The petition for a divorce by Mrs.

to an announcement made during the

three grounds for the divorce. but
In view Of the fact that no contest

A Cornell Mans Views.

A graduate of Cornell. who CHANGED
to be in Tulsa yesterday, and heard
Of the Kendall campaign, was deeply
interested. He hunted up the cam
'paign headquarters and was delighted
with the way Tulsa was starting into
this campaign for enlargement of the
college. To a reporter for The World
he made the following statement:
THE greatest obstacle to most
young men desiring to obtain an edu-
cation is the necessity of going away
from home, and the expense connected
with maintaining themselves while
away. In addition. there is the large
travelling expense. Every young man
wants to go home for Christmas and
Easter vacations mad where there is
more than one child this is greater
expense than families even in fair
financial circumstances can afford.
There is no better investment than
can be made by the business men of a
community than in an educational in
stitution you propose to build like

MILLIONS OF acres
UNDER THE WATERS
HOWEVER,, CHAIRMAN OF RiN-
ERS AND HARBORS COMMITTEE
SAYS REPORTS DECEIVE.

WASHINGTON, j. c. April 30
Senator Elect Joseph E. Ransdell Of
Louisiana, acting chairman Of the riy-
ors and harbors committee Of the
house, who has Just returned from the
Hooded section u his state, said to-
day:
while many precious lives have
been lost In the floods Of the Missis'
sippi and the destruction of properJ
is enormous, neither has anytltng like
as great az the press accounts indi-
cnte.
up to date nothing like one-hat
of the area usually protected by the
levecs is under wnter. The extent OF
the flood area Is estimated to be be-
tween 1000 and 10000 square miles
out OF the 10000 protected by levees
The floods, while the greatest since
the civil war. demonstrate that the
leVees will shut out the waters and
protect the cuntry from overflow. A
striking instance of this protection is
found in the upper Hazoo district, a
distance of 124 miles I'm the north
western part Of Mississippi, of which
Major Dabney is chief engineer. In
this district owing to its better finan-
much stronger, with greater base,
crown and contents than any of the
other levees on the river. They have
withstood all floods for many years
and the people back of these dykes
feel perfectly safe. They are plant
ing their crops and carrying on their
usual avocations.
Moreover in the Atchafalaya dis
trict in Louisiana, l2S miles in extent
and in the Pontchartrain district Of
the same state, 125 miles the levees
though not ns strong as those in Major
Dabncy's district are also fine and
have held the floods up to date,
at Is conceded by the Engineering
world and by all students OF the sub
ject that the levees can be made suf-
ficiently strong to afford complete
protection 1t is only a question Of
enough dirt and the cost Is mere
bagatcllc when compared with the
enormous interests at stake. The com
mon Impression prevails that the bed
OF the river Is rising. This is a fallacy.
Reports Of the weather bureau show
that the low water plane or zero of tho
river Is about where it was fifty years
ago while the low water channel Is
considerably deeper now than then,
demonstrating that so far FROM rising
the bed Of the river Is actually lower
ing under the government plan OF
improvcemnt. including the levee sys-
tenn.
"Thc laie General Comstocli. one OF
the most accomplished engineers or
the United States army, testified most
interestingly before congress on this
subject "a few years ago, and showed
conclusively that the low water plane
between Cairo and the gulf is not
rising II is a fact however, that
the water in the river rises highe'
during periods Of flood than former
Is. In other words, the high water
plane or flood crest is rising. This IL
due to the completion Of the levee
system. thereby coufinnE AN the water
to the natural channel Of the river and
10 the thorough drainage Of many
states In the valleys OF the upper
rivers which causes the rain waters to
rush down much more rapidly than ~
old"
