JACK CAMPBELL. (A. P. Wirephoto.) STRIKE PROPOSED AGAINST DOLE CUT | | By the Associated Press. LONDON, February 25.—A proposal for a one-day general strike in protest against the government’s dole restric- tions was injected into England’s trou- bled relief situation today. The strike was urged on 100,000 per- sons who gachered in various parts of the kingdom yesterday to vent their disapproval of regulations which re- duce payments to the unemployed head of a family if any of his dependents are wage earners. The largest meeting, at Aberkenfig, Glamorganshire, attended by 60,000, adopted a resolution approving the strike proposal. Communists, attempting to meet in the City Hall square in Hull, clashed with the police and were dispersed. Meanwhile, reports persisted, despite denials of government leaders, that re- organization of the cabinet is immi- nent. The Sunday Pictorial asserted it would be “no surprise” if Sir John Simon, the foreign secretary; Sir John Gilmour, home secretary; Walter Runciman, president of the Board of Trade, and Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister, colonial secretary, were admitted to the House of Lords to create cabinet vacancies to be filled by new blood.

URBANA, Il (#)—Alfalfa, “queen” of forage crops, has reached new heights of popularity because of its 1934 performance. The drought of last Summer, which kept the total crop production of Illi- nois down to the lowest figure in 30 years, seemed to act as a tonic for alfalfa. L. B. Miller, associate in soil ex- periment flelds at the college of ag- riculture, University of Illinois, said the alfalfa crop was practically nor- mal, with some fields yielding more decades. Estimates placed more than 375.000 acres of alfalfa in the State last year, and on many farms it proved a life- saver for dairy herds. e Reno Redeemed.

MCKINNEY, Tex., February 25.— Raymond Hamilton, elusive desperado, who narrowly escaped death in a police ambush near here last nignt, was re- ported fleeing West today with three abducted farm boys after spending part of the night at a farm house 3 miles west of Celina. The three captives were said by of- ficers to be J. C. Loftice, 16; Buster Mayes and J. C. Harlow. Hamlilton's companion in Sunday’s ‘gunfight, and still with him today, was not definitely identified, but police said they thought he was a West Dallas hoodlum. Reported Wounded. Hamilton was reported wounded in the jaw from the barrage laid down by ambushing officers. Search through the night for the killer who fled the Texas prison death house last Summer and a month ago escaped from another trap in Dallas was unavailing. This morning officers learned that after abandoning the bullet-riddled car near Weston, Ham- ilton and his companion had held up Loftice and driven away in his road- ster to the farm of Bill Mayes, 3 miles west of Celina, a town 18 miles north- west of McKinney, Armed With Automatics. | At dawn they left, taking with them | Mayes, son of the farmer; Harlow and | Loftice.
