Problems Not Solved The afgument to be used is that the government has poured millions of dollars into North Dakota but has not solved its problems, as evidenced by recurring demands for feed and loans. Members of the water’ board expressed the view that ac- ceptance by the ‘government of its leadership will be the beginning of a which, eventually, will make ‘program. further seed and feed loans unneces- sary in the areas where the demand for them has been most insistent. Knapp reported that W. G. Sloan, representative of the Bureau of Rec- lamation, had visited the Trenton- Buford project last Sunday and had three | seemed impressed by its possibilities. He expects from Sloan a favorable report on a proposal by the water board to join with the Reclamation Bureau in a survey of the proposal. Details of the proposal were to be worked out in conferences between Gov. William Langer, who initiated the scheme following his conference with county commissioners from the drouth area here last week, and state peecoerniasives of the federal agen- cies.

Poise Navy Aircraft to Comb Comb 36,000 Square Miles in Hunt for Lost Aviatrix Honolulu, July 13.—(#)—The great- est war air force ever assembled for & peace-time mission—63 planes— was poised Tuesday ready to skim along the mid-Pacific equator in the navy’s last search for Amelia Earhart, missing 11 days. If weather conditions are favorable the planes will zoom from the air- craft carrier Lexington to survey an area of 36,000 square miles centering about bleak Howland island. It was Howland island, a dot of land rising but two feet above the water, that the aviatrix and her navigator, Frederick J. Noonan, aimed for when they took off from Lae, New Guinea —a flight of 2,570 miles. The last radio message on July 2 said they were within 100 miles of their goal, that they couldn’t see land and that their fuel supply was almost exhausted. An area of 60 miles wide and 600 miles long extending north and south from Howland was mapped for the first day’s survey in the hitherto fruitless search.

Tokyo, July 13.—(#)—The Japanea cabinet was reported Tuesday to haw decided on military measures to solve the North China crisis unless the Chi- fell government accepts all Japan’s “We are making fullest prepara- tions for the emergency,” one member of the cabinet said. The decision to carry out the gov- ernment’s original plan to end the tense situation was said to have been caused by the increasingly grave de- velopments in the Peiping area.
