Neutrality bill eased as section dropped
Washington date dateline reports the Senate Foreign Relations Committee agreed to remove a clause linking US neutrality to sanctions on belligerents. The change, after talks with Secretary Hull, would have let the president ban exports to nonmilitary wartime foes if needed, while preserving other safeguarding provisions for the United States and its nationals. Senator Vandenberg urged a stricter approach, fearing oil embargos could drag the US into war measures, and Hull indicated a different reading but accepted the revision to avoid misinterpretation. The panel planned no further action before Monday.

Deer Lodge Area Deer and Elk Counts Show Decline
Predatory losses and birth rates contributed to a drop in wildlife in the Deer Lodge region. Elk numbers fell from 1,890 last year to about 800, with other species showing variances across 1886 and 1934 figures. Beaver losses prompted by legal protection drew concern, while forest service estimates cited 3,398,780 fish spawned by streams. During the recent hunting season 180 deer were taken by 8,880 hunters versus 270 deer by 4,275 hunters in 1934, reflecting variable season impacts and closures in Jefferson County.
