Nebraska Rivers Rise
Again After Tornadoes
Rip Across Farms
'Rx the Assasiatsd Pra.,

OMAHA, July 17.-Nebraskans,
who seldom get done mopping up
in the wake of weather violence,
were at it again today.
Two tornadoes ripped across
sections Of rural Nebraska late
Saturday. On their heels came
drenching rains and hail.
The rain, of which there was
nearly S inches in places, deluged
the East Central Nebraska area
near York where just week be-
fore 1S inches of rain brought
death-dealing floods.
But so far, the flooding there,
and at other points hard hit by
the downpour, has been minor.
At Crete, Nebr., where the Big
Blue River reached record levels
after last weeks rain, the river
was overf1owing into a low-lying
amusement park.
Easements Flooded in Fremont.
The river rose 2 inches Satur-
day night and 6 more yesterday.
Last night it stood at 1884 feet,
about 1la feet lower than the
point at which serious flooding is
likely.
In Fremont, Nebraska's sixth
largest city which is 80 miles
west of Omaha, Easements were
flooded after a 4h-inch deluge.
One of the tornadoes skinned
acrosS-country in the York area,
damaging several farms.
The other. carrying more of
punch, leveled half dozen farms
and a schoolhouse. slightly injured
six persons, and left fields lit
tered with dead livestock. 1t
struck near Oakland, Nebr., so
miles northwest of Omaha.
Crops Damaged Severely.
Oakland Photographer Clio
Packwood said the wind-ripped
area looked like "a battlefield,
only substituting cattle for SOL
diers. Everything was leveled.
Dead cattle were strewn every
where you looked. Only rubble
Remained where houses and farm
buildings had stood. Trees were
splintered like they'd been hit by
artillery Shells"
Hail, which accompanied the
twister and some of the rains,
eaused severe crop damage.

NEW YORK, July 17.-Mary

gresS were taking note of recently
announced increases in the price
of some foods, including bread.
Senator Gillette, Democrat, of
Iowa, for one. said attempts to
profit from the war scare may
bring controls"
Representative Klein, Demo-
crat, of New York noted that
false rumors of shortages were
inducing volume buying and
boarding. He said he would ask
for an investigation of high living
costs and what he described as
''prof1teering" by bakers and
dairies soaking the consumer
without conscience"
More Spending Expected.
President Truman is expected
to announce in his message that
increased military spending will
be needed to activate, arm and
equip new troops for the stern
task of combating the powerful
Communist columns in Korea.
Just how much more defense
money will be needed has not
been disclosed, since the Defense
Department has not been able to
estimate what the Korean stu
alton would require.
This estimate is expected to be
made soon since Gen. Lawton
Collins, Army Chief of Staff, and
Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg. chief of
the Air Forces. have returned
from a speedy trip to Tokyo for
conference with Gen. Macarthur
and hurried visit to the Korean
front.
The visit, it was understood.
was occasioned by desire to OBJ
tain clarifying picture of what
Gen. Macarthur will need in the
way of men, supplies and equip
ment for countering the Com
muniSt thrust.
Bigger Funds Likely.
Estimates of new military ap-
preparations run all the way from
So billion to $6 billion dollars,
and there was little doubt that
Congress would go along with such
requests.
Senator Bridges. Republican, of
New Hampshire, said Congress
will vote to give the Armed Serv-
ices "any money they need" But
he added that they will have ''to
justify the funds and use the
money better than they have in
the past"
Senator Douglas, Democrat, of
Illinois said Congress should pro-
vide mot far from $5 billion" for
the Korean fighting if the situa-
ton does not improve within the
next two weeks.
The message also is expected to
settle speculation about a possible
Gallup of six to nine National
Guard divisions as well as a num-
ber OF reservists and the reactiva-
ton of two or more regular Army
divisions.
The controls likely to be sought
by the President were described
in official circles as "a middle-of-
the road" course with transition
plan of voluntary distribution of
steel to essential users such as
was practiced in 1948. If this
proved inadequate in meeting the
emergency. the President then
could make the ALLEGATION system
mandatory.
