SEVERE STORIN LEVELED CORN IN MINNESOTA Fruit Trees Stripped Near Albert Lea by Five-Inch Drenching St. Paul, Aug. 2—)—Minnesota today is taking toll of its property and crop damage which resulted from one of the heaviest drenchings in several years, when rain, hail and wind storms struck the state yes- terday. Many fields of corn, especially in southern sections of the state, are flattened, while others are inundated, as results of rains which ranged from almost six inches to less than a half inch in some districts. Although the rain, wind and hail storms were quite genera! through- out the state, southern and south- western Minnesota bore the brunt of the storm, Albert Lea reporting a rainfall of 5.70 inches. Despite the severity of the storm, Property damage was confined to telephone, telegraph and power lines, and outbuildings on various farms. While the storm raised havoc with many corn fields, other sections re- ported that the rains were a boon to the maturing corn. Harvesting operations, which are getting under way in many parts of the state, to- day are halted because of the wet condition of the fields. Fruit trees also suffered ex- tensively from the hail and heavy downpour. Heavily loaded apple and plum trees were stripped of their fruit in the districts surrounding Albert Lea. Crop damage, according to reports received up to noon today, centered in the vicinities of St. Cloud, Wells, Albert Lea, and Austin. North and South Dakota points also reported rains, but the precipi- tation did not reach the totals ex- perienced in Minnesota. VIEWS DIFFER ON AMUNDSEN Moscow, Aug. 2.—()—Conflicting views as to the probable survival of Roald Amundsen and of the six men carried away with the balloon part of the dirigible Italia, were given here today when Prof. Vise and the aviator Babushkin arrived to report on the rescue work of the ice break- y a medical doctor of a local clinic in a letter to Mr. Martin Henry of the Olympia Cafe and Confectionery of Bismarck as the result of a physical examination, on August Ist, 1928.

Prof. Vise was head of the expedition aboard that vessel, Babushkin said he believed that Amundsen and the five men with him in the French seaplane piloted by Rene Guilbraud, perished, his theory was that the plane fell into the open ocean during a storm and sank immediately. Prof. Vise, on the contrary, was confident. that the Amundsen party had landed on the ice cap. He said they could exist there for a yedr if necessary by hunting pola® bears and reindeer around the numerous islands, The chance of the balloon party or “Alessandyi group” of the Nobile expedition were not so good in the professor’s opinion pecause of their inexperience in polar work.
