Promise of Rains and Cooler
Weather for Drouth Areas

Weather for Drouth Areas
WITH a recession of the ex-
w tremely high temperatures
promised and the prospect of rains,
some measure of relief was in sight
for the sun-parched drouth areas of
the Great Plains. Rains which fell
in portions of the Northwest revived
scattered areas. But for day after
day record-breaking heat wave
had brought temperatures ranging
from 80 to ia from the Rocky
Mountains to the Appalachians.
Twenty-three states, eight OF
them in the South, were listed as
suffering in some degree from the
drouth. Ten of them-North and
South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming,
Minnesota, Missouri, Tennessee,
Oklahoma, Virginia and South
Carolina-were already in criti-
cal stage. Five others-Kentucky
Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina
and West Virginia-were borderline
cases. Eight others where the full
severity of the drouth had not yet
been felt were: Nebraska, Wiscon-
sin, Iowa, Michigan, Illinois, Kan
sas, Indiana and Ohio.
The sweltering heat and drouth
spread into Canada. The prairie
provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche-
wan and Alberta-Canada's bread
basketball begun to suffer like
their neighbors in the United
States. Except for scattered 10
cal showers, there had been no
rain from Ontario westward to the
Canadian Rockies since June 16.
With the full extent of the dam
age in the "dust bowl area of the
Northwest not yet known, the fed
eral government made plans to
deal with a long-range disaster.
President Roosevelt, taking person
al command of the relief program
in Washington, announced that he
would make a personal tour OF the
drouth-stricken areas within the
next few weeks.
The President announced that
the federal government had pre-
pared comprehensive plan where
by 10000 out of 100000 farm fami-
lies impoverished by the drcuth in
the Northwest would be given inn
mediate cash assistance. He de-
clared that he will make his trip
after the relief program has lad an
opportunity to get under way.

farm population, government aid in
marketing surplus crops, centraliz-
ing of federal power and reduction
of federal expenditures with Gov.
Landon. Mr.. Lowden declared:
1--WE are in accord on the impor-
tant agricultural issues. I shall
support him and campaign for his
election"
Payment of cash federal boun-
ties to- soil conserving farmers
through a plan contemplating state
administration was one of the farm
principles advocated by Mr.. Low
den which received the verbal sup
port of Gov. Landon following the
conference.
With the Republican presidential
nominee at work on his acceptance
speech, conferences with other
leaders were scheduled. Important
among these was the visit of
George N. Peek, former AAA ad-
ministrator who resigned his post
following a break with Secretary
of Agriculture Wallace and is now
a New Deal critic. Also on the
program was the visit of Col.
Frank Knox, Governor Landon's
running mate.
At Governor Landon's office a
letter was made public from. Will
liam Cabell Bruce, former Demo-
cratic senator from Maryland, say
ing that he was bitterly disap-
pointed in President Roosevelt
and deeply gratifed" at Governor
Landon's nomination.
In the meantime members of the
Kansas legislature had departed
for their homes after submitting
two constitutional amendments to
the states electorate. One of
these would authorize state aid for
the needy and the other would APP
prove state participation in TIC fed
eral social security plan. Both
. amendments were recommended
by Governor Lalldon.

agreement will re-establish the old

racial unity and the centuries long
common history" of the two peo-
pies. It is understood that both
Hitler and Schuschnigg will meet
in the near future, probably at Hit

In diplomatic circles the signing
of the new pact was regarded as
another shrewd coup by Chancel-
lor Hitler and Premier Mussolini.
The German and Italian dictators
have thrust a dictatorially gov
erned Fascist and Nazi wedge
through central Europe from the
North Sea to the Mediterranean.
In Paris, French officials were
quoted as seeing in the new agree
ment an initial step toward Ger
man annexation of the Austrian
republic without resorting to war.
They declared their belief that Hit
ler's actual entry into Vienna is
now only question of time.

Notice how simple it is to put
on, merely slipped over the head
and tied at each side. Mothers
find it great help because it
can be used as an apron over
frock, which must be kept clean,

panties to match are an asset
they have the comfortable
French yoke top and stay snug
but never bind. This attractive
design made in cotton, percale,
bingham, calico, or lawn would
be effective with contrasting bind

Threat of Farm Strike
Worries French Nation

MYTH the threat of farm
w strike hanging ominously over
France, riots in French cities and
street clashes between the leftists
supporting the popular front social
ist regime of Premier Leon Blum
and rightists who oppose it added
to the unrest. The government
made anxious efforts to dissuade
farm workers from going on a
strike for higher pay and better
wages.
On five farms near Paris strik-
ing farm hands had actually oc-
cupied the land. While this was a
localized situation, it was fraught
with dangerous possibilities be-
cause the area affected not only
provides most of the French capt.
tails fresh vegetable supply but is
an important wheat growing re-
gion as well.
Due to heavy rains and hot
weather the wheat has ripened at
an abnormally rapid rate. Should
a widespread strike of farm hands
occur that delayed the wheat cut
ting only a few days, experts were
OF the opinion that the entire crop
of the region would be lost.

New Austro- German Pact
Makes Diplomatic History

A NEW era in European diplo-
n macy was heralded with the
signing of treaty between Ger
many and Austria re-establishing
peace and normal relations be-
tween the two nations.
Since Italy has been acting in
the role of big brother to Austria
in the past two years it was re-
garded as a virtual certainty that
Premier Mussolini had sanctioned
the new pact. Observers pointed
out that with Germany, Austria
and Italy in accord and with Po-
land friendly to Hitler's aims, Eu-
rope now has a prospective alli-
ance more powerful than the triple
alliance of Germany, Italy and Au-
stria-Hungary preceding the World
war.
By the terms of the new Austro-
German pact, the sovereignty of
Austria is guaranteed, a friendly
attitude by Austria toward Ger
many is promised, amnesty to Nazi
agitators in Austria is given axd
freedom of Austrian Nazi now in
termed in Germany is permitted.
In sealing the Austro-G German
agreement Chancellor Kurt Schus-
chnigg of Austria wired a mes
sage of congratulations to Chancel-
Tor Hitler expressing his conviction
that the agreement would be to
the advantage Of the whole Ger
man people" In replying Hitler

NOTED the unionization drive in the
steel industry.
Meeting in Washington, the exec
utive council of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor considered the
matter of suspending eight national
and international unions on the
ground that these eight unions
have begun the formation of a ri
val, or dual labor federation.
John L. Lewis announced that he
would not respond to a summons
of the executive council to answer
charges that he had violated the
federation's policy by trying to or
ganize 100000 steel workers into
one big industrial union instead of
into several unions divided by
crafts.
