DICKINSON, JR (t.’nltori 1‘rcss .Staff Correspondent) Mexico City, Mo., July 16— Farmers of the southwest today faced tlnanclal disaster ax they poured upon an already glutted market the greatest flood of the golden grain In history at. a. price far below the coat of production. From a dozen markets came word of new Iowa reached aa the huge wheat crop poured In. In Chicago July futures Bold at 50 1-4 cents a bushel, a new low In the history of the market. At. Kansas City the same month sold at 41 5-8, while at Minneapolis the price was 55 7-8. Dark hard wheat, No 1, sold In Kansas City on the cash market from 42 to 60 cents. In country markets of tho southwest, 25 to 30 cents was the usual price for wag on wheat. At Dlghton, Kansas, 24 cents wns accepted. To some men such prices brought discouragement so bitter that they drove their plows Into the Helds to turn under their greatest crop. They were convinced, they said, that harvesting costs would bo too great to Justify tho reaping. Tenant, farmers sought deals with the men who run combines lor hire tiy which tho landlord would get his share and the thresh er the rest, leaving nothing for themselves. In half a hundred Kansas coun ties, great mounds of tho grain— as much as 10,000 bushels in ono pile lay exposed to tho elements, as farmers looked In vain for stor age facilities. Near Hutchinson such |illes dotted tho landscape. Discussions of proposals for a del.t moratorium, advanced by nu merous leaders as the panacea for farm Ills, such as tho wheat sit uation was widespread, Hlnco June 25, when Hop Kdgor C. Howard of Nebraska sent a telegram to President Hoover In which ho sug gested a. live-year moratorium on payment or farm mortgages, with only Interest to he paid promptly, similar proposals have been ad vanced frequently. State Senator K. K. Krlzzpll of Kansas asked for a general defer ment of payment of all debts of the farmer. Me suggested, however, that Iho moratorium bo for only a few months, enabling the farmer to hold bis wheat for a higher price. At Knid, Okla., several hundred farmers gathered last night to dis cuss some such action. Criticism of the farm board was general. Many leaders said that If the hoard would alter Its stand and agree positively to hold Its sur plus of morn than 200,000,000 bushels of old wheat, until the new crop is sold, prices would rise at once. Hundreds of men may sen their farms taken from them by the mortgage-holder even as they reap their greatest crop, because of the bankrupting prices. $20,000 Cf/AIMIID IN KIJIT HTAHTKD TODAY Darringee of $20,000 are claimed In a eult Inatltuted today by Thomiia X, Morgan against Albert and Karollne Jabs.

We want to put an end to this exploitation of our countries an American colonies. •'Throughout Sponlsh America there in unrest.

The expected out break of the elm leaf beetle Is de V( loping, and literally thousands of trees have lost or are doomed to lose all of their foliage within a feu- weeks. This injury occurs In localities where the insect was abundant last year arid at least somewhat numerous in limn. It Is somewhat generally limited to treee standing near buildings, especially of the older type, in cities, villages an din the country. There Is prac tically no damage in localities where trees have been given sys tematic care yearly. The unfortunate part or the sit uation Is that many elms have suf fered greatly during the past two seasons from drought, and in ad dition have been severely damaged by the If leaf beetle. This latter is being repeated the third season with probably disastrous results to ninny trees unless they are aided In their attempts to outgrow the injury. Fortunately there has been an unusual amount of rain this spring, and this has resulted In an abundant foliage. The new leaves and the rapid dropping of the in jured foliage hide the real extent of the Injury. 'I NOTICE!

The foliage Is scanty, frequently yellowish or brown and beneath the trees ar many fallen leaves. There are on the trunks numerous, blackish, yellow-marked grubs a little over half an Inch long, and In the crevices of the bark and at the base of the trees one may nd thousands of these grubs and many brilliant, oval, yel lowish pupae. The grubs have turn ed to pupae, and the beetles will appear about a week later. The growth of new foliage provides very attractive feeding for the beetles, and we may expect a very consid erable second brood which, if al lowed to develop unchecked, may destroy most if not all of the new their leaves. A second stripping In foliage, especially on the trees which have lost practically all of a summer makes It impossible for the trees to regain lost ground the present season and will very like ly result In a great deal of dead wood and In some cases the prac tical ruination of trees. There Is serious damage by the elm leaf beetle along the Bos ton-New York and the New York-Albany Post roads, and many other automobile routes.

