DES MOINES, Iowa, April 1 (#).— Surging waters churned their way southward today in Iowsa, spilling over levees and dams and flooding hundreds of acres in scores of territories. Principal scene of the inundation was at Waterloo and Cedar Falls as the Cedar River gathered volume from smaller streams. Former flood records in North Cen- tral lowa were threatened as the streams slid out of their banks. Armories and vacant buildings were ready to receive families forced to va- cate homes. volunukem kept watch to assist in rescue work.

FETE TO CLOSE DRIVE FOR ROOSEVELT P00 New York Celebration Marking Completion of Fund Will Be Broadcast to Nation. Arrangements were made today to broadcast over the Nation from Station ‘WMCA in New York the program to be held from midnight to 2 am. to- night at the Capitol Theater in New York City, to celebrate the success of a drive for funds for the swimming pool at the White House for President Roosevelt. In the absence of word from the Chief Executive, White House attaches considered it unlikely that Mr. Roose- velt, himself, would listen-in to this program. A number of sbl?e and screen stars are slated to participate in the show. Detalls of construction and equipment for the pool were threshed out yester- day at a New York conference. Lieut. Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, director of Public Buildings and Public Parks, who has charge of the maintenance of the White House, and his assistant, Maj. D. H. Gillette, flew to New York yesterday and conferred with the engineering firm of Raymond Hood, Godley & Fouilhoux. They went over the various plans with F. J. Crandell, engineer, and studied previously con- structed pools to secure the best advice obtainable, Col. Grant said today upon his return. Desirous of delaying the construction of the swimming pool for the President as little as possible, the Government officials proposed to seek bids only from . a few contractors who have established a reputation for constructing swimming pools. Inasmuch as the funds from which the White House pool will be built are being donated from private sources and none will come from the Federal Treasury, the ordinary re- quirements of advertising for bids for tated period on public works do not apply, they explained. .

By the Associated Press. PUTNEY - ON - THAMES, England, April 1.—Cambridge today won the eighty-fifth annual boat race from Ox- ford for its tenth straight victory, set- ting & new competitive record for the century-old rivalry. The Light Blues swept to victory by two and one-half lengths after leading from the mile-and-a-half point. Away first with a higher stroke, Cambridge yielded the lead to the Dark Blues at the mile by a quarter length, but regained all the lost ground in the next half mile and thereafter were al- ways out in front, At the three-mile point they were a length to the good and from there to the finish line at Mortlake Brewery open water was showing between the two shells, Cambridge’s time for the four miles 374 yards was 20 minutes, 57 seconds, the slowest recorded since 1925 when Oxford sank and the Light Blues rowed to a hollow victory. The last Oxford victory was scored in 1923 when W. Palmer Mellen, an American-trained oarsman, stroked the Dark Blues to & three-quarter-length triumph to break a string of nine straight Cambridge victories. Despite the grueling pace both crews finished comparatively fresh. A crowd numbered in the hundreds of thousands lined both sides of the river from Putney Bridge to the brew- ery to cheer their favorites on. Already the favored crew in pre- race betting Cambridge n overwhelming choice when it drew the Surrey side of the river, where calmer water prevails at several stretches, and gave evidence in its even stroking of the fine things that had been said about it. MEDICINAL LIQUOR LIMITATION LIFTED Doctors Soon to Have Free Hand in Giving Prescriptions as Bill Is Signed. ‘The medical profession soon Wwill have a free hand to adminster medic- inal liquor, under the Copeland-Celler bill signed yesterday by Pru&dmt Roosevelt, which lifted all the old re- strictions. Under the new legislation, sponsored by the American Medical Association, the physician is left much to his own discretion as to what constitutes the amount needed by a patient. New tions to put into effect the me 1 liquor law will be pro- mulgated mmfl, following confer- ences with officials of the American Medical Association. It is understood that while the law takes effect immediately, the present Federal prescription blanks will be used until next January, after which stamps will take their place. The new law amends that part of the Volstead act which had laid restrictions on physicians. Under the old law only one pint of spiritucus liquor could be prescribed for the same person within a 10-day period, and physicians were limited to 100 prescriptions in 90 days.

He explained his party’s anti-semitism on the grounds that whenever Germans and Jews mix, the Jews dominate. He declared the Nazis expected the native German Jews to offer to co-oper- ate in ridding the country of 200,000 Jews who immigrated from Poland and “who merely came here to live parasitic lives.” Mass meetings were planned today as part of the program of the boycott and placarded automobiles with loud speak- ers were to roam the streets while thousands of Nazi brown-shirted troops picketed all Jewish businesses. ‘The government’s strict orders against entry of pickets into shops, it was hoped, would help curb any boisterous Nazi elements.
