Canada’s gift to Indianapolis tonight will be 5-below zero temperatures and there is no return to normal winter weather in ‘sight. That was the prediction of the Weather Bureau today as it charted the course of new masses of cold air moving this way from the Canadian Northwest. It will “not be quite so cold tomorrow afternoon” the bureau said, but the change will be slight. The mercury went io 1 below here at 3 and 4 o'clock this morning and then began a perfuncfory rise. The cold extended from the Canadian border to the Gulf of Mexico

and from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Coast.

Illinois May Lose Peaches

In northern Montana, wheer the new cold mass entered the United States last night, the mercury dropped to 27 degrees below zero. Northern Minnesota points reported readings around 14 and 16 below. Central plains states, where there had been a moderation during the week, once more experienced temperatures from zero to a few degrees above. Dixieland felt it too, with Alabama highways closed by hazardous traffic conditions and temperatures down to a few degrees above zero. The cold threatened severe damage to 1940 crops. It imposed belowfreezing temperatures upon the Florida ' and Rio Grande winter growing belts. Dr. M. J. Dorsey of the University of Illinois College of Agriculture said it may have -caused “almost a total toss” of the Illinois peach crop which has been valued at $2,000,000 for the last three years. Frozen rivers brought threats. Pittsburgh reported

gorges in the Allegheny, Mononga-

hela and Ohio Rivers which would overflow the banks in the event of a sudden thaw or rain.

Woman Hurt in Fall

The Ohio River at Cincinnati was believed too low to carry a flood threat but ice gorges were being dynamited at Gallipolis to: break a path for ferry service. Even in the Cumberland River, in Tennessee, which hasn't frozen over since 1905, ice was forming along the banks. The Stone River near Lebanon, Tenn., was frozen over.

STATE TO LAUNCH MILK STRIKE PROBE

The State Milk Control Board today began an investigation of a strike at South Bend that disrupted |. milk deliveries for nearly two weeks. The action was taken on the petition: of the International Téamsters Union which charged that South Bend dairies had been unfair to their employees. The petition said that owners of two dairies refused to negotiate for a new contract and that 20 other dairies subsequently “locked out” their employees. The State Board appointed W. W. Ross, board member, and C. W. Humrickhouse, board secretaty to make the investigation.

U. S.-JAPANESE TENSION RISES

Tokyo Resentful as Trade Treaty. Expires to Peril

‘New Order’ in Asia.

TOKYO, Friday, Jan. 26 (U. P.). —Japan’s relations with the United States entered a sericus stage today as the 1911 commercial treaty expired amid increasing resentment

and anxiety over the possibility of |:

future economic retaliation.

Trade with the United States went on a day-to-day basis at midnight (9 a. m. Indianapolis Time), according to the Japanese Foreign Office view of the United States denunciation of the treaty. (In Washington, it was said that officials regarded the denunciation as effective at 12:01 a. m. Saturday instead of 12:01 a. m. Friday.) Regardless of the exact hour of expiration of the treaty, there was increasing speculation among. Japanese businessmen as to the danger of future embargo measures by the United States, which is viewed here as seeking to bring about modification of the Japanese program for a “new order” in East Asia. Businessmen privately expressed belief that such measures by Wash-

ington would be certain to bring

about reprisals in the Far East against the United States. In that connection, Gen. Masaharu Homma, commander-in-chief of the Japanese Army in North China, declared in Tientsin that Japan must “reconsider appropriate steps” if the United States fails to “respond” to the good will efforts of Japan. The Japanese military in North China recently has been in serious dispute with Great Britain and for (Continued on Page Three)

Or, rather, not doing what they are expected to. “They just won't lay as many eggs in cold weather,” Mr. Martin said.

Long Range THE LOW TEMPERATURES will continue until the end of February and when they do come up within striking distance, it'll be nasty outside. That's the opinion of Bert Oyler, 940 Woodlawn Ave. amateur weather man who last November hit it on the nose when he said we were going to have an awfully cold winter. ‘“There’ll be spells it'll warm up,” he says, “but every. time it does, it'll snow or rain.” Bert tells the weather six months ahead of time by the di- . rection the wind is blowing when the sun crosses the equator.

Discount Wheeler and Lewis Third Term Doubts Until Foreign and Domestic Policies Develop.

(Additional Political News, Page Five)

By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.—Senator Burton K. Wheeler's belief that it would be “extremely difficult” to re-elect President Roosevelt, dnd John L. Lewis’ certainty that a third-term candidacy would result in “ignominious defeat,” are not widely shared here. Most politicians confess that they do not know, that it would depend:

which cannot. yet be forecast. Some agrée with the Wheeler and Lewis guess that the President will not be a candidate. But they are not betting money on it. The most characteristic thing about this third-term opinion is the rapidity with which it shifts. Before the war the sentiment was against a third term. Then it swung the other way, Then back again. Now a majority of the political experts are on the: fence. Among those of definite opinion, more think

Ihe can be elected if he runs than

those who think otherwise. Two Causes for Uncertainty Two factors account for this unusual degree of uncertainty among the dopesters and insiders. One is that Mr. Roosevelt himself has deliberately and successfully inspired conflicting reports about his personal intentions. The other is that nobody can know really what would happen if the irresistible force (popularity in an emergency) met the ‘immovable object (unwritten law against a third term). As to the unwritten law, publicopinion polls seem to indicate that this is not as strong as hitherto generally assumed. As to the irresistible force, the remarkable increase in the President’s popuiarity this winter is as surprising as it is unwelcome to all but the New Dealers. Indeed, the President so completely dominates the political scene that none of the other candidates—Democratic or Republican—is able to hold public interest, Not oné of the other candidacies so far has. developed the
