3O-FOOT STAGE OF
RIVER IS PREDICTED

The river at Memphis will reach a
stage Of 30 feet by the Nrst Of next
week, according to S. c. Emery, meter
eologist OF the local weather bureau
The river has been rising rapidly for the
past few days and this rise viii contin-
ne this week, The gauge Monday morn
ing showed a rise Of 81 feet since the
last reading on Saturday, and based on
reports from points above Memphis, a
rapid rise will continue during the
week
The gauge at Cairo, Ill, Monday
morning showed a rise OF ~ feet since
Saturday and the river is still rising
at that point, The gauge In Memphis
shows depth of 1917 feet Monday
morning,
Local federal officials were unable to
say Monday Just what effect the rise at
this season OF the year would have on
levees and revetment work at points
along the river. Construction gangs
working outside the levee at points
both above and below Memphis may
likely be compelled to suspend work for
n time
During the month OF October the
river reached stage Of slightly more
than 30 feet. Rises In the river to that
stage are unusual at this season of the
year as rivermen and men engaged in
construction work along the river have
for years been accustomed to do their
work at this period of the year when
the river is usually low. Excessive rains
throughout the Mississippi valley are
held responsible for the rise.

those who prosecuted the Armenians.
The rumor has had salutary effect
upon the precarious situation Sof Ar

JAP DUAL CITIZENSHIP
TO GO IN HAWAII

HONOLULU, v. H. Dec. IA move
9eht looking to the abolition of the dual
citizenship of Hawaiian born Jananese
has been launched at an Hawaii civic
convention on the island of Maui. Reso-
iutions were adopted asserting that
there are, in Hawaii a large number of
children who, under the laws of the
United states are American citizens and
under the laws of the empire of Japan
are potentially citizens of Japan. The
convention declared there is room in
this territory for men and women who
are either citizens of Japan or the
United States, but no place for those
who are citizens of both countries
The convention recommended to the
commission of the Hawaiian govern
ment, which is going to Washington
this winter, that it take up with the
proper authorities in Washington the
problem of dual citizenship in Hawaii
TO the END that through treaty or 9TH
erwise arrangements be made whereby
American Japanese shall. on ar
riiying at certain age, declare their
allegiance either to the United States
or Japan, and that such declarations be
honored by the government of Japan"
