He is leaving to his state depart- ment aides the task of sifting through the many questions confronting the countries before his conference with Litvinoff. From time to time, such as Fri- day, the president will serve as a clearing house for these issues in per- sonal talks with Litvinoff. He does not expect any necessarily quick so- lution of the complex angles that re- main to be resolved.

HUGE PLANE DRIVES INTO WOODED HILLS Fire Follows Crash After Pilot Loses Way During Fog in Oregon Portland, Ore., Nov. 10.—(#)—Four Persons were killed and five seriously injured when a southbound United Air Lines passenger plane crashed in- to thickly wooded hills 2% miles northwest of here Thursday night and burst into flames after the pilot had apparently lost his way in a dense fog. The four who were killed were burn- ed beyond recognition and only the heroic efforts of a 20-year old stew- ardess and the co-pilot saved the other occupants from a similar fate. ‘The dead were tentatively identified, from the passenger list, as: Dr. Robert C.

With strike activity apparently sub- siding on all fronts in the mid-west, Arnold Gilberts, president of the Wis- consin unit of the Farmers Holiday association, and Walter M. Singler, president of the Wisconsin milk pool, decided Thursday night to ask their organizations for a vote of confidence. At meetings in all county court- houses of the state, called for Mon- day night at 8 o'clock, farmers will be asked to vote whether the strike shall continue and to pledge support of re- call proceedings against public of- ficials who have opposed the strike. Gilberts and Singler notified county leaders of their organizations that they would recommend the calling off of the strike if the majority of farm- ers, in cooperation with labor, would Pledge themselves to sign the recall Petitions. Strike activity had subsided throughout Wisconsin, but anti-strike groups in many sections were being organized and the situation was still tense. In Iowa, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Illinois and Ne- braska there were indications that the outbursts of violence which marked \the beginnings of the strike had ceased. Pickets were gradually dis- appearing from highways and strike {leaders concentrated their efforts on the closing of milk plants by peace- | ful persuasion. Members of thé Wisconsin ‘society of equity meeting in annual fend tion at Chetek, Wis., voted to merge | with the state branch of the National | Farmers Union. Neither of these or- ganizations, claiming a combined membership of about 25,000, have en- | dorsed the farm strike. RENO WOULD ORGANIZE GOVERNORS OF MIDWEST Des Moines, Nov. 10.—()}—Milo Reno, president of the striking Nation- al Farmers Holiday association, Fri- day suggested in a letter to midwest- ern governors that they “associate themselves in a midwest governors’ association for the purpose of protect- ing their farmer citizens as well as home owners in towns and cities.” Reno's letter was addressed to the governors of Iowa, Minnesota, North and South Dakota and Wisconsin who last week took to Washington a farm relief program drafted after a con- ference with agricultural leaders here. “As it stands today,” Reno's letter read, “President Roosevelt has defi- nitely aligned himself with the Wal- lace program of bribery, compulsion and in the end slavery for the farmer. Our only hope of stopping this situa- tion without serious difficulty is that the governors who went to Washing- ton in the interest of the farmers, Proposing a splendid. program, and j | Were slapped in the face, their requests belittled and practically ignored, will have the courage to associate them- selves in a midwest governors’ associa- tion for the purpose of protecting their farmer citizens as well as home- owners in towns and cities from the confiscation of their properties and eviction from their homes.” RAILWAY BRIDGES ARE DAMAGED BY BLASTS Missouri Valley, Ia., Nov. 10.—(@)— Two railway bridges—one on the Lili- nois Central and one on the & North Western line were slightly a oe ARREST SUSPECT IN FARMER STRIKE DEATH Sioux City, Ia., Nov. 10.—(?)—Pos- sible reopening of the picket war swept through the cabin as through a | pect. blast furnace. \ ‘Then, while the stewardess remain- | FIVE ARRE: cotter ae
