FARMS FLOODED
BY MISSISSIPPI
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Mississippi River, swollen to
a stage which may equal a 99-
year record at some places for
the second time in a year, spilled
over crumbling levees today to
flood new acres of Illinois and
Missouri farm lands but with less
disastrous results than in 1943.
Four main levees protecting IL
linois banks of the river went out
as the crest neared. Orders came
from the Army engineers office
to evacuate farm families from
other areas threatened with in
undation.
The flood is expected to crest at
St. Louis at 3S9 feet, the same
reading as last May. At that stage
it exerts damaging pressure on
every levee all the day down the
river to Cairo, Ill.
For farmers on the river side of
the levees this is the third con-
secutive year flood waters have
driven them from their land.
Latest figures from the Midwest
ern Red Cross office at St. Louis
disclosed the floods along the Miss
issippi, Missouri, Arkansa, Illinois
and other rivers have affected
total of $500 miles in
Missouri and Illinois and 6,527
families in Kansas and Oklahoma.

Double-Barreled Congressional
Probe Of Ward Dispute In Sight
BODY TURNS OUT
TO BE ONLY BEEF

Spring fever manifests itself in
various forms. One of the more
common versions among school
boys is playing truant and going
fishing.
Friday several young boys were
enjoying the balmy weather and
fishing on the Cape Fear river
between Navassa and Leland when
they hooked strange catch, which
turned out to be box of decom-
posing flesh and bones. The lads
weren't in any doubt about what
to do.
Several men sitting in a, nearby
construction office were surprised
when a wide-eyed breathless boy
dashed in and yelled, Call the
sheriff. The sheriff of Brunswick
county duly called and impatiently
awaited, arrived and pronounced
the odoriferous catch to be lin

Among the various on-the-spot
speculations were the possibility
that it was black market produce
or it had fallen or been tossed
from a ship.
It is unknown whether the lads
resumed their fishing.
