The flood weeks of to e 3 is receding after two| rential rains which sent the stream on a rampage. covering farm dwellings, crops and sections of the little town of Leon The message pictured a scens of desolation with long lines of homelese passing through improvised morgues in attempts to identify missing rela tives, while churches, residences and public buiriings which escaped dam- age in the floods had been thrown open for relief of the homeless. Hunger is beginning to show its ravages and stores and warehouses have been opened to the demands of the stricken inhabitants, the message ed, while every precaution is being taken to prevent the outbreak of pestilence. With miles of railroad trackage washed out and bridges swept away, attempts to bring in food and medi cal aid supplies have been hampered and the few rellef workers who thus far have succeeded in penctrating the stricken region are unable to cope with the problem. Reports from the Upper Santiago river, in the northeastern part of the country near Lake Chapala, indicate the flood peak is past. The present disaster ix declared to be even greater than that of last Jan uary, when the river broke from its bank and 1,000 people were drowned. Leon is a small city jn the heart of an agricultural section, I& situated about 10 hours from Mexico City on the Mexican National Railway. {alotted Indian | benent by Alp Senator Would Investigate | Pick Up Papers and Threaten| Fraud Charges Before President Signs.
