of European economic and
monetary reform.
DR.. Schacht, who is Reichs minister
of economics and president of the
Reichsbank in NaZi Germany, declared
himself eminently satisfied with re
suits" before boarding a plane for
Berlin.
Clarifies Positions.
The plane took off from lie Bourget
Airdrome this afternoon.
An immediate result of the CONVEX
sationS, diplomatic sources believed,
was Qualification of the German and
French stands preparatory to confer
ences this Autumn
Emile Labeyrie, governor of the
Bank of France, is going to London
in September to meet Montagu Nor
man, governor of the Bank of Eng
land. DR.. Schacht Is expected to
return to Paris before the next meet
ing of the world bank at Basel and
the October conference of Locarno
powers.
Before he left, DR.. Schacht said:
"How could one help being satisfied
when one just has talked with man
like Blum? am very happy with
results of my trip"
Despite assertions Of French off,
Gals they would follow up" his rap
prochement appeals, however, many
Informed sources believed there wert
insurmountable obstacles in the way
OF their fulfllment.
Accord Held Unlikely.
Anti-Nazi sentiment of the present
French government and general dis
trust of Chancellor Adolf Hitler, II
was stated. made it unlikely that
France would go very far toward
extending credits and affording mar
kets to Germany.
This belief was strengthened, in
formed sources said. by the increased
military training period announced
by Germany to swell the size of its
army.
Schacht, who ended his visit here
yesterday. had been represented as
urging France to aid German eco
nomic reha bilitation as the wisest STEP
to assure peace in Europe. A pros
porous Germany, reliable informants
quoted him, would be much less of q
menace than a Germany harassed by
unemployment and economic ills.
A demand that France establish
military training for its youth under
CONSUMPTION age and create billion
franc fund to finance the project was
presented to the Military Affairs Com
mittee by Communist Deputy Marcel
Clifton.
The political bureau of the FrencN
Communist party adopted resolu-
ton warning France it must take
