Heavy Rainfall Ends
Devastating Dry Spell

A total of 100 inches of rain fell
throughout Noble county the past
weekend, beginning Friday morning
at 700 o'clock and continuing on
through Sunday morning.
This figure was registered at the
official weather station in Sharon,
managed by Frank Burlingame.
Friday, Noble county had 1.10
inches of rain and 80 inches Satur-
day evening and Sunday morning
The rain came in the nick of time
to save the corn crop in this county
although there is still the possibility
that not all of it will mature now
But for the time being, the corn
outlook is much brighter but the
farmers still contend it will be be-
low normal here.

One Mans Opinion

The department of justice investigation of housing will start the department finds house. Conspiracy suspected in the price of materials used by $3-an-hour plasters, $2.81an-hour plumbers and $2l5-an-hour carpenters. The theory is that if the price of paint could be forced down 40 cents gallon would miss the few 215hour pennies paid to the painter. Look for magnificent drive to bring down materials costs and the home builder up to $16. don't know that this investigation will replace the odfashioned flying boat probe but it has almost many interesting angles. There is the eager de- sire to grab hold of the right problem by the wrong end

But Maine Republicans warming up Senator Brewster for vice president. That automatically puts Howard Hughes on the Democratic ticket.

important section of the American press began to clam for changes in Chiang's regime as early as 1914.
 As soon as peace proclaimed in 1945 Chiang was confronted with preemptory demand by the United States that he end his feud with the Communists This was to be done by formation of Natonalist-Commun ist coalition government for United China
 Obviously, while these negotiations were in progress there little time to devote to other political prob lems Meanwhile, too, the Nationaists position de- erioratng because the Russians were evacuatng iber aed Manchura in such way as to turn that area to Communist control.
 Today Chna's political and economic situation is complicated than it was at the end of the war
 But this is due much to Soviet intrigues and Amer can ndecsion is to Chinese neptitude Chiang has not had free hand in his country until recently
 The generalissimo must have suppressed wry smile when he suggested to group of American editors that the United States, too, had stake in his fight against lated recognition in this country But not long ago State Department insisting that Chiang Ka-Shek invited the Communists into his government.

Fair Treatment For China

 When inequalities in Chinas social system taken of their true perspective and measured by Western standards it is easy to get distorted picture of cond tions in that vast and complex country.
 The so-caled Chinese republic little than name when the Japanese began war in 1937 Warlords controlled certain areas the Communists others From then until 1941 China stood alone against the invader and from 1941 until 1945 Nationalist China itself divided between Chiangs forces and the Japs.

Call off The Olympic Games

(Rocky Mountain NewS)
 BRITISH NEWSPAPERS ask if it is fair for their athletes to compete with wel-ed Americans in next years Olympic games in London in view of the rigid diet enforced in England British gofers oarsmen tennis players and boxers consistently have been losing to Americans They are certain that nearstarvation rations have been con- tributing factor
 The weekly food allowance in England is egg, three of butter three of margarine two of bacon two of cheese and the equivalent of two small hamburg Some American athletes we know consume that much meat and fats in day, and top it off with thick steak Certainly, the low-caloried English diet don't produce the stamina needed by miller. And in most European countries the fare isn't any better than that in England
 It would be credit to to win honors in the Oly pic Games against unnaurally weakened competition Concedng this point, sports writer has suggested that in addition to the food take to London for own team members undertake to supply all of the 40O0 athletes for the 16day poried of the games That short-sighted and unsound to the prob lem.
 Stamina is developed during the long training ordeal not under actual competition. A new, unusually rich diet then would be harmful rather than otherwise And would it be fair for feed 4O00 husky athletes and ignore the genuine needs of thousands of nursing mothers and small children, not only in England, but all over the continent? and elsewhere? If only we could! But we don't have that much food.
 The solution to the Olympics problem is not to hold the games next year.
 This international competition was founded the theory that it contributed to international amty Much in the record of previous events argues to the contrary In 1948 the issue would be oversuffed America yer ha-starved rest of the world We can't afford to be placed in that position.

 If they are held, should decline to participate.

U. s. Strength Best
 Bar To Aggression

spectacle presented by the repub- lies of the Western Hemisphere as their representative confer at Rio de Janeiro is immensely comfort ing.
 Of course, it would be a gross exaggeration to say that state of
 perfect harmony obtains among the twenty-one republics. That is simply not true.
 In some parts of Latin America echoes of old fears and suspicious of the United States as the "coluS-
 sus of the north can still be heard. The Communists are doing their best to keep those fears and
 suspicious from dying out.
 The scars of ancient feuds, such as that over Tacno Africa, have not altogether healed. Almost ev-
 cry one of the Latin American na-
 tions is suffering from economic
 dislocationS aggravated when not
 produced by the war and some are suffering acutely. The tendency in
 some places is to blame the United 1 States or at least look to this coun- try for succor that may not come or prove adequate.
 There are certain immediate is- sues, such as the question of Nica- ragua and the problems arising out of the Paraguayan civil war,
 which may tend to divide the Rio conferees. Taking all these things into ac- count, it can still fairly be said l that there is more harmony at Rio
 than was to be found at any other i international conference that has 1 been held during recent years. 1 Fed doubt that the conference
 will achieve its intended purpose,
 namely, draw up treaty of mu- tual defense to which the nations of the Americas will subscribe.
 This will mean completing the
 task under taken at Chapultepec
 in l945. It will mean putting the
 capstone on the arch of hemi-
 sphere solidarity which has been
 a century and a quarter in the
 building.
 The treaty of Rio de Janeiro which is expected to result from the present deliberations will bind the nations of the new world in a security system designed to mob- ilize the full weight of the twenty one republics against aggression from within or without.
 The importance of such a de-
 velopment is not to be discounted. It must also not be exaggerated.
 Upon his arrival at Rio, Secretary of State George C. Marshall de- scribed the conference as one to help consolidate the peace of the world"
 Taken literally, this gives the Rio conference a significance it simply does not have and cannot
 achieve. It is wholly desirable, of course, to set up barriers within
 the hemisphere so that war among
 the American nations will hence forth become impossible. It is equally desirable to link the na- tions of the new world together in
 such a way as to make the defense of every one of them the concern of all. Whether such an arrange ment can in and of itself discour- a % f,,f,,ro approccOrc iS far from
