fare in Europe Starts.

President Roosevelt said today that if
an actual war crisis develops in Eu
rope or the Far East he immediately
will call congress bock in special ses
sion to enact legislation to preserve
the neutrality of the United States
on a basis of international law..
Choosing his words carefully, Mr.
Roosevelt said at a press conference
that he knows of no reason at the
present time, however, for calling con
gress back before its regular session
next January.
But if, Defore congress reconvenes,
Mr. Roosevelt said, an actual war
crisis becomes imminent in Europe
or the Far East, he immediately will
convene congress. In other words, he
said, if it becomes reasonably certain
that htere was going to be war he
would call a special session to issue
neutrality of the United States along
the lines of international law so that
this country would not become in
volved in the conflagration.
The president today signed the So
cial Security Revision act. freezing
payroll taxes at 1 per cent for the
next three years to effect a $905,000,
000 tax saving for business and em
ployees. CATTLE ON FEED LARGER

of steel bins to store 43,279 900
bushels of corn.
Six companies were given con
tracts for 25,500 bins to cost $3,

Nebraska Corn
Yield Estimate
10 Bu. to Acre
State-Federal Statistician Anderson
Sees Very Large Decrease in
State Yield in July.
A. E. Anderson, state - federal
agricultural statistician, attributed
the market reduction in the coin
crop forecast from 167,325,000
bushels July 1 to 72,750,000 Aug. 1
to the extremely hot weather dur
ing the second week of July. This is
an average yield of ten bushels per
acre.
"Our corn this year," he com
mented, "was a little early and the
foliage was unusually heavy. Just
at the critical time when it should
have been shooting ears, we received
a few days of extremely high tem
peratures. "With the heavy foliage to sup
port, much of the corn simply
couldn't get moisture enough to keep
the plant alive in the face of the
heat and at the same time sprout
ears. Usually, we don't get our ex
tremely hot weather until after the
corn has tasseled and eared, but this
year the heat came early."
Nebraska produced 107,735,000
bushels of corn last year, and the
average yield per acre was 14.5 bush
els. Average production for the 10
year period from 1928-37 is 159,
176,000 bushels and the average
yield 16.7 bushels.
If the 72,750.000 bushel forecast
as of Aug. 1 follows thru this year,
the crop will be the smallest pince
the extreme drouth year of 1936,
when 26.S59.000 bushels were pro
duced. Wheat Estimate
Nebraska's 1939 winter wheat
crop was estimated at 3 4,432,000
bushels by the U. S. agriculture de
partment, based on Aug. 1 condi
tions. The figure was the same as
a month ago. The average yield was
fixed at 11.5 bushels.
The same forecast as a month ago
also was made for the 1939 Nebras
ka's oats crop 19.040.000 bushels
with an average yield per acre of
14 bushels.
Potato prospects, meanwhile, de
clined from 6.020.000. bushels July 1
to 5.590.000 bushels Aug. 1. The
average yield a month ago was ex
pected to be 70 bushels; on Aug. 1
it was set at 65 bushels.
BELITTLE BURKE STATEMENT
PITTSBURGH, Aug. 12 (UP)
Democratic leaders attending the
Young Democrats national conven
tion were inclined to belittie the
prediction of Senator Edward R.
Burke, D., Neb., that President
Roosevelt will head a third party
ticket in 1940 to oppose a coalition
of republicans and democrats. x
In his statement issued at Omaha,
Senator Burke said the coalition can
didate should be someone like Sen
ator Robert A. Taft, R., Ohio.
While withholding official com
ment, several prominent democrats
indicated that they believed it was
a case or sour grapes on benator
Burke's part and his prediction had
been anticipated.
A leading Nebraska democrat,
who did not want his name used,
said:
"Oh. well I could predict that the
end of the world is coming but it
wouldn't mean anything. As long as
it is not a vital issue I can't see any
reason for making a statement."
SEE ADEQUATE STOCK SUPPLY
LINCOLN, Aug. 12 (UP) Sor
ghums, and other late wheat crops
promise to provide an adequate food
supply for Nebraska livestock despite
the drastic slump in corn prospects,
the state federal division of agricul
ture statistics reported today.
Commenting on the slump in the
corn forcast from 167,325,000 bushels
July 1 to 72,7500,000 August 1, Crop
Statistician A. E. Anderson said:
"Extremely high temperatures with
hot winds coupled with drouth during
the second week of July is responsible
for the damage. A few of the extreme
southeastern counties and those bord
ering the Missouri river from Rich
ardson to Cedar, inclusive, will pro
duce fair to good crops cf corn.
FAIRS ATTRACT MOTORISTS
SAN FRANCISCO (UP) A cress
section survey of the more than 1.
000,000 members of the American
Automobile Association revealed that
more than three-fourths will visit
either the San Francisco or New
York world's fair this year, or both.
Nearly 25 per cent will stay longer
than the usual two-week vacation
period and more than 40 per cent
will drive 3,000 miles.
