States Gets Hot '
Aiul Cold Weather
<By The Associated Press*
Cool air and rain brought tem
porary relief to many areas in the
nation’s hot weather belt today.
The dry-stricken northeastern
states didn’t get much rain to help
the wilting crops, but cooling
breezes from the Hudson Bay re
gion broke a long hot spell in
many sections.
Rain over many midwest States
also brought temporary relief
from the hot humid weather.
Heavy falls were reported in parts
of Missouri, Kansas and Nebras
ka.
New York, sweltering in hot
and humid weather and without
substantial falls of rain for 32
days, got welcome relief Monday
night as the mass of cool air
moved in. The weather bureau at
the city’s international airport at
Idlewild, Queens, reported a 10
degree drop—from 81 to 71 de- \
grees—in three minutes .
The New England States, rain
less and, hot most of June, report
ed temperatures in the 70’s, a
drop in some areas of from 10 to
20 degrees.
There were thunderstorms in
paVts of Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois,
Wisconsin, Kansas, Missouri and
Nebraska. The weather bureau re
ported a fall of 4.11 inches in six
hours at Tarkio, Mo.; 3.54 inches
in six hours at Concordia, Kans.;
and 2.15 inches at Omaha in three
hours. In Omaha, asphalt streets
were buckled by the rain, piling
asphalt three feel high. At nearby
Council Bluffs, la., traffic was
blocked on the main street 90 min
utes by high water.
While the east, midwest and
southern States suffered in the
heat and humidity yesterday, cold
weather covered most of Idaho
and the mercury dipped to below
freezing in central Oregon. Wheat
crops were believed damaged by
frost in central Oregon. The cold
weather blackened potato and pea
vines and nipped wheat and other
crops in eastern Idaho.
Airplanes cruised over the south
central Idaho area to keep 80,000
acres of the Camas county wheat
crop from freezing. The cruising
planes fanned the surface air
blanket tending to ward off freez
ing temperatures.
The people who are so anxious
to help you sow’ your w’ild oats
generally disappear when the har
vest comes around.

Coplon Fate In
Hand Of Jury
J
WASHINGTON. (/P)—’The Ju
dith Coplon espionage case went
to a federal court jury today.
The jury retired to decide the
fate of the former justice depart
ment worker after listening to in-,
structions by federal judge Albert
L. Reeves on points of law.
The judge spoke for 25 min
utes, repeatedly stressing that the |
defendant’s intent was a major,
point for the jury’s consideration.
Before the judge began speak-1
ing, defense attorney Archibald i
Palmer demanded that he declare 1
a mistrial.
Palmer’s move was based in
part on the closing argument of
prosecutor John M. Keeley, Jr.,!
who described Miss Coplon as a
clever spy in Russia’s behalf.
Palmer argued that Kelley’s ap
peal was based on “passion and i
prejudice.”
“I deny the motion,” Judge
Reeves said when Palmer finished.
