MISSISSIPPI FLOOD
/ TAKES MANS LIFE
Plantation Foreman First
Victim, of Present High
| WateFs-Threat Grows.

BY the Associated Press.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 24.-From
softened, crumbling levee tops along
half dozen Mississippi Valley streams,
men Iool-ed down today upon threaten
ing water and found in the sight suf-
ficient cause for working the harder to
hold the rivers within bounds. Near
one of the levees human body fioated.
The high water in the Mississippi
River and its tributaries took the sea-
sons first recorded flood death last
night. Raymond Hays, %, a plantation
foreman, was drowned in Red River
near Texarkana, Ark, while trying to
rescue horses surrounded by the food.
In that vicinity some 1000 acres were
under water and property loss had been
severe.
Outlook Pessimistic.
There had been no other breaks re-
ported, despite the pessimistic outlook
of Mississippi Delta citizens. and
Theodore G. Bilbo, Governor of MissiS-
sippi, and engineers in charge Of the
Mounds landing levee near Greenville
naintained their confidence that the
levee would be saved-barring always
the accidents no experienced river man
overlookS in predictions.
Crews were reinforcing the mounds
landing levee along a 200-mile stretch
bordering three counties. Backwater
has covered a considerable area. forcing
a branch railway line to suspend opera
f{OnS IN that territory
Break Near Kennett.
The Arkansas and White Rivers in
Arkansas and the st. Francis in
Missouri kept engineers and workmen
busy. There was a generally expressed
hope that further breaks on these
streams would be prevented. The st.
Francis has broken through near Ken
nett, flooding between Is, 900 and 10000
acres.
Another danger point on the Missis-
sippi, near Hickman, KY, continued to
offer the menace It has presented for
weeks, but as engineers progressed in
their efforts to strengthen the levee
there. it appeared more likely that
break In the immediate future would be
ayerted.

CANTON, China. May 24.-Cantonese
government officials today attributed
recent victories against invading
Kwangsi forces largely to bombing by
Cantonese aviators, both from over the
battle lines and behind the lines at
Wuchow, Kwangsi capital.
Col. w. j. Chang chief of the Can
tonese air force, dropped more than 100
l00-pound bombs on Wuchow during
the past week, most of them with dead
ly effect. Six new planes are en- route
here from the United States to augment
the Canton air force.
The Kwangsi faction has been badly
handicapped through lack of an air
service unit and has offered $4,000
gold to any Canton flyer who will join
them with his plane. None has ac-
cepted.

"You coward you! You you!
Furiously she struck him on the
chest with her clenched fists. "You

Bob staggered backward as she
pushed him toward the door. He
dropped his stick and his hat, and
tried clumsily to recover them. But
Molly had stopped, as he Numbered
about, and threw them contemptu-
ously ahead of him, into the hall.

Solving a Brazilian Mystery.
(New York World.)

When the British explorer Col H. P Fawcett and his two companions disappeared in the remote Amazonan wilderness than three years ago their fate seemed insouble Fawcett had set out for vast wild terra ncognita, roamed by hostile Indians He had sent back letters which deliberately withheld information of his whereabouts because he considered his trail too dangerous to be followed. Deliberately inadvertently, what information he did transmit misleading The savages who swarmed about might kill him and conceal all traces Yet this disappearance has been explained the place where the murder committed found and the criminal himself identified.
 Commander G. M. Dyotts narrative of this, now rising to its climax in The World, is story of de-
 lection under circumstances truly wilder than fiction He had to pick up the long-cod trail of the Faw- cet party and track it by the slightest marks far
 into the interior. He had to search out the Indians with whom Fawcett had been thrown in contact and spy upon them for bits of evidence Suspecting shifty-eyed Anauqua Chief, Aloique, he had to penetrate behind his crcumstantial lies to the truth when he had made morally of Col Fawcetts fate he had to save himself from meeting the same end from the same hands It would seem the stuff of melodrama if it not sober truth It hardly adds extra touch of the meIodramatic to find Commander Dyott writing that there is good req hson to believe that Fawcetts stories of forgotten civilization based fact and that at one time existed in this region entirely different from any other of the South American Continent"

Greater Saskatchewan.
(New York Times.)

Saskatcnewan third in population of the Canao- ian Provinces with an area of 251700 square miles is seeking an outlet to the at Chesterfield lniet on Hudson Bay and expansion north to Coronatlon Gulf, 200 miles beyond the Arctic Circle An ap- plication has been made to the Dominion Govern ment by Premier Gardiner, who says:
 We claim that our natural mineral area
 extends out of the northern part of our
 Province into the territory that we are ask
 ing to be added to the Province. Second the
 natural outlet to the from this mineral
 area to the Hudson Bay is through Ches-
 terheld Inlet.
 The land which Saskatchewan desires to annex is a part of two vast Northwest Territories, which are bounded by Hudson Bay on the east, the Arctic on the north and Yukon the west Manitoba will have something to say about the acquisition of the Chesterfield Inlet region by Saskatchewan, for 1t lies directly north of Manitobas border. The North western Territories known as Mackenzie and Kee- watin would have more rapid development if they were divided among Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta The last also claims mineral resources and bids fair to be rich in oil British Columbia front ing the Pacific, might put in claim for the great Mackenzie River Valley, if there is to be a division of the lake and barren country
 It would to be only fair to give Saskatche- wan access to northern Hudson Bay at Chesterfield Inlet for Manitoba has Port Nelson, which is des- tined to be a railway terminal. At the root of the whole matter is the belief that there may be great deal of mineral wealth above the sxtieth degree of latitude

American relations was creating false in1- pression that these relations were seriously impaired. The difference which resulted in the failure of the Three Power Conference at Geneva was not difference on principle but a difference on the application of an agreed principle The admission of parity was an admission we should have made to no other nation Disagreement sprang from the difficulties of applying the principle of parity to two countries with such divergent naval needs. The difficulties were temporary and they would be solved. The cause of all the talk about Anglo American relations was not that relations were seriously impaired but that we were peculiarly sensitive to any thing which even seemed to deviate from close and warm friendship with the people of the United States.
