MISSISSIPPI IN MINIATURE FLOWS
IN SENATE OFFICE BASEMENT
Working Model, 20 Feet Long, Shows How
Giant Spillway Down Valley Would
Care for Floods.

The meandering Mississippi River Is
moving through the basement of the
Senate ONCE Building these days. in
miniature, safely confined In working
model, erected 10 show members of Con-
gress how future foods could be pre-
vented by construction OF the Riker
spillway from Cairo, Ill. 10 the Gulf OF
Mexico.
Stretched out before the eye OF the
spectator. on a platform 10 feet long, Is

tions mark the winding course of the
main stream and It's tributaries A sys-
tenn Of plumbing has been installed
which keeps water flowing down the
several rvers. emptying into the Father
OF Waters and continuing on the Gulf.
Follows Nearly Straight Line.
The huge Riker spillway can be seen
following an almost straight line, bend
ing only here and there 10 cross the
river. The model demonstrates how the
food waters OF the Mississippi would
run of through the spillway.
The spillWay would cover distance
OF $40 miles from Cairo 10 the Gulf and
would be s miles wide, It's sides would
consist Of huge earthen levees 800 feet
vide at the bottom, 30 feet high and
lapering TO width of 100 feet on top
Supporters OF the project say the broad
tops Of these two leveea could be used
by railroads and for highway purposes
The straightness Of the spillway. In
contrast 10 the irregular route 0f the
river Is graphically shown In the model,
and the tops OF the levees would afford
quick means 0f travel,
In building up these levee drainage
canals would be created at their base
ON each side OF the Apillway, which. ad-
yocaies of the property say, would drain
large area OF the valley,

Mo water flows into the spillway until
The river rises 40 degrees and for the

HEFL|N LAUNCHES
TRADE ON SMITH
Refuses to Delay Speech on
"Roman Political Machine"
to Allow Vote.
By the Associated Press.


Senator Heflin Of Alabama made
another attack on Gov. Smith of New
York today in the Senate. charging
that he was the head OF the Roman
Catholic political machine in America
There are two standards in this
country" Hefiln shouted to q FUN cham
Der and crowded galleries. They are
the Roman standard and the American
standard When they clash one must
so down and 1t viii not be the Amer
ican standard"
Hefiin obtained the floor Immediately
after the Senate convened. but Senator
Curtis of Kansas. the Republican
leader, invoked the rule Of the regular
order OF business and took him of
his feet. But IL was not for long. A
few minutes later House bill was laid
before the Senate, and the Alabaman
announced that he would speak on that.
After he had proceeded little way.
Senator Curtis again sought to invoke
a rule to prevent the address, but was
overruled by Vice President Dawes.
The Kansan then reminded Hefiin that
the Senate was to so into executive
session at 5 pm, and 1t was the desire
to dispose OF the naval appropriation
bill first
THE Senator's speech can Just as
well go over to some other day" Curtis
said
Not this speech can't SO over"
Helm retorted.

In time OF emergency. would not fiow
too rapidly down to the Gulf.
The estimated cost OF the entire prof.
ect complete is $765. 100000. but the
immediate suggestion Is 10 build the
lower unit from Red River Landing To
the Gulf to protect New Orleans The
length OF this lower unit OF the spillway
would be 90 miles. while the river from
that point to the Gulf takes winding
course OF 800 miles. The lower unit
could be built In little more than
three years at cost of $i35, ,000, 900.
The designer OF the plan Is Carroll
l.. Riker, engineer. The Joint resolution
10 provide for hearings and study OF the
project was introduced by Senator Fra
