IN
GIANT LEVEES
Especial to the Tribune.)

NEW ORLEANS, La, May 9.-AS-
sured by the fact that the giant levees
which flank the Mississippi in this re
gion have never failed in their task
in nearly a century. residents of New
Orleans are in no way alarmed, as the
crest of the flood passes into the low
err reaches of the river. Visitors to
the city experience something of a
thrill when they see ocean liners float.
ing high above the street levels. And
they are not greatly treasured when
they climb the dixie and look over into
the swirlin3 channel. The ease with
which great boats are rocked and buff
feted, the way in which trees and 9TH
er drift are hurried outward, tends
to destroy confidence in mans abil-
ity to control such a force, yet the in
disputable fact remains that there has
been no river water in New Orleans
in nearly a century.
Along the river front within the
city limits the average levee base is
% feet in width. There is little dan
ger that this mountain of rock and
earth, pierced with a network of steel
and cypress piling, will give way. The
greatest danger to New Orleans is not
from the river, but from Lake Pont-
chartrain, an arm Of the Gulf of Mex
leo, which forms n of the bound
aries Of the city. When storms on the
Gulf happen to exert their force
straight inland, water is banked up
into the lake. On one occasion in
recent years the height of the water
in the lake became great enough to
flood a portion of the city to a depth
of several inches.
Pessimists have called attention to
the fact that il a great storm should
occur and at the same time on of the
levees above the city should break,
the great volume of water added
would be almost certain to cause an
overflow into the city. At high tide
an average depth of three feet is a
pare possibility. Any break in the
levee system above the city and south
of Baton Rouge would drain into Lake
Pontchartrain. AS the lake is a large
one, 1t would require a great volume
of water to make any p%erceptible diff.
ference in its level. No danger to: the
city would follow unless an unusually
hard inland storm be raging at the
same time.
Even If n Of the levees along the
city front should burst the great dam
