 STRENG7 HE NED City Council Is Preparing Resolutions Instructing Railroads To Make
 Improvements.

At meeting of the city council Monday night the mayor and council men discussed the matter of strength ening the Iron Mountain and Rock Is- land levees, and it was decided to draw up resolution which will re- quire the railroads to make improve ments for the protection of the city against flood waters. The Rock Is- land will remove a defective drain near the cotton compress and further strengthen the levee at that point and also build a concrete flood gate as a further precaution. The same in structions will be given the Missouri Pacific Railway Company with refer ence to portions of their tracks which serve as a levee short distance be- low the passenger station and at the end of front street.
 Ira J. Mack, capable and popular young attorney, was appointed by the council as city attorney, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Fred R. Suits, who was city attorney for some time.

Sergeant Mansfield, Who Saw Three And A Half Years In France,
 Will Aid U. w. w. Drive.

Sergeant H. J. Mansfield, who is making his home in Harrisburg, H., but who enlisted in the Canadian ar my at his former home in Winnipeg, Canada, arrived in Newport this morning from Little Rock, and will spend several days in this and other counties of North Arkansas speaking in the interest of the United War Work Campaign. It is probable that Sergt. Mansfield will fill two speak ing dates in Newport the latter part of the present week if the quarantine restrictions are removed by then.
 Sergeant Mansfield, who is a very young man, saw three and one-half years service in the front lines, and has very good acquaintance with the hun and conditions in Europe. He was honorably discharged from the army three months ago, after having been severely wounded. He is a splendid speaker and it is hoped that our people will have opportunity to hear him.
