WASHINGTON, Dec. 3O-OrRapized
ANYWAY workers placed themselves on
record a. a conference last might as
imposed to legislation designed 10 nre-
cent strikes Of railway employees and
rs tayoring government control of the
ines for at least two years.
Labor, making and regional con-
sohdation provisions Of the Esch and
9ummlns railroad 'bills, the three prin
ctpal points Of difference between ,housa
and senate conferees, win rot be
reached before next week, Senator
Cummins said today No session will
be held Thursday, New Years day.
Car services sections of the bills were
considered today with the conferees
agreedv on government supervision II
car distribution to shippers and under
taking to iron out only administrative
differences.
The National Association of Rail
way Executives has submitted an ad-
dttlonal memorandum to the conferees
protesting against legislation limiting
the earnings of strong railroads and
making excess earnings available for
weaker lines. Like previous pleas made
to committees, the new memorandum
questions constitutionality OF the excess
earning legislation.

YAZOO RIVER MARKS
RISE OF 27.4 ON GAUGE

YAZOO CITY, Miss, Dec. 80 (SplD--
The Yazoo river, continuing a steady
rise of more than two weeks, yesterday
reached height of 274 feet; "A feet
above flood stage. Visitors from Bel
zoni Saturday reported the river seem
ingly higher than it was last spring,
and at Silver City on that day it was
reported that an immense amount of
land on the east side of the river was
under water and that the river was
steadily rising and overfiowing its west
bank.
At Yazoo city practically the entire
section Of the city west Of the Y. &
M. V. railroad is under water and ne
groes are doing good business in
ferrying the residents around in skiffs,
The situation is practically that Of last
spring. though the river is possibly not
quite as high as it was then. The local
compress is below the water level, but
has been inclosed by a levee possibly
20 feet high, and its yards and storage
houses are free of water. Never has
the river been known to be as high
in December as at the present time.
On Dec "a, at YaZoo City, the stage
of the river was reported q feet. In
the three days following the river rose
four tenths of foot. There seemed to
be no prospect of an early fall. Green
wood, which has a flood stage Of 36
feet, hut which has been reporting
much Of the lowlands surrounding un-
der water, reported 342 feet on Dec.
"a At times the river has been no
ticed TO remain almost stationary. said
a resident of Belzoni last Saturday, but
those who thought 1t had reached its
highest point found 1t had resumed its
upward climb
To the delta planter the present high
water is of much concern. At the
present time the Mississippi river Is
not high enough to check a material
fall in the Yazoo river but these plant
ers fear the high water will remain
in the Yazoo river until the spring
rains and the regular high water in
the Mississippi both come, and the
delta section will experience high
water never before reached.
