Southern States and in this case, bad
winter storms and heavy SHOWS would
BIO the result.
Floods are expected from these
storms in Southern States and the
upper drainage OF the Mississippi trib-
utaries. We do not expect the floods
TO cover the sections where so much
damage occurred in 1918; that would
be very unusual. but all should be
prepared for great storms and floods,
the exact locations OF which we can
not now indicate.

CHANCELLOR DECLARES THEY
WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
CONTINUATION OF WAR.
SPEECH WINS FAVOR
Speech of the Chancellor in the
Reichstag Wins Approval OF
Members-Dcsire Of England
to Crush Germany.
BY Karl w. Alderman.
Omitted Press staff Correspondent J

BERLIN, Sept. 29.-Placing the
blame for continuation OF the Euro
pean slaughter at the door of Ger
many's enemies, Chancellor Won
Bethmann-Holweg won the enthusi-
astic approval of majority of the
members of the reichstag today.
He made no offers of peace and
indicated, in view of the utterances
of allied statesmen, that it would be
folly to expect an early ending Df
the war. His speech lacked the
hopeful tone of his former addresses
before the reichstag.
'The desire of territorial conquest
by Germans enemies is responsible
for the daily piling up OF mountains
of corpses. he declared. Great
Britain leaves no doubt as to what
she wishes to do to Germany. She
wishes to crush Germany out OF ex-
istence as a nation. If Germany is
crushed from an economical and mil
itary standpoint she will be boycott
ted by the world for her confessed
eternal feebleness. That is the Ger
many that England wishes to see OF
her feet
Then when England no longer
fears German competition, when
France and all her other allies are
slaves of England, and when Euro
pean neutrals must submit to every
British order the dream of British
supremacy will become a reality
Germany intends to use against this
every available instrument to short
en- the war"
He said the central powers had
frustrated every plan of the allies to
break Germany's connection with
the rest of the world by crushing
Turkish, Bulgarian and Austrian
sympathy.
aside from a few isolated allied
successes on the Somme the general
situation is unchanged" he said.
