EMPTY BASINS To
CHECK THE FLOOD

Checking floods in the Wisconsin
river by means of the dam is said to
be the plan favored by U. S. officials.
It is said the power companies will
be obliged to open the flood gates of
the many dams and empty the reser-
voirs promptly at first notice of an
approaching flood. Then before the
flood can reach dangerous height or
do any serious damage all these big
empty basins will have to be filled.
By the time the flood has filled the
dozen or more reservoirs it is likely to
be under control. There are about a
dozen dams in the river.

PLANS FOR EXTRA SESSION
Leader Underwood VIII Confer With
President Elect.

Washington, Dec 26.-plans for the
extra session Of congress to be called
some time between March and Apr!!
Is next viii be discussed, and may be
tentatively framed, at a conference at
Princeton probably late this week be-
tween President Elect Wilson and
Representative Underwood of Ala
Dama, Democratic leader of the house
Mr. Underwood is gradually recover
ing from the grip and he has advised
Mr. Wilson that this prevented his
acceptance of an invitation to confer
with him at definite date, but it is
probable the time will be determined
by Mr. Wilson within twenty-four
hours
All the Democratic leaders are
agreed upon the calling of an extra
session. the only uncertainty being as
to the date. Their position Is that
the range of subjects to be taken up
at the extra session can be deter
mined largely upon the basis of the
incoming presidents suggestions In
his call for the session.
