Connecticut River
At Flood Pitch
On Upper Reaches

Woodsville, N. H., May 5.-(P)-
| Flood conditions prevailed tonight
along the upper reaches Of the Con-
necticut river. The stream was nine
feet above its normal height and
late tonight was still rising. Low
lands were covered with wate- and
in some places railroad tracks and
highways were submerged.
Stretches of the Boston and Maine
Railroad lines between Mount Orr
and Lancaster and Coos JuHction
were flooded, causing the suspension
of train service from Whitefield to
Groveton. Trains scheduled over
these lines were operated over the
Maine Central tracks by way of
Wambeck Junction. The Maine Gen.
trail tracks between Lancaster and
Beecher's Falls were reported to be
under water in places.
Four feet oS water covered the
highway between WoGdsvI,le and
East Ryegate, VT, tonight, where
the road from here to New5ury, VT,
vas flooded 70 depth of two feet.
Farms In the valley were in some
cases surrounded by water and
farmers were using rowboats and
RATS to transport their milk and
CARRY products to creameries and to
the market. AS yet little property
damage has been caused by the high
water, owing to the fact that there
was no ice in the river.

Dlied in the negative.

IA Deserters Among
Crew of Liner Arabic

New York, May 5.-(P)-The harbor
here today felt the first repercussior
of Great Britain's two-day-old strike
when a firm hand was necessary tc
quell a disturbance among the engine
room "black gang" on the Arabic.
A checkup of the crew this morning

Star Line, owners of the vessel. said
was not unusual. Fourteen men Were
sent to take the vacant places and six
more men added to relieve the crew of
extra work because Of possible ineffi-
cheney of the new members.
Shortly before sailing, reports came
above decks of ominous words in the
engine room. Gang planks immedi-
ately were guarded. When 46 men OF
the "black gang" rushed on deck they
saw the guard and decided 1t would
be better not to rush the line. Three

After the ship had passed beyond

Declares Eastern
Coalition Seeking
Overturn Dry Law

Atlanta, Ca, May 5.-(P1-A we'll
staged publicity campaign is being
conducted throughout the United
States by an eastern coalition. COM
posed of alf-taught plutocrats and
the untaught masses" in an effort
to make the mind of the nation turn
a somersault in regard to prohibition,
it was charged here today by Mrs.
Elizabeth Tilton, of Cambridge, Mass.
of the National Parent Teachers
Association.
1.-THE coalition" she asserted, ais
composed of the vested interests,
who own or can buy the headlines of
the press and the newly arrived
masses who have not had time to
understand our ideals"
Mrs. Tilton, in making her report
as national chairman of legislation,
declared the eastern bloc was res
ponsible for killing the child labor
amendment and the congressional
bill to provide for a secretary of
education in the president cabinet.
This eastern bloc" she charged,
"is also responsible for the failure
of the government to vigorously en-
force prohibition.
THE child labor amendment was
moving on creased wheels to victory,
when the coalition by a headline
campaign made the mind o the ma
ton turn a somersault. which result
ed in the defeat of the amendment.
1T is now attempting by another
publicity campaign to make the mind
of our nation turn another somer-
sault concerning prohibition"

RAILROADS CLAIM
milk CARRIED AT
LOSS, PRESENT Rates

Boston, May 5.-P)-Testimony
that only small fraction of the
price paid for milk goes to the rail-
road was given at the interstate
commerce commission hearing today
on a proposed 20 percent milk rate
increase by certain New England
railroads. A protest against the in
crease was filed by the city of Bos-
ton.
Professor j. E. Slater. professor of
transportation in the University of
Illinois, was one of the railroads
witnesses. He told of financial loss

portation of milk, and said that the
increase If granted would exactly
equal the deficit now suffered. I'm
der cross examination by counsel
for the city of Boston he answered
that if the Boston and Maine was
to earn the 8 3-4 percent return on
Its investment allowed under the
transportation act, it would be nee
essary for the Increase to be ap-
proximately 40 percent. A Boston
oitu -hdllic SldllSllCldn IeStlne0 that

to about one-fifth of cent per
quart, as applied to milk shipped to
metropolitan Boston. He read from
a milk journal to the effect that of

sumner for quart of milk, the
producer receives Z lie, the distrib-
utor DC and the railroad 8 1-2 mills.

RIVAL CLAIMS ON
THE V0LSTEAD LAW

Washington, May 5.-(H - New
light on the sixteen proposals for
modifying an strengthening the Vol
stead act was sought today by the
senate prohibition committee which
recently completed three weeks of
public hearings on the wet and dry
issue.
This time, the public was excluded
and the committee turned to the SEN
ators and administrations, officials for
calm exposition for their proposals
free from the clamor and strife of a
crowded hearing room.
Senator Edge, Republican, New
Jersey, appeared for the vets, while
General Lincoln C. Andrews, in
charge of Volstead enforcement, and
other treasury officers, were on hand
to explain the sixth administration
bill designed to bring about more eff
fectively the enforcement of the dry
laws.
The vets measures were taken up
first with Senator Edge centering his
fire on the resolution proposing a ma
tional referendum on prohibition and
an amendment to the Volstead act
permitting the manufacture and sale
of beverages which in the language
of the 18th amendment are mon
intoxicating in fact"
The New Jersey senator presented
voluminous brief in support of
legality of action by congress in in
viting the states to hold a simultan-
eous referendum on both the Volstead
act and the 18th amendment.
The administration dry bills are to
be considered with General Andrews
and possibly Mrs. Mabel Walker Will
lebrandt, an assistant attorney gen.
eral in charge of liquor prosecutions,
as the chief witness. Their examina-
ton may extend over several days.
