DUE TO HEAT WAVE Fatal Effect of 1936 Hot Spell Affects Different Cities Than 1934 Washington, July 25.—()—A 65 per cent increase in the number of deaths jin principal cities during the week ended July 18, compared with the same week a year ago, was attributed by the census bureau Saturday to in- tense heat that prevailed in many sections, Deaths in 86 large cities during the week ended July 18 totaled 12,183, the bureau reported, compared with 7,439 TWO FARMERS KILLED Crookston, Minn. July 25.—(#)— Haying accidents cost the lives*of two prominent farmers of the Gentilly vi- for the corresponding 1935 week. The |cinity, Joseph Pinsonnault, 51, was week in 1935 “was normal with re-|run over by a hayrack driven by a spect to temperature,” the bureau /runaway team. He was found lying in id the field by a neighbor. Joe Brooks, 67, was run over by a hayrake and died shortly afterward. ‘From the standpoint of mortality the 1936 heat wave was much more severe than in 1934,” it continued. The bureau found that the “fatal effect” of the present heat wave was concentrated in a somewhat different geographical area than that of 1934. The deaths, it was said, occurred largely in Cincinnati, Kansas City, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Omaha and other cities in the southern part of the midwest. Although these cities showed sharp increases in mortality for the week ended last July 18, the bureau report- ed even greater increases for north- | ern midwest cities such as Minneap- olis, Detroit, St. Paul, Milwaukee, and Duluth. The bureau said the western Great Lakes region, involving Minnesote, | Wisconsin and Michigan, “were dealt @ heavy loss in the present emerg- ency” with an increase of 238 per cent in mortality compared with the ‘corresponding week in 1935. The_ 12,183 deaths in 86 cities the | week “ended July 18 this year com- jpared with 8,851 in the same cities during the week of most intense heat in 1934, Mrs. William Nutz In Serious Condition Carson, N.
