But Gives First Relief Figures Show Bismarck One of Spots to Get Excess | Precipitation | —— Though precipitation in North Da- kota for June was below normal at} ‘three-fifths of the 25 reporting sta- tions, the month brought the first) real relief from ‘he long drouth, a compilation by O. W. Roberts, feder- al meterologist here, showed Friday. The rainfall was considerably more than in May. In June, 10 stations recorded pre- cipitation in excess of normal, one re- ceived exactly normal and 15 reported less than normal. However, only five stations recorded in excess of one inch below normal for the month while the previous month all 28 sta- tions recorded rain below normal, ranging from one inch to 2.57 inches below. Bismarvk received 3.39 inches dur- ing June, or .04 of an inch above nor- mal though the deficiency for the year still totals 13.96 inches. Figures for the last five and one half years show that recordings at 26 weather stations are below normal in all but one case—Bowman, where nearly 12 inches of rainfall has been received in excess of the normal.-At the other extreme, Fargo-Moorhead shows a deficiency of more than 41 inches si.ce January 1, 1929. Bowman and Beach were the only two of 28 weather stations which showed above normal precipitation for the previous five years and four months when the planting season started in May of this year. May | brought a protracted drouth and every station reported less than normal rains, and June saw the drouth broken even though at ten stations it did not bring precipitation above normal for the month. Roberts’ table shows: June rain, departure from normal for month of June, and departure from normal for last five and one half years, in inches. Ellendale Garrison .. Grand Forks . Jamestown .. Larimore ‘Lisbon Postmortem Examination Scheduled to Be Held in Hawley, Minn. Friday Moorhead, Minn., July 6.—(#)—Held to district court for trial on first de- giee murder charges, Miss Eunice Iverson, 26, pretty Hawley nurse, was led sobbing into her cell in the Clay county jail in Moorhead Friday. The young woman was arrested Thursday as the aftermath of the @iscovery last Saturday of the mum- mified body of an infant girl in an attic above the office of Dr. M. C. Bergheim, Hawley physician, by whom she had been employed since 1931. Although confessing she is the mother of the child, the nurse stead- fastly maintains it was born dead. James A. Garrity, county attorney, said he is skeptical of her statement, believing the child was alive at birth. “I believe the child was born alive and that it was murdered,” Garrity said. “Iam skeptical of her state- ment.” Investigations launched by the coun- ty attorney will be continued in the hope of obtaining more information, with especial attention given Miss Iverson's statement that she went through the ordeal of childbirth un- assisted and alone in the physician’s office. Postmortem examination, scheduled to be held in Hawley Friday, may be followed by sending of the viscera to a University of Minnesota laboratory for ‘analysis. The coroner's inquest will be held in Hawley, possibly this afternoon, said Walter C. Wright, county coroner. Miss Iverson has named the alleged father of the child, Garrity said. She declared that she wrapped the body of the child in pers and placed it in the attic after climbing a ladder from @ washroom in the doctor’s of- fice, the county attorney said. WIND, HAIL DAMAGE CROPS, PROPERTY IN NORTHWEST STATES Hailstones Two Inches Deep in Southwest Minnesota; Wi- nona Rain 2.83 Inches St. Paul, July 6.—()—Wind, hail and heavy rain that flattened power and telephone poles, pounded growing crops in the ground and flooded low- lands caused damage totaling thou- sands of dollars in portions of three northwest states Thursday night and early Friday. Small buildings were unroofed, trees uprooted and transportation hampered by the storm that cut a swath of destruction across eastern South Dakota, southern Minnesota and southwestern Wisconsin. One man was seriously injured near La Croose, Wis., when he drove his automobile over a high voltage line that had fallen across the highway. The victim, Frank Baudler, 62, of Chaseburg, Wis. is confined in a La Crosse hospital . The damage inflicted by the ele- ments seemed to be most severe near Winona, Minn., in southeastern Min- nesota, where 2.83 rain was ac- companied by a 60-1 an hour wind. The storm blew power toppled barns, carried away boards, tore roofs off se’ factories and small buildings, shattered plate glass windows. Elopement, and metriage in Yuma, Ariz., culminated the month-old, acquaintanceship of Betty Flournoy, above, and Ralph Graves, film actor-direc- tor. The bride was a co-ed at the University of California at Los Angeles. ROOSEVELT STRONG IN NORTH DAKOTA DIGEST POLL SHOWS President Is 1.99 Per Cent More ~Popular Now Than. He Was in 1932 Sixty per cent of North Dakota's voters favor President Roosevelt and his new deal, according to final fig- ures on the Literary Digest