ICE IN MISSOURI
RIVER EXPECTED
TO BREAK UP soon
O. w. Roberts,, Federal Meteor.
o|ogist, Reports Big Muddy
Has Risen a Foot

Ice in the Missouri river here Is ex.
pected to move out in the next few
days, according to o. w. Roberts, fed
eral meteorologist stationed In Bis
marck.
Ice began to break up in spots at
1880 a. m. Tuesday, but reports from
points downstream from here In
dicated Tuesday morning that It
still was holding there. It also Is con-
tinuing to hold several miles north
of the capital city.
The ice sheet, which was never
more than 30 inches thick at any time
this winter, has grown thin and rot
ten with several open spots of water
on the south side OF the Memorial
highway bridge. No trouble Is ex-
pected in ice gorges south OF here
which caused a flood here two years
ago.
The Heart river partially broken UP
now, which empties into the Missouri
q few miles south Of Mandan, Is ex-
pected to drop rapidly as soon as the
Missouri ice moves out. Since Sat
urday the Missouri river has risen
more than a foot.
The Missouri, refusing to break up
last year, backed up the water Of the
Heart, overlooking the southern por-
lions Of Mandan and paralyzing traf-
fic between Bismarck and Mandan.
Ice broke up in the Missouri April 2
last year.

In President Race

Baltimore, Nd, March 24.-(R
Governor Richie was requested
to become q candidate for presi-

resolution adopted by the city
council Monday night. Approval
Of the measure, similar to one

A Republican member Of the
council and now a candidate for

A proposal substituting "a son
of Maryland" for the governors
name, failed to receive approval.
