Gainesville, Ga., April 7. ? me |
storm-lashed South compiled a list I
of more than 400 known dead today
from sporadic spring tornadoes as
flooded rivers threatened new dis
aster over a widespread area.
Torrential rains sent major streams
on the rise even before the task of
finding and identifying the dead left
-by tomadic thrusts had been com
pleted.
The known fatalities from the lat
est storms which ripped* through six
states yesterday include Mississippi
219; Georgia 183; Tennessee 12; Ala
bama 11; Arkansas 1, and South
Carolina 1.
Contributing the heaviest toll were
the textile manufacturing center in j
the foothills of the Blue Ridge Moun
tains were, 183 bodies have been
found; and Tupelo, M:ss., another
cotton manufacturing center where
203 died.
Thousands Homeless.
A composite estimate of property
losses was placed at $25,000,000 with
uncounted thousands homeless and
thousands injured. Relief officials
expressed belief many more bodies
of the dead would - be uncovered
before all the wreckage is removed.
The threatening floods coming
after the South's most disastrous
winter and spring in a decade
brought a serious threat to numer
ous communities which escaped the
storms.
Seventeen highways were closed by
high water in North Carolina and
six in South Carolina. Two railroad
lines were inundated in the latter
State.
Alabama's larger rivers were
flooded but little damage indicated
thus far. At Florence, the Tennes
see was falling in the vicinity of
the, Tennessee Valley Authority's
operations, but upstream it was
rising*
Weather officials said no concern
was felt for Mississippi Valley
levees. Thousands of lowlanders
on the Tennessee side of the river,
however were, routed from their
homes and thousands more were
ready to evacuate.

number was busy at Tupelo against
the threat of pestilence in the wake
of the death-dealing twisters.
At Gainesville 2,500 were home
less, upward of 1,000 homes were in
ruins and more than 1,200 were in
jured. Four trainloads of the in
jured were hospitalised in Atlanta,
70 miles away.
While trucks moved slowly through
the debris-strewn streets carting off
the wreckage, pathetic scenes were
enacted at improvised morgues hous
ing the 'dead. -Steady streams of
solemn-faced relatives moved through
the tsliiMiiliiimnfii seeking missing
kinsmen.

CCC workers were pressed into
service as grave diggers.
While funeral services were being
arranged aa rapidly as facilities

T. W. Palmour said separate services
would be held for the unidentified
victims there.
Surveying the wrecked Missis-'

Claim Italians
Use Poison Gas
? i ? -
British Turn Evidence
Over To League of Na
tional Committee
London, April 7.?Evidence which
convinced the British Italy was
using poison gas in her war with
Ethiopia has been turned over to the
League of Nations for consideration
by the "Committee of IS."
This was learned tonight from .a I
high source shortly after Anthony1
Eden, foreign secretary, departed
for Geneva to attend he committee
session
The evidence, which Sir Sidney
Barton, British minister to Ethiopia,
cabled to his government last week
came from various international
sources whose neutral observations
the British claimed to be unim
peachable. '
According to these reports, the
Italian planes began using gas
bombs about March 1 and have con
tinued their use since then during
their aerial attacks. Although the
poison gas may be essentially meant
to dispearse the Ethiopian troops,
it was claimed that thousands of
civilians, including women and chil-l
dren have also suffered from these
attacks. . ? |
In' spite of the sharp criticism of
the British policies in the Italo
Ethiopian dispute launched by the
opposition in the House of Com
mons debate yesterday, the govern
ment has as yet not disclosed how
persistent Eden will be in demand
ing either the cessation of hos
tilities or the imposition of heavier
sanctions against Italy at the com
mittee meeting.
Informed sources said they be
lieve that any move in the latter
direction would result in failure be
cause of the conviction that Franee
is anxious, to end the present sanc
tions against Italy and therefore
would certainly be unwilling to
strengthen them and invite a fur
ther dislocation ? of Franco-Italian
relations.
~ ? a ? # a I
It was learned on good autnomy
that the sessions of the committee
of 13 at Geneva are expected to
last until after the Easter Holidays.
A statement by Sir Austin Cham
berlain, chancellor of the exchequer,
showing the weakness of the position
of the League of Nations in enforc
ing its will against Italy, received
support from naval authorities.
Writing in Brassey's naval annual
for 1936, published today, Capt E.
Altham of the British navy, de
clared: ' "The strength of our fleet
is so reduced that when it is put to
a test it is found to have no safe
margin over a second class stan
dard."
? (Capt Altham apparently refer
red to the concentration of British
warships in the Mediterranean re
cently when Italy strengthened her
forces in Libya.)
"That fleet has only been brought
up to the standard strength which
circumstances have made necessary
by drawing on home, China, and
West Indies stations, even on Aus
tralian, and New Zealand naval
forces," he continued.

