MEAN MISSING HERE ABELIEVED LOCATED ‘Identified by Relative at Baltimore—Employe Cleared in Threat. The young man who turned up at *w- Frederick road police substation néar Baltimore yesterday was identi- fied by George M. Rivera, 69 Adams strest, as Robert L. Gittings, missing manager of a dry cleaning establish- ment at 1925 New York avenue, it was learned last night. Rivera said he is & brother-in-law of Gittings'. Police there said the two men left &6 noon to return to Washington, but neither one could be located at a tate hour. Gittings failed to return home from his place of business after an argu- ment Wednesday with a colored em- ploye, who, according to Gittings, said, “I'll get you tonight.” Baltimore police said Gittings told them he did not take a nearby moon- light excursion boat as he originally intended, but went to a bus terminal, bought a ticket for Philadelphia and left to try to find the colored man who had threatened him. He returned to Baltimore Friday evening, he said. ‘The 22-year-old youth's abandoned car with a note addressed to-his wife was found near the Potomac water front and Washington and Kensing- ton police immediately began a search. | " The colored employe who was sald} to have threatened Gittings was ab- | solved of all suspicion by local police | yesterday after questioning. The note to Gittings’ wife read: #Dear Kitt: I can't stand these hours any longer. I am through. I am going down on the moonlight. Take care of Sonny.

Official designation of these States i g5 portions of the drought relief area & was expected to follow soon. & In the present official drought area « of the Northwest 42,500 families will © receive Federal aid. Tugwell said “ that if conditions became more seri- > ous, 116,000 farm families, or 464,000 * individuals, would be dependent on tt.e Federal Government for aid by De- cember 1. The present estimated number who will need aid in the five-State area, Tugwell said, and the peak in the event drought conditions become more critical, by States are, respectively: South Dakota, 18,000 now; 35,000 farm families by December 1; North Dakota, 15,000 and 40.00C; Montana, 4.000 and 12,000; Wyoming. 1,500 and 4000; and Minnesota, 5000 and 25.000. The Federal official after traveling | some 500 miles through the drought area of Central North and South Da- kota, and through the Western Scuth Dakota range and bad Lands country, left late today for Belle Fourche on the Western State border. He planned to swing into Eastern Wyoming and Montana. Conference Is Held. He held a conference with Resettle- ment administrators for the :egion and from South Dakota and Wyoming before leaving Rapid City. The addition of the 11 States to the present official drought area places farmers of those States in 1he position of receiving feed loans, and gives com- munities an opportunity of cbtaining loans or grants for drilling wells as announced by Tugwell vesterday efter & conference at Pierre. A maximum of $900 was placed on | fecd loans to farmers at that time, | with a State average of $500. He also announced an immediate grant of $350.000 to put the relief pro- gram into effect in South Dakota and added that other States in the area would be aided similarly, with added grants as the need develops. RECORD HEAT RECORDED. 2 Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas Hit as Northern Area Gets Relief. CHICAGO, July 18 (£).—The north- ern half of the drought area cooled off tonight, but another blistering day was recorded in Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas, where temperatures soared above the 100 mark to estab- lish new high heat records. While temperatures slid to the 70's and low 80's in Minnesota, Michigan and Wisconsin, the mercury rose to | 113 in Tulsa, Okla., for a new record. Nevada was the hottest spot in Mis- souri, with an all-time record of 117 degrees. It was a searing 121 in Fredonia, Kans,, and sister cities of that State :roiled in temperatures almost as ot. With most of the victims reported in the Oklahoma-Missouri-Kansas ares, the death toll built up in 15 days of almost unprecedented heat reached 4,481, Scattered showers and the entrance of cool air tonight boomed Minnesota's corn crop prospects. Grain prices slumped with the mercury in response to the rains’ re- viving effect. Com went down 4 cents on the Board of Trade here after booming 30 cents in a month-long drought market. Wheat moved down in sympathy. Rains Surprise Forecaster. The rains came as a surprise to Weatherman J. R. Lloyd, who ex- plained: “Weather signs yesterday pointed “t0 a hot week end, but a low pres- sure area from the Dakotas moved in unexpectedly.” Showers were heaviest in the drought sector at Sault Ste. Marle, Mich,, with 94 of an inch. Other ~iry points cheered by moisture in- cluded: Charles City, Iowa, .24; Du- Shique, Iowa, .06; Duluth, Minn., .02; La Crosse, Wis, .16; Rapid City, S. Dak., .01. Not only was the hot spell broken THE SUNDAY Ex-Bank Head Under Arrest STAR, RACE DRIVERDIES, 3 HURT IN CRASH Wesley Johnson Killed, Rex Mays Seriously Injured at Boston. By the Associated Press. BOSTON, July 18.—Wesley Johnson of Lansdale, Pa., was killed and three other automobile race drivers seriously hurt today in a collision at the Read- ville track. . The injured were Rex May of Glen- dale, Calif, who was reported to be dying at the Forest Hills Hospital; Henry Angeloni of New Brunswick, N. J, and N. Vern Orendorf of Pater- son, N. J. Johnson died on th hospital. ‘The accident occurred at the half- way point of the 20-mile feature race. Mays and Orendorf were fighting for the lead and rounding a turn at what observers said was 100 miles an hour when their cars skidded and crashed into Johnson's machine. He was hurled out as the force of the collision sent his car flying through the air. Angeloni, driving just behind May and Orendorf, turned sharply to the right to avoid the pile-up, but he suf- fered Injuries when his machine crashed through the guard rail. Otcar Ridlon, a Boston driver, was slightly injured in an earlier race when he lost control of his machine and dashed through the railing. Mays, 23, and Crendorf, 35, are married. Officials of the A.

