(AP) A threat of secession came from western Kansas today all because of a hungry horde of crop eating Jack rabbits. The threat wasn't very serious, of course, but It was suggested as a sort of warning to eastern Kansas and its club women and game warden protests against plans of farmers to hold the "biggest hunt ever staged" In western Kansaa Sunday. It's cruel, brutal and unsports manlike," protestants cried as an army of 10,000 farmers and sympa thetic townspeople gathered up base ball bats, axe handles and anything that might be used for a club In the big hunt. Hunt leaders plan to cover 40.000 acres In Barton and Stafford counties. They expect to round up between 50, 000 and 76,000 rabbits, herd them Into pens and club them to death. EaBtm protests have served to arouse the plainsmen. As for club bing them to death, the westerner thinks there Is little to choose be tween belngiplugged by a bullet and slugged over the head. The clubbing method Is less expensive and much safer for the hunters. Defending the hunts, the Ooodland Dally News hints that a little seces sion talk might aoften the protests. 4 QUIT LAWGIVING TOPEKA.

(AP) National socialism as a philosophy of life will be denounced as anti-Christian. Idol atrous, and subversive from hun dreds of Lutheran and reform put pits of Germany tomorrow. The document comprising the blast against Hitler's creed constitutes the most outspoken organized attack since her fuehrer's rise to power. The congressional synod of Prus sia which met for extensive sessions during the last week today dis patched Its amazing manifesto to all its congregations and made It man datory upon all adhering pastors to read It from their pulpits either to morrow, or if a copy should not reach them In -time, on one of the ensuing Sundays.

AUTOMLPERILS INSURANCE RATES The all-time record of more than 1 .000,000 traffic injuries and 33. 500 fatalities established In the United States In 1934 threatens a further rise In automobile accident and liability Insurance rates, accord ing to Dr. E. B. McDanlel, president of the Oregon State Motor associa tion. Mr. McDanlel, whose organization is sponsoring the "Let's Quit Killing" safety campaign In Oregon, said latest reports reveal that traffic deaths ac counted for more than one-third of the entire 1034 accident death total, and were more than twice as large as the total of occupational fatali ties. Automobile Insurance rates already are at almost prohibitive levels in many localities, he declared, but even with these high premiums many companies have lost heavily on their aggregate coverages. "The situation is serious from the standpoint of both the motorists and the Insurance companies. Many con cerns have lost so heavily from underwriting auto Insurance that they have been forced to go out of business, merge with a stronger in stitution or to cease altogether tak lng this form of Insurance. "Unless there is a definite reversal In the upward trend of auto fatali ties, motorists may soon find that automobile Insurance is Impossible to obtain, or obtainable only at rates so high as to make a policy economi cally inadvisable. Adoption of safety responsibility laws In Oregon and throughout the country Is one of the most Import ant steps that should be taken to prevent further Increases In auto In surance rates. Statea with safety re sponsibility laws have made much better safety records than those not having such a statute, and eventu ally good safety records are reflected in the Insurance rates charged the motorist." A new non-combustible motor, de signed especially for the boats of a coast guard unit engaged In chasing liquor smugglers, has been tried out successfully under the supervision of a government committee.
