LEPER'S WHEREABOUTS
SOUGHT BY OFFICERS

TRYON, N. c., April 28 R.-The
whereabouts of John Early, leper, who
disappeared from his mountain camp
near Bhrnsville, N. c., yesterday, re-
manned a mystery tonight. Although
he is believed to have deserted his
camp to come to Tryon, Where he lived

of him has been found
The disappearance of Early from
Burnsville was as mysterious as his
arrivals there. He escaped recently
from the Louisiana leper colony and
made his way to an isolated retreat
near Burnsville, where he had been
several days before his presence be-
came known. Yesterday Sheriff Hugh
Banks, of Yancey county, went to the
camp to see that all was well with the
leper and Early was nowhere to be
seen. He had been visited over the end
of the week by his father and two
brothers of Tyron and it is believed
he might have left with them.
An attendant of the Carville colony

TWO MORE BILLS.
ARE VETOED BY
GOVERNOR HUNT
Senate Bills 81 and 1873 On
Irrigation Matters Are
DisapprOved

I'HOENIN, April 2S (49-Two irri-
cation bills, senate bill 81 and sen
ate bill 1888, We're vetoed today by
Governor Hunt and referred to
James II. iIerby, secretary of state.
The two measures were passed by
the legislature just prior to it's
adjournment sine die on April 20
Senate bill 13S, amended certain
sections of the laws providing for
the organization of irrigation dis
tricts while senate bill 81 amend ed
other sections of the same act In
yetoing senate bill 1873, the governor
states he vetoed q similar bill and
returned it to the Legislature and
that his veto was not acted on. One
Of the main objections to the first
bill the governor states was that
it only required the notice Of the
intention to be published twice in q
period Of two weeks. The present
bill he says, provides that the no.
ticc shall be published two times,
The statute should be encumbered
with a long measure of this KING
SIMPLY to cut out the publishing OF
z. notice one time.
He gives as his reason for the
veto of senate bill 81, the fact that
the delinquent tax law which went
into effect March 16, takes care or
the situation which senate bill 81
was intended to correct.

Efficient Measures Urged
To Prevent Greater Toll

Most Dangerous Period Is
Said to Be After the
Waters Recede.

MEMPHIS, April 2S nD Health
authorities of tho seven states swept
ly the Mississippi valley floods, co
crdinated in their efforts by the
American Red Cross today planned
vigorous measures to protect the
health Of more than 100000 homeless
PERSONS.
Called into conference here by Di.
William r. Redden, national medical
, officer of the Red Cross, the health
authorities We're told that they faced
solving "the greatest peace time
health problem ever to confront
America"
Disease, stalking in the wake os
the flood disaster is jeopardizipg life
and health in Kentucky, Arkansas
Illinois, Missouri, Louisiana, Nissla-
sippi and Tennessee, declared Dr.
Redoen.
He asserted that prompt and ef-
ficient measures were essential to
prevent the flood from. taking great
er toll through disease which Will
be likely to become general unless
sanitation and other conditions are
remedied.
In his plea Or Redden was joined
ty Henry M. Baker, national director
of relief for the Red Cross, who
related that staff of $4,000 nurses
and a relief fund that has passed
S2,675,OOO are available.
Reports of smallpox, measures,
mumps, typhoid fever, malaria fever,
tuberculosis, influenza and other
diseases. due to germs and exposure
in the flooded areas were heard by
tho conference. 1t was emphasized
however, that conditions had not
reached an alarming stage. 1t was
held that the most dangerous period
would come when the flood waters
lccede, leaving stagnant lakes and
FOOLS muddy flats and broken or
damaged sanitation facilities.
With tho entire water supply in
the flooded areas out of flood area"
nr. Redden declared, another mem
ace lay in the path Of physicians
vino must conquer the aftermath OF
the flood"
Vaccination of every one, insur-
ance of safe drinking water ana
milk through proper sanitation, ard
isolation of all cases of
disease We're proposed to the health
fficials as mcst effective measures
tn combat the situation. Meanwhile,
with cry for boats coming from
many sections of the Mississippi
delta and southeast Arkansas, Red
Cross relief agencies, calling on the