P. A. projects, Gov. Walter Welford of North Dakota voiced a need for more aid. In a letter to United States Senator Gerald P. Nye he suggested that the Federal Government free the farmer from his heavy burden of old debts. The Gov- ernor said 80 per cent of these were controlled by Uncle Sam in loans. In the corn belt, the picture was brightened by the rain. Corn growers in Iows, the heart of the belt, re- ported deterioration of the crop halted by cloudy skies. Government drought relief officials in Washington moved yesterday to Increase emergency employment in distressed areas of the Great Plains States and to conserve all forage available for live stock. W. P. A. Job Quotas Raised. Aubrey Williams, deputy adminis- trator, announced that the Works Progress Administration employment quotas in the Western drought areas | had been raised from 50,000 to 65,000 The increase brings the total of jobs to 25,000 in North Dakota, 25,000 in | South Dakota, 6,000 in Montana, 6,000 in Wyoming and 3,000 in Minnesota. At the same time reports were re- ceived here that approximately 22,000 farmers had been given W. P. A. em- ployment during the week in those five States. The Inter-departmental Drought Committee studied further revision of soil conservation compliance practices to embrace the entire Western area producing forage as nurse crops for soil-conserving crops. Officials said all Western farmers participating in the soil conservation program will be allowed to cut for hay any grain or other straw-producing crop grown as | & cover for legumes, That privilege previously was granted farmers in officially designated drought counties, without penalty to prospective Government awards for soil conservation practices. The order extending it to the entire region was expected to be signed the first of next week. Western Senators Irked. Two Western Senators, irked at what they called “dilatory tactics,” called upon national live stock and farm associations to urge railroads serving Western drought areas to re- duce freight rates on live stock feed at once. Senator Wheeler, Democrat, of Montana, returning from Europe, in- structed his office to make the sug- gestion to the National Live Stock Association, the Farmers Union, the National Grange and the American Farm Bureau Federation. Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat, of ‘Wyoming, asked stockmen to appeal directly to the railroads. As a guide to farmers’ intentions to plant, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics announced a forthcoming series of outlook statements for certain major farm products affected by the drought and other factors. Reports would be released on the poultry outlook on July 24, the bu- reau said; the dairy outlook on July 29, live stock on August 6 and wheat on August 14. Reports to Provide Facts. ‘The reports proposed to cover the current supply, demand and price sit- uation with a view to providing a background of facts for farmers as an aid to them in developing their future production and marketing pro- grams. With a broad program of water conservation getting under way in ‘Western drought States, Howard O. Hunter, assistant W. P. A. adminis- trator in charge of drought opera- tions, told farmers and live stock owners that his agency was without authority to drill wells on private property or for private use. The statement, Hunter said, was made in reply to scores of appeals on behalf of farmers in areas where an acute water shortage has developed. He added, however, that W. P. A, could meet the needs of drought areas through projects providing for im- proved public water supply, with res- ervoirs and other facilities on public property. In Minnesota, Michigan and Wis- consin, bug Lloyd said the “worst prob- ably was over” in North Dakota, ‘where human deaths were fewer and 5% losses higher. No immediate relief was in sight, the weatherman said, for South Dakota, Nebraska or Kansas, but temperatures were due to drop over most of the remaining North Central States. Showers Are Predicted. He forecast local thunderstorms to- night or tomorrow for Eastern and Southern Iowa, Northern Missouri, Iilinois, Indiana, Southern Michigan and Southeastern Missourl. There was no rain in sight for Oklahoma, but. cloudy weather was due over Mdhtana and Wyoming.

