Baker directed his criticism at the "half dozen countries” because "They have trown over the liberty of individuals and chosen to follow the path of dictatorship. “There have grown up in the world strange philosophies. Baker said. “They are capturing the fancy of nations and people. There is hardly a nation not fearful now of a renewal of the laat catastrophe. Baker said the legion “must lead > America in some exalted purpose.” •M can think of nothing more useful to generation® that follow, he said, "than a dedication of your lives to a doctrine of liberty and repudiation of the doctrine of force.; (CONTINUED ON PAGE FIVE)

DROUGHT PLAN IS URGEDDV I ■ THE PRESIDENT 1 Crop Insurance Program Is Also Urged By Pres. Roosevelt ; Washington. Sept. 21. —(UP> Ad-’ • ministration plans to put into operation “at the earliest possible ’ moment" a long-time drought and land-use program were revealed today by President Roosevelt. He appointed two committees, ■ headed by Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace and rural electrification administrator Morris IL. Cooke, to survey the drought ’ regions and prepare recommendations for legislation. Wallace was authorized to pre pare an "all-riwk crop insurance program" and recommend legislation to embody its conclusions. Cooke was instructed to "leave no stone unturned" in preparing a "long-term program for the etti- > cient utilization of the resources of the great plains area.” Mr. Roosevelt, iu a letter to Wallace. suggested the crop insurance committee "work out permanent ■ measures guarding farmers and ’ consumers’’ against price collapses resulting from surpluses and crop failures due to drought. In accordance with the president’s suggestio nthat “it may be found w ise for the first year to ■ limit the application of the plan to one or two major crops.” it was indicated the crop insurance committee may limit its initial study to corji and wheat. The president suggested that a plan whereby farmers would put past of their crops in good grow- . ing years into pools from which they would draw in the leaner years would act to prevent destruction of prices in good years and provide insurance against crop ! failures in other years. ■ Mr. Roosevelt said he was “esI pecially interested” in a study now ■ being made by the department of i agriculture ot a plan “for the payI ment of premiums and insurance . in commodities.” The department . has suggested that premiums rang(CONTINUED ON PAGE FIVE) REBEKAHS HOLD DISTRICT MEET Semi-Annual District Meeting Is Held Here , Today J Approximately 75 members ot the ■ Rebekah lodges.

Government Position Is Reported In Gravest Danger As Rebels Keep Up Sustained Drive. ADMIT ADVANCES By United Press Today's developmeiNs in the Spanish civil war: Gibraltai —War takes turn in rebel’s favor; government must recoup to restore balance. With Rebels, Maqueda Front — Rebels at outskirts of Santa OlalJa, former loyalist headquarters, driving ahead at five miles a day with 48 miles to go to Madrid. Madrid — Government calls all militiamen to duty, including those without arms; more men rushed to Maqueda front; rebel advances admitted; Santa Olalla. now no man’s land. Toledo—Rebels in Alcazar hold 1 fast; meet every loyalist thrust with burst of fire. Madrid Jury finds Rafael Salazar Alonzo, former interior minister. guilty of participating in revolt; judges consider whether to impose death sentence. Favors Rebels By Michael McEwen (Copyright 1936 by United Press) Gibraltar. Sept. 21— <U.R> —The Spanish civil war has taken a strong turn in favor of the rebels and the government position is one ot grave danger. Dispatches from all fronts, from both sides, show that the governi ment must alter the situation radically to restore a balance. Madrid has issued an urgent call for all militiamen, even those who are unarmed, to report to barracks ait once. The rebels are driving toward Madrid in the Santa Olalla area, at the rate of five miles a day. The government has abandoned its field headquarters at Santa, Olalla and the town is now no man's land. The rebel® at the Toledo Alcazar are defying every attack. In the Guadaarame mountains the rebels are strengthening their positions for attack. At Oviedo and Huesca. where the loyalists are nominally the attackers, actually they are doing most of their fighting defensively. Bilbao, their great port on tho north coast, seems doomed. A rebel broadcast from Seville claimed the capture of Santa Olalla. That report was shown by United Press dispatches to have been premature, at the time it was sent. But there was no reason to believe that the rebel® could not take it when they wanted—perhaps at dawn today. The loyalists admitted that they had abandoned it. The loyalist attack on the Alcazaj continued —artillery fire, snipers, dynamiting with small bombs, (CONTINUED ON PAGE FIVE) —OLEAGUE SEATS ETHIOPIANS Delegates Are Seated By Council Despite Italy Protest Geneva. Sept. 21 —(UP) — Thd Ethiopian delegate® to the league of nation® resumed their places over the protest of'ltaly when the assembly reconvened this afternoon and will be allowed to participate in the league’® conferences until a decision is taken regarding their credentials. The assembly, fearing to create a precedent which might work against: other nations, delayed its anticipated decision to eject the EthYTSpians today. Emperor Haile Selassie flew here from London to direct the fight for Ethiopia’s seat which the Italians contend is forefeited as a result of Italy’s conquest. The assembly’s dodging of tha Ethiopian issue was attributed to the fear of many powers who feel their terriories may he overrun in time of war and do not want a precedent created which would justify the league in ejecting them.
