the papers had been fled with him
and asked them if it was their desire
that he cancel the permits, they all

Mr Henry says that he believes in

ever the states attorney is prepared

When the controversy oven the oaop-
ton Of The drainage Amendment was 60
is height, two years ago, Sc was sug-
ge8ted that IL the drainage plans were
carried out. there would be the prOba-
bility that every year there would arse
cond itiOna that would make an overflow
at Fort LauderdaIe inevitable.
Referring 70 the files Of the News
Record Of two years ago. q IS found
that the prediction was made that with
two large canals penetrating for any
considerable distance into the Ever
rlades. and given q sudden. heavy rain
fall, coupled with an abnormal tide, the
country around the head Of New River
and the town Of Fort Lauderdale itself
would be In danger Of flooding and con-
sequent damage.
Il Il not an unusal thing Tor the tides
to back up the water IN the Miami and
New rivers and other rivers emptying
into the Atlantic ocean on the south
eastern side Of the State.
Neither is Il an unusual thing for
there 10 be exceedingly heavy rainfalls
during the fall months Of the year.
When these two contingencies occur
together, and that Is also Of frequent
occurrence, there Is ALWAYS danger Of
overflow.
Add 10 these the conditions at New
river, where two canals are collecting
large amount of water and pouring g
into an already full river, and agpread-
ing Of the surplus water over adjacent
territory Is 20 inevitable Rs that water
seeks its level
From the reports II Is evident that
the expected has happened ut Fort Lau-
derdale. A high tide, holding back the
water from the ocean; a heavy rainfall
and water from the drainage canals
adding ITS immense volume and the pre-.
dicted has come to pass, Miami Me-
tropolis.

LAST PLAY ON RACE QUESTION,
Thomas Dixon, Jry Will Write No
I More Southern Plays After
"The Traitor"

Now that Thomas Dixon, Jr. has
completed the trilogy OF the Recon
struction period that began with The
LeOpard's Spcts" was continued with
The Clansman," have reached its ell
max IN Tie Traitor" he will write
no more novels or plays Of the South,
In the future his attention will be
given to the wonderful growth Of so
eialism.
For many years Thomas Dixon, Jr.,
has attracted the attention Of the
whole world by the powerful pictures
that he has drawn VI life and condi-
lions in the South during the period
OF Reconstruction. No writer for the
stage has ever aroused so much dis
0ussion, and today 4 Is generally rec
Ognized that THE Clansman" is the
classic Of the South. Inasmuch as THE
Traitor" is the dramatic sequel Of that
unprecedentedly popular play, dealing
with the same theme and telling the
romantic story OF the last days Of the
picturesque ku Klux Khan, 1t is only
natural to reckon that the new play
will be as longlived and as popular
as its predecessor. Moreover, The

depend upon It's subject matter for
its success, for 1t would interest
audiences In any quarter Of the globe.
II Is interesting, however, to know
that this is Mr.. Nixon's last word on
the problems Of the South His aim
has been from the first to acquaint the
people Of the whole country with what
the Southern people have had 70 con-
tend, to make clear the momentous
problems that they have TO solve, and
above all, 10 show that the brains and
chivalry OF the South can and will find
a satisfactory solution to all their
problems. Mr.. Dixon feels that his
aim has been accomplished now that
''The Traitor" is on the boards. THE
Traitor" will be seen in this city for
the first time at the opera house
