RIVERS RISE IN ARKANSAS.

LITTLE ROCK. Ark, June IP.--
Swollen by heavy rains of the last few
days, which continued in some Sec
tons of the State yesterday. rivers in
Arkansas were threatening to sweep
out Of their banks and inundate many
acres of farm lands which were sub
merged by the recent flood.
The most serious damage was threat
ened by the White and Black Rivers,
but the Mississippi likewise was caus.
ing concern.
Water was reported surging through
the break in the Mississippi levee at
Knowlton's Landing, causing the Mis-.
souri, Pacific Railroad to suspend serv-
ice into the Laconia Circle section.
Live stock is being removed in that
section, according to reports received
here, and it is possible residents will
have to leave their homes again.
The White River is OVERLOOKING land
near Desarc, through a levee break
which occurred last February and has
never been repaired. The Black,
feeder of the White. was at flood stage
at Pocahontas and still rising.
AT Forrest City it was reported to-
day the st. Francis River was at flood
stage and at places was overlooking
farm land.

TAIL END OF FLOOD
IS RACING TO SEA
Feeding of Refugees Con-
tinues-Ridges of Land
Emerge From Waters.
By tho Associated Press.


NEW ORLEANS, June 6.--The tail
end of the unprecedented Mississippi
Valley food was racing to the sea to-
day through the 10-mile current of
the Atchafalava River, registering q
slow rise in the southern portion of
the eastern basin. but generally reced-
ing in the upper reaches.
The Atchafalaya has proved such a
millrace for the flood water that the
outpouring volume that passes Nor
gan City has caused the flood level to
be reduced for miles around in COM
parison with the stages recorded on
the same line to the east and west.
Grand Lake and other large bodies
of water into which the Atchafalaya
empties before emerging to find a
short outlet to the Gulf of Mexico
have taken up great volumes of the
flood water by serving as temporary
reservoirs.
The rise in the southern portion of
the Atchafalaya River Basin has been
at a rate of from two-tenths to three
tenths of a foot in each "a hours,
while at Morgan City on the main
river, the gauge has been virtually at
standstill for several days
Feeding of hundreds Of persons who
took to households or made themselves
comfortable in upper floors of dwell
ings continues in the flooded basin to
the south. while in the north portions,
ridges of land steadily emerge from
the muddy waters.
No further rises are expected as a
result of the new food coming down
the Mississippi although inundation
Of wide countryside will be pro-
longed.

MERIDIAN HILL PARK
INTERESTS URGED
Fine Arts Commission Wants
Lower Garden Made Ready
for Buchanan Memorial.

Recommendation that as much work
as possible, including planting, be
done in the lower garden of Meridian
Hill Park during the Summer months
and that the Bucanan Memorial statue
be set in place as soon as the grades
are fixed was made today by the Com
mission of Fine Arts to Lieut.. Col. u.
S. Grant, Sd, executive officer of the
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission. The latter body is in
charge of completion of the park work
and is collaborating with the Fine
Arts Commission on plans for compile
ton of the park plan.
The commission would like to see
as much planting done as is possible
in the lower garden during the COM
ing months, and that the Buchanan
Memorial be set in place as soon as
the grades are fixed, since the model
of the memorial has been approved"
the letter of the commission to Col
Grant said.
Further Study Suggested.
The fine arts body said the sugges.
ton of Horace w. Peaslee, Washing
ton architect, for a fountain treat
ment of the space which was to have
been occupied by the terrace entrance
from Sixteenth street has been con-
sidered, but the commission feels that
the treatment of the end of the ter
race should be studied further, and
may be taken up when the lower
garden is more nearly completed.
The citizens committee will ride
in II automobiles. With more than
100 organizations, including the De.
partment of Commerce, the Missouri
State Society and the National Aero.
nautical Association, clamoring for a
brief ALLEGATION of time that they
might show some special attention to
the youthful hero, it was definitely
determined that any brief periods on
Sunday that may be left free will be
reserved for Lindbergh's own decision
after he reaches Washington.
All those organizations which want.
ed to pay some special honor to Lind
bergh and were prevented from doing
so by the shortness of time are in.
vited to write notes, in care of the
citizens executive committee, which
Will be handed to Lindbergh personally.
Members of the commission said
that in view of the decision to elimi.
nate one of the main Sixteenth street
entrances to the park, at a saving
of approximately 100000, something
should be done with the space made
available, and Mr.. Peaslee suggested
that fountain be placed in the area
which would have been used for the
entrance under the original plan. The
fountain suggestion has nothing to
do with the cascade treatment of the
central part Of the lower garden,
which has been tentatively approved.

sent to Mr.. Hoover by the refugees
in New Madrid County.
Deluged With Rains.
New Madrid has been deluged with
rains almost continuously for the last
few weeks" Mr.. Hoover was told.
1.-TWO hundred and fifty homes have
been destroyed, our money is gone,
we have no security on which to Dor
row and the rain has prevented us
from planting as the flood waters
feceded. Three of our banks failed in
the last few weeks. If the new
flood doesn't run off before July /,
nothing can be planted this year, and
I'VE are done for. The man who needs
help is the share cropper,' the
tenant farmer and the laborer. Even
the landlords are against the wall
for money and burdened with mort
cages. We need at once groceries,
feed and seed. We believe that recon-
struction money should be sacrificed
for the more urgent relief needs of
the present"

path OF the Dorena crevass, has 120,-

levee, it was stated. About so per
cent of the land originally flooded will
be under water again shortly. The
landowners are crushed by the catas-
trophe which has overtaken them, it
was declared, and two banks failed last
month, due to the depression.
Sixty per cent of the 900 acres
caught in the April flood in Duncan
County will be covered again, it was
estimated. Much of this land was
seeded.
Rising waters of the June food
have caused $50 families to fee from
their reoccupied homes in Penobscott
County and are threatening to mum
date once more much of the $4,000
acres originally covered.
In view OF the most pressing bust
ness or the moment, thorough con-
S1deration of reconstruction work was
held in allegiance for at least two
weeks. The relief committees were
authorized to draw on the Red Cross
Tor emergency supplies needed and
report later on the rehabilitation plans.
A total of $S5,000 additional relief
money was awarded Missouri as a re.
suit Of yesterdays appeal.

stated that the continued demand
for the new homes constructed by

that months ago, realizing that

more and more balanced with a
resulting buyers market, the pur-
chaser having a wider selection
would choose for his home the one
which gave him the greatest value
for his money. In accordance with
