FLOOD PREVENTION

The future of flood prevention, at
least to the extent of averting such a
disaster as that now visiting the low
err Mississippi Valley, seems to be
cleared up by the statements of Brig.
Gen. Edgar Jadwin, chief of army
engineers, and Secretary Hoover.
These officials, both engineers Of wide
ly recognized competence, are agreed,
after having examined the flood situa-
ton at first hand, that protection can
be had by building up the levees.
This seems to be fairly simple solu-
ton of the problem, so far as one sec
ton of the country is concerned.
In his report to the secretary of
war General Jadwin stated there
should be an expenditure of 100 mil
lion dollars or more on levees of the
Mississippi. He explained the levees
should be built to height of twenty
seven feet, the average now being
twenty-five feet. The engineers con-
fidence in this form of protection is
indicated in the further statement
that three to four times the area now
flooded would have been inundated
had it not been for the construction
work on the levees in the last few
years. The activity necessary is not
altogether the responsibility of the
government, for states are required
by congress to provide third the
expense of flood protection and some
of those now affected by the high
waters have failed to meet this obli-
cation.
Disasters always have their lesson.
Often is seems only misfortune of a
heavy kind can bring the awakening
necessary for future security. If out
of the destruction that at present is
being wrought in wide areas of the
southern states there comes the con-
structive action that will make such
another happening an improbability
the lesson of this flood will have been
learned.

PUBLIC BUILDING
PLAN MAY MEET
WITH OPPOSITION
Senator Mcclellan, TenneS-
see, Thinks His State
Was Sighted.
BY Roscoe Il. Fleming,
Times Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, in. 28.-The first
note Of opposition to the Admins
tratfon's big public building program,
which may grow into a chorus of
disapproval, was sounded late yes
terday in the Senate.
Senator Mcclellan of Tennessee
served notice that he will oppose a
bill now being considered in the
House. which carries 500, 900, 900 adj
ditional for public buildings, unless
the treasury officials change their
attitude"
Does the Senator mean that an
injustice is being done?" asked Sen
ator Smoot.
Il do, and unless it is corrected I
hall make every effort possible to
lefeat the BILL" Mcclellan answered.
He said later he was referring to
the fact that recommendations for
new buildings for Tennessee amount
TO only about 100000 in a program
which would cost S176,000,000 for
the whole country.
other Southern Senators are known
quietly to be studying the treasury
postoffice recommendations 1t Is
expected that many of them, at least,
will come to the same conclusion as
Mcclellan.
Nearly half the building program,
as recommended, would be centered
in three Statesmen York, Penn
sylvania and Massachusetts,.
Other Northern States. such as
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Michigan,
also are recommended for millions
Of dollars worth of public buildings.
Mcclellan said he had looked up the
situation only as to Tennessee, but
that he would study the whole pro.
gram later.
The original Elliott public build
ings act, which passed last session
carried recommendations for $165,
100000 worth of building, of which
$50, 900 was to be in the District
Of Columbia, 100000, 900 generally
outside, and $15,000,O00 for certain
specific projects.
Upon the statement of treasury
postal officials that 100000, 00C
would not nearly complete the needed
building in the country generally, a
new House bill was introduced fol
500, 100000 additional. It is this
bill Mcclellan will oppose If, as pre-
dicted, it passes the House.

TRACK ELEVATION
MAY START SOON
AT RIVER BRIDGE
Project Awaits Engineers
Survey Approval by
Commissioners.

Belt railroad track elevation pro-
gram, contemplated in this city for
several years, will be started at the
Morris st. White river bridge, it
was learned today, after county Of
f1cials prepared to inspect prelim-
mary plans submitted by the city en-
gineer, for the flood prevention work,
which is to start soon. County COM
missioners are awaiting further
plans and specifications on the pro-
posed improvements, before approx
ing the move.
Divide Costs
Under the plan the channel of the
river will be widened and straight
ened, a new bridge erected and a
flood levee one and one-fourth mile
in length will be constructed. The
river will be widened to about 600
feet and the bridge will have an 500
foot span. This will cost about
$1,000,000.
The county and city will each pay
as per cent of the cost and property
owners, with property abutting the
location will pay 10 per cent of the
cost.
Indianapolis Union Railway Off
Gals planned to start the elevation
project at the northern end of the
railroad. South side civic associ-
atoms objected, and it was promised
the project would begin on the
south.
Complete Plans Asked
County Auditor Harry Dunn said
under the Morris st. bridge plan the
elevation work will begin there and
be carried each way from this point.
Commissioners George Snider and
Cassius Hogle said they will not ap-
prove the flood prevention matter
until a complete set of plans are
submitted.
1.-THE county will not spend any
money on such work until the plan
is set out clearly" they said.
In addition to the flood prevention
expenditure the county must pay -
per cent of the track elevation cost,
the city "a per cent, and the railway
company the remaining SO per cent.
