Steel Company Official
CANDLES Away $4,000
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Nov. 8.-The United
States attorneys Office and the
FBI have been ordered to investi-
gate testimony by young steel
company executive that he gam
bled away $4,000 of his COM
pany's money in a vain attempt
to save it from ruin.
Charles Leaf. 81, president of
the Mid-America Steel Warehouse
Co., told a Federal referee in
bankruptcy his gambling spree be-
gan in Las Vegas, New. on Octo-
ber II. In three days, he said,
he won $4,000 at dice and black
jack games. But then, he testi-
fed, he lost the $40, 900. plus $110,-
900 of his firms money at the
rate of about $4,000 a day. He
said he resorted to the gambling
when he saw the company going
from worse to worse"
Federal Judge j. Sam Perry yes
terday named a receiver for the
company. which organized two
years ago.

eve do not have the data COM
piled on rainfall for the country
as a whole for October" Wealth
er Bureau spokesman told The
Star today. but it seems to be
without much doubt the driest
October of record.
"Over much of the country in
October. the rainfall was less
than 10 per cent of normal, and
in large area in the Southwest,
there was none at all.
"Only a few small areas had
normal or above. Probably the
final figures will show that Octo-
ber had less than Is per cent of
normal rainfall for the United
States"
This would be twice as bad as
previous october drouhts. In
1891. October rainfall was so per
cent of normal; in 1895. 81 per
cent of normal. and in 1886, so
per cent. All were considered
drought periods.
Some Temporary Relief
The Weather Bureau spokes-
man said drought conditions now
exist over practically the entire
country except the Florida penin-
sula, parts of the Northeast and
a few spots in the far Southwest,
being this extensive for over six
weeks.
Except for some temporary re-
lief, it existed in much of the
southern portion of the Western
Great Plains since the end of
May"
The Weather Bureaus summary
of the past weeks weather said
the drought only intensified. with
140 forest fires in Alabama-15
of them out of control because of
lack of fire fighters. Other States
reported fewer but nevertheless
troublesome forest fires.
May Become Critical
In the key wheat-groWing State
of Kansas. farmers planted the
grain in dusty soil. The seeds
won't sprout unless rain comes.
But water was so scarce even the
humidity was low.
Pastures and ranges are eX-
tremely dry in virtually all sec
tions of the country" the Wealth
er Bureau summary said. PRO
spective forage supplies are short
IN many sections and may result
in a critical situation if the VIM
ter is severe.
"Much supplemental feeding of
livestock is already necessary, and
forced movement of cattle to mar
ketS continues"

Reorganization Dec. |
In New District Setup
By the Associofed Press

The Bureau of Internal Reve-
nue completes its national reor-
ganization December l with es-
Establishment of tax districts with
headquarters in Philadelphia, Los
Angeles, Denver, st. Louis. Dallas,
Detroit or Cleveland and Birming-
ham, Ala.
The bureau announced yester-
day that a new three-State tax
district would come into being
next Wednesday with installation
ceremonies at Philadelphia, which
will be headquarters for Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and Delaware.
10th Tax District.
Philadelphia will be the 10th
such tax district headquarters to
be established under a reorgani-
cation plan approved last spring
by Congress. Six other districts
remain to be established by the
December l deadline which the
bureau has fixed for completing
reorganization.
The Revenue Bureau has main
tanned close secrecy about ad-
vance details of new districts. Bu-
reau officials are forbidden to dis
close in advance the geographic
makeup of the new districts or
their personnel. The personnel for
the Philadelphia district has not
yet been disclosed.
An outside source familiar with
the bureaus plans today disclosed
the geographic setup for the re-
manning six districts.
Districts Listed.
They are.
Los Angeles-To be headquar-
ters for California, Nevada and
the Territory Of Hawaii.
Denver - For Colorado, Wy
oming, Utah, Arizona and New
Mexico.
Birmingham - For Mississippi,
Alabama and Louisiana.
st. Louis-For Missouri, Kansas
iand Arkansas.
Dallas-For Texas and Okla
homa.
Detroit or Cleveland - Head
quarters fol- Ohio and Michigan.
The source said there was a pos
Isibility two districts might be ere
ated, with Cleveland the head
quarters for Ohio and Detroit for
Michigan, but that it was more
likely one of the two cities would
be chosen to head a tWo-State
district.
1t was learned earlier this week
that Commissioner of Internal
Revenue John Dunlap plans to
resign soon and become district
commissioner at Dallas.

