FALLREFALA. FORESEENY RO Farm Strikes Will Be Un- necessary, Western Leader Says. By the Associated Press DES MOINES, Iowa, March 8— Milo Reno, president of the Farmers’ Holiday Association, yesterday said the “complete and inevitable” failure of the A. A. A. program would forestall possibility of another farm strike, sim- ilar to the one which spread into sev- eral Midwestern States in 1933. ‘The Government’s plan of crop re- duction to raise prices was termed an “artificiality” and a “devilish” pro- cedure by the farm leader. “When the unthinkable, un-Amer- fcan A. A. A program fails, as it in- evitably will, there will be no necessity for the distressed farmer to strike,” Reno said. “The farmer does not want to starve people, and we (the Farmers' Holi- ' day Association) do not contemplate a strike. By the time the vicious A. A. A. program fails we will have full sup- port of every class of people, except the capitalist.” Condemning the administration’s plan of raising prices by the control method, Reno charged that “thousands of people are starving, yet they (the A A. A) want to reduce production.” “What we need is all of our people liberally fed. Why, we haven't been | able to supply every one with the ne- | cessary amount of food, but still they talk over-produetion,” Reno said. “HOT” OIL INJUNCTION FIRST ASKED IN TEXAS| 8ix Corporations Sued Under New Connally Law to Prevent | Shipments.

Pemberton escorted one shipment of toads from Puerto Rico to Hawali in 13 day “When trans-Pacific air travel is made possible for bugs,” Pemberton said, “importation will not be any trouble at all.” LS et Lottery Profits Lag.

FAR WEST CROP PROSPECTS 600D Fruit and Vegetable Sur- plus, However, May Be Re- stricted by A. A. A. By the Assoclated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, March 8— Ranchers of the far West sat in their swivel chairs (yes, sir, in offices, many of ’em) today and contemplated the | best crop prospects in some years. Prospects on these wide open ranges, broad grain fields, orchards, henneries, dairies and vegetable farms, take their | tint from the turn of the weather— and the weather has been good this ‘Winter. There has been plenty of rain in most areas and lots of snow in the mountains for Summer irrigation water, Southern California citrus growers generally expect the orange and lemon crops to be the largest in the indus- try’s history. Pastures in this State are in fine condition. Reports from Arizona, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and| Nevada have been good lately. Acreage of barley and wheat has| gone up in California. Hay is in good condition. Asparagus, a $6,400,000 crop last year, has a larger production this year, but the surplus may be kept off the market through A. A. A. con- trol. This procedure will likely affect the marketing of peaches, prunes, rice and other crops, for which it is too early to estimate the yleld.. The Southern California avocado crop is the biggest in history. Winter wheat is reported to be in good condition in the Pacific North- west. Cattle prices lately have averaged well over 30 per cent higher than a year ago, and marketings in leading Pacific slope cities have been heavier. Sheep and lambs are reported to be in excellent condition in California and Arizona, but only fair to poor in most other Western States. .

It is hoped that the Festival Association, in con- Junction with the Virginia Federation of Music Clubs and Virginia State Music Teachers’ Association, will ef- fect some plans by which the annual festival can be continued.” Mr. Powell expressed belief that there is no “possibility of anything on a State-wide basis this Spring* There does not remain sufficient time in which to organize such an elaborate musical program, even if the money were obtained today, he believes. Buried Beside His Arms. RICHMOND, March 8—The Vir- ginia State Choral Festival, a musical event which has been participated in by hundreds of Old Dominion musi- cians each Spring for the past three years, will not be held again this Spring, it was stated yesterday. Vernon Kemp of Charlottesville, secretary of the State Choral Festival, and John Powell, co-sponsor with Mrs. John Buchanan of the festival idea, both confirmed reports that financial difficulties will block a renewal of the event in 1935. | Guarantors have taken a large per- | centage of loss on the previous festi- | vals, held in *Richmond and Char- lottesville, and thus far no group has been found willing to underwrite the expenses of a songfest this Spring. “Officers of the State Festival Asso- ciation have not made any definite | plans as to the future of this event,” | Mr. Kemp said on a visit to Rich- | mond. “Failure to hold the festival in Joe Shirt, who died recently in Derbyshire, England, has been buried beside his arms, which were severed in a machine accident and interred in the Wesleyan Cemetery 53 years ago, Harness—Saddlery—Trunks— Luggage—Repairing of All Leather Goods G.W.King, Jr.,511 11thSt.N.W. ugRY-ME” ( AUTOCRATe MOTOR OIL Qenmsylyamial Fimeit- BAYERSON OIL_WORKS coLumsia 5228 THAT WILL STARTLE THE NATION / ® CROSBY SHOES SUITS—26 Left. $27.50 Values Blue and Brown Chalk Stripes.

PARIS, March 8—Philibert Besson, “the aerodynamic dep- uty,” was unseated by the Cham- ber of Deputies yesterday and henceforth will have to resort to other means than parliamentary immunity to keep out of jail. ‘The Chamber vote unseating the picturesque deputy was 338 to 28 in a stormy session which nearly precipitated a cabinet crisis. Police were waiting at the door to arrest Besson, over whose head hang prison sentences totalling 10 months. The police were temporarily powerless, however, as the deputies surrounding Bes- son said the vote was not com- plete and arrest impossible. In 1932 a lawyer accused Bes- son of stealing a receipt. For the next two years Besson outrode the gendarmes and process servers. JTIEFF ULARS AND A FEW SHORTS. 13 $22.50 Topcoat. Tan Tweed slo 75 $27.50 Topcoat. Tan, Small Check Velour Raglan.
