Father Coughlin's Group
Endorses Lenke

FOLLOWING the recommendation
L of Father Charles E. Coughlin,
the National Union for Social JUS
tice, in convention in Cleveland, in
dorsed the candidacy of Represent
atives Lemke and O'Brien, heads
of the Union party ticket. But, also
on the advice of the priest, the
Lemke platform was not Endorsed.
The $4,000 members of the N. U.
S. J. present enthusiastically and
unanimously elected Father Cough
lin president of the organization.
Lemke and O'Brien both appeared
before the convention, delivered
speeches and were given a rousing
reception. -
The final episode of the meeting
of the Coughlinites was sensational.
The militant priest was delivering
a dramatic address before vast
throng in the Cleveland municipal
stadium when suddenly he faltered,
begged pardon and announced
weakly that he could not finish be-
cause of illness. He was half car
ried to a car that hurried him to
his hotel. There it was said his
indisposition, due to the heat and
overwork, was not serious, and next
day he returned to Detroit.

Wheat Supply Adequate,
Saws Federal Report

THERE is enough wheat in the
= United States for the usual do
mestic requirements of the season
of 1936-37, according to the mid
summer report of the bureau of ag-
ricultural economics, but the supply
of red spring wheat and durum is
short and consequently importation
of those varieties will be continued.
The amount, however, will not be
large, Secretary Wallace stated.
1T is probable the spring wheat
mills in the 1936-'37 season will use
larger percentage of hard red
winter and Pacific northwest wheat
than last year." said the report. "a
larger than usual quantity of soft
red winter wheat is also likely to
be used in bread flour. AS a re-
suit, imports of milling wheat may
be less than in 1885,"
Wheat prices in the United States
may be expected to average about
as high relative to world price lev
els as during the 1885 season,
when the price of No. 2 hard winter
at Kansas City was Is cents over
Liverpool, the bureau said. During
the last three years short crops to-
gether with other influences result
ed in wheat prices in the United
States being maintained unusually
high relative to the world market
price.
Farm prices probably have been
20 cents to 80 cents higher than
might have been expected with
more nearly normal yields in the
United States" the report contin-
ued. "a return of average or great
er than average yields in the United
States would result in an export sur
plus and prices would adjust to-
ward an export basis.
1.-THE acreage seeded for the 1886
crop, 100000 acres, was the Sec
ond largest in history, and seedlings
as large for the 1887 crop would
produce fully enough wheat for to-
tai domestic utilization even if
yields should turn out to be one
fourth below average"

stronghold because many of their
sympathizers were held prisoners
in the fort. The Guadalupe garri-
son was hesitant in returning the
fire for fear that shells would fall
on French territory. Already the
French government was angered
by the dropping of bombs on French
border towns, though it was disput-
ed whether they came from loyalist
or rebel planes.
The Fascists captured the impor-
tant town of Badajoz, near the Por-
tuguese border, at the point of the
bayonet, and were reported to have
executed 1880 government adher-
ents taken there. The rebels also
reported a victory near Zaragoza
after a bloody battle. General

Reds Waging War to Win
America. Saws HobSon

A DMIRAL RICHMOND P. HOB
4 \ SON, now head of the Public
Welfare association of New York,
told the National Conference OF
Clergymen and Laymen at Ashe-
vile that Comintern, the interna-
tional Communist propaganda agen-
cy, is waging scientific warfare"
to gain control of the United States.
He said the board of strategy OF
his association, after exhaustive
studies, has collected evidence that
a competent Communist general
staff has been at work and has sue
ceeded to the extent of casting
widespread doubt on the Constitu-
ton and bringing discredit on the
Supreme court.
John A. Lyon, New York attor-

No New Taxes Promise
for Coming Year

FOLLOWING a conference of
L President Roosevelt, Chairman
Harrison of the senate finance COM
mittee, Chairman Doughton of the
house ways and means committee
and Secretary of the Treasury Nor
genthau, the administrations fiscal
program for the coming year was
thus outlined:
/. Assurance that no request will
be made to the next congress for
the levying of additional taxes or In
crease of present tax rates.
2. Launching of an immediate
study by treasury and congressional
tax consultants of present revenue
laws as basis for recommended
tons to the next congress for elimi-
nation of inequitable taxes, espe-
cially those unfair "to consumers or
to trade"
3. Treasury assurance that with
continued recovery" the revenue
yield is approaching the point where
it will cover government costs and
provide a surplus for reduction of
the public debt.

Commodity Exchange Act
Attacked in Court

AN EQUITY suit attacking the
4 \ constitutionality of the COM
modify exchange act, chiefly on the
ground that it seeks to regulate in
trastate rather than interstate COM
merce in violation to the Constitu-
ton, was filed in the federal dis
trict court in Chicago.
The suit was instituted by Will
liam S. Moore, member of the
Chicago Mercantile Exchange, and
names the exchange, its board OF
directors, and the following as de-
PENDANTS: Henry A. Wallace, secre-
tary of agriculture; Leslie A. Fitz,
supervisor of the commodity ex-
change administration in Chicago;
Daniel c. Roper, secretary of COM
merce; Homer S. Cummings, Unit
ed States attorney general; Michael
L. Igoe, United States district attor-
ney of the northern Illinois district,
and Ernest J. Kruetgen, Chicago
postmaster.
In his petition Mr.. Moore asked
that the commodity exchange act
be declared unconstitutional, void,
and unenforceable.

the nearby Continental Development

This well is located near a large

to Midcontinent fields where SINH
