By Third Flood OF Month
By the Associofed Press

DES MONIES, June 23.-The third
flood this month appeared to be
headed down the Des Moines and
Raccoon Rivers today after rains of
over 5 inches poured into their head
waters yesterday.
The Weather Bureau at Des
Moines said the rains would cause
immediate severe floods in the areas
where they fell. and less severe
floods on the Raccoon, and Des
Moines Rivers downstream to Van
Meter and Des Moines, during the
next three to five days"
The showers appeared to be NOV
ing eastward. and might bring new
flood crests to Eastern Iowa rivers
later in the week, S. E. Decker of
the Weather Bureau said.
Flood waters swept Fort Dodge,
Carroll, Cherokee and Rockwell City
in the northern part of low. and
Council Bluffs in the west, and rains
of varying violence were reported
throughout Northwest Iowa. The
Weather Bureau warned that more
water might be heading down the
Nishnabotna River to bring new
floods to Hamburg, in Southwest
Iowa. Fort Dodge, a city of $4,000,
was without power or water this
morning and families were being
evacuated from low areas as the Des
Moines River rose at the rate of
more than foot an hour.

s. Blast Victims Buried
In Texas City Mass Rites
By the Associated Press

TEXAS CITY, Tex, June 23.-
Texas City today returned to its
tremendous job of reconstruction,
after pausing briefly, Ct days after
the April explosion-fi disaster, to
bury its unidentified dead.
Sixty three coffns, each con-
tanning a charred or broken body,
were lowered into six trench-llke
graves yesterday at a small memo
rial cemetery on the citys out
skirts opposite the wrecked water
front area.
Among the 1900 persons attend
ing the all-faith services were rela-
tiyes and friends of the nearly 100
persons still listed as missing from
the explosion disaster. Many were
relatives who already had identified
and claimed 405 bodies of other
victims
Oficials of one of the most severe
ly damaged plants were reported
ready to announce signing of re-
construction contracts running into
millions of dollars.
There were few tears yesterday
during the 2o-minute rites in which
five clergymen read services OF their
faiths. After the benediction, how
ever, several mothers and wives of
missing victims collapsed and were
given first aid.
The quiet crowd stood patiently In
the hot sun during a tWo-hour de-
lay caused by late arrival of the
bodies from the Camp Wallace
morgue. Only 81 .hearses were avail
able to carry the coffins over the
15-mile route from the Camp Wal
lace morgue to the cemetery, and
II Of them had to make second
trip.

Add FL krim Says France
Broke Surrender Promise
BY the A..oeio.sd Pres,

CAIRO, June 23.-The Moorish
Office quoted Add Ell Krim today as
saying that France had violated a
pledge of safety given to the Nor
ocean chieftain to win his sur
render in 1925 at the end OF the
Riff rebellion.
Add Ell Krim. exiled to Reunion
Island in the Indian Ocean after
his surrender, was being taken to
new home on the French Riviera
when he left his ship at Port
Said May 81 and said he planned
to live in Egypt. His action drew
criticism from the French.
The statement the Moorish Of
fee attributed to the Riff leader
replied to this criticism by declar-
ing that France herself had "vio-
lated human ideals" Add Ell Krim
was quoted as saying that France
asked him to surrender to her
rather than to Spain, her ally
against the Riffs, and gave q
written pledge Of safety"
"As soon as fell in her hands,
his reported statement read, "the
pledge proved ink on paper and
instead of treating me as I treated
her war prisoners, I was not only
imprisoned but also sent to exile
France also violated pledge to my
country"

importance Of Radar,
Radio in Navigation
Stressed al Institute

The new and growing Importance
of radar and radio In air and water
navigation was reflected today in
opening papers read before the In
stitute of Navigation's third annual
meeting at the Hotel Statler.
About $50 military and civilian
scientists and engineers registered
this morning for the two-day ses-
sion.
1t. Comdr. j. J. Canavan, Mari
time Service electronics training off,
Ger, said programs for training op-
orators and maintenance men for
maritime radar and other naviga-
tional aids have not kept up with
progress in technical equipment.
Commodore G. G. McLintock, spe-
cial assistant to the commandant
of the Maritime Service. reported
the results of a recent international
meeting on marine radio and air
navigation. The meeting, he said,
pointed the way to a worldwide
establishment of a system of navi-
gational aids, but because of the
newness of radar it did not believe
use of it on ships should be made
compulsory at this time.
Commissioner e. M. Webster of
the Federal Communications Com
mission presided at this mornings
session.

