TEXAS FEARS An EPIDEMIC
The Most Serious Conditions
Are Expected to Result
From The Flood.
PERSONS YET IN DANGER
Many Deaths Are Likely to Occur
Among the Refugees as a Re-
suit of Exposure.

State Health Inspector Goes to the
Inundated District-Governor Say.
ers Asked to Solicit Contributions
of Cotton Seed For Replanting the
Devastated Country.
Dallas, Tex, July 13-Texas Is going
10 have a serious problem IN santa
ton TO meet in the Brazos flood region.
State Health Officer Blount realizes
this and has gone to the heart of the
Aood-swept section of Texas. He will
inspect the Brazos valley from Calvert
TO the Gulf-a district 800 miles long
BY 50 miles wide. Strong local health
and sanitary organizations will be
Horned to act as aids to the State
Health Department. Many deaths are
expected among the flood refugees as
n result of exposure and hunger and
from sickness contracted therefrom.
The fears of an epidemic are Great
ing keen anxiety. All the imperillcd
persons have been rescued except in
remote districts close to the Gulf
coast, where the Brazos delta is wide
hnd isolated places are not easy of ac-
eess. An appeal has been made to
Gov. Sayers by IA replanting organi-
zation, of which the following is a
fopy:
i please wire the Mayors of towns
banned below asking immediate dona-
aions of cotton seed for replanting in
Hooded districts. Must start imme-
6lately to be successful: Brenham,
Austin, Houston, Waco, San Antonio,
Temple, Belton, Bryan, Corsicana,
Nayahachie, Dallas, HillsbOro, Alva-
Rado, Rrownwood, Palestine, Groes-
beck Ennis, Wortham. Sherman, Paris,
Texarkana, Denison, Flatonia, Luling,
Halletsville and Weimar. In addition
10 cotton seed the flood sufferers need
black eyed peas, sorghum seed and kaf-
1r, or other quick k-maturing corn to
Dlant as soon as the flood recedes."
The Governor complied with the
request. Mayor Taylor of Dallas had
already started such movement
among the cotton seed men OF North
ern Texas, and the response to the call
Is of very encouraging nature. Many
61ipments Of seeds are already on the
way to the flooded district and some
have already arrived there.