Southern Democrat
Viewed Possible for
Eisenhower Cabinet

The EISENHOWER cablnet may IN
clude a Southern Democrat and
perhaps a woman, some Republi-
can leaders said today in noting
sources of the party's huge vote
and suggesting that the same sup
port must be strengthened for 1856.
Senator Mundt, South Dakota
who long has urged
closer alignment between Repub-
licans and Southern Democrats
predicted that President-elect
Eisenhower would select South
erner for the cabinet IF the prop
er man came along"
Others said they believed such
an appointee might be a Demo-
crat. Gen. Eisenhower obtained
vigorous campaign aid from DEM
ocratic Cows. James F. Byrnes of
South Carolina, Robert Kennon
of Louisiana and Allan Shivers of
Texas. While none might want q
cabinet job they would be in a
strong position to recommend
some one.
Woman Quite Likely
1t is quite likely" that the new
cabinet will have a woman men,
ber. in the opinion of Mrs. Ivy
Priest. head of the women's divi-
sion of the Republican National
Committee. She said Gen. Eisen-
hover had assured her he would
appoint women to key Govern
ment posts. possibly including the
cabinet.
One name already has beer
mentioned informally-Mrs. Oveta
Culp Hobby, co-publisher of the
Houston Post. She was the war
time head of the WACS.
Thought of appointing a South
erner is tied in with the advisable
ity of gaining Southern Demo-
cratic cooperation on legislative
and administrative programs. But
an even more important aim, ac-
cording to some G.. o. P. leaders
is to build up the Republican
Party in the South.
Balance With South.
Senator Mundt, who appeared
with Mrs. Priest on CHS radio
program last night, said:
"The South is going to be in a
rather important position in both
houses of Congress because OBJ
viously it is going to have a
balance of power. I think you are
going to see a determined effort
on the part of the Republicans to
work comparatively with the fine
group of Democratic citizens in
the South who helped make this
election possible"
Other G. o. P. strategists in
dicated they were fully aware OF
the need for keeping the South
in the forefront" between now
and 1855. Continued Southern
support would count heavily in
any campaign four years from
now they explained.
Those Republican long range
planners have not forgotten what
happened to Herbert Hoover in
1882 after he carried several
Southern States in 1923.
Speculation increased today
concerning possible cabinet
choices.
Harold E. Stassen, according tc
the American Federation of La
boris weekly newspaper, is slated
to become Secretary of Labor
Mr.. Stassen. former Minnesota
Governor, is president of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania.
II wouldn't care to comment or
any of the numerous speculations
at this time" he added. I'm very
happy at the university"
Switched to Eisenhower.
At the Republican national con-
vention in Chicago last summer
Mr.. StaSSen was a candidate fol
the presidential nomination.

the nation as OF Jan. 1, 1852, had hit
total of 100000 for an all-time
high. Montana, he said, is ninth in
the United States in cattle popula-
ton with 1925, 900 head, or an in
crease Of 100000 over last year.
He declared that the industry was
not getting out of balance for con-
sumner consumption because the
country is experiencing a phenon1e-
nal growth Of population.
He said that one of the worst fea-
lures of the price control idea is that
it typifies the very thing this coun-
try is fighting to avoid-the IMPOSE
ton of government regulations upon
a free market system.
seThe American National Cattle
mems Assn. expresses unalterable
opposition to the continuation of the
unavoidable price controls on meat,
he said.
Mr.. Booth in his talk discussed re-
cent railroad rate increases and the
manner in which they affect the cat
tie industry. He quoted figures and
statistics in his talk which were of
deep interest to the assembled stock
men.
Fridays sessions were started off
with discussion on law enforcement
as it applies to stockmen led by
Ralph Miracle, secretary, Montana
| livestock commission
Abandon Parity"
s'The parity formula as a support
device for farm products should be
abandoned was one of the major
points in the talk given by F. L.
Parsons, Federal Reserve board,
Minneapolis.
''The parity formula by it's very
nature is backward looking" he said
ITS use in support pricing tends to
retard needed adjustments in agri-
culture production It tends to freeze
price relationships according to
some historical base, such as 1910
IA; it is not compatible with the
progressive and dynamic agricul-
tural economy involving continuous
market and chronological changes. !"
DR.. H. F. Wilkins, state veterinar-
ian, Helena stressed the need for
more veterinary research and stated
that research was needed on three
levels-the national, regional and the
state. The latter should deal with
those disease problems effecting local
production problems.
"Only intense research" he said,
"can prevent devastating losses"
and he listed more than dozen local
disease problems, including shipping
fever, foot rot, pink eye, red water,
rabies, water belly and many others
that cause heavy losses in Montana,
He stressed several disadvantages for
the present off-shore planning for
the location of an infectious disease
research center and stated the need
for additional study by location
planning committee.
Foot-Mouth Situation
Wilkins was followed on the pro
gram by DR.. F. ]. Mulhem, observes

who was one of the leading Ameri
can veterinarians who helped figh