poll an- nounced Friday by that magazine. Of 6,721 votes cast, 4,051 were in favor of the Roosevelt program and 2,670 were opposed to it. Of the total recorded in the poll, 3,822 persons voted for Roosevelt in 1932 and 76 per cent of these still are satisfied with their choice, 2,901 supporting the peeeent and 921 now being against The poll shows that 2,569 of those voting cast Hoover ballots in 1932 and of these 38 per cent now favor the new deal, the vote being 973 for and 1596 against it. On a percentage basis, the president gained more than he lost but numerically it was almost a tie, the net gain for President Roosevelt being two votes. Among those who voted for other candidates in 1932, the president re- ceived a scant majority, the vote be- ing 78 for and 76 against, while among those who did not vote in 1932 the margin was somewhat larger, the figures being 99 to 77. Stronger in 29 States The Digest has compiled a table showing gains and losses by states, listing North Dakota among the 29 which like the president better now than ever before. His popularity ein tn thls stato. te. rated. at 1.98) per| cent Of our neighboring states Minne- sota shows a gain of 6.57 per cent and Montana 8.32 per cent, but South Da- kota is found in the loss column, the President being 5.83 per cent weaker there now than he was in 1932, Taking the switch in votes for the 48 states as s whole, however, the Digest rates Roosevelt as 5.39 per cent stronger now than he was in 1932, Throughout the nation, three out of 5 favor the Roosevelt policies, Ver- mont alone being recorded against them with 3,459 voting “no” and 2,992 voting “yes.” Other states in which the margin is close, however, are New Hampshire, 4,534 to 4,343; and South Dakota, 4,837 to 4,784. tion velt cent of In the cent of 8623 per cent cent wyers, 1 per of the educators. ‘The influence of the educators may be reflected in the fact that : 4 i H sill Tax on Rye and Flax) sn JON MOVEMENT AT SYMPATHY MEETING Labor Leader Scores Governor for Calling Guardsmen; Unnecessary, He Says WATERFRONT NOWPEACEFUL Two Killed, Scores Gassed and Beaten Thursday When Police Open Fire San Francisco, July 6.—(?)—John O'Connell, president of the Central Labor Council here, announced Fri- day that representatives of 120 unions, with a membership of 45,000 per- sons, will meet Friday to discuss the Possibility of a general strike in srm- Pathy with the maritime unions. O'Connell made the announcement as President Roosevelt's labor disputes board made another effort to get the marine unions to submit their dispute with employers to arbitration, and the national guard officially assumed con- trol of the strike-torn San Francisco waterfront. “Governor Frank Merriam did a rotten thing when he called out the uational guard,” O'Connell declared. “It was unnecessary and uncalled for and the labor unions are up in arms. Guardsmen Patrol Area “Of course he is running for elec- tion but if he thinks that is going to Get him votes he is mistaken.” Grim-faced national guardsmen, wearing trench helmets and with bayonets fixed, officially took control cf the strike troubled San Francisco waterfront. There was a peaceful calm in con- trast with the riotous scenes of Thursday in which two men were shot, to death, 34 wounded and many beat- en, trampled and gassed in fierce clashes with police. At Oakland, however, Clayton Min- e1, 27, @ striker was shot through the abdomen and physicians said he prob- ebly would die. Striker ‘Shot in’ Scuffie Chester L. Hibbard, of Alameda steamship company employe, said he was attacked by four men as he was about to board a train for San Fran- cisco. In the struggle, = weapon which he carried because of threats went off and struck Miner. Headquarters of the national guard were established in the city’s famed ferry building here, located at the oot of Market Street midway in the ong lines of piers stretching in a semi-circle along the waterfront. In the headquarters were installed radio and telephone communication so the 1,500 guardsmen on duty could be Cispatched immediately to any spot in erea should rioting occur. Trucks mounted with machine guns tumbled along the five and one-half mile waterfront. Only a few strikers were observed along the waterfront. Threats of a genera! strike were heard here and at Portland, Ore., fol- lowing disorders at both cities. The tense situation was re-echoed on the Atlantic coast. Joseph P. Ryan, pres- ident of the International Longshore- men’s association, said at New York that ® sympathetic strike of east coast workers was under considera- tion. “We are not going to retreat from the waterfront,” declared Ralph Mal- Jen of the International Longshore- men's association public committee. “We are going ahead and expect to obtain plenty of help from all other unions toward a general strike.” 5 Police Bullets Kill Two loward Sperry, 49, a striking long- shoreman, and George Couneturakis, about 45, identified as a member of headq Steuart and Market streets.
