Washington, Sept %. - Nearly a
million people have been made home

record in that section of China where
the American Red Cross has already
spent 100000 for flood protection and
where the $3O,000,0O0 loan for reclaim

Reports to the State department

All Autumn Crops Destroyed.
Appeals for aid have been sent out
for the homeless who virtually are en-
tirely dependent on charity, as all the
autumn crops were destroyed.
The flood occurred in a flat, alluv1al
section where the north to south pas
sage of the Grand canal had damned
up a large lake and is allowing the
Hwai river too little space to carry
off the excess of water.
