BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 14.-Storms and
floods dashed widely separated por-
lions of the nation today, carrying
the toll of death suffering and prop
erty damage to foreboding levels
and threatening to assume disaster
proportions in many places.
The gravest menace was in the
rearing waters of streams and rivers
in the Mississippi valley tributary
to the Mississippi. Swollen by heavy
and repeated rains and the run
away waters from snow-blanketed
northern states, rivers flung leveeS
aside and poured over thousands OF
acres of agricultural lands. Hun
dreds were homeless and being shell
tered in communities above the
clutch of the flood.
The far west, from the Sierra
Ne"adas to the Rocky mountains,
was a desert of snow, heaped into
deep drifts by billiards. and tena-
cious because of icy gales. Scores Of
persons were marooned and several
we're lost in the storm harasSed ter
Tjtory.
Some sixty had been killed as a
result of the storm since it began
last week. Hope had waned for
Maury Graham. Western Air Express
air mail pilot. unreported since he
took off in a snow storm Friday
from Les Vegas, New, on flight to
Salt Lake City, Utah. Search for

the 5hree usual air lanes between the
two cities and ground parties toiling
through drift-choked canyons.
Southern Illinois and Indiana.
eastern Arkansas, Kentucky, west
ern Tennessee and northern Mis-
Sissippi were in the clutch Of floods.
Mort than 200 families in western
| Tennessee had fed before the rush
of angry waters and 100 families be-
tween Cairo, Ill, and Hickman
Bluffs, KY, had been driven from
the home in the lowlands.

disaster of 1913 confronted Indiana.
Thousands of dollars damage had
resulted, suffering was widespread
and the worst was yet to come.
Arkansas and Mississippi streams
felt the touch of the descending
torrent. Tse Mississippi itself was
rising slowly at Memphis, but had
not caused serious concern.
More rains were forecast for to-
day along the lower reaches of the
Ohio river, where more than ten
inches had fallen recently. That
burden, added to the swelling tide
from melting snow farther up the
valley, was expected to place the
situation out of control.
Ferry service between Evansville,
Ind, and Henderson, KY, had been
made virtually impossible by the
rampaging river.

Continue Probe of
Los Angeles Blast

Los Angeles, Oct. 16.-(P-Fire and
police authorities today continued
their Investigation Of the explosion
which virtually wrecked the History
garment capitol building and in
jured AZ persons here yesterday but
were inclined to believe the blast was
an accident rather than sabotage.
Meanwhile the 40 injured passersby
and garment workers were reported
recovering.
While sabotage at first was sus-
pected, as the investigation prog
ressed the authorities leaned toward
conviction that the explosion was
caused by the accidental ignition of
Illuminating gas, which they said had
been seeping through the building for
weeks.
The estimate of damage, increasing
with completion of surveys, mounted
to $4,000 00 Originally it was
81 ,000, 600.

conclusion of the work of the League

commission will be urged by the

A number of other nations are un-

work of the commission in order that
some formula for disarmament may
be laid before the league assembly.
One proposal, which is favored
widely but which will be opposed by
the United States SO far as its own
land and sea forces are concerned.
is hat for budgetary limitation. I'm
der this method, expenditures for
ornaments would be limited as we'll
as the numerical strength of service.
The contention of the United States
will be that the proportionate cost of
maintaining the services here is much
higher than in other countries. so a
budgetary limitation would restrict
unduly Americas land, sea or air
forces. 1t will also be emphasized
the United States gives full pub
licity to the amount of money spent
annually on its fighting forces.
The delegation is expected to op-
pose emphatically any limitation
formula which would restrict COM

RAILROADREVENUE
INVOLVED IN CASE
IN SUPREME court
Carriers Covering Nearly a Third
Of Country Are interest
ed in Action

Washington. Oct. 18.-tP9-Placed
at the head Of the list for argument
next week on the supreme court
docket is a case affecting revenue OF
railroads covering nearly a third OF
the country.
Twenty : six southwestern carriers
are seeking to have set aside the in
terstate commerce commission order
of June, 1929, that joint rates be-
tween certain carriers in the south
west and western trunk line territory,
be readjusted in favor Of the western
trunk lire territory, which includes
Iowa. Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Mis-
souri,. Wisconsin. northern Missouri
and the upper peninsula of Michigan.
The latter would benefit under the
order.
Only q of the 81 Class-One carri-
ers in southwestern territory which
includes Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma,
Louisiana, west of the Mississippi
river, and southern Missouri, would
be affected by the readjustment All
these named are parties to the suit
brought in the name Of the Beau
mont, Sour Lake and Western rail-
road.
The commission is attacked spe-
officially on the ground that it ex-
ceeded statutory authority in basing
the order upon group conditions
among the railrods involved The
southwestern roads contend the law
requires that conditions and needs OF
each carrier be considered in fixing
joint rates and that, in this case, the
commission employed an average.
The effect of the order, they con-
tend, would be to take approximately
So. OOO, 900 in annual revenue from
roads in the southwest, sone OF
which they say operate at a deficit.
and give it to the western group.
some of which are held to be unus
ually prosperous.
The commission is joined by the
western trunk line roads, in defend
ing the fairness of the rates and the
legality of methods used.
A three-judge federal court IN the
western district of Missouri sustained
the order, and the case was then APP
pealed to the supreme court.