Freeman Well Enough
To Testify Tomorrow
In Court, Judge Told
By Robert K. Walsh

Justice Henry A. Schweinhaut was
notified in District Court today that
Joseph F. Freeman probably will be
able to appear in court tomorrow to
complete testimony he was giving
last week when he collapsed on the
witness stand at the war bribe trial
of former Representative Andrew j.
M ay and Henry and Murray Cars
son.
"A report from a heart specialist,
sent by the Justice Department to
ex anime Freeman at Doctors Hos
pital, indicated the former Wash
in gton agent of the Carson NUM-
tions combine is sufficiently i'm
proved to resume the stand.
Freeman's attorney, Austin F.
Canfield, also told the court Free
man wants to testify In court rather
than have his testimony taken by
attorneys in the presence of Justice
Schweinhaut at the hospital.
The Government is seeking to
prove its charge that May took more
than $4,000 In bribes from the
Carson brothers in return for serv-
ives to them while he was chairman
of the House Military Affairs Com
mittee.
Jury Excused Until Tomorrow.
Justice Schweinhaut dismissed
the jury this afternoon until tomor-
row morning. He announced that
most of Wednesday would be taken
up by motions by Government and
defense counsels and that closing
arguments would begin Thursday
Each side has been allotted a maxi
mum of IL hours. This indicated
the case might not go to the jury
before next Monday.
Special Prosecutor william Pals
ley closed the Governments rebut-
tai by calling two FBI agents and
introducing a document which ap-
parently contradicted earlier testi-
mony by Henry Carson.
Carson testified earlier that he
did not give to Brig. Gen. Thomas
S. Hammond, ordnance department
chief in the Chicago district, let
ter of introduction sent to Carson
by 1t. Gen. Levin H. Campbell, chief
of ordnance.
Letter introduced.
The Government today introduced
a letter signed by Gen. Hammond,
stating that Carson had left the
letter at his Office in 1943. This was
the letter in which Gen. Campbell
informed Gen. Hammond that he
was introducing Carson at the re-
quest of May.
Mr.. Paisley had planned to call
Representative Buckley, Democrat
of New York, as a witness today
He announced, however, that Mr.
Buckley went to New York last Fri
day and was not expected to return
until tomorrow. Mr.. Paisley indi-
Gated he probably would not call the
New York Representative unless
Freeman's testimony makes such
action necessary.

Jap Whaling Fleet
Protested by Britain
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, June 23.-A Foreign
Office spokesman said today that
Britain had protested to the United
States against American authorize
ton of a new Japanese whaling
expedition to the Antarctic:
Britain fears, he said, that a Japa-
nese whaling feet might one day
become the basis Of a new navy"
Additionally, the spokesman said,
Britain deems it too early for the
Japanese flag to appear on the high
seas, presumably because the Japa-
nese peace treaty has not yet been
written.
The spokesman said Britain sub
mitted series of objections to the
State Department after the Japa-
nese were allowed to send out whale
hunters last summer.
These objections later were
waived" he said, after the United
States Government promised there
would be prior consultation with
Allied states interested before a
second authorization was granted to
the japanese.
British objections apparently were
ignored, the spokesman said, and
authority was given for a second
expedition despite the previous
understanding that there would be
prior consultation"
Britain thereupon protested
against the United States action
two weeks ago in note that drew
attention to what tho British
deemed to be broken promise.
British and Norwegian seamen's S
groups adopted yesterday resolu-
ton urging their governments to
take steps to exclude the Japanese
from all future participation IN
whaling"
Another resolution urged the two
governments to resist all claims
calculated to enable Germany to
re-enter the whaling industry"
cANBERRA, ] June % P.-A

today that Australia was consider
ing asking Gen. Macarthur to re-
fuse permission for any further
