NEBRASKA MID-MONTH CROP REVIEW, MARCH The condition of winter wheat has improved since February 15 and the probable abandonment is less than reported then according to a special report from grain and elevator men to the state and federal division of agricultural statistics. Condition of wheat on March 15 was reported as 83 and probable abandonment 8.4 say the grain men. Now the southwestern counties and spots in some of the eastern Platte valley counties are the only places reporting serious need of moisture immediately. As much as 4 inches of rain in parts of the state were reported the first half of March and opinion vary from the "best pros pects in ten years," from Thayer county to "farmers state 50 of the plants are dead" in Dundy, around Benkelman. In general prospects are good if normal precipitation occurs during the next few weeks. Personal investigation by an out of state crop reporter gave the re port that much of the seed in the southwest did not germinate. Less than 10 of the grain men reported this condition as above normal in their territory but in the southwest it was estimated 18.7 of the seed did not grow. For the state the esti mate was only 8 as failing to start. The condition of wheat reported on February 15, in the regular mid month report was 80.4 and aband onment 10.3 of the seeded acre age.

Only one of the six men imprisoned in the tor pedo room of the sunken submarine S-4 wrote a message during their last 74 hours of life, a thorough inspec tion of the vessel indicated today. This message, a brief one, was found in the clothing of Seaman George Pelnar at the Chelsea naval hospital, where the bodies of the last eight of the S-4's crew were taken following the removal last night. It was written in red crayon on a small piece of cardboard, and read: "My body to Pelnar, 560S South Nineteenth street, Omaha, Neb." The address was that of Pelnar's mother, Mrs. Kate Meleziva, listed in official naval records as his next of kin. The finding of the message . was announced by Secretary Wilbur, who came here today to inspect the S-4 in her drydock and to thank the officers and men of the salvage fleet for their successful efforts during their three months at Provincetown. No record or note relating to the last hours which Lieutenant Graham Fitch and his four other comrades spent in the torpedo compartment was found. The members of the naval board of investigation, how ever, have not given up all hope of finding one. They said that such a message might be on the deck of the compartment, which has not yet been cleaned of its coating of sand. The existence of the Pelnar note became known to the investigating board only after it was released to the press by Secretary Wilbur. A short time before, Captain J. D. Wil son, senior member of the board had assured the secretary that he had made a close search for messages and had found none. All of the eight bodies removed yesterday to the Chelsea naval hos pital have been identified and pre pared for burial. The navy depart ment has authorized the hospital to ship them to the relatives. When the bodies leave the hospital, that of Lieutenant Fitch will have an escort party of six officers and 16 men, and each of the seven enlisted men will have a detail of a chief petty officer and eight men.
