GOVERNMENT MUST
PAY FLOOD COSTS
Senate Committee Votes
Land Values into Bill
Authorizing Funds

Washington, April 15.-(AP)- The
Senate Commerce Committee voted
nine to four today to have the Fed
eral government absorb all land and
damage OUTLAWS in flood control pro-
jects involved in the $4OO,OOO,0OO ON
nibus bill, and gave indications the
measure would be reported to the Sem
ate tomorrow.
The committee vote added between
$85, 600, 900 and $1O0,OO0,00O to the size
of the bill. Chairman Copeland, Dem
ocrat, New York, said it "gave wings"
to the measure by eliminating opposi-
ton of a number who had protested
that the provision of the bill that
states and local communities bear
land damage costs made the project
impossible Of completion
Today's action followed by only a
day submission by the army engineers
of a new list of about $85, 100000
worth of projects. They tentatively
were included in the bill.
Copeland predicted final committee
action tomorrow. This would put it
before the Senate for an expected bat
tie with many senators whose prof.
ects were not included.

Raleigh, April 15.-Some Of the lar
are planning to sell them in the near
future, especially if the likelihood
grows that DR.. Ralph w. Mcdonald
will be the Democratic nominee for
governor, it was learned here today
from a reliable source. There are two
reasons for this, as follows:
l. North Carolina bonds are now
selling at the highest prices in many
years, due to the fact that the State
now has balanced budget, has no
unfunded debt and has been operating
on a cash basis for the past three
years or more.
z. If Mcdonald should he nominated
for governor, the State bonds are ex-
pected to decline sharply, in which
case the present owners could re-pur-
chase them at much lower prices and
thus take a large profit.
There is no doubt that the prices
of North Carolina bonds will drop
nominated, since there is a decided
lack of confidence in financial circles
In McDonald's proposed taxation pro-
gram" one holder of a good sized
block of State bonds said here today.
This means that if Mcdonald con-
tinues to gain as some now think he
is, that a great many people will start
selling their bonds even before the
primary in order to get the benefit OF
present prices. They also know that
if Mcdonald should be nominated the
prices will go still lower, so that they
could buy these bonds back if they
