ENGINEERS BELIEVE
LOWER BASIN SAFE
Flood Control Program in
South Mississippi Valley
BaIks Peril, They Hold.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Army engineers believe the 1925. 900 900
Hood control program has progressed to
such stage that there is Slight chance
OF the lower Mississippi River Valley
being subjected to a devastating flood
this year despite the steadily rising
waters farther north. Members of
Congress from the States laid waste in
1927 by flood concur in this view.
On the upper half of the river a
more difficult problem is presented. but
the engineers expect an early recession
from the present flood level without
great additional damage.
The levees on the main stream in the
lower valley have been rebuilt or
strengthened during the first year of
the new control program, the engineers
said. so that it will take higher food
levels than those Of 1927 TO open
crevasses in the protective walls.
FloOdway Work Not Started.
Work has not yet been started on the
three great fioodways and the spillway
because OF legal proceedings necessary
for the Government to acquire land
needed for the projects, but the
crevasses left by the 1927 food have
been repaired and none Of the levees
where breaks occurred Is believed in
danger.
At Knowlton's Landing, Ark, the
levee has been threatened by the strong
rise. but 1t was not broken and is now
reported out OF danger. At Mound g
Landing levee. in Mississippi, where the
waters poured through two years ago to
inundate the City of Greenville, COM
plete repairs have been made and the
levee is said to be in better condition
than at that time.
The levees in Louisiana also have
been strengthened and sections in
which. three wide crevasses were opened
in 1927 are thought now to be sufl-
GENTLY strong to turn back any threat
from the river.
Northern Situation Held Serious.
The situation in Illinois and Ken
lucky, where the flood is now raging.
ia viewed as extremely serious by Repre-
sentative Rainey of Illinois, and Repre-
sentative Gregory of Kentucky. Mr..
Rairley believes that. while the upper
Mississippi River leveeS on the Illinois
side Of the river bank are giving way,
those on the Illinois River viii hold.
The Army engineers are blamed by
Mr.. Gregory for present conditions IN
Western Kentucky, where he contends
that strengthening of levees on the
Mississippi bank had raised the flood
plane two feet on the Kentucky side. "
Representative Driver OF Arkansas
has found the only bad situation in his
state at Laconia Circle, where locally
built levee has broken. He believes the
others will hold unless heavy rains and
storms raise the water to extremely
high levels.
Representatives Wilmington Of Missis-
sippi, and Wilson OF Louisiana. who.
with Representative Driver. were men,
bers of the House flood control commit
tee which last year drafted the food
control law. have expressed the opinion
that there is no danger in their States
unless the food level goes much higher.
