FLORIDA FLOOD
WAS EXAGGERATED

West Palm Beach, Fla, Oct. 22.-
Morris Moore, whose telegram to his
wife N Charlotte. N. c., yesterday in.
dicated that flood conditions in the
Lake Okechobee section of the Ever.
glades were serious, and 18 othe,
flood refugees arrived in West Pain,
Beach this morning with 80 head OF
horses, mules and cows and several
hundred chickens and brought stories
of water three feet deep ON his farm
at South Bay. settlement two miles
south of Lake Okechobee, about as
miles west of here. He said a meet
ing of the South Boy community
council had been aeld Friday and de-
cision reached that the condition was
not such as to call for assistance ard
that distressed persons were being
cared for by neighbors on high land
He complained against what he
termed inadequate drainage facilities
in his section. Mr.. Moore's farm is
on land lower than much of the other
land in that olcality.
F. G.. Elliot, Of Tallahassee. state
drainage engineer, who has been here
for a week looking after canal con-
troll, in reply to Mr.. Moore's COM
plaint, said that no claim has ever
been made that the plan Of reclama-
tion Of the Everglades is completed.
He pointed out that in literature Is
sued b. state officials in charge OF
sales Of state land and the plan of
reclamation warning has been given
against settlers going into undrained
areas.
Mr.. Moore's farm is in Palm Beach
subdrainage district. the subdrainage
work that is now under way there not
having been completed.
Mr.. Moore said he had made no
estimate in his telegram to his wife of
the number Of persons rendered home
less by the flood and denied that he
had fixed 10000 as the number, re-
calling that there are not. to exceed
1000 persons in the overflowed por-
ton Of the Everglades.
The Red Cross of Palm Beach coun-
ty has investigated reports of flood
conditions and reported that the sit
uation is not such as to call for re-
lief, the community affected declar-
ing that this is no distress warrant7
ing action BY the Red Cross or other
assaiaf aganeiAs.
The 1S persons, who came In with
Mr.. Moore today, appear to be the
only ones driven from their homes
by the high water at South Bay.
There Is no information here tonight
as to conditions elsewhere in the
Everglades. The whole number Of
acres of cleared land inundated on
which crops would have been planted
is estimated to be about tow sections,
the equivalent of about 1000 acres.

Tokyo, Oct. 22.-ABy The Associ-

Of Vladivostok after the. approaching
evacuation of the Japanese forces
takes place arises from the presence
around the city Of bandits who are
ready to plunder vladivostok in the

Japanese and the occupation by the
Red army of the Chita government,
