River RObs
Japanese
OF Victory
Entire Plan of
Campaign Doomed
.ByHuse Flood

SHANGHAI, Sunday June
19( UP)-Foreign observers
today said that millions may
be driven from their homes,
an untold amout of property
destroyed and Japan's entire north
China campaign disarranged by the
mighty flood of the Yellow river.
japanese military authorities re-
ported that despite a slight drop
in the river there was little chance
of harnessing it again for some
time.
With this catastrophe prospect in
view the international famine relief
commission estimated that 50,OO0,-
600 persons might be left homeless
within 30 days.
ToIrential rains poured down ON
the bread plains of north-central
China. Japanese authorities esti-
mated that floods, including those
of the Yellow and smaller rivers,
canal and lakes, were spreading
over more than 1856 square miles
day.
Cut Off Capital
The Yangtse, running northward
and westward through central
China. also was on the rise. Flood
experts predicted that it, along with
the floods to the north, soon would
isolate the Chinese provisional capt.
tai of HankoW.
Foreign military observers, digest
ing all the reports of the floods,
believed that with the isolation of
Hankow Japan might be forced to
abandon her northern campaign
and punge into costly offensive
in southern China.
japanese military authorities said
they were unable to check the rivers
rampage.
The waters continued to rise as
torrential rains beat down on all
sections of north central China,
bringing a 44-foot rise in the river
during the past two days.
The International Famine Relief
commission gave gloomy predic-
ton for the future. declaring itself
at loss to do anything because
of the lack of funds and inability
to operate in war zones behind the
Japanese lines.
Fifty million persons will be
homeless within month unless the
floods are controlled said j. E.
Baker, director of lie commission.

yesterday, District Attorney Otis
Babcock announced the "sky is now
the limit in prosecuting this inves-
tigation."
Meanwhile, Louis r. Lurie, San
Francisco realtor, answered charges
made by Samish's attorney. John
Francis Neylan, that Lurie attempt
ed to arrange a meeting with his
client to quash the inquiry.
Lurie branded the statement as
gross deviation from fact, saying
he attempted to call Samish con-
corning the rental of offices in one
of the Lurie buildings, which Samish
occupied
Gov. Merriam also replied to Ney-
lan'S statement, in which the at
torney said SamiSh would disclose
relations between Merriam and
Lurie at the grand jury investiga-
tion.
when pig is caught in a gate,
he always SquealS," Merriam ccun-
tered, in inviting investigations into
his administration. He offered to
open his personal records to the
jury.
When SamiSh gave his support
to me four years ago, he thought
he was buying something" the gov
ernor said. when l refused to
sign bills and make appointments
he desired, he became an opponent" :"
Special Prosecutor George Nj.
Naus, assisting Babcock in the in
quiry, said Samish can take his
choice between being either a per-
jurer or witness that can turn
