Jackson, Miss, Aug. 1.-THE Yazoo-
Mississippi Delta Board of Levee Com
missioners is evidently not afraid of
the proposed investigation of its affairs
by the joint legislative committee. A
resolution has been received from that
body by Chairman A. G. Anderson in
viting a most rigid investigation at the
earliest date convenient to the commit
tee, and promising free access to all
books and records that may be neees-
sary. t'
The levee board appears not only
willing, but exceedingly eager since
the resolution promises to defray the
expenses of the joint committee, In
event the legislative fund is not suffi.
cient for that purpose
Hon. j. w. Cutrer, president of the
board, apparently did not feel much
worried over the proposed probing, as
he left on pleasure trip for Europe
few days after it became known that
the committee would investigate levee
board affairs.
