PRAY FOR RAIN IN KANSAS CITY TO END DROUGHT 800 Attend Service in Piea for Relief: Mercury Hits 108. R.t Umit'4 Prrnt KANSAS CITY. Mo.. July 13. Tb* organ thundered, a shirtminister mounted to the puiptt. and 899 persons swung into the business of the night—praying lor rain. Thus Kansas City's first mass invocation of divine aid in the drought and twenty-two days of j blistanng heat began last night at | the end of a dav which had a high temperature of 108 degrees. Clouds came today but they brought no rain. It was the Rev. Alvin O. Hause's refutation of the adage that everybody talks about the weather but ! nobody does anything about it. He , announced earlier this week that something could be done and that was prayer. His midweek service at the Bales Baptist church last night was devoted to the subject. Official weather forecast was “continued warm.” Two persons | died from the heat here yesterday. Temperatures throughout the south- | west were well above 100. Kansas ] City is 10 25 inches short of normal rainfall for the year. In 1916. the Rev. Mr. Hause was preaching in Wolcott, Kan. Drought condi ti on s prevailed, though less acutely than now. A crowd gathered at his church, he said, and "prayed deeply and sincerely. It started raining the next dav and rained three days. The drought was broken.” Drought in East J>f t utt'd Pre* BOSTON.

NEW DEAL IS PLEDGED USERS OF TELEPHONE Communication Chief Has a Splendid Record of Service. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, July 19—A new deal for millions of telephone users was promised today by Commissioner Paul A. Walker who assumed the chairmanship of the telephone division of the new federal communications commission. “So far as I am concerned, the commission's job is to protect the public,” Mr. Walker said. “The utilities are fully prepared to take care of themselves, and none more so that the Bell Telephone Company.” The new commissioner has behind him a splendid record in the interest of the rate payers as chairman of the Oklahoma Utilities Commission. “The Oklahoma commission,” he recalled today, “launched a case against the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company, which, like the other Bell companies, is a subsidiary of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. Starts From Scratch “Company officials testified that a complete audit and appraisal of Southwestern properties would cost around $300,000. Our commission had but $20,000, so we just couldn’t get any place. “I decided then that the task was too big for state control and realized that it was a federal problem. “I am glad of the opportunity to aid in doing the job. It is a big one. since we must start from scratch. But it is one that needs doing and will be done.” Inter-relationship of the Bell companies. A. T. <fc T. and the Western Electric Company, which manufactures Bell Telephone supplies, is one of the things to be investigated, he said. Fair Deal for Public Former Governor Norman S. Case of Rhode Island is vice-chairman of the telephone division. Other divisions are for radio and telegraph regulation. Commission Chairman Eugene O. Sykes is a member of each. “At annual meetings of state commissioners I have come across

many who disagree with my views on utility regulation,” Mr. Walker said. ‘‘Particularly in the east, there are many state commissioners who think their job is to be a sort of umpire. “I do not hold to that idea at all. The commission's job is to see that the public pays fair rates based on honest values, not on $20,000,000 writeups such as the Federal Trade Commission has just disclosed in regard to the Oklahoma Insull Properties.” Can Eat Nails A TBAfl who says h# feels so good the.’' b* eon 1A now eat nails or old shoe* Is W, Huecksted, 1908 So.

U. S. BOMBERS ROAR AWAY ON TRIP TWLASKA Elliott Roosevelt and Wife Wave Farewell to Army Fliers. By United Prr* WASHINGTON, July 19—Ten brown and yellow army bombing planes, biggest aerial death-dealing machines in the United States, roared away from Bolling field today for a reconnoitering flight to Alaska. The first bomber skimmed up over the Anacostia river at 10 a. m., following in four minutes by the others. They assembled in the air in flight formation in groups of three with the tenth plane trailing. Then, with a roar that reverberated throughout Washington, the great ships circled the city, dipped over the Capitol dome and cut a bee-line for Dayton. 0., and a brief stop for gasoline. Then they will head north, spend the night at Minneapolis and head across Canada for Fairbanks, Alaska, their final destination. About 3.000 citizens waved the ships away. Among them were Elliott Roosevelt, son of the President, and his wife, who were es-
