Death and property damage marked the course of flood waters through an area extending from West Virginia to| Oklahoma today. Ten persons drowned. over the week end in the Ohio River Valley and one traffic fatality, the death of Timothy A. Burke, 23, in Indianapolis, was at- tributed to a blinding rainstorm. Levees of the Upper Mississippi Val- ley Basin, weakened by previous Spring floods, were pounded dangerous as tor- rential rains swelled streams. Crops suffered. About 6,000 acres of valuable Arkan- sas farm land was inundated.. Some highways were blocked. Rail- way washouts were reported near Pop-| ular Bluff, Mo.; Mountainburg, Ark., and Alma, Ark. A cloudburst at Pom- eroy, Ohio, swept 20 homes from their foundations. Personal belongings of 100 transient berry-pickers encamped in a Sarcoxie, Mo., park were swept away by a sud- den rise of Center Creek. Sarcoxie| citizens and the Red Cross united to care for them.

Following heavy and general rains over the Upper Mississippi Basin, the Weather Bureau has issued flood warn- ings for part of the Mississippi River. The bureau said flood warnings were i “for the Ohio River and its trib- ies below Parkersburg, W. Va.; the Illinois River, the Lower Missouri River, the Arkansas River and the Mis- sissippi River from the mouth of the Missouri *to the mouth of the Ark-! ansas. | “No definite stage forecast can be made for the Mississippi,” the warn-! ing added, “until the tributary floods | have developed to a greater extent.” MISSISSIPPI RlSlNG.

The Weather Bureau forecast said | the Mississippi would go above flood stage by 6 or 8 feet at several points on its Southeastern Missouri and Northeastern Arkansas banks. CREEPS TOWARD CREST. Four Dead and Scores Left Homeless | by Flood. CINCINNATI, Ohio, May 15 (#)— The Ohio Valley's second flood in as many months crept toward its crest today, leaving four dead, scores home- less and unestimated damage to thou- 1san(uiis of acres of newly-planted farm' lan Warned from Washington to expm’ flood conditions from Parkersburg, W. Va, to the Mississippi, authorities ! in river cities rallied their forces to! administer relief. The river at Cincinnati had resched 54.2 feet, 2.2 above flood stage, and was expected soon to become stationary at 55 feet, provided no more rain fell. A record rainfall of 553 inches in 24 hours sent the Miami, Whitewater and Licking Rivers gushing from their banks in that tri-State area. Many residential blocks in Newport, Ky., hardly recovered from the March flood which reached a crest of about 64 feet, were again threatened. Rich farming land between Cleves, Ohic, and Lawrenceburg, Ind. was covered and farmers suffered losses in farming implements. Twenty houses were swept from their | foundations by a cloudburst in the Thomes Fork Creek district near Pom- | eroy, Ohio, and many families had narrow escapes. Twenty-five families | were driven from their homes by ris- ing waters near Athens, Ohio. Motor travel was disrupted as streams rose over highway | TOKIO OFFICIAL QUITS IN MIDST OF RUMORS Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Said to Have Disagreed With Foreign Minister Uchida.

I found him seated in the dusk at the end of his library table. Courteously enough for him, he waved me into a chair at the oth- er end and invited me to dine with him at 8 o'clock. Reaching for my cigarettes, I memz!l'ed that Crowley did not permit | sm é«¢ ng. ‘His principal contributions to our discussion were his usual nods of ap- proval, grunts, and monosyllables. Very sparing of words, was Mr. Crowley. “*About 7 o'clock the telephone rang and he asked me to answer it. It was my wife asking me to return at once to see an unexpected visitor. Finish- ing the conversation, I returned to my chair and, after I explained the call, Crowley nodded assent to my request to leave immediately. “‘On the way out, as the nghu had | not been turned on, I bumped my head, which explains this bruise. Just as I reached the door he called after me, “See you tomorrow at 10.” He was certainly all right when I left him shortly after 7.’ “Although Bronson's telephone alibi | was later proved sound, he had hardly finished his story before I was con- vinced he was implicated,” concluded Fordney.

Economic Conversations Drawing to Close. By the Assoclated Press. American officials are watching with some concern the progress of arms re- duction efforts at Geneva where Ger- man objections to the British disarma- ment plan have forced the sessions to recess ‘temporarily. They looked expectantly today to the | scheduled address of Chancellor Hitler | of Germany to his Reichstag Wednes- day on the subject of armaments. Defi- | nite indication is expected at that time as to whether Fascist Germany is dis- posed to be conciliatory enough to permit some definite accomplishment with which to close the Arms Confer- ence. American officials telieve the success | or lack of it at Geneva may indicate the prospects for an agreement on economic issues at the London Economic Conference opening June 12. The same political considarations, friendships and antagonisms will bz manifest. Personnel Is Studied. ‘With the American delegation to the London meeting scheduled to sail two weeks from tomorrow, President Roose- velt gave thought today to completing its personnel. In making up the American group Mr. Roosevelt is said to be analyzing the prospects of achieving success et the world parley. Unless the chances are good, he does not want to sacrifice | for a period of at least two months, and | perhaps twice that long, the services of | AJmpmtanl key men in his administra- | tien. ‘This applies particularly to Secretary of State Hull, Assistant Secretary ol State Moley and Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Tugwell. The only figure outside of the ad- ministration and Congress understood authoratatively to be slated to go is James M. Cox, 1920 Democratic presi- Cential candidate. The President may cioose others and is known to be look- ing for one or two Republicans. Sec- retary Hull presumably would go head of the delegation, but would n stay throughout.
