Forecasts were for préeipita- tion in Oklahoma and Northern Texas today. Sixteen Known Dead. Meanwhile the sections which felt the fury of last week’s blizzard, accompanied by zero temperatures, took stock of the loss in lives and damage to early crops and fruit. ‘The known death list reached 16 yes- terday, when the body of Boyd Edwards, 7-year-old Max, Nebr., schoolboy, Was| gy, recovered in a snow-filled canyon, mid- way between his farm home and ths school house which he left Thursday.

The body of Charles Beach, 50- year-old Wyoming herdsman, was found half a mile from his camp wagon. Hll‘ 4-year-old son and a dog were safe at the camp. Fruit Crops Damaged. Unofficial reports indicated wide- spread damage to fruit trees. Oats in Southwestern Oklahoma were frozen. Trai tion agencles, with the exception of bus lines in some sec- tions, were returning to normal sched- ules. Bryan Untledt, 13-year-old school boy, who survived a 36-hour ordeal in a snowdrift-trapped bus, recuperated in a hospital in Lamer, Colo., today.

Both still were breathing, but died soon after being rushed to a ranch house. Untiedt said three bodies were burled in snow in the rear of the bus. Two windows had been broken by the chil- dren in their fright and the flakes had been driven through to fill two-thirds of the interior.

TAMMANY SHIFTS 383 IN CLEAN-UP All Manhattan and Brooklyn Tenement Inspectors Are Transferred. By the Assoctated Press. NEW YCRK, March 30.—Tammany’s preinvestigaticn. nousecleaning today took in the City Tenement House De- partment, which underwent the most drastic shake-up in its history. William F.

Radical changes in two Iimportant city bureaus on the return of Mayor James J. Walker from California were generally forecast, the latest to come under the critical eye of the administra- tion being the department of markets, which inspect kosher meat. ‘The mayor was reported planning to turn the inspection of kosher meat over to the health department by executive order. Numerous graft complaints about th;g%ruent inspection have been re- ported. ‘The other bureau likely to feel the altering hand of the executive was the Board of Standards and Appeals. Charges Against Berry Filed. Meanwhile, with the mayor's return almost a week away, investigation ac- tivity centered around the building bureaus of the five boroughs. Meantime, William H. Allen, director of the Institute for Public Service, an- nounced that he had filed charges with Gov. Roosevelt against Controller Charles W. Berry, another Tammany officeholder. “Many of the major in- efficiencies charged against the mayor might have been prevented by the con- troller,” Mr. Allen said. George U. Harvey, borough president of Queens and an ally of Mayor Walker, although a Republican, stood embattled against any attempt by Tammany to touch his domain during its “house- cleaning” before the start of the legis- h&-lv,e investigation into New York City affairs. On the heels of the arrest on a bribery charge of Rollin C. Bastress, Queens Republican and former chief inspector for the department of buildings in Man- hattan, Harvey announced if Commis- sioner of Accounts James A.

BOWIE, Md., March 30.—The sound of the bugle at Bowle this afternoon launches the Eastern racing season, and the drum of hoofbeats again will be heard at more than a half dozen tracks along the Thanksgiving day. ‘The Prince Georges plant is opening a day earlier than originally planned, the card being run off for charity, in this instance, the Maryland unemploy- ment fund. The State is walving its dally tax of $6,000, the “take” in the pari- mutuels has been raised from 5 fo 8 per cent, and every other source of revenue is being diverted to the aid of the idle.

WORLD GRAIN PARLEY HOPELESSLY DIVIDED Wheat Surplus Problem Given to Committees as General Sessions at Rome End. By the Associated Press. ROME, March 30.—The world grain conference, which for four days has been trying to solve the problem of the international wheat surplus, ended its general gessions this afternoon and dis- solved into several committees which met to investigate special phases of the difficulties. Practically all of the delegates Who attended the conference received ap- pointments on the special committees, and it was said that these would con- tinue working until probably Wednes- day. Thus far the conference is hopelessly divided. It seems certain that further conferences will have to be held before anything like a solution can be achieved. The E\n’afieln countries along the Danube still maintain the necessity of a preferential tariff system, which would mean a virtual boycott non- European wheat. In remuméu , the great wheat-growing countries of the world have tened to revoke their most-favored nation treatles if the pref- erential tariffs are put into effect. All countries admit that there has been an overproduction of wheat, but each ersphatically declared that it will not reduce its own acreage. On the con- trary, some countries, particularly Rus- sia, announced that they would do eve! possible to increase produc- n. Engelbert Dollfuss, Austrian minister of agriculture, in a speech at this morn- ing's session, opposed reducing wheat production and advanced the that the surplus could be disposed through international agreement. e popilaats Steamers Collide in Fog.

President Hoover is shy two bottles of juicy Porto Rican sugar cane. The Government took it away from him.

It was easy to get two large of cane, but Agriculture they feared 1t carried tropical plant diseases. Lawrence Richey, secretary to the President, consulted with the inspectors, found them adamant, and finally told them, “Oh, all right; throw it overboard!” WHITE HOUSE BACKS FARM BOARD STAND = President Feels Body Is Able to Define Own Policies. Chairman Back at Desk. By the Associated Press. President Hoover feels the Farm Board is amply sble to define and de- fend its own policies and position. ‘The board’s decision to discontinue stabilization of wheat prices was one of the first matters brought to the Presi- dent’s attention upcn his return from his Caribbean trip. It was said at the White House that the Farm Board makes its own policies just as the Shipping Board and the Interstate Commerce Commission. The board, it was said, was given full power and responsibility by Congress. It has been the view of many high officials that ‘the stabilization work in- augurated more than a year ago by the Farm Board had in view the saving of a great many banks in the wheat* belt which would have failed if wheat prices continued to decline as rapidly as they started. d L Many of these banks held loans se- cured by wheat at prices ranging around those set by the Farm Board for buying the surplus. These banhs now have been able to clear these loans and re- adjust themselves to prices on the world wheat market. Chairman Stone of the Farm Board, coming back to his desk after a trip into Kansas and Oklahoma, said grain co-operatives generally had expressed approval of the board’s decision not to stabilize 1931 wheat. The chairman said they agreed the announcement had been made at the proper time to insure gradual readjust- ment among wheat growers who have indicated they will harvest 3 per cent less acreage this year. He interpreted farmers’ intentions to make smaller plantings as a sign of success of the 's campaign to re- duce production. 3 ROB KENTUCKY BANK Customer Frees Imprisoned Cashier After Bandits Take $2,000.
