F Street at 7th | Aberdeen, ON FOUR-DAY WEEK Payless Furlough Ordered| Until $13,000,000 Re- quest Is Granted. Until a $13,000,600 public works ap- plication for the manufacture of am- munition is granted, the War Depart- ment today issued orders placing its 23 establishments of the Ordnance De- partment, with their 6,806 civilian em- ployes, on a four-day week, effective | rext Saturday, the beginning of the new fiscal year. ‘This means that employes at the arsenals and munition depots will be given payless furloughs Friday and Sat- urday of each week until the order is suspended. All the ecivilian personnel will be on this two-day furlough except those who are given accrued leave with pay, which is now authorized to be taken in lieu of furlough without pay. 8,600 Others Affected. No indication was given at the War Department as to whether similar orders will be issued before Saturday 1especting the approximately 8,600 civilian employes in the quartermaster depots throughout the country. “This is a temporary measure,” the order said, “to hold all organizations together as much as possible with funds now available, perding the determina- tion of what public works funds will be made available to ordnance depart- ments.” ! Failure to obtain these public works funds for ammunition, it was said, probably would result in more exten- sive furloughs at arsenals and perhaps dismissal of a great many employes at | some of the larger arsenals. On the other hand, officials said, granting oi the $13,000,000 application might mean full-time operation at all the arsenals during a greater part of the year. Civilians Excepted. ‘While the four-day week will mml| at ordnance establishoments, this pro- cedure of furlough will not apply to civilian employes at the nine corps area headquarters and at Army The personnel at these places, it was said_ofri will be reduced by ap- proximately 25 per cent. as necessitateu by the s!

SKYLINE DRIVE WON'T BE OPEN THIS SEASON Construction Details Are Still in| Progres® and Transfer of Land Delayed. Secretary of Interior Ickes today ex- pressed regret tfat the Skyline Drive, in | the proposed Shenandoah National | Park, Va. could not be opened to the public this season. The new highway, on which certain construction details are still in progress, under supervision of the Bureau of Public Roads, cannot be opened to traffic until the park is established and gov- ernmental administration and protec- | tive force installed, the Secretary said. It had been hoped that the park would be established before this, but litigation has arisen in connection with the transfer of certain lands to the Federal Government for park purposes. Under the act of Congress providing for its creation, the park cannot be established until all the lands within the boundaries specified have been ac- quired and transferred to the United States by the State of Virginia. Meanwhile, the new highway. built as_drought relicf measure during the | past two vears, is closed by locked gates ' and is accessible only to engineers en- gaged on the road work, State author- | ities engaged in acquiring the lands, and officials of the two emergency conserva- tion camps now being operated in the proposed park area. | | CHINCH BUGS THREATEN ! CROPS IN FIVE STATES ! Prepare War on Insects in Towa, | Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas. | By the Associated Press. DES MOINES, Iowa, June 29.—In-; festation of chinch bugs in Southern { Iowa and adjacent sections of Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas was termed “very serious” yesterday by Dr. C. J. Drcke, State entomologist, as he marshaled forces to halt its spread. Comparing it to the ravages of grass- hoppers in Western Iowa in 1931 and 1932, Dr. Drake declared the chinch bug “is worse than the grasshopper and much harder to control.” 1t is a black bug about one-eighth of an inch long with white markings on the wings and reddish legs. It destroys plants by fastening itself to leaves and stalk and sucking the sap. Dr. Drake issued a warning the bugs must be controlled before reaching cornfields, since no practical control means is available once they begin working on corn. Reports from points in Southern Iowa and Grundy County, Ill., indi- cated the insects are in full migration. Farmers near Morris, 11, told of seeing them moving in masses from field to field. sometimes covering highways in strips 100 feet wide. Has 400,000 Rosebushes.

MUSKOGEE, Okla., June 29.—Jap| Ingram, 35-year-old father, who says he “don’t know whether I'm sorry or not,” was in jail here today, accused of executing his two tiny children. Frightened relatives and neighbors told officers that Ingram, estranged from his wife, came to a little cotton farm near Coweta at the dinner hour yesterday, wounded two of his wife's relatives and then, patting his little son and daughter on the head, led them to the farm heouse wall and shot | them down.

Sam Sewell, Ingram's father-in-law, and John Voss, Sewell's stepson, who were shot on Ingram's arrival at the farm, were in a Muskogee hospital today.
