DUST
STORM BREAKS
Winter Wheat Region Is
Again Threatened With
Becoming Desert

KANSAS CITY, Mar. 81. CUP
Second major dust storm blast
ed across the winter wheat region
last night in a renewal Of condi-
tons which threaten to make the
"dust bowl" a desert.
Greening fields of tiny wheat
stalks caught adouble onslaught
of misunderstanding winds and
raking streams of sand and debris.
Only abundant rainfall within
two weeks can save heavy losses
to farmers throughout western
Kansas and the Oklahoma and
Texas Panhandle. Although the
intensity of the dust storms is
comparable with those which
brought ruin to the effected area
two years, the dust bowl" intelf
is smaller. -.
The new storm again brought
snow to Garden City, Kans., and
assured at least a partial crop.
Eastern Colorado also was escap-
ing the dust damage. -.
There was no easing Of suffer-
ing for those in powder dry dust
regions where humans were fore
ed to remain indoors and cattle
had to be fed lest they eat the
dust covered vegetation. and die.
Again, farmers in regions ada
cent to the dry bowl were talking
of the possibility Of dust elerctri-
city killing their crops which this
year gave promise of bumper
yields.
The storm went keening north
eastward out of Oklahoma and
Texas before daybreak. Wichi-
ia, Kan, residents were awaken
ed by the sound of the silt splash
ing their windows.
Thick dust piled up in the at
mosphere over a thousand Kan,
sas towns. The storm reached
Kansas City at midmorning and
rapidly dimmed out visibility to
a quarter of a mile. The storm
spread northward as far as Omaha
and half across missouri 10 Ihe
east.
Erratic equinoctial shifts in the
wind then began to scatter the
2,000-mile continuous stream OF
dust. One great portion of the
mile-high storm moved down upon
eastern Oklahoma. At Tulsa,
automobiles in the street could
not be seen from the United
Press bureau q stories above
the street.
The wind shift cleared the air
over Amarillo, Tex, which here
tofore this season has been the
heart of the dust bowl. Then the
dust folded back over many OF
the cleared areas.

Moving Forward

WASHINGTON, Mar. 27. CUP
The house veterans committee
opened an investigation of anoth-
er disaster-the death of hun
dreds of war veterans trapped IN
their relief camps on the Florida
Keys during the devastating hur-
ricane last September. Represen-
tative j. Hardin Peterson d.,
Fla.) urged the committee to de-
termine responsibility for failure
to rescue the veterans. The COM
mittee is considering a bill to pro-
vide compensation for widows and
orphans of the victims.
The house approved the FILA
extension bill without a record
vote after several hours debate.
1t included an amendment permit
ting loans on "real property" i'm
provements. which it was said
would be of particular aid to
flood victims needing money to
rebuild their homes. 1t also would
permit loans up to $4,000 for
improvements on com mere
property, churches, hospitals and
schools. A similar bill already has
passed the senate.
Senator John Overton o.,
La.) urged immediate considera-
ton of his flood control bill, but
the senate left it pending after
suggestion in debate that it be
combined with the omnibus mea-
sure prepared by army engineers
and pending in committee. The
army proposals include construc-
ton of reservoirs and dams in
the Connecticut river basin and
eastern Pennsylvania and south
ern New York. - '..-''-