Abeledo, of Argentina, to a representative of the Pan American Union. "Before starting on the trip I finished a year’s grad uate work at the University of Minnesota,” continued the visitor. "With three fellow students I set out from Minneapolis for New Or leans; from that city we motored to southern Florida; from there. I traveled alone by bus to Wash ington.” Asked as to why he came to the United States to study, Senor Achl ado replied "I obtained a foreign scholarship from the University of Buenos Aires. I could have gone to Uurope, but I chose the United States, and the University of Min nesota ns the institution for grad uate study. I wanted to know some thing of your life and Institutions. 1 was pleased with the professors; with fellow students I formed c lose ties. Your public libraries and their freedom in lending hooks sur prises me. Student expenses are lowgr at Minneapolis than at Bue nos Aires.” ”1 was further surprised to see the number of young men and wo men in the United States working their way through the university— many as manual or unskilled lab orers. I admire this trail; it, shows the determination of the poor youth to abtaln an education. This cus tom, however, does not. prevail In Argentina, at least only in rare cases.” "How about your motor trip ohsgrvatlona?" Said D, Abeledo: •'Outstanding impressions are, first, your splendid highways; second, the fcatlltles for motorists and the cheapness of travel when one owns his car; third, the many motor ramps and their accommodations and excellent sanitation." 1129.

United States weather bureau experts announced there van no relief in sight before the end of the week. All sections of the plains states reported temperatures approach ing the 100 degree mark yesterday and several cities suffered under even higher thermometer readings. Aberdeen, S.

“Reach for a LUCKY instead” Place your finger on your Adam’s Apple. You are actually touching your larynx—this is your voice box—it contains your vocal chords. When you con sider your Adam’s Apple, you are considering your throat-your vocal chords. Don’t rasp your throat with harsh irritants. Reach for a LUCKY instead. Here is what one of America’s great scientists,whom we retained to study LUCKY STRIKE’S manufacturing process, says about the mellowing effect of Ultra Violet Rays which are included in our exclusive "TOASTING" process: "The effects of this ultra violet Meatmen ton thetobacco have been tested and are found to involve an increase in what is catted the 'mildness* of the tobaceo.” One of America’s greatest writers and editors says this: "When I visited Reidsville and went through the LUCKY STRIKE plant, I found one explanation for the growth of LUCKY STRIKE. Your use of the Ultra Violet Ray in the *Toasting* of tobaccos is a splendid example of achievement. It is the new order of the day.” Remember, LUCKY STRIKE is the only cigarette in America which offers you the throat protection of the exclusive "TOASTING" Process—that secret heating process which expels certain harsh irritants present in all raw tobaccos, and which includes the extra mellowing benefits of modern Ultra Violet Rays. And so we say "Consider your Adam’s Apple." Be care ful in your choice of cigarettes. TUNE IN— The Lucky Strike Dance Orchee* tro, every Tue* day, Thursday and Saturday evening over N« B.

