DUST STORMS MAY CONTINUE LATE
Dust storms may continue deeper into the spring and may blow up even in summer, if the Western drought area continues unwatered. There is a strip of territory, stretching from the western Dakotas southward to the Texas panhandle, that has been practically without rain for several years. Due partly to this deadly drought, partly to ill-advised plowing up of the age-old grass cover in the wartime wheat-boom days, the soil is all dust, ready for any wind.
