Plan Revival of Shelterbelt as a Drouth Barrier Money Is Available in Spite of Con gress Veto Grant Drouth Aid to Iowa and Nebraska. Washington. Morris Cooke, chair man of President Roosevelt's great plains drouth committee, said the ad ministration is considering reviving the abandoned "shelterbelt" of trees as a part of its long range drouth prevention program. Disclosing that the committee had discussed the proj ect at its meeting earlier Friday, Cooke said it was "not dead, but very active." Questioned a3 to the failure of con gress to provide money lor con tinuing the tree planting venture, Cooke said some money still is avail able out of previous allocations. Planting of belts of trees running from north to south across the mid- dlewest was undertaken by the ad ministration previously with the ex pressed hope of holding the soil and changing climatic conditions. With a program for aiding the smaller' farmers in the drouth area underway, and long range rehabil itation studies launched, federal of ficials turned to the puzzling prob lem of helping big farm operators who cannot qualify as "destitute." From the northwest cattle coun try and the great lake3 dairy sec tions arose a new call for govern ment assistance in financing huge herds, owners of which do not come under current relief classifications. Responding to requests by Gover nors Cochran and Herring, federal of ficials agreed to cash and work relief for drouth Impoverished farmers in Iowa and Nebraska, the program to be decided upon at later conferences. Iowa was added to the officially designated drouth states by an order listing 36 counties for emergency treatment.

The WPA added Missouri to the list of states receiving xtra work allotments because of the drouth and authorized immediate jobs for 3,000 needy farmers. 3. The Montana board of railway at least 50 percent in freight rates on feed concentrates. 4. The department of agriculture added barley "in the upper Mississippi valley to the list of feed grains defin- itely reduced in harvest prospects by heat and the drouth. 5.

ASK FOR SPECIAL SESSION Omaha. Roy M. Harrop, president of the Public Ownership league of Nebraska, mailed to Gov.

Speedy Freight Cut is Sought for Kansas Conference for Reductions in Eates in Kansas Drouth Areas Sug gested by Governor. Topeka, Kas. An immediate con ference between Kansas, railroad and interstate commerce commission rep resentatives on methods of securing emergency freight rate reductions for Kansas drouth areas was suggested by Governor Landon. In a telegram to E. B. Boyd, Chi cago, chairman of the Western Trunk Line committee, Landon said we cannot Interpret" an ICC ruling against the 1934 "certificate" plan of slashing rates on cattle, water and feed in drouth areas, "as a valid rea son for not putting into effect im mediately reduced rates." The republican presidential nom inee sent the telegram after a confer ence with state officials. He suggest ed that the conference be held in Chicago Monday and designated Harry Umberger, dean of the Kan sas State college and state extension director of the AAA as the Kansas representative. The drouth conference occupied a large part of Landon's morning. Af ter' attending a meeting of the board of trustees of Baker university, Bald win, Kas., the candidate held a lunch eon conference with Representative Chester C. Bolton of Ohio, chairman of the republican congressional cam paign committee. "The outlook today for a repub lican majority, in the next house looks very encouraging," Bolton afterward said he had told the governor. "The situation in Ohio looks very good at this time. The people seem to be just as anxious to elect a republican house this year as to elect a republican president." ROBBED IN TAVERN Omaha.
