UN PARAll|ElE|l RAINS IMPRUVE CRUP iliilltlilii

Deluge Should React Favourably On Roots and on Pas- tures - Records Show No Equal Of Precipitation.

'l‘lie almost unparalleled rains of the last four days following the period of unprecedented drought should react favourably on the suffering root crops and pasture und, in the opinion of Dr. J. A. Clark, Superintendent of the Ex-

_pcriniental Farm. Although the

tops of the root crops have shown visibly the effects of the dry vrratlier the moisture came in time to save the situation. “The rain will be a very great help to miingles, turnlps, com and pas- tures in my opinion," states Dr. Clark, "and it improves the pros- pects for the potato rrop. If grow- ers have sprayed consistently, their fields should not suffer from blight. Green Mountains should receive much benefit from the moisture, but many fields of Cob- blers are dying or are dead. "The rain should also help the liaylnnd for next year.." With 9, record 29-day drought concluded, Prince Edward Island was drenched last night as rain- fall unparalelled in more than 25 years continued throughout the province. During the four-week dry F9011. only l-5 inch of rain, barely enough to moisten the soil, fell in Prince Edward Island. With rain itill pouring, a. fall of 5.6 inches had been recorded for the past three days, Dr._Clark of Charlotte- town reported. _Alter looking up old records, Dr.

MOSCOW, Aug. 25-lI'he

United States today delivered an “emphatic protest" against activhes of the seventh con- gress of the Communist Inter- nationale, which has just clos- ed. In a blunt note to Vice-

Cornmisar Kresitinsky, United States Ambassador William C. Bullitt said these activities involved interference in the in- temal affairs of the United States- He called theme- "l`n.grant violation" of the pledge made by Soviet Russia at the time she was recognized by the United States. Kreltln- sky is in acting charge of foreign affairs.

The American Government

the Ambassador said, “antici- pates the most serious con- sequences" if’ the U. S. S~ R.. “is unwilling or unable intake appropriate measures to pre- vent further acts" in disregard of its pledge to prohibit act- ivities in its territory aimed at changing the political or social order of the United Silks.

WAB_HING’I’ON, Aug. 25-Blunt

warning' that United States recog- nition of,Russia. might be with- drawn` unless the Soviet govern- ment acts promptly to end Com- rnuriistagitation here today was read by observers into a note de- livered in Moscow by Ambassador Bullitt. '

Even those who had kept in

close touch with the developing situation were surprised at the stern riote of the communication and what they considered an out- right threat disguised but thinly in diplomatic verbliige.

First reactions from members of

Congress who were active in the IOHB dispute that Preceded recog- nition were both sharp and favor- able.

Seiiator Dickinson (R-Ia), a

bitter opponent of recognition and ardent advocate of severing diplo- matic relations with the Soviet, said:

"There'.s no question `but that

recognition of Russia was a mls- take. Not only have we not gained any trade, but we have given them an opportunity to come in here and spread propaganda among our people without 1imit."

Chairman McReyno1ds (D-Tenn)

of the House foreign affairs com- mittee. an advocate of recognition. said he was not surprised at the note and thought it timely.

"ily information is that the So-

viet government has violated every pledge of non-interference here which it made as a basis for being recognized."

A&i111‘8hC€ of "no intention of con-

With reports from 10 single-mem-

Faced with the responsibilitv of

forming a government, Mr, Aber- hart has called a caucus ef Social Credit members of the legislntiirc but until the counting of ballots has been completed the date of the caucus will not be set.

After police at Prescott yesterday declared the weary "on-to-Ottawa." marchers, returning homeward af- ter a fruitless march to the capital. would not be allowed to ride freight trains, co-operation between the railway and police today resulted in the trekkers riding out of hero on westbound fxeights.

They moved cut in groups of 20

on both freight trains and highway transports, Provincial--and-Mounted Police, massed here to prevent trouble, did not interfere.

Without food or the means of ob-

taining it and reduced in some cas- es to tram-ping the roads in bare- feet because they lacked boots on socks, the marchers clambered aboard the trains when the op- portunity was given them, against the expzessed wishes of their lead- eis.
