sons spent the night in parks,
sleeping on the grass.
Although this is against the
law, park and metropolitan police
made no effort to stop them, but
instead patrolled the park areas,
found parking places for thou
sands of cars and were generally
helpful.
Every available bit Of parking
space around Haines Point was
occupied, and thousands OF per-
sons sat in their machines or on
the grass, hoping for a cool breeze
from off the river.
In Anacostia Park machines
were parked on the grass, so great
was the crowd there, and again
police closed their eyes to this
violation, to enable the sWeltering
thousands to obtain some relief.
Swimming Pools Packed
Every swimming pool in the
city was packed with adults and
children, while many youngsters
took off shoes and stockings and
waded in fountains in the parks
with police again turning away
from this law violation.
Highways were crowded as thou
sands of persons left the city for
nearby Maryland and Virginia
haochnS Snendin0 the night in the
open and returning to the city
this morning.
In Maryland Governor Harry
Nice issued instructions to all de
partment heads to release State
employees according to their dis
cretion. The maximum tempera
ture in Baltimore was 103 degrees
one less than the highest recorded
in the District.

Warships Return

LONDON, July 10 G.N.S0-An'
nouncement of Britain's peace
gesture toward Italy-withdrawal
of most of the warships which
rushed to the Mediterranton when
the Anglo-Italian crisis arose-WaS
followed today by authoritative re-
ports the government has no
thought Of abandoning Malta as
a naval base.
Instead, it was indicated, Malta
will be strengthened both as
naval and aerial base, with a con.
centration of light seacratt ana
more seaplaneS.
When the crisis between Italy
and Britain was at its height dur
ing the Italo-Ethiopian war, large
numbers of British warSnipS which
had concentrated at Malta were
suddenly withdrawn to other parts
of the Mediterranean in fear OF a
sudden air attack by Fascist planes
from nearby Italian bases. This
gave rise to reports Malta might
be abandoned as a naval base.
1t was also pointed out the new
British aircraft carrier provided in
the supplementary estimates an
nounced yesterday brings the num-
Der of these craft scheduled for the
1896 construction program to two.
An important government Off
cial explained Britain learned the
increasing value of aircraft car
rierS during the Mediterranean
crisis. AS mobile aerial bases, he
said, they have tactical advantages
over immobile land bases, which
offer easy targets for hostile air
craft.

President Is Keeping
Close Watch Upon
Heat Sufferers /
International News Service

Announcing that a total of
$4,000 WPA jobs were to be made
available to drought sufferers
$4,000 in the five Northwestern
States, and 10000 in the South
and Southwest-PreSident Roose-
Welt disclosed today that 16,500
persons already actually were at
work.
Nine additional counties in
Minnesota are to be declared a
part of the drought area, the Presi-
dent said, making a total of 277
counties in the badly-Stricken
Northwest that will receive imme-
date aid.
Reports at Hand
A number of last-minute re-
ports from various Government
agencies were on the Presidents
desk and he referred to them
frequently as he outlined the
extent of the Governments eff
forts to aid the drought Suf-
ferers.
The children's bureau, he told
his press conference, is sending
agents into burned-out areas to
ascertain what special require
ments mothers and children may
have in the way of relief.
The water supply is being
watched closely everywhere and
the Government is prepared to
move families from localities
where it dries up.
Watches for Disease
The Public Health Service is
keeping a close check on pos
sible contamination Of water and
spread of disease.

May Pass Record High
With the mercury continuing to
climb and no relief in sight, the
Weather Bureau announced that
the temperature will reach yester-
days high Of 104, and may exceed
the all-time high Of LOG, last
reached in July, 1890.
The heat was so intense in down
town streets that Major Ernest
w. Brown, superintendent of po-
lice, assigned extra men in the
traffic division to relieve crossing
policemen so they might get relief
from the broiling sun.
The first heat proStration of the
day was that of Elmer Ridgeway,
26, a taxicab driver, of 422 Third
st. N. w. He drove to Emergency
Hospital and collapsed, being
treated there.
After dropping to a low of rs
degrees at S o'clock this morn
ing, the temperature started to
rise, and by 10 o'clock had
reached SO degrees, which was
five more than at the same time
yesterday morning.
Hopes that a cooling breeze
might cut the heat were diSSi-
pated as the breeze continued to
blow from the West, coming off
the extreme heat regions in the
drought area.
Three Dead
The SO degree temperature at
8 o'clock was six degrees higher
than at the same time yesterday
when II degrees was recorded at
the Observatory.
The toll of the heat wave in
Washington and the vicinity so
far is three dead, more than a
score admitted to hospitals for
proStration and dozens given first
aid in drug stores, ambulances
and rescue squads as they were
overcome and then taken to their
homes.
AS the heat mounted yesterday
employees of the District Building
and Government departments not
house in air-cooled buildings
were permitted to leave early,
and it was expected this action
would be followed today as the
mercury continued to climb.
With the mercury still standing
at "a degrees at midnight and the
humidity high, the Capital expert

where a near 100 temperature

In the meanwhile. Iowa sat
back in disappointment. Long
awaited rains which it was hoped
would save the great corn crops
arrived, but were too light to do
much good, and the mercury
quickly shot back up to LOG
high at Washington, Iowa.
The Federal Govern me n t
pushed ahead its drought-relief
program, with President Roose-
welt scheduled to confer with his
aids in Washington today, and
hear reports on what has been
done to aid the estimated 204,-

All hope of harvesting even a
partial grain crop went glinmer-
ing in South Dakota as temper
atureS mounted over the 100 de-
gree mark for the eighth consecu-

estimated between forty and fifty
thousand farm families will be de-
pendent next winter.
Dairymen Suffer
Declaring the continued heat
has caused a marked decrease in
milk production, dairy farmers of
Northern Illinois and Southern
Wisconsin are demanding higher
prices for their milk. w. H.
Schendorf, of Dundee, Ill, de-
clared milk production is off 20
to 80 per cent.
The Illinois corn crop was esti-
mated to have suffered rs per cent
damage already, and agricultural
experts declared only heavy rains
coming soon can prevent failure
of the late corn and oats crops.
A $12,200,000 appropriation for
emergency water control and
relief projects in the Red River
