that their discount and smut

riculture, who called the meeting In
an attempt to bring dealers and
growers into agreement, said he will

LONDON, Aug. 20 Wl -'A blister

day following a scorching yesterday
which smashed heat records and to
which was attributed the deaths of
31 persons.
The death toll Included three sui
cides, six drownings, and a dozen
other fatalities. Yesterday's high tem
perature was 99, nearly an all-time
record. This morning it was ten de
grees cooler, but a city unaccustomed
to such high temperatures still swelt

resorts, and the Thomas embankment
became a fashionable promenade last
night Instead of the haunt of the
homeless, as It usually Is. Ice cream
supplies were exhausted early In the
day. Even the beer at the pubs"
was put on ice, which Is against all
British beer-drinking tradition.
The sky was cloudless again this
morning and another roasting was
promised. Hundreds slept through
the night outdoors.
The pllota of night planea arriving
here from the continent said the heat
was as great at an altitude of 2,000
feet as It was on the ground. .

The loss of three Uvea was charged'
against the prevailing heat wave in

Grouse Season
Opens -Hunters
Say "Too Early"
That grouse season opened too early
Is the opinion of several hunters who
were out at the crack of dawn this
morning to take advantage of the
first day's hunting after the opening
of the season. . Many La Gcanders
"took to the hills" In the early
hours and many returned with' the
limit.
Oscar Poarch stated that It was
possible for him to kill seven or eight
grouse which be saw this morning but
they were too small, being able to fly
only 25 or. 30 yards to H$rt In a
tree, while others were so young they
were able to fjy only between 60 and
76 feet. Jtfr. Poarch returned with
two birds.
Frank Brooks, O. B. Davis and Cecil
Ager also reported excellent hunting
in Iadd Canyon.
It seems to be the general concen
sus, of local sportsmen that the sea
son has opened too early, particularly
with the grouse diminishing In num

nearly four times as much as now.
They cited discounts at Portland of
13 cents a bushel from wheat selling
for 37 cents at Pendleton. Similarly,
they contended, smutting charges are
on a war-time basis.
A further point of contention of
fered by the growers was that while
the state law sets the price basis as
58-lb. wheat, the dealers do not rec
ognize It. This means, they declared,
that they receive the same price for
their 60-1 b. wheat that other growers
get for 58 pounds. Portland was said
to be the only major grain market

RESULTS AFFECT

To' Offset Possible Losses,

. Benefit From Brighter
Outlook.
' ' -!
By Frank I. Weller '
(Associated Press Staff Writer)
OTTAWA. Ont., Aug. 30 (ffV-The
curtains fell on the Imperial trade
conference here today and. as the
delegates from the countries of Brit
ain's far-flung empire hustled for
home, the results of the month or
bickering appeared to fall chiefly up
on Russia and the United States.
The chief results were:
1. An agreement that Great Brit
ain will bar the sale of Russian or
other goods In the United Kingdom
at less than world prices.
2. Trade preference pacts which
will mean an estimated loss of
000,000 a year to the United States
in sales of Iron and steel products to
enrplre countries, particularly Can
ada; as well as the loss of an inde
terminate amount of textile business,
British Suggest Bright O lit look
- Aa an offset to this, the empire
spokesman suggested, the United
States, which sold the British Em
plre $1,100,000,000 worth of goods last
year In spite of depressed conditions,
had reason to be gratified because
the ;way i to prosperity was paved for
one fourth of the world's population.
The trade preference pacts signed
here today, they said, would set in
motion an 'accumulation of goods
representing the. economic fortune of
60,0,000- people, and as- the- aba
ity of these millions to buy improves
their ability to take a larger share
of world products would increase.
- For the moment, It was said, the
success of these trade pacts might
entail hardships on some United
States Industries. But they Insisted
the ultimate expected upturn might
more than compensate for It.
Five-Year Plan
The general basis of the agreements
la a 'five-year plan and they may be
terminated after that length of time
on six months notice.
- Prime Minister Bennett was quoted
as saying Canada had won her major
point that trade preferences granted
her In British markets be guaranteed
by protection against state-controlled
competition, chiefly Russian "dumpl
ing." Among the British representatives,
however, there was a divided opinion
on the results as , they concerned
Oreat Britain herself.
Malcolm Mac Donald, son of the
British prime minister, said the Brit
