High, a writer and lecturer on National and international affairs who once headed the Good Neighbor League supporting Roosevelt, said his first reason for turning to Willkie was that the Democratic candidate "is not Mr. Roosevelt." "The candidate, rather. Is the composite of a small clique of dubiously American but highly purposeful men for whom, as one of them once remarked, Mr.

Roosevelt plays the tune that they compose." he declared. "I dislike the tune and distrust its composers."

In the year ending July 15, only thirty-one storms were counted at the Guymon, station of the Soil Conservation service.

Farmers call the 1940 crop a "miracle" because it was planted in the dust of last fall's long drouth and was given up for dead during the winter. Late winter and spring storms revived it.

The latest Department of Agriculture estimates indicated bushels of wheat would be harvested in Colorado, Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma and New Mexico, where most of what remains of the dust bowl is located. This is 46,977,000 bushels short of the average crop for that area in the ten years from 1928 to 1938. And there still are some real dust bowl areas in Nebraska and elsewhere. Oklahoma Tiills Ahead.

Wilson Cowen, regional direc tor of the Farm Security Admin istration, discussing the economic condition of dust bowl farmers, says that despite the small wheat crop "dust bowl collections on loans made by F.S.A. are improv ing monthly."

Fletcher had issued nn Inter- pretation of the Hatch Act's re-jtrictions on campaign contributions, and Jackson had characterized the interpretation as a plan "for avoiding the limitations" of the act. Jackson Challenged.

In reply, Fletcher said in a itatement that the Republican National Committee had no intention of "evading or skirting" these provisions. He challenged Jackson to say specifically wherein the interpretation was wrong nd asked: "I Mr. Jackson, by a general denial of my interpretation, trying to intimidate contributors to nv committee working for Mr. Willkie? If not. will he tell me where I am wrong? We want to observe the law." Fletcher made public Saturday his opinion that the act's provi-Fion regarding $5,000 maximum campaign donations applied only to contributions to a party's national committee, or its Senatorial or Congressional committees.

Donors were free, he said, to make additional contributions to State or local organizations. Jackson Replied. Jackson then issued a statement which said that while the Justice Department would not render advisory opinions on the Hatch Act, it was only i to give notice that the department did not accept Fletcher's view. In the Senate Monday, Senator Hatch N. author of the law, declared that Fletcher's opinion was an exposition "to evade the principle of the act." Bankhead Aid Recalled.

Hatch recalled that Senator Bankhead Ala.) had sponsored the provision limiting individual political contributions to $5,000, and added: "There was no doubt what that provision meant, there was no doubt what the Senator from Alabama meant, and there was no doubt what the Senate meant by its record vote."
