. ‘During October this ye NE total of 416,543,200,000 pounds of water

This winds up by being a large|

amount of water indeed when you consider that the average daily pumping of ‘the Indianapolis Water Co. is a little above 300,000,000

pounds. Put. it another way. If all’ the

rain had been snow and all. the snow had stayed on the ‘ground, it would have been six feel deep and

you can imagine wha’ a hullaballoo :

would be going on right now. ~ Putting it still another way, a total of 7.19 inches of rain fell in October; which made it the third wettest October in Weather Bureau history.’ In 1919, a total of- 8.98 inches fell, and in 1883 a total of

‘Equal to 110 Days

As much rain fell during October this year as fell the entire time be= tween June 12 and October 1, or 110 days. And yet, even hysterical October could. not bring the year’s rainfall up to hormal. tober was through, the. score still was: minus 8.31 {inches. On the other hand, September was one of the- driest Sieptembers in the history of the bureau with only 1.06 ihches. ° But it’s’ not only Indianapolis that’s been having September ‘and October trouble. The whole nation has. Fact is, the central Weather Bureau at Washington has branded the two months as ‘very unusual.”

* Corn Harvest Held Up

The two months were among the driest on record in the East, and among the wettest in the Midwest. During the 61-day period, Washing-] ton and Philadelphia had exactly the same scanty rainfall to the hundredth of an inch—1.61 inches. That was the driest in 62 years for Philadelphia, second .driest in 125 years for Washington. For the same period, Springfield, Ill, had 20.36 inches, the wettest September and Octcber on record. Des Moines, Ia. had 15.64 inches of rain during, the two months, or about half the normal annual rainfall for the region. Continued rain during the last week has held up corn harvesting badly and brought farm work to a standstill generally, from the Ohio Valley to the. sbuthern Plain area.

BRITAIN TO ALLIES: (BREAK WITH VICHY

VICHY, Nov. 7 (CDN) .-—Britain’s |allies in the Near East, Iraq, Iran land Egypt, are under London pressure to sever relations with France, in ‘the belief of foreign diplomatic circles here today. These circles based their deduction on private information about the current London talks between the British} Government and dominion representatives as to what action to take against “Axis partners.” It is the general opinion here that Britain, ‘with the support of the United States, has now decided on a policy of “with me or against me” in its relations with other pow-

ers If it declares war on Finland, Rumania and Hungary, it is felt here that Britain also will be inclined to demand a firmer stand from those of its allies who still have diplomatic representatives in partially occupied European territories.

HOUSE HEARS

‘He’s Bellicose, *Belligerent Blowhard,” Missourian Charges in Speech.

WASHINGTON, Nov, 7 (U. P.).— Rep. Dewey Short (R. Mo.) yesterday denounced Wendell Willkie on the House floor as 4. “bellicose, belligerent, bombastic blowhard” and called upon his fellow-Repub-licans to disavow the leadership of “this imposter.” ‘About 40 Republicans listened as Rep. Short termed Mr. Willkie a “fifty columnist in our party.” Pointing ‘out that he had supported ‘Mr. Willkie in the Presidential election, Rep. Short said: “I am sorry to say I know Mr. Willkie very much better now than I did then. God forgive me. for ever having supported the ec¢andidacy of this imposter.” Mr. Short said that when Mr. Willkie “sets out to purge members of the Republican Party because he disagrees with them, he proves Le is vindictive, intolerant, - bigoted, conceited, onery, and unfit to be the leader of any party.” “It’s time for us to practice a little intestinal fortitude on the floor,” he told the Republican side of the House,

Blames Democrat ‘Loan’

Then he added that “we can’t really rid the Republican Party of this preposterous man, who claims to be our leader, because he never was in the party,” but was'a Democrat. Democratic Leader John W, McCormack asked: “Why bring us into this?” “Because you loaned Willkie to us long enough to ruin us,” Rep. Short shouted. When he concluded, Rep. Short was given an ovation by Republicans and Democrats alike that lasted more than a minute. Laughing and chortling, Short circulated among the membership, receiving congratulations on all sides.

Keep on Talking,

Willkie Answers

NEW YORK, Nov. 7 (U. P)— Wendell L. Willkie' said yesterday in reply to an attack against him by Rep. Dewey Short (R. Mo.) that Mr, Short “talks like many men when they represent a dying cause such as isolationism.” “I hope he keeps right on talking,” Mr. Willkie said. “It’s all very helpful. , His personal references remind me of the bad boy who, when he runs out of arguments, begins make faces.”

‘| Arsene Lupin's Creator Is Dead |.

VICHY, Nov. 7 (VU. P).—Maur“ice Leblanc, 76, author of the famous Arsene Lupin detective ‘novels - died at Perpignan today ‘where he had been under hospi= tal treatment for a week. M.

His first success was a psychological novel, “A Woman,” which ran to 10 editions of 500 copies each in 1887, In 1904, Pierre Lafitte asked him to write an adventure story for his new magazine, “Je Sais Tout.” ? M. Lebldnc dashed off “The Arrest of Arsene Lupin,” the central character being suggested by a municipal councilor whose name was ‘Arsene Lupin. That was the start of the detective novels whose world-wide popularity rivaled that of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's ' Sherlock Holmes stories.
