PRESIDENT ASKS
 RED CROSS HELP
Continued from Page 1.)

officials worked at top speed to answer hundreds of frantic appeals for aid in relieving flood distress and evacuating families endangered by high water.
 After a conference with special committee or department heads appointed to deal with the flood problem, President Roosevelt issued the following proclamation:
 His Appeal to People
 ITO the people of the United States:
 Flood waters raging throughout II states have driven 100000 people from their homes, with every indi- cation that this number may be materially increased within the next 24 hours. Tn this grave emergency the homeless are turning to our great national relief agency, the American Red Cross, for food, cloth- ing, shelter and medical care.
 ITO enable the Red Cross to meet this immediate obligation and to continue to carry the burden of car- ing for these unfortunate men, women and chilren until their homes are restored and they can return to normal living conditions, it is necessary that minimum re- lief fund of $3OO0,0 900 be raised as promptly as possible.
 "As President of the United States and as President of the American Red Cross, am, therefore, urging our people to contribute promptly and most generously so that suffi- cient funds may be available for the relief Of these thousands of your homeless fellow citizens. I am con- fident that in the face of this great need your response will be as im- mediate and as generous as has ale ways been the case when the Red Gross has acted as your agent in the relief of human suffering"

Binghamton, N. Y. March 19.- (UP)-Heavy rains beat down on hood-stricken Binghamton again to- day, carrying threats of greater dis aster, as workers labored to restore the water supply to the city's 76,000 inhabitants.
 Flood waters from the surging Susquehanna river forced suspen- sion of operations in the Bingham ton waterworks this morning and within a short time the last reser- yoir was completely drained.
 The rain. which turned to sleet for a short time. came as relief workers penetrated the stricken zone to search evacuated houses for pos- sible bodies.
 Up to 1 p. m. police reported no fatalities but said several persons

HOFFMAN WANTS
 TO SEE COND0N

Trenton, N. J., March 19.-(UP). - Gov. Harold C.. Hoffman said to- day he is trying to arrange con- ference with pr. John F. Condon, intermediary in the Lindbergh kid naping and star witness for the state in sending Bruno Richard Haupt- mann to the death house for the child's murder.
 The conference probably will be in New York, the governor said. He will seek a stenographic record of the meeting.
 The governor has received piece of wood said to have been taken from ladder which Abraham Samuelson, Bronx cabinet maker claims he made for Hauptmann. If the wood is classified as the same kind from which the kidnap ladder was made 1t will upset the theory the wood for the kidnap ladder came from Hauptmtnn's attic and the Kidnapping was a single-handed job, the governor said.

TRAIN SERVICE
 WAS SUSPENDED

Boston, March 19-(Up)-Train service on the Bostonl & Maine rail- road suspended today at several New England points because of flood con- ditions.

 On the New Hampshire division, trains were running from Boston only to Nashua, N. H. It was doubt- full that service would be extended beyond Concord, N. H., either to White River Junction, Vt., or to Woodsville, N. H.

The three conferred secretly early this Dnorning somewhere between Brad- enton and Sarasota"
 Davis, who denied that he ever Threatened ito punch Dizzy's nose when he steps into the clubhouse . eeturned to Bradenton and told the United Press about the meeting.
 He said that Hickey asked Dean about his refusal to pitch to Davis because poor judgment on the lat ter's part was supposed to have cost Dizzy several victories last year.
 Give me ball and give Davis 8 glove" Dig said, "and I'll show you whether or not I'll pitch to him."
 He then signed a paper, the gist of which: "I'll pitch to anybody so long as 1t will bring St. Louis pen- i1ant."
 Branch Hickey, Cardinal vice president, brought Dean and Davis together today and both players em- braced each other, shook hands and agreed that there was nothing to their battle.
 Rickey's success in bringing the two together indicated that Dean is certain to sign soon. It was learned that he and Dizzy began a confer ence somewhere in Bradenton to- day, a meeting certain to end with Beans signature on St. Louis cpntract.
