1927 flood of the Mississippi River
will be repeated, and even larger
floods may be expected in the future.
The only method of preventing dis
astrous consequences in future years
is to provide the means for handling
the water in excess of the channel
capacity at New Orleans by providing
either additional channels to the gulf,
definitely set aside for that purpose,
of sufficient lateral-storage capacity.
to detain the excess until it can be
discharged through regular channels.
This was the keynote Of an address
delivered here this afternoon by Ma
than G. Grover, chief hydraulic en-
gineer, U. S. Geological Survey, of
Washington, before the convention of
the American Society Of Civil En-
gineers.
Hydraulic engineers have repeat

astrous floods of this year, pointed
out that the impounding and spill
way plan is the only feasible one for
the Mississippi river. It is used sue

order to raise sufficient funds to de-
fend the nine furriers who were SEN

appeal is soon coming up. It must be
a 100 per cent success!
Collections and Donations.
The workers of the Landau and
