HARTFORD FACES
CRISIS IN FLOOD
Rising Waters Threaten
Complete Shutdown of
Power Plant.

Copyright. 1896. by the Associated Pressl
HARTFORD, Conn, March 90
The rising flood waters Of the Con-
necticut River brought Hartford face
to face today with possible sus-
pension of all business activity. City
engineers estimated that $500 acres
of the capital city, or approximately
Is per cent, was inundated.
Virtually the entire power supply
and telephone communication systems
were paralyzed.
Kenneth F. Applegate, general man.
ager of the Hartford Electric Light Co,
said the main plant in the South
Meadows could not stand more than
two additional feet of water. The
water stood slightly over IS feet at the
plant at 10 am, having seeped
| through heavy walls.
Applegate added if the waters con-
tinued to rise, the plant may stop at
any moment.
He said: IF that happens, we don't
know what We'll do. We are in a
minute-b minute crisis"
Homes Are Abandoned.
Hundreds of homes were aboudoned
here and in East Hartford. River
front streets were under many feet of
water, which inundated large whole
sale business district and several fac
tories.
National Guardsmen patroled stricken
areas and aided in evacuating resi-
dents.
Hundreds of insurance company en-
ployes living in suburban communities
across the river were unable to reach
their homes last night when the city's
only bridge was closed
The Coast Guard aided other food
relief agencies. More than 100 per-
sons were removed from inundated
areas by one cutter alone.
Other patrol boats were sent to
find two huge oil storage tanks which
broke from their moorings near the
river in East Hartford and hoated
downstream, a potential threat to a
highway bridge in Middletown.
They had orders to moor the tanks
If possible or to sink them with gun.
fire. A third tank which broke away
was located and anchored in a cove
at Wethersfeld.
River Goes Over Dixie.
The river went over the top Of
dixie built to protect the Brainard
Field Airport and the South Meadows
section OF Hartford after the 1927
flood
Hartfords principal business and
residential areas were well above wa
ter, but the flood crippled the entire
city. The Hartford Electric Light Co.
and the Southern New England Tele-
phone Co. struggled unsuccessfully to
maintain complete service.

relief fund of the American Red Cross,
the District of Columbia Chapter Of
the Red Cross today was providing

Of dozens of homeless families.
Temporary shelter was found for

Thirty-first and M streets, and at the
Washington Boys Club, 230 C street.
Colored families driven from lowland

District chapter officials today urged
that they be notified at once of any
other flood-disposSessed families IN
need Of Red Cross assistance. Their
attention has been called, they said
to groups Of houses hastily vacated IN
sections skirting the river as the river
rose yesterday. They wish to be sure
that all of these families have been

tionaI Park Service.

The flood control dixie in the rear
of the Navy and Munitions Buildings
will be removed Immediately.
This was decided shortly before
noon today at meeting of National
Park Service officials in the Interior
Department. Congress will be asked to
appropriate a deficiency fund to reim-
burse the National Capital Parks for
the dixie construction, on which the
authorities estimated that S20,0 900 In
supplies and rental equipment has
been expended.
Situation Discussed.
C. Marshall Finnan, superintendent
of the National Capital Parks, partici-
pated in the meeting, at which the
flood damage situation here was gone
over and steps to be taken to remove
the dixie were considered.
Finnan was instructed to start i'm
mediately on removal of the dixie
with emergency and regular labor.
Emergency labor was interpreted to
mean C. c. C. and w. p. A. employees.
1T is estimated that the dixie will
be removed by the middle of next
week, when rehabilitation of the park
area in the rear Of the Navy and
Munitions Buildings can be under
taken. provided that additional funds
can be secured" said an official Ma
tional Park Service announcement.
Damage Survey Incomplete.

wrought to the Washington park sys-
tenn has not been completed, officials
said, but considerable damage" to

No estimate of damage done along
the Mount Vernon Memorial High
way from the Highway Bridge to
Alexandria, Va, has yet been made.
The authorities said that every effort
will be made to clean up the situation
as soon as possible.

This year the gag was varied only
slightly. While Mr.. Roosevelt was
slowly composing a request for an
other sl.500,0O0.0O0. Harry began
issuing orders proposing to cut, but
not actually cutting, people of w. p.
A. rolls. For instance, the cut ordered
in Illinois required curtailment of
approximately 20 per cent by June 80.
This year and last, the effect was
to bring Democratic politicos down on
Congress from everywhere. They
howled about what a bad thing it was
to curtail. especially in this, an elec-
ton year For the past two weeks
they have fretted Congressman into
a state of mind where the legislators
would be glad to approve anything
Mr.. Roosevelt asked. without serious
question.
Through it all, Mr.. Hopkins main
tained silence and straight face.
New Frill Added.
A slightly new sideline frill was
added this year For example. the
District of Columbia Welfare Board
received private orders a week ago to
cut the local relief rolls by two-thirds.
This impoSsibility was suggested just
few days before Mr. Roosevelts
message went to Congress.
It had an alarming effect on all the
good budget-balancers hereabouts.
They saw visions Of disorders and
riots. Not only that, but the relief
money is sustaining many business
lines whose leaders envisioned the
possibility Of this business being swept
away.
The pressure they brought on
Congress was stronger than that OF
the soldiers lobby for the bonus,
although almost entirely under the
surface. Thus, these advocates Of
balanced budget were squeezed right
out OF their position. The demand for
adequate relief became almost unani-
nous hereabouts. The economy
psychology of the public was turned
entirely around for the occasion.
These shrewd inside maneuvers
would be a minor phase of an i'm
portant matter If any one hereabouts
really thought that a substantial cur
tailment Of relief Is seriously intended.
No one does.
Expect More Spending.
The politicos will tell you fatty
there cannot be a curtailment before
election. In fact they expect an ac-
celeration of relief expenditures be-
fore November. Some New Dealers
readily confess that they would not
be astonished. if such thing hap
pened. To show you how it can be
done: Mr.. Roosevelt's $500 .00o, 900
additional appropriation is being re-
quested for the fiscal year beginning
July l.
1t will be augmented by an untold
amount Of appropriations left over
from this fiscal year. This combined
unknown amount is far more than
enough to carry on for seven months
at rate of expenditure much higher
than the existing rate. BY that time
the election will be over. Congress will
be back, 1t will be February again,
and any deficiency for the remainder
of the fiscal year can easily be OBJ
tanned.

