Apparently the aenator and his

the dam, knowing full well the value
of the property would appreciate.
According to present calculations,
the senator and his secretary made
about 60 per cent on their Invest

of the senator s Business venture in
dollars. He took advantage of the
fact that farmers In his state knew
little of the expected valuation of
their property and he and his secre

(Copyrlght, 1634, by the Associated

BERLIN, July 13. (AP) Placing
the cost of suppressing the revolt
against his regime at 77 lives, Chan
cellor Adolf Hitler charged today that
Ernst Roehm, executed storm troop
leader, and former Chancellor Kurt
von Schleicher plotted together to take
over the government.
The plot, he said, called for the con
solidation of the relchewehr (regular
army) and the other organizations
such as the storm troopers.

Roehm, Hitler charged In a world
wide radio broadcast of a speech de
livered before the relchstag, was to
head this organization, while Von
Schleicher would be msde vice-chan
cellor In the place of Franz von Papen.
Both of these men were killed in tne
suppression of the revolt on June 30.
Hitler declared that he would never
consider putting the relchstag under
the same management as his political
organization because they had "noth
ing to do with the army."
Besides, he continued, the head of
the army Is President Von Hlndenr

Strikes of labor unions In the San
Francisco bay region have begun to
produce an effect on the supply of
citrus fruits and groceries in Med
ford and vicinity, It was revealed by
reports from distributors here today,
although the shortage has not yet
begun to reach retailers or ths pub
lic. An acute situation exists in the
citrus fruit supply, according to the
Pacific Fruit 5s Produce Co.. which
has already received the first fore
warning of the Inevitable shortage
that will exist If the ptcketers In ths
bay region continue to halt ship
ments, It was announced today by
authorities.
Fruit shipments are not arriving
at the local distributing plant, and
several truck loads of Medford-bound
produce have been dumped in the
strike region. Lettuce Is reported as
available from the Watsonville and
Salinas districts, but no produce can
be moved north through San Fran
cisco by truck.
The supply In Medford of citrus
fruit Is at present sufficient to last
several days, but a shortage may oc
cur the middle of next week. Trucks -
are said to be detourlng around pick
ets, but It Is feared by local authori
ties that strikers may move west
ward In California and cut off all
truck communication. The local sup
ply will then be dependent on rail.
Grocery shipments whleh have
been ordered by Mason, Ehrman &
Co. have failed to arrive from the
south and all foreign supplies arriv
ing by boat at San Francisco or
Portland are unavailable to the Med
ford market, authorities stated. No
shortage haa occurred In Medford as
yet, as the supply Is adequate for
some time. Some domestic products,
such as chewing gum, are arriving In
Medford by rail through Chicago, It
was announced here.
OH products have been received
regularly up to date In Medford and
no shortage or change In shipments
Is expected Immediately by Medford
distributors. Gasoline shipments are
received by the Associated OH Co. by
trucks through Crescent City, where
the supply ''has not been curtailed.
Other oil companies receive their
shipments here from the south by
rail.
F. K. Johnson, manager of the
Johnson Trucking Co., stated today
that from as to 30 southbound truck
loads of largely perishable produce,
such as cheese, buttsr. eggs and
poultry, are normally sent through
this city each week, but that practi
