THREE KILLED BY FLAMES
Redwood Falls, Minn. A mother
and two sons were burned to death
while the father and his brother
were seriously burned in a fire which
destroyed their farm home near here
early Monday. Physicians said re
covery of the father is doubtful. The
dead are Mrs. F. N. Stronach, fort3';
George, twelve, and Gordon, ten.
Stronach, forty-five, was burned sev
erely but succeeded in escaping with
his brother, William, thirty-nine.
Mrs. Stronach saved two small
children, both under six years of age,
before she died in a vain attempt
to rescue George and Gordon, who
apparently were burned to death in
their beds. She had carried the two
smaller children to safety and re-
! turned to the burning house for the
; others when the floors collapsed.

senate Tuesday by Senator Bora.
(R.), Idaho, on Legge's statement

thinks about the debenture." said
Borah.
"Legge should spend a little more
time learning what the farmers want
and a little less time giving out state
ments to the newspapers."
Senator McKellar (D.), Tennessee,
called attention to an "advertise
ment" of the Kiplinger-Washington
Co., which he said, was undertaking
