Girl of 14 missing on Santa Monica beach
Los Angeles, June 26. Relatives and police fear Barbara Steicher, 14, was kidnapped after vanishing from Santa Monica beach Saturday. The girl, daughter of wealthy shoe merchant I. E. Steicher, was staying with grandmother and younger brother. A unidentified woman later claimed she would be at Catalina, and authorities found no trace aboard Catalina-bound vessels. The family believes the kidnapper planned to demand a ransom once parents returned from Salt Lake City.

Montana Stock Movements Limited by Feed Shortage
Bargain orders to re izo breeding stock and stock not ready for market were proposed by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific to aid ranches facing severe feed and water scarcity. Freight officials noted that moving breeding stock is allowed while stock ready for market would not be returned. Despite rains in some areas, most of the region remains extremely dry with ongoing emergency conditions across North Dakota and western Montana. Eastern South Dakota reports rains, but the western plains remain parched as pasture and crop recovery will take time.