1t is like the old apple example
which teachers used. Mr.. Roosevelt
has an unknown quantity of relief
apples in his pocket. He Is asking
Congress for one and a half billion
more. No one can possibly answer
how many apples that is, but every
one knows it Is enough. Any pupil
will be correct who says: No voter
will be permitted to go hungry.
Note.-The conference of mayors
demanded s2,340, 100000 as q bed
rock minimum Federal relief appro-
priation. This figure is as good a
guess as any as to what actually will
be spent.
Those who read betpeen the
lines OF Mr.. Roosepelt's message
Sa,o an dnsDer to three Republican
presidential possibilities. The dig
at Gou. Ldndon of Kansas iuas
barely concealed in a generality
about the "tew States" which shhk
relief responsibilities. But the
President disclosed more indirectly
Dhdt lDds on his mind about SEND
tor BorGh's antitrust issue by
promising enforcement. In q tpay,
also, he said ,Dhat he thought about
Mr.. Hoouer's pet issue of local re-
lief. He denoted some alteration to
other Hooper beliefs.
The references seemed to confirm
the story current in congressional
cloak rooms that Mr.. Roosevelt ex-
poets his opponent to be one of those
three men.
When Mr.. Roosevelt was preparing
his relief message. he called upon
three different Government bureaus
to submit confidential estimates sof
unemployment. They did. and thereby
caused q presidential headache. The
three guesses were 80 far apart a. 10

peated reports from vell-informed
sources that Hagood might answer
the discipline imposed on him for his
remarks by entering politics In South
Carolina, his native State.
Byrnes Doubts Opposition.
A report that he might possibly op-
pose Senator Byrnes, Democrat, of
South Carolina, q stanch admins
tration man who Is up for reelection,
brought from the South Carolinian a
statement that he considered this
highly unlikely. Byrnes was one Of
the generals most active defenders.
II don't think there is anything to
that at ALL" said Byrnes. when asked
about the report. The general hasn't
any such idea in his head"
Adding that he had talked to him
by long-distance telephone only yes
terday, the Senator said he thought
Hagood's principal desire was TO OBJ
tain reinstatement in some active posi-
ton.
During the furore in Congress when
Republican Senators and Representa-
tives repeatedly attacked the Roosevelt
administration for removing Hagood
from his command, charging that his
right of free speech" was being i'm
paired, Byrnes appealed personally
both to Secretary of W. Dern and
the White House.

he already had received encouraging
replies from chapters throughout the
country, and that more than the
amount necessary probably would be
forthcoming within a few days.
1t was revealed at the White House
today that the Federal Governments s
relief plans had been mapped in ad-
vance by the President and adminiS-
tration assistants more than q year
ago Since then surveys have been
made for anticipated food-relief work
in various sections
1t was explained further that less
than a month ago the President sent
memorandum to A. B. Cammerer,
director of the National Park Service,
and other administration officials
whose agencies would be directly or
indirectly concerned in the event of a
flood emergency.
In this Mr.. Roosevelt was repre-
sented as having warned these Off
cialS to be prepared for great floods
and to make tentative plans for i'm
mediate relief work.
He had gained frst-hand knowl-
edge Of the situation here by making
a motor tour yesterday Of the flooded
downtown area. A sight Of the raging
Potomac brought from him the amazed
exclamation: Look at that river go!"
Red Cross Mobilizes Reserves.
The far-flung Red Cross organiza-
ton today was mobilizing more disaster
reserves.
The Works Progress Administration
was directing an army of $4,000 men
in flood areas. The Post Office De-
partment. moving on many fronts to
get the mails through, was hampered
by washouts, shattered flying sched-
ules and flooded air fields
Army. Navy, Coast Guard, C. C. c.,
w. P. A, and the Public Health Serv-
ice went into action wherever needed.
Administrator Harry L. Hopkins
said $4,000 men were fighting the
floods and I'VE will do whatever needs
to be done"
The Red Cross also announced that
six big Army bombers would leave
Langley Field today and carry 5000
pounds of food and medical supplies
from Aberdeen, Md, to Remove, Pa,
isolated and in distress.
In the Senate flood aid was ad-
vancing on three fronts. Senator
Davis. Republican, of Pennsylvania,
yesterday introduced the resolution to
authorize the President to turn $5,-
600, 900 Of work-relief funds over to
the Red Cross for flood aid.
Immediately afterward, Senator
Guffey, Democrat, of Pennsylvania,
introduced the resolution to direct the
President to make $4,000, 900 of relief
funds available for flood work in his
State.
In third quarter, the Senate Com
merce Committee at special meet
ing discussed the advisability of re-
viving the $500, ,O00, 900 food control
authorization bill, killed last session
by filibuster. Late in the day the
committee decided this fund should
be cut in half, and called on the War
Department to help work out quickly
q $3c0, 900. 900 bill, with view to
getting action at this session.
In the event he leaves tomorrow,
Mr.. Roosevelt will follow his original
schedule to 60 to his Warm Springs,
