Fehl, Indicted for crimi nal libel for the circulation during the primary campaign of an alleged malicious and slanderous pamphlet entitled "Black Criminal Plot Ex posed," will be arraigned In circuit court Monday morning at 9:30 o'clock. May Murray and E. Xj. Pitch, Indicted on the same charge, will also appear at the same time. Mrs. Pehl Is at liberty on 1000 bonds furnished by her mother and motber-ln-law. May Murrey Is also free on bonds. Fitch has been detained In the coun ty Jail since last May. It Is also expected that the date of trial will be set Monday for an early date. The pamphlet further claims that claim was written by Earl H. Fehl from a state prison cell, where he Is serving four years for ballot theft conviction, attacked the courts, state police, and jury system, and charged that Fehl was "railroaded" to the penitentiary, and named by Inference Chief of Police McCredle, Attorney T. J. Enrtpht, and Jesse Thomas of Ashland, former financial banker and friend of Fehl, as having guilty knowledge of the vote stealing. The pamphlet furthed claims that a "master mind" plotted Fehl's con viction. The lndietment, returned by the grand Jury of which Floyd Ross of Central Point was foreman, based the true bill upon the above allegation, and the paragraph which read: "Jackson county spent 965,000 in the ballot theft trial, which money was used largely In the bribery of witnesses and Juries and handling the courts." TO BUILD PLANTS WASHINGTON, July 14. 3V ployers have been told by government officials that many labor troubles could be avoided by moving their plants to rural communities where the workers could engage In part-time farming.

Officials aald many factories al ready had moved from cities to Til lages and that the employes were taking up small garden plots on which they were raising home food stuffs and chickens. Indications are, one official added, that the factory movement may Increase, with a re sultant greater economic stability. In the last decade good highways, use of automobiles and busses, to gether with construction of electric power lines, have led an Increasing number of workers from cities to the suburbs. In msny Instances factories, finding adequate transportation facili ties available, have followed eult, In times of depression, the Soman, following the example of other an cient nations, reduced the amount of gold and silver in their coins without lowering the face value. CUT DOWN GRAIN CROPS IN EUROPE LONDON, Eng., July 14. (AP) Heat and drought, which have blis tered the fields of Europe are com bining to reduce this year s grain crop sharply, according to reports from almost all regions Light, scattered rains recently have Improved prospects slightly, and In some nations have quieted the fears of food shortage next winter. But generally It was held by agricultural experts the rains came too late to bring the grain yield up to normal. Spain Js the only nation offering optimistic crop reports. While Euro peans elsewhere were praying ior rain the Spanish farmers started harvest ing the biggest wheat crop In the nation's history. In Italy farmers were handicapped by excessive rains last fall and this spring. It was followed by the long summer dry spell. The Italian crop Is cut further by a slight reduction in acreage. In France, too, weather has un favorable, but scattered rains recent ly are expected to benefit late crops to some extent. Germany reports one bright spot, east Prussia, where, according to ag ricultural experts, the grain yields will be about normal. But hot and dry weather continue In other parts of the relch and In some sections a shortage of wheat is in prospect. For many peasants in tne uanuoe basin the drought meant positive dis aster. It was reported several Hun garian fatrmers, ruined by crop fail ures, committed suicide. Russian official statements In the last fortnight said grain crops will be as good as last year despite tne spring drought. T' USE JIG.