Program Is Best
Ever DeM
Program Will Give Far
mers Direct Financial)
Aid In Form of Pay
ments For limiting
Production ; J
Agricultural authorities say the!
new soil-improvement program is!
the best plan ever undertakftn for the}
[all-round development of North Caro-|
jlina farming.
| If farmers cooperate whole-heart*)
edly with the program, said Dean LI
O. Schaub, of State College* it Willi
elevate agriculture in this State to aj
higher plane than ever before.
| The new program embodies many)
[of the fundamental principles advo-j
cated by the extension service for}
years, he said, but it is much more |
?comprehensive and far-reaching than!
anything that has gone before.
The nature of the new program j
makes it applicable to every farm I
in the State, said the dean in urging!
all farmers to take part in it so they j
can share in its benefits. ?
The program will give the farmers]
direct financial aid in the form of!
payments for limiting their ptoduc-1
tion of soil-depleting crops and for}
carrying out various soil-building j
and conserving practices.
From 15 to 20 million dollars will]
be available for distribution this year]
in soil-conservation grants to North]
Carolina farmers. *
' ~~ " - * - i?_ I
Indirectly, it win aia mem nntui
cially by preventing the production
of price-ruining surpluses, by in
creasing the efficiency of .farming,
and by stimulating the live-at-home
movement.
The soil-building practices, if fol
lowed generally, will greatly increase
the fertility of the soil within the
next few years, the dean pointed out,
and this will make possible a more
economic and efficient production of
crops.
By checking erosion in the moun
tain and Piedmont areas and by re
claiming worn-out land, he continu
ed, the program will reverse , the soil
ravaging processes that have beep
going on for years. This will help
safeguard the future of agriculture
and the Nation.
The program will encourage bal
anced farming so as to avoid the
overproduction of certain crops to
the neglect of others. It will also
encourage the farmers to produce at
home, as much as possible, the things
needed on the farm.
By stimulating the production of
forage and feed crops, the program
will give an impetus to dairying and
the production of beef cattle, the dean
pointed out.
The State needs more dairy and
beef cattle, he emphasized.
An increase in timber production
and land reclamation through refor
estation will also follow. This year
forestation of fields which have been
in cultivation will probably count as
a soil-building practice for which
payments will be made. ?
The dean also announced that Sec
retary of Agriculture Henry A. Wal
lace has appointed a state committee
of representative farmers to help
determine certain policies of the new
program.
Among the matters to come before
the committee are: the rate of
payment for various 'soil-building
practices, which practices - will be
considered soil-building, and the rate
of payment for reducing the acreage
of soil-building crops other than cot
ton, tobacco, and peanuts.
He said too, that work sheets
which farmers will need in connection
with the program will scon be in the
hands of every county agent for
general distribution.

Washington, April 8.?Following
the action of the. House of Repre
sentatives today in passing the Ken
tobacco compact bill by a vote of
189 to 117, three members of the
North Carolina Relegation, with the
approval-of their colleagues, issued
formal statements calling for the im
mediate convening, without further
delay, of a special session of the
North Carolina General Assembly.
The authors of the statements,
Representatives Doughton, Warren,
and Uinstead, baaed their statements
on personal assurances which have
been given them by Senate leaders
of early anli favorable action in that
body.
Senator Bailey declined to go into
the matter of a special session, tak
ing the position assumed by House
members prior to action in .the House,
but did g confirm the judgment of
House members as to early action
in the Senate.
There is a possibility of Senate
action tomorrow, as the Senate will
meet in legislative session at 11:30
a. m., 30 minutes before beginning
its session as a court for the im
peachment trial of Federal Judge
Halstead L. Ritter, of Florida.
Relief Measure.
The first business to be considered
tomorrow will be the bill in which
the city of Greensboro is gratly in
terested increasing the authority of
the RFC to make loans to victims of
floods and tornadoes from $11,000,
000 to $50,000,000.
If that bill does not consume the
entire 30 minutes, there will be an
opportunity to take up the tobacco
compact bill, but any extended op
position would send it over until a
later occasion.
Representative Lindsay C. Warrea
said?
"Now that the House has passed
the tobacco compact legislation and
speedy action has been assured in
the Senate, I think the time has now
come when there should be an im
mediate session of the General As
sembly of North Carolina. As to
bacco will soon be in the ground in
our State, time is the essence if
there is to be any form of control
this year."
