added that soviet Russia still stood
irrevocably for peace. Said he:
Fascist countries make one chal-
lenge after another to peace-loving
democratic states and we hope BE-
fore long those states will stand up
to them.
'The soviet union has no reason
to change its position, which was

peace for itself and for all other
countries.
''It wants no words-there has
been too much talk-but action from

''The soviet union begs no one to
be its partner. 1t does not ask for
unions, alliances or combinations.
The day will come when the Red
army and navy will be forced to de-
fend the Fatherland. Then they will
show unprecedented courage and

gist, give the encouraging promise
that greater than normal precipi-
tation is anticipated in those states
next spring on the basis of light pre-
cipitation this fall"
Reports of existing conditions,
however, showed that the situation
is serious. Gov. Walter Wexford, of
North Dakota, told the conference
that water levels throughout his
state are seriously diminished, con-
stituting major problem for the
state and federal governments.
Another official declared that
North Dakota's live stock situation
is "most deplorable, that virtually
no live stock is left on ranges in
western sections of the state and
that feed is seriously scarce in all
sections.

reception, but it was toned down
somewhat at his request. President
Justo, who already had greeted the
distinguished guest by wireless, met
him at the dock and accompanied
him to the American embassy. Then
Mr.. Roosevelt, Secretary of State
Hull and members of the American
delegation to the peace conference
made a formal call at the govern
ment house.
Next day, after a ride about the
city, President Roosevelt attended
the extraordinary session in the leg
islative palace to open the Pan
American peace conference which
he initiated. A formal dinner for
him at the government house and
a reception for all conference del

third day was a luncheon at the
American embassy in honor of
President and Mrs. Justo. Then
Mr.. Roosevelt embarked and started
on the return trip, with a brief stop
scheduled for Montevideo, capital
Of Uruguay.
On his way south President
Roosevelt stopped a few hours in
Rio de Janeiro, where half a mil
lion citizens turned out in the rain
to give him an enthusiastic well

him the magnificent Brazilian cap
ital, and he addressed an extraor-

Mystery Man" Zaharoff
Dies in Monte Carlo

THE cause of world peace should
l. be the gamer by the death of
Sir Basil Zaharoff in Monte Carlo.
Known as the mystery man of
Europe" he was for many years
the master salesman of ornaments
and amassed an immense fortune
in that and other business enter
prises. Born in Odessa, Russia, of
Greek parents, Zaharoff had all of
Europe for his field of operations.
He was knighted in England, be-
came a citizen of France and mar
ried Spanish duchess. He gave
valuable aid to the Allies during
the World war, founding chairs of
aviation at Paris and Petrograd
and presenting $4,000 pounds ster-

Labor Department Shows
Living Costs Increase

T ABOR department statistics re-
- ported a jump of IA per cent in
wholesale prices in the approx
mately three years in which the
Roosevelt administration has sought
to raise the general price level.
The widest gain was registered for
farm products, which rose from an
index figure of 58.7 three years ago
to 85.5. Foods increased from 65.4
to 83.5. All commodities other than
farm products and food increased
from IT'S to 80.8.
AS figured into living costs, the
department statistics covering
purchases by wage earners and
lower salaried workers showed an
increase for all items, from 772 at
the close of 1888 to 82.4 in Septem-
ber, this year. The increases were:
Food, 69.4 to 84.3; clothing, 1872 to
1876; rent, 63.9 to 646; house fur
nishing goods, 1875 to 1872. Fuel
and light costs fell from 90.3 to 87.4
and miscellaneous items were off
from 96.8 to 96.5.

League Council to Deal
With Spanish War

CPAIN'S government appealed to
- the council of the League of
Nations to deal with the menace to
peace and good will among ma
tions'' allegedly created by Italo-
German recognition of the fascist
rebel junta. Secretary J. A. C. Ave
mol thereupon convoked the council,
though at this writing the date for
the meeting is unsettled. 1t was be-
lieved Italy would refuse to attend
the session; Germany is no longer
a member of the league. French
statesmen didn't approve the Span
ish action, feeling that it compli-
Gated an already serious situation
and could do no good.
Excitement over the torpedo at
tack on a loyal Spanish cruiser by
submarine which the Madrid gov
ernment more than limited was
German vessel was allayed by the
report that the undersea boat was
a Spanish submarine that had gone
over to the rebel side.
Madrid was being continually
hammered by rebel shells and
bombs, and there was intense fight
ing daily in University City, the
northwest section of the capital,
where the insurgents had penetrat-
ed. The American embassy was
closed on orders from Washington
and Eric c. Wendelin, charge daft
faires, gave protection to those
Americans who wished to go to Va
lencia to board a United States war
ship. The German and Italian en-
bassies, abandoned by their staffs,
were seized and sealed by the de-
fenSe junta and number of Fas-
cist refugees were arrested in the
former. Berlin scoffed at this ac-
ton but Rome called it banditry.

Crisis Seems to Be Near

come from London saying that
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin has
told King Edward that his marriage
to Mrs. Wally Simpson, if he con-
templates such a move, will not
have the support of the govern
ment or the parliament. Baldwin
is said to have first conferred with
Clement Atlee, Labor party leader,
and established common front of
Conservative and Labor parties on
their attitude toward this affair. 1t
was also reported that the king had
been formally requested by MEM
bers of the cabinet and of the peer
age to make known Immediately to
the British public his intentions with
