NLRB GIRDS FOR BIGGEST ORDEAL IN SMITH FIGHT
Junior Member Put on Spot - By A. F. of L. Opposition To Reappointment.
By LEE G. MILLER : Times Special Writer . WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—The National Labor Relations Board, which for three years has withstood as saults in Congress and the courts, and from unions and employers, is preparing for another ordeal in January. : The ostensible object of the attack will be the Board’s junior member, Donald Wakefield Smith, but the assault undoubtedly will embrace the whole Board and the instrument which created it—the Wagner Labor Relations Act.
Mr. Smith is on the spot because his term recently expired and President Roosevelt reappointed him— over A. F. of L. objections that he has a pro-C.I1.O. bias and otherwise “lacks the qualifications” for so important a job.

TOPEKA, Kas., Oct. 13 (U. P.).— Southwestern Kansas which was in the “dust bowl” a few years ago paradoxically is the only part of the state now where there has been ample moisture, Meteorologist S. D. Flora reported: today.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 (U. P.) — The Weather Bureau reported today that “wide-spread, severe drought prevails” ‘in the general area between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains. “An extensive area between the Appajachian and Rocky Mountains

a general rain is needed the moisture situation is not as acute as in the trahs=Mississippi states. “Generally, from the . Mississippi River westward to the Rocky Mountains, except in local areas, widespread, severe drought prevails and the need of moisture is urgent. In fact, throughout the South and from the Appalachian Mountains westward and northwestward to the Rocky Mountains there is a general need of rain, an unusually extensive area to experience such conditions.” The Bureau said rain was needed in “nearly the entire wheat - belt— urgently so over most western portions.” Germination of winter wheat seed in the Ohio Valley, the Bureau said, was being retarded.

One Dissent Cited
The C. I. O. is defending the Labor Board. ; A. F. of L. leaders are even more bitter against another Smith on the Labor Board—Edwin S.
