(By the Associated Press) :
Eastern 'states and Pacific
coast states felt the brtint of hot
weather Friday as the.middlewest
was given respite front 100-de-gree
temperatures to the accom
paniment of flood and tornado.
Nine persons were drowned at
Granada, Colo., when cloudbursts
changed streams into raging tor
rents. .
A tornado struck Montgomery
City, Mo., but no 'one was injur-
ed. Property damage was slight.
High : winds' elsewhere disrupted
communications.
Heat deaths mounted' In the
country, as , the mercury soared
in the east but dropped in the
middle-west. The unofficial toll
was 60 with at least 17 drowned.
A new York suicide was attribut
ed to heat.
Experiencing its second day
of suffocating heat, the east
reported nine deaths and two
drownings. Temperatures climb
ed to highest peaks of the year
in New York.
snored irom the north by a
high pressure area, breezes hit
the sizzling middlewest plains
yosterday. Scattered showers ac
companied the cool winds, but
there was no general rain.

troverales put over until next
week.
The debate ended with one of
the bitterest attacks yet: made
on the measure a speech by
Senator Metcalf (R-RI, in which
be said the amendments "mark
a new high In the surrender of
onr legislative powers."
One amendment would forbid
the Issuance of orders prohibiting
regulating or restricting advertis
ing on commodities covered by
the act. Another would prohibit
taxes on the processing of any
commodity into newsprint. Loner-
gan said both the department and
Chairman Smith, of the agricul
tare committee, had agreed to
the amendments.
Hops were eliminated from the
bill by 48 to 34 on motion of
Senator Duffy (D-Wis), who con
tended inclusion of the commodity
would penalize growers of the
beet grade of hops and brewers of
beer. Senator McNary (R-Ore)
sought to keep hops in the bill.

depressed of all agricultural com
modities.

Early Appeal
On Code Law
Immediate action toward ap
nea! in the recent decision of Clr
rn it Jndee Winters of Multnomah
county, in which he held uncon
stitutional the state agricultural
adjustment act, was urged by
Governor Martin in a statement
issued Friday.
"I regret that our law was so
drafted that it was subject to
constitutional obiectlon which
Judge Winter has evidently found
to exist. I realize that it is ne
cessary in view of Judge Winter's
decision to have these constitu
tional questions determined by
the supreme court of our state,
so that we mav know the length
the legislature may go in enact
ing legislation upon tnia suDject
which will be constitutional."
Sees Need of Speed
"Realizing that the harvest
season Is approaching, and recog
nizing the necessity of those en
Esced In the azrlcnltural indus
try of the state of having these
legal Questions determined, I ask
ed the- supreme court, through
its chief Justice, if the hearing
of the appeal might not he ex

- "The chief Justice acceded to
my request and has set the hear
ins on aoDeal for July 24.
"As distressing as the circum
stances are. it is apparent to

done in the matter nntil the de
cision of our supreme court.
