- FURTHER PICK-UP SHOWN FOR U. 3. Commerce Department Re- views llls and Improve- ments of World. By the Associated Press. The Government checked over world economic ills today, diagnosed spotted improvement and reported the United States had demonstrated & “basis” for further recovery. Although many problems still pressed for solution, the Commerce Department, in its world economic review of 1934, said “economic con- ditions in the United States improved further.” National income was reported up over 1934 by between 10 to 15 per cent and the increase said to be “diffused over a large number of income recip- fents.” The department added: “An outstanding phenomenon of the year was the increase in the in- come of the agricultural population, notwithstanding one of the most se- vere droughts in our history.” Carried Over Problems. Chief problems carried over into 1935, despite a “better balance,” were listed as: Continued large volume of unemployment, national debt in- creases by large relief outlays, price disparities, low construction activity and restricted capital goods business. The review said unemployment in the United States probably was at no time less than 9,500,000 in 1934, but some 4,000,000 were reabsorbed from the 1933 low point to the end of 1934. High spots of economic conditions ir the rest of the world: The United Kingdom: “The gen- eral expansion which had marked the previous year continued during 1934 at an accelerated rate * * * but the condition of industries dependent pri- marily on the export trade was still far from satisfactory.” France: Hopes for “an improve- ment in French business conditions during 1934, which were entertained | by many at the beginning of the year, were not fulfilled and instead there was a steady decline in activity | that continued without interruption throughout the entire period.” Germany: Agricultural develop- ments were “relatively unfavorable”; industry became more dependent on the domestic market; foreign trade | was & “most discouraging” aspect; un- employment was lower. Progress in Russia. Russia: “As measured by Soviet standards, it seems reasonable to state that progress in all flelds of activity continued through 1934, and that a record of accomplishment was set up that considerably relieved pressure that has been continuous since 1928." Italy: “The extreme contrast be- | tween the improvement in the domes- tic market conditions and the a]armmg contraction of the export trade was the outstanding feature of the Italian economic position in 1934.” Canada: “The economic situation | continued to improve during the year, | less sensationally, but on a broader front than in the early stages of | the revival in 1933.” South America: Argentine recov- | ery has been “accelerated since the latter part of 1933 by the higher world prices for farm products”; dur- ing 1934 Brazil continued to progress | toward economic rehabilitation”; con- ditions in Cuba were *“considerably improved”; in Mexico industry op- erated at high level in first nine | months, but receded somewhat there- after. Japan: “The unparalleled expan- sion that has taken place in Japan's industry and commerce since 1931 and the continued penetration of Jap- anese products into practically all markets has attracted world-wide at- | tention.” PROVOKED BY RAIN Indians Accept Downpour After| Snake Dance as Natural Sequence. By the Associated Press. WALPI, Ariz., August 26.—Hopi In- dians calmly professed to see nothing unusual today in the fact that heavy showers drenched Walpi a few min- utes after the strange snake dance— climax of the ancient Hopi ceremontal prayer for rain—was concluded. “After all,” they reminded curious whites, “legend has it that not once since the rites were first performed, more than a thousand years ago, have the gods failed to answer our prayer for rain.” ‘The snake dance, performed yester- day by the snake and antelope clans in the plaza here before hundreds of Indian and white spectators, was the final event of the annual nineday ceremony. Snakes, gathered from the desert, were carried between the teeth of the snake priests during the dance. ) SEVENTH ALASKAN GIRL ADOPTED BY MRS. CALL Native of Washington, D.

Foreign Service School Dean To Continue Teaching. Joined Faculty 15 Years Ago. Notz as Successor to Dr. Widely Known Authority. An appointment as full-time dean of the School of Foreign Service of Georgetown University came to Dr. Thomas H. Healy y on his 41st birthday anniversary. One of the youngest men ever to hold such office at Georgetown, his assignment by President Arthur A. O'Leary, S. J., was a reward for 15 years of efficient serv- ice as professor, secretary and assist- ant dean of the school. The vacancy in the deanship oc- curred last June with the death of Dr. William F. Notz, nationally known economist. His successor, a man of many interests, is one of the best known American professors and au- thorities on international relations. Owing to the absence of Dr. Ed- mund A. Walsh, S. J., regent of the school, who was giving a course ol! lectures before the Academy of In- ternational Law at The Hague, Presi- dent O'Leary postponed naming a new foreign service dean until he returned. Dr. Walsh arrived in the city a few days ago. In addition to his new duties, Dr. Healy will continue as pro- fessor of foreign relations of the United States and associate professor | with Dr. James Brown Scott in the courses in international law. Graduate of Georgetown, Dr. Walsh said: “His appointment | was made with the complete unanimity and congratulations of the president and the other members of the board of directors in recognition of Dr. Healy's long services, his loyalty and | the efficient administration of his previous duties” A native of Washington, Dr. Healy is educationally a Georgetown prod- uct. He was graduated, magna cum { laude, from the college in 1914 and from the Law School with honors. He is a member of the bar of the United | States Supreme Court and of the Dis- trict courts. He later took & post- graduate law course at Georgetown, ‘nnd again, in 1926, he obtained the degree of doctor of philosophy in | international relations. Still intent on further improvement in his chosen field of work, he pursued studies at | the Academy of International Law and on two occasions since returned to the famous institution at The Hague as a guest professor. Joined School in 1920. Dr. Healy served in France as a lieutenant of artillery during the ‘World ‘War, resigning a commission in the Army to join the Georgetown ‘ faculty a few months after the For- eign Service School was founded in 1920. For the past 15 years Dr. Healy | has devoted his entire time to inter- | | national questions, political, legal, | economic and financial, in which fields he has gained national and interna- tional recognition. He has received | decorations from a number of foreign | governments for his services in thew cause of international education and foreign relations. | The American Legion elected Dr, !

FIERY MISSISSIPPI RACE NEARS END Bilbo Dictatorship Effort Is Charged in Governorship Run-Off. By the Associated Press. JACKSON, Miss,, August 26.—One of the stormiest gubernatorial run-off primaries in this State’s history drew to a close today as voters prepared to baliot tomorrow in an election in which President Roosevelt, Louisiana’s Huey Long and Mississippi's Theo G. Bilbo were issues. The fiery Senator Bilbo, who stumped the Sate for Hugh White, one of the candidates, charged that Senator Long was supporting Paul Johnson, the other, secretly in an at- tempt to extend his Louisiana dicta- torship to Mississippl. Johnson heatedly countered that Bilbo, not Long, was attempting to become dictator, and asserted he was not being supported by Long. Bilbo said the battle marked the opening gun in President Roosevelt's campaign for re-election, because of the activity of Long, Roosevelt's avowed enemy. Nomination in the Democratic sec- ond primary tomorrow is equivalent to election in MtuluippL Uu.s.
