(ft Farm mortgage foreclosures in South Dakota reached their peak in 1932, says a state planning board report which recorded 38,511 foreclosures involving a total of 8,508,408 acres since 1921. In 1932 there were 3,864 foreclosures on 850,826 acres, or 2.3 per cent of the assessed acreage in the state.

Another high point was 1924, when 3,709 foreclosure actions were instituted, involving 836,205 acres. This amounted to the same percentage of assessed acreage 2.3 as in 1932.

Explosion May Result Today with Union Labor Meeting Des Moines, la. (I) Iowa works, relief and labor officials waited Saturday for the 'dynamite" which WPA Administrator Lu S. Hill warns is buried in the Iowa unemployment situation, to explode. The explosion may come Sunday when union labor meets here to consider "striking" all WPA projects because Hill refused to pay the prevailing wage scale on WPA projects. State WPA wages range from $40 a 120-hour month for unskilled labor in rural section to $85 a 120-month for skilled workers in Urban areas.

Hill, declaring WPA is designed to take workers off relief and not to compete with labor, has denied union demands. This week he stopped work on nine city and state projects here because union carpenters, bricklayers and hod carriers declared their union wage scales were "being torn down." The unions, Hill said, declared those projects could be carried out by governmental units sponsoring them at union wages of $1.15 an hour for carpenters and $1.50 for bricklayers. Nonunion men working on the projects protested the halt, but Hill insisted on standing by his "agreement" with the unions. The city council, which earlier declared WPA should pay union wages, has not indicated whether it will attempt to complete the projects, paying the union scale.