Revolt Of Nation’s Firm Conservatism Ex-King Alfonso Exile, Retains Hope and Spurs on Adherents at Home. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, July 18—The mount- ing tide of unrest in the Spanish Army which flared into open ravolt in Span- ish Morocco today gave fresh hope to the right wing of an early re- turn to power. Although only the most sanguine of the extreme Right regard a resto- ration of the exiled former King Al- fonso XIII as even remotely pos- sible, they are confident Spain is pre- dominately conservative and will re- sist, by force if necessary, the pendu- lum's widening arc Leftward. The former King, brooding in ex- ile in Italy, has not lost hope, how- ever, He has not renounced his claims to the throne and in frequent communi- cations to his adherents in Spain he encourages them to continue efforts toward restoration. Most of the Rightists look to the army to checkmate the announced objective of the Communists and revo- lutionary Socialists, to implant a pro- letarian dictatorship in Spain. Robles’ Belief Confirmed. The military rebellion in the Span- ish protectorate today tended to con- firm Rightest leader and former Min- ister of War Jose Maria Gil Roblés’ bellef that the army eventually would rise against the Left administration. He recently told the Associated Press | that the army would revolt unless the reign of terror he ascribed to the Communists and revolutionary Social- ists was halted by the government. He predicted at the time that this revolt “would not be long in material- izing” and that the impetus of Marx- ism in Spain would “come to an abrupt stop.” The reported arrest of Gen. Ramon Franco, chief of staff under Gil| Robles and frequently mentioned as the probable leader of a military up- rising, indicated the government placed some credence in reports to- Assures Right MEXICO BUSINESS TOHALT IN STRIKE Capital Merchants Decide to Utilize Weapon of :::;: ‘uprising was Rightist in char- Workers.

Although he made public declara- tion of his “unqualified loyalty” to the new Left government, he shortly afterward was relieved .of his com- mand and sent to a relatively unim- portant post in the Canary Islands. Gen.. Capaz, also reported held in connection with today’s rebellion, re- cently was arrested when his automo- bile, which he was driving in the north of Spain, was found to contain a machine gun and a number of rapid-fire pistols. He was released after he had “given his word as an officer” that he was “merely transferring the weapons to the Valladolid Barracks because he | thought there was a shortage of arms there.t Many of the Right have openly espoused the Fascist cause under the leadership ef Jose Antonio Primo de Rivera, son of the late dictator. ‘The Fascists, despite the imprison- ment of their leaders and most of their militant members, have been conducting & successful war of re- prisals against the Communists and are reported to be gaining rapidly in strength.

End of Movement Seen. ‘There was, meanwhile, considerable belief cautiously expressed in official quarters that tonight might bring an end to the movement that, in its 60 hours’ duration, had brought this city uncomfortakly close to food shortage, fear of epidemic and even possible fioods. President Lazaro Cardenas’ private secretary brought representatives of gether in his offices late this after- noon.

Revolts Reported Crushed. ‘The revolt, officials at the Spanish capital asserted, was crushed shortly after its inception, although conflict- ing reports later told of fresh in- surgence in the North African ter- ritory. !