TRUCK HANGS ON TRESTLE, DRIVER UNHURT Miraculous Escape From Death Marks Morning Accident Coppetto’s Five Tomter Goes Through Fence at Lib erty and River After Striking Two Passenger Cars—Suspended on Trestle While DiLeo, Driv er, Climbs to Safety A live-ton truck owned by Phil Coppetto, contractor, and operated by Michael DlLeo of 4G8 Sooth Leonard etreet, waa Involved in a triple collision with a Miraculous escape from desalt for the driver, at the corner of Liberty and River streets this mornrng shortly before 7 o'clock. The big machine swerv ing sharply to one side after col liding with two machines plunged through the wire fence bordering the railroad property near this in tersection and hung over the tres tle, supported only by the wreck age of the fence and a barrier of barbed wire. The' left front wheel of the car rested on the lower sec tion of one of the stone abutments of the trestle, while the motor was wedged In the wooden planks that form a covering of the trestle and mark the approach to the bridge which spans the Mad River. Suspended in the air by the wrecked fence the machine was an object of curiosity to several thou sands persons attracted to the scene. The big truck hung in such a manner that one of the occas ional freight trains en route to the yards of the Scovill Manufatcurlng company would have been unable to pass. As a matter of precau tion word was telephoned to the railroad offices to flash a w'arnipg. The pitch of the machine was such that DiLeo had to climb out of the opposite side of the driver's seat and leap to I1 neareet section of 1 he ahuttmen Had the car con tinued Us win. plunge it would have dropped twenty or thirty feet to the tracks below. Its posi tion Indicated very convincingly that It would have overturned n the descent and the driver would have been trapped and crushed. The only possible explanation of DiLto's escape in due to two things, one that the fence while yielding to the force of the impact was not torn from its moorings and sec ondly the truck was unloaded. It required two service cars and nearly two hours of work to pull the disabled truck back to the street. Itailroad' employes imme diately made necessary repairs. The accident occurred about 6:45 q’plock. For several hours it was necessary top Patrolman Del mar Dunn to direct traffic at this busy Intersection. The Baldwin street busses going to the detour it is obliged to make passed within a few yards of the point where the truck crashed into the fence. Officer Dunn obtained a state ment from three drivers Involved. The truck was proceeding down Uberty street. As it reached the intersection of River street it be came Involved in a collision with a Whippet machine operated by Charles Frey of 21 Middle street. Proceeding a few feet further it came into contact with an Auburn owned by James Koachman of 33 I Eden street. One of the two pas sengers machines had stopped to pick up a passenger when the crash occurred. The damage to the Auburn and Whippet is not considered very serious, but both machines were disabled. Personal reports from the three drivers were expeoted to be filed this afternoon with the police, ex plaining the details of the triple collision and the truck's plunge through the high wire fence. Patrolman James Carey of the motor patrol assisted Patrolman Dunn in handling the heavy traffle which passes this point owing to the condition of Baldwin street.

THAT MIRACLE IN CHICAGO COPPED BY GOOD COPPER Lace Curtain in the Home of Notorious Gangster Was the Cause of AH the Excitement By FREDERICK C. OTHMAV (United Press Staff Correspondent) Chicago, July 16 —(UP)—Chi cago’s “miracle,” the Image of a mother and child on a bare wood en wall has turned ouf to be mere ly the reflection from a late cur tain, located, of all places, in the flat of Sam Genna, notorious gangster. The discovery, in the gray hours before to-day’s dawn, brought back to workaday world the minds of some 25,000 persons who had milled most of the night In the crowded west side streets sur rounding the image. "It’s all a big fake,” shouted an officer after pulling down a shade in the Genna flat and thus satis fying himself that the image across the street had disappeared. "It ain't no miracle.” His announcement sent the crowds wandering homeward, gave half a dozen riot squads a chance at last, to go to bed and caused Dr .1. J. Stoll, principal sufferer from the "miracle” to sigh in relief. Dr Stoll was unfortunate enough to occupy the flat directly In front of the wall where the image had appeared for the last, several nights. Superstitious citizens learned of it, swarmed into Dr Stoll's yard, ruined his flower bed, tore down his fence and climbed up on his garage in. such numbers that the roof caved in. And still came the curious, even the halt and the lame. They blocked traffic on the boulevard. They almost rioted when police tried to hold them. A dozen small boys, perched perilously on a high fen.ee, pelted the crowds with peb bles. That didn't help. Neither I did a leather-lunged hawker who set up a stand under Dr Stoll's parlor window and howled: "Get your near-beer folks, get your near-beer before you see the miracle. It’s hot back in that there alley.' So it was. Half a dozen wo men fainted in the stifling air un der the flickering shadow on the fence before the night was over. Even before the offending cur tain was located in gangster Genoa's window, while the devout looked on soberly, the imago re minded the skeptical of the man In the. moon, something that you see or that, you don't see, accord ing to how imaginative you hap Brisk Bidding On City Bonds Seen $1,140,000 Goes on Block at Special Meeting o!
