Drought takes toll on crops across the Southeast
Two weeks of rain helped ease drought for soybeans cotton and peanuts but farm experts warn additional rainfall is needed to avert losses. The National Weather Service cites unlikely rainfall in the next two weeks while heat and extended dry spells have already destroyed corn in Georgia and North Carolina and threaten soybeans and peanuts. Georgia's dry land corn is reported lost with only minor irrigated production spared. In North Carolina corn pollination suffered under heat while Tennessee may have saved some corn from the drought thanks to a wet spring and delayed planting.

Senators refuse to abandon PAC funds amid thrift crisis
Senate chairmen say they will continue to receive campaign contributions tied to industries they oversee while ethics probes focus on Donald Riegle. Some lawmakers screen gifts and return tainted money, but few will ban all S&L related donations. Riegle pledged to forgo S&L linked funds and repay amounts since 1983. Public anger over the thrift crisis fuels calls for independence from the industry.
