Stifling heat encompassed Nebraska and most of Iowa Sunday, bringing death to one person in Omaha and prostrating another. The heat apparently centered over Towa and Nebraska, although Kansas City sweltered under a top reading of 108. The all-time heat record for Iowa was endangered at Red Oak where the mercury bubbled up to 112 de- grees, one degree below the record set 33 years ago. Bismarck’s temperature Sunday reached its maximum at 99, one degree less than the highest mark registered in the ‘state, at Max.

Salis- bury, new commissioner, took over the reigns, First to feel the bite was W. J. Flannigan, state maintenance engi- neer, state representative and staunch supporter of ousted Governor William Langer. Within a few moments after Salis- bury took office, Flannigan was re- placed by T. G. Plomasen of Bis- marck, former maintenance engineer of the department from April, 1923, to March, 1933. Sweeping an executive eye about his department, Plomasen removed State Senator D, H. Hamilton from his posi- tion as superintendent of equipment. Others who were “fired” included Roy Frazier of Williston, removed as maintenance superintendent, H. E. Paul of Bismarck, also maintenance superintendent, and P, H.

Vogel has resisted all attempts to remove him as highway commissioner until he was “removed legally by order Great Northern Is Diamondball Champ NEW STRATEGY SEEN ON SEAWAY PROJECT; Emphasis Will Be Placed on Wa- terpower Development, Not Commerce Washington, Aug. 6.—(#)—Water- Power and not ships is expected to be stressed in the administration's ef- forts to get the St. Lawrence treaty ratified by the next senate. Those who followed the unsuccess- ful strategy of President Roosevelt's senate forces in the treaty fight last session foresee this shift in empha- sis. There are two reasons, they say: The argument that sank the Can- adian-American treaty last session revolved largely around shipping. Opponents said the northern inter- national seaway that would permit vessels to travel from the heart of the continent to the St. Lawrence and thence to the open ocean would si- Phon American commerce from the Atlantic and Gulf ports. The plea for ratification on the ground that, in addition to the sea- way the project would mean more and cheaper power for the public trans. cends, in the opinion of pro-treaty men, the regional opposition that previously defeated ratification. It fits in with one of Mr. Roosevelt's oldest and most-frequently used Pleas to the public. The president served warning, when the senate tossed out the treaty by a 42 to 46 vote, that he would press for approval next session. Last week, speaking on the site of one of the great power projects of the nation, the Columbia river locale, he said flatly: “The St. Lawrence is going to be started.” Mr. Roosevelt is expected to seek many of the added votes needed for & two-thirds majority from the ranks of his own party. Of the 42 “nays” 22 were Democratic.

Monday, Mr. Roosevelt rode hi: special train to Glasgow, Mont., where he motors to inspect another dam— Fort Peck—on the Upper Missouri. The project will harness this stream against floods and provide eventually Power and navigation for the region. At Devils Lake Tuesday Fort Peck will be his last stop be- fore coming to North Dakota to make his inspection of the Missouri river diversion site at and around Devils Lake. Heat-stricken grain, burned by a blazing sun, will give the president a first-hand picture of one side of the drouth when he arrives at Devils Lake Tuesday. Shorelines of Devils lake, which have been steadily receding since 1883, will give him another side ot the drouth in connection with his inspection of portions of the Missouri river diversion project. ‘The president will meet little sur cease from the heat which has give.

Corn crops, burned irreparably by the searing heat, will be a part of the picture presented to the presi- dent, as the need for water in the state is explained to him in detail. Representatives from South Da- kota will combine with North Dakota Official delegates in presenting the drouth situation to the president's aides.
