PAGE FOUR THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1938 Ten Fatalities Attributed To Record Drouth Heat Continues Through Fifth Consecutive Day; Government Acts CHICAGO, July 7.--()-More than a score of deaths were counted to- night in the harvest of havoc wrought by record breaking heat and month old drought. The deaths included at least 10 fatalities attributed to the intense heat which scorched through its fifth consecutive day of better than 100 degree readings with indications that yesterday's top of 119 would be equal- led in many places and probably sur- passed as thousands sought refuge from the burning rays in lakes and rivers. Early afternoon readings including an unofficial maximum of 118 at suburban Des Plaines and Chicago's highest of the year 102 on the mu- nicipal airport thermometer. The weather bureau in Washington announced no alleviation was likely for the next two or three days in- creasing the pessimism of planters that corn's "critical period" might resolve into added disaster. To facilitate Federal relief meas- ures, the agriculture department's drought committee, designated 97 counties in North and South Dakota, Montana and Wyoming as "emer- gency drought counties." Relief ac- tivities will be concentrated in this area and will include, reduced freight rates on livestock, WPA projects, re- settlement loans and grants, and the proposed cattle purchase plan. In one of the wildest markets in months, wheat zoomed to a new high price for the season-a peak since August of the drought year of 1934- and then was whirled downward al- most a cent below yesterday's close on an avalanche of selling orders. Rain- fall in tht Saskatchewan sector of the drought territory was credited with causing the reversal. After selling as high as $1.10 a bushel, the first se- rious break in the dry spell market ended with July delivery at $1.05. Wedding Plans Are Announced By Mrs. Owen First Woman Minister Will Marry Captain Of Danish King's Court COPENHAGEN, Denmark, July 7.- (0)-A quiet romance of King Chris- tian's Danish court became tonight the brief betrothal of Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, America's gracious "Madame Minister." She will wed the flaxen-haired Kammerjunker Captain Borge'Rohde, 42-year-old honorary gentleman groom to Denmark's ruler, in New York. The date, it was reported, will be tomorrow or Thursday; the place, the Long Island estate of Mrs. Owen's daughter, Mrs. Robert Lehman. Mrs. Owen, 50 years old, the hand- some daughter of William Jennings Bryan, is the United States' first woman minister plenipotentiary.- She reached the United States last Sunday on two months' leave, and in- tends to participate, in President Roosevelt's campaign for reelection. Captain Rohde, whose mother an- nounced the engagement today, is expected in New York tomorrow. He asked for and received permis- sion of the foreign office to wear his uniform while abroad, presumably at the wedding. This consists of a tall bearskin cap, a scarlet jacket and light blue trous- ers with silver stripes. With this colorful regalia Captain Rohde is entitled to wear the decora- tion of a knight of the Belgian order of the crown. It was conferred on the officer by the late King Albert of Belgium for services in commanding a guard of honor during the latter's visit to Denmark in 1926. Denmark heard the official an- nouncement of the betrothal over the radio tonight. . Mrs. Owen, in a long-distance tele- phone call to Washington, confirmed the betrothal but made no further comment. Her friends in New York said she was out of town on a brief visit. In Washington, authorities said Mrs. Owen would not lose her citizen- ship by marriage to the Danish cap- tain, and, subsequently, would not have to resign her ministerial post unless she so chose. Mrs. Owen, who is intensely pop- ular in Denmark, met the six-foot captain in the king's lifeguards but six months ago. Season Starts For Education League N.E.A.

Box Score AMERICAN National, State Politics Keep Landon On Job Urges State Legislature To Pass Social Security Amendment TOPEKA, Kans., July 7.--(I)-Gov. Alf M. Landon, dividing a busy day between national politics and state legislative affairs, urged upon fel- low Kansans today a state constiu- tional amendment to permit "proper" participation in the "Republic ob- ligation" of social security. The Republican presidential nom- inee opened a special session of the state legislature with a personal ad- dress to perspiring and shirt-sleeved legislators, who crowded the col- umned house chamber in the west wing of the capital. He recommended submission and ratification of constitutional changes designed to clear the way for full participation in the Federal security law. But in doing so, Landon stressed that the New Deal program and the Republican platform upon which he seeks the presidency provided "dif- ferent" plans for social security. Later in the day, after conferences in which national party leaders said they reported evidences of a growing Landon trend, the Governor issued a brief formal statement on social se- curity. "Any proposed amendment to the constitution," said Landon's address, "should merely grant to the legisla- ture of the state the power to enact laws to enable this state to join in any such final act for this purpose as may ultimately become the settled law upon this question." "Social security in the end," Lan- don said, "can only be built upon character and religion and industry, but in the meantime our natural hu- manity and the employment program of a great industrial civilization re- quires the community through its government, to protect those who by reason of age or other misfortune may have claims upon us. Gasoline Truck Strikes Parked Car; One DeadI Pinned beneath the wreckage of a burning gasoline truck, Mrs. Annie Given, Detroit Negro, was burned to death on Michigan Avenue near Ypsi- lanti early yesterday after the gaso- line truck had careened into the parked auto in which she was await- ing the return of her husband, who had gone for aid to a punctured tire. Two other occupants of the parked auto, Edward Hill and Harry Ander- son, both of Detroit, were injured. Stephen Bourgeois,, River Rouge, driver of the truck, escaped injury. Pulling two trailers, each of which contained 2,500 gallons of gasoline, the truck struck the parked automo- bile in a collision that ended in a heap of burning wreckage on the lawn All efforts to release Mrs. Given from the wreckage were of no avail. August Given, who was walking to Ypsilanti, was taken here today for questioning by Prosecutor Albert J. Rapp. Because his car is thought to have been parked on the pavement, instead of the broad shoulders pro- vided, it is held possible that he may be charged with negligent homicide. State police re-routed traffic for two hours. -Associated Press Photo. As conditions in the drought areas grew steadily worse, Harry Hop- kins, head of the Works Progress Administration, announced after a conference in St. Paul with Federal and State officials, a drought relief program which he said would give work to all persons whose income has been virtually destroyed by the drought. Shown at conference are, left to right; Thomas 11. Moodie, WPA Administrator for North Dakota; Gov. Tom Berry of South Dakota; and Hopkins. Sees New Pact For Adjustment Of Rhine Crisis (Continued from Pagel1) ciples and these pre-Armistice agree- ments," he said. The statements in the Treaty, known as th "war guilt lies," placing the responsibility for the World War on Germany hurt the German people, Professor Ehrmann said. It is further claimed by the Reich, according to the speaker, that "the League is not an impartial arbiter among powers, but rather an instru- ment for carrying out a victor's peace imposed upon Germany." In conclusion, Professor Ehrmann made an urgent plea for attention to a five-point program, "if the peace of the world is to be preserved." 1. Germany must be accorded full equality, and the "war-guilt lies" must be abandoned along with all accompanying effects resulting from belief in them. 2. A peaceful revision of the post- war settlement must be made be- fore there are further breaches in the Treaty of Versailles and the fab- ric of peace. 3. There must be further revision ..1 I of the League of Nations, so that it I will be no longer regarded as the guardian of the settlements of 1919- 1920. 4. There must be "no more vic- tor's peace-no more dictating- no more imposed peace." 5. In our future peace treaties, there must be embodied ways and means of peaceful modification, so! that there will be "no more inelastic codes of settlement." Map?
