Legislation For Flood ControI.

Legislation for food control in the Mis-
sissippi Basin, TO prevent recurrence of
the terrible food Of the last several days.
with its appalling loss of life and enormous
property destruction, will be insisted upon
at the December session of the Seventeen
Congress, according to Representative VIM.
A. Oldfield, chairman of the Democratic
National Congressional Committee.
Representative 0ld6eld, who is men,
Der of the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, in a letter to the President has
urged the latter to direct Army Engineers
to at once begin a survey and study Of the
possibilities Of food control along the
Mississippi River and its principal tribu-
taries, so they can make a report with
estimates to Congress when il convenes in
December Mr.. 0ldfeld will then intro
duce a bill authorizing appropriations
for the work, based on the report Of the
estimates.
at is unthinkable," said Mr.. 0ldfeld,
that the greatest and richest nation on
earth should do nothing to prevent the
recurrence Of such devastating floods as
we have just witnessed, with its appalling
loss OF life and enormous property destruc-
tion.- have no idea what the cost Of
food control in the Mississippi Basin would
be, but whatever it is. it will be worth it
and more. and the American people will
cheerfully pay it. The economic loss in
one or two such floods. have no doubt. is
as great as the cost of the engineering
feat necessary for the control Of these
streams at the food stage, and that is as
nothing compared with the saving Of lives
and homes of hundreds, possibly thousands
Of men, women and children. The recent
flood along the Mississippi was probably
the worst within our history. Unless we
shall take steps to prevent another such
disaster. the people along the Mississippi
will be living in a perpetual state Of dread.
They can never be sure that their homes.
their crops may not be destroyed with any
spring freshet, and that scores. possibly
uuhutCuc VI CFCH lAOuSduuS may DC

Probably fifty millions of people, or
nearly half the population of the country.
live in the States watered by the Missis-
sippi River and its great tributaries, such
as the Ohio, the Missouri, the Tennessee,
the Arkansas and the Red Rivers. Surely
they are entitled to every safeguard the
government can throw around them.
Our Army Engineers are the equal Of
any in the world. They have accomplished
some startling engineering feats, and | am
sure they are equal to the task Of curbine
the waters Of the Mississippi and the other
rivers in the greet central basin, and the
people will most cheerfully pay the cost.
whatever 1t may be. have no doubt
Congress will readily authorize next De-
cember any appropriations necessary to
start this great humanitarian and eco
nomic feat. Should il not do so for any
reason, the matter will become an issue
in the national campaign next year, but |
trust that will not become necessary"
