the showing that|the Middle-West-€rn farm belt was the only region where the popularity index has remained virtually unchanged. This formerly staunch Republican territory seems to have become a backlog for the! President, along with the solid South. It was there that pronounced defection on the Supreme Court issue occurred, as far as senatorial representation is concerned, and this defection included not only such conservatives as Senator Burke (Neb.) but the more New Dealish Senators Wheeler (Mont.), O'Mahoney (Wyo.) and McCarran (Nev.). The President is going into Montana and Wyoming. Maybe he can get a clue as to whether those Senators carry more weight on the Supreme Court issue in their states than does the Presi~ dent, or whether the issue has af-. fected his own standing in that territory. $ Senator Wheeler now has declared war on the President and has been buzzing about Montana since Congress closed, talking to the elec torate. He may be a factor in the 1940 national situation. The West will play an important part in the President's developing plans for a progressive Democratic Party built along! New Deal lines, which he hopes to leave as 2 heritage. Co-operating with him in the crusade of progressivism are Senator La Follette (Prog. Wis.) and Senator Norris (Ind. Neb.), both formerly Republicans and neither identified directly with the Democratic Party. Mr. Roosevelt's farm program won the rank and file in the wheat and corn belts in 1932, and this apparently has been the biggest factor in their continued allegiance. This naturally will get the emphasis on the forthcoming trip.
F.D.R. Has Black’s K.-K. K. Story, Claim
By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer | WASHINGTON, | Sept. 21.—The President is in possession of Justice Hugo L. Black’s own version of his relations with the Ku-Klux Klan, according to a nephew. of Mr. Black. The nephew, Cutler Smith, an Agriculture Department employee, told the Alabama Luncheon Club at the Harrington Hotel yesterday: “I want to say this on behalf of Senator Black: He gave a statement regarding this matter to those who appointed him, and they
haven't seen fit to make ‘it public |
as yet.” He did not say whether the statement was given to the President before Mr. Black's appointment. President Roosevelt said at a press conference a week ago that he did not have, prior to the Black nomination, any information about a connection between the Senator and the Klan. j
Hughes Prepares for Parley
Of Senior Circuit Judges
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21 (U. Pp). — Chief Justice *| Charles Evans
Hughes returns to Washington to resume his official duties today after nearly three months of vacationing in Quebec and New Hampshire, ] His first task will be presiding over and participating in the annual conference of senior circuit, court judges opening Thursday. They will discuss the state of their dockets and procedural problems which have cropped up during the last year. There were rumors that the Chief Justice also might confer with associate Supreme Court justices on whether the high tribunal should take any steps to bar Associate Justice Hugo L. Black from taking his seat. That Mr. Hughes actually would engage in such conversations was considered unlikely.

SEATTLE, Sept. 21. — Japan fs riding for a fall in her war with China, for the simple reason that the Chinese can wear out anybody if they set their minds to it. This is according to Carl Crow, American advertising man who spent some 25 years in Shanghai and who learned at first hand just how wearing Chinese resistance can be. He summed up his acquisition of that knowledge in the recent best-seller, “Four Hundred Million Customers.” Arriving in Seattle on the liner President ‘McKinley with other American war refugees, Crow remarked that the Chinese have been tremendously heartened by their Success in holding Japan’s highly mechanized army at bay for so long at Shanghai. Before long, he believes, the Chinese armies will fall
back some 60 miles to Soochow and the Tai Hu lake region. A Costly Blunder There the Japanese, robbed of the support of their naval guns and forced to deal with problems of transport and bad terrain, would be at a disadvantage. Chinese leaders believe China can fight an effective defensive war for years. The whole Shanghai attack looks to Crow like a costly blunder on

ICKES PLEADS
U. S. NEED FOR DROUGHT DAMS
Reclamation Bureau Reports Four Completed and Eleven Begun.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21 U. P.). —=Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes today called attention to a need for relatively small earthen dams to lessen drought affects and reported progress in that direction by the Reclamation Bureau during the last year. Since 1933, when the Public Works Administration made the first allotment for this type of dam, four have been completed and 11 begun. Two others are planned. “A dam on a small river creating a reservoir oftimes supplies the supPlemental water which means the difference between successful crops and failure for farmers on many thousands of acres,” Mr. Ickes said. The Reclamation Bureau reported completion recently of the Pine View Dam on the Ogden River near Ogden, Utah. Other completed earthen dams are the Agency. Valley dam in eastern Oregon; Hyrum Dam in Utah and Rye Patch Dam in Nevada. Construction is to begin soon on the Vallecto Dam to create a reservoir on the Pine River in eastern Colorado and the Deer Creek Dam to. store water serving the new Provo River project in Utah, More than 1,000,000 acre-feet of storage capacity will be provided by completion of these dams in nine states: Alamagordo, New Mexico; Taylor Park, Western Colorado, Alcova, Wyoming; Moon Lake, Northeastern Utah, Island Park, Upper Snake River, Idaho ; Caballo, on the Rio Grande; Unity, Eastern Oregon; Fresno, near Havre, Mont.;
