 A threat that he would be :arrel and feathered if he did not get out of town had not been carried out, and Rev Spencer did not ap?ea. greatly disturbed by such a pros- pect.
 His vigorous campaign against dances held at the town hall cost kim his pulpit.
 T don't want to be pictured as an opponent of dancing" the pastor said today. As an institution. dancing is all right and has a right to live in America.
 What l protested against was dancing as it was formerly conduct ed at our town hall. There was q lot of drinking going on among the young folks-boys and girls of high school age-and ] maintained that dances so conducted were highly 'n- furious to the morals of our youth.
 Lately all this has stopped Dances now being conducted at the town hall are decent enough, and have nothing to say against them

dell and others announced they had
discussed the proposed move with
the President and had given their
assurance that such delay would be
satisfactory to their constituents.
The question of responsibility over
the delay is an important one in
event of another large flood. The
flood act was passed as an emer-
gency measure.
Proposed amendments to the flood
act, as approved at meetings in the
valley states, are awaiting action in
the present congress. Robinson said
that he felt sure that the admin
istration would support them and
that they would be adopted dur
ing the regular session.
The Jadwin plan met with dis
favor when it was learned that
large areas are to be flooded without
the compensation expected by the
land owners. Ransdell said in one
Louisiana district a reservoir of
many thousands of acres was to be
created,
He said the compensation offered
the land owners was not in keep
ing with the terms of the law as I'M
derstood by congress.

Satisfy States.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Presi-
dent Hoover is ready to delay flood
control work on the Mississippi river
until the flood act is revised to meet
objections of the valley states, pro-
vided senators and representatives.
from those states will assume the
responsibility, it was disclosed today.
The President revealed that con-
ferences between himself and the
valley senators have been going on
for several days.
The step is the most momentous
since the flood control act itself
was adopted and is believed to be a
forerunner of an entire change in
government policy.
The White House announcement
said that while building of levees
would proceed without interruption,
work on f1oodways and the tribu-
taries would be halted until amend
nients could be adopted by congress,
clarifying the provisions of the law
and meeting the objections raised
to the Jadwin plan.
