He attempted no evasion about the gun. but tried to lay theslaying upon another negro hotel worker. “The gun’s under that porch there.” Moore said, pointing. “But I didn’t kill her. 1 didn't know nothin' about it.

SUGAR BEET IS ’ LEAST AFFECTED — i Near Normal Crop Os Sugar Beets Foreseen In Three States 9 Saginaw, Mich., Aug. 10. — TeleI | graphic reports from practically every sugar beet growing district I in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana in--9 dicate that the sugar beet crop lias | sustained less injury, as a result | of the drought, than any other j major farm crop being grown in I the three states, according to a | statement made today by A. A. s Schupp, executive secretary of the j Farmers and Manufacturers beet I sugar association. ' "It is gratifying. ' declared Mr. I 'Schupp, “to know that, while many I |of the major farm crops have sufI ' sered materially as a result of the I drought, our fieldmen are able to I report comparatively slight damI age to the sugar beet crop. If normal weather conditions prevail tor I the balance of the growing season we have every reason to expect that the yield per acre of sugar beets in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana will be about normal on fall plowed land and only slightly below normal on spring plowed land.” . When asked to explain why sug•ar beets apparently were able to I stand adverse weather conditions I better than the other major farm crops, Mr. Schupp said, "It is a well known fact that the sugar I beet is an exceptionally hardy > plant and that it develops an elab-1 orate root system, which goes! down into the soil to a depth of j from 4 to 7 feet, enabling it to obtain moisture from the lower ■ soil levels.” Referring to importance of the , sugar beet crop to the farmers of ; Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, Mr. Schupp stated, "For years sugar i I beets have been recognized as being one of the major cash crops in the three states and all authorities • are agreed that beets are especially adapted to the rotation system used on our eastern farms. Our 1 soil and climatic conditions are ali most ideal for sugar beet growing and official records show that sugar beets have, over a period of I years, (brought the farmers the largest net cash return per acre of any of the major crops grown in this area. I "With sugar beets having demonstrated their ability to withstand adverse weather conditions, especially long periods of drought, we bei lieve that the number of farmers (engaging in beet browing will ma- | terially increase every year. We : are making excellent progress in improving cultural practices andil with the farmers now receiving ! one-half of the net cash return ' from the sale of sugar, pulp, and molasses, we feel confident thJt , sugar beet growing will soon be-

eonie recognized as one of the major and most profitable opertaions conducted on Michigan, Ohio and Indiana farms.” —.— 12 Accidental Deaths In State Indianapolis.

"We know where the president stands on this momentous question,” he said. “We also know where the man chosen by the men who have organized themselves against everything decent stands. "We know what will happen to this legislation if Landon is elected.” Lewis assailed Landon as a "dummy for the financial interests of the country.” "Mr. Landon says academically I that workers have the right to o'rganize and that they have the right to send in an organizer,” said Lew-: is. "He forgot to say that when I the mine, mill, and smelter workers union sent an organizer into, Kansas the organizer was follow- [ ed by the national guard with all its paraphenalie of war. “It is a reasonable thing to exi pect that if he is elected and an organizer is sent into a branch of the Standard Oil company — that the organizer will be followed by the United States army. “Labor is opposed to the election of a man as president of the United States merely on the grounds that he will be a, loyal agent for the Dupont financial agents, the Standard Oil company, the U.

Modern furnaces heat your house in winter . . . cool it in summer. Refrigerators take just five minutes to make ice for long, tall, cooling drinks.

administration enactments. Welcoming a convocation of state leaders of labor's non-partis-an league which is supporting his re-election, Mr. Roosevelt called attention to supreme court outlawing of legislation intended to "put a stop to certain economic practices which did not promote the general welfare.” "Some of the laws which were enacted," he eaid. “were declared invalid by the supreme court. It is a notable fact that it was not the wage earners who cheered when those laws were declared invalid. “I greet you in the faith that future history will show, as pdst history has so repeatedly and so effectively shown, that a return to reactionary practices is ever short lived. Having tasted the benefits of liberation, men and women do not for long forego those benefits. “I have implicit faith that we shall find our way to progress
