Des Moines
River Hits
Record Crest

DIES MONIES R-The raging
Des Moines River roared through
this city today at historic crest
of just over 30 feet-18 feet higher
than its normal flow. But flood
defense officials said I'VE think
we've got it whipped.
A three-day battle, first to raise
the levees and then to hold them
against the pounding waters, was
in its climactic hours. All major
bikes were holding. No lives had
been lost.
The crest was 3Ia feet higher
than the official peak reached in
the disastrous 1947 Des MoineS
flood when major levee gave
way and flooded residential area.
Levee workers continued to be
hampered by sight-seers almost as
much as by the rushing waters.
Last night National Guardsmen
with bayonets shooed back jealous
visitors who swarmed into a criti-
cal levee area.
"They were crawling over sand
bags and ripping holes in them
and getting in the way of trucks, .
said Police 1t. Alva Glasscock. Col
Harold A. Hensler of the Iowa
National Guard added:
People were coming down here
by the thousands. They thought it
was a sideshow."
But guard officials stressed there
was no clash with the sight-seers.
"They were just quietly herded
back to keep them out of the
road" a spokesman said.
Minor breaks in the miles Of
levee system, sand boils and
undermining occurred from time
to time today. Flood officials said
the situation would remain serious
for some "A hours.
Downstream from Des Moines
the city Of Ottumwa prepared fol
q crest Of 1874 to II feet due there
over the weekend. Ottumwa was
ravaged by q 20.2 crest in 194i
but this year lack of rain in the
valley below Des Moines has Great
ed an easier situation. Officials
said they were ready for water
up to Is feet.
Upstream from Des Moines the
river had fallen about three feet
from its crest near Boone anC
us. 80 there was reopened to one
way traffic. us. 8 at Des Moines
still required rerouting due to q
flooded bridge.

CONGRESS
|HICHLICHTS

WASHINGTON R - The Senate
may vote on a Democratic sp0n-
sored move to approve President
Eisenhower's proposal to extend
the Reciprocal Trade Agreemnts
Act for three years and to give
him new tariff-cutting powers.
Twenty-Five Democrats and Sen.
Morse (Ind-0re) are backing this
basic Eisenhower trade proposal
as a substitute for House-passed
bill to extend the trade act for
only one year in its present form.
A final vote on passage also is
possible beore the day is out.
Republican Senate leaders, OPP
posing the substitute, pass the
word that its adoption probably
would kill the 20-year-old trade
program. They argue key COP
House leaders would not accept
it.
FARM-The Senate Agriculture
Committee comes up to a show
down vote on the politically con-
troversial issue of flexible farm
price supports VS.. high rigid props.
Sen. Young (R-ND) predicts the
committee will reject the Eisen-
hover administration program
pegged to flexible supports and
recommend instead another year
OF rigid props for farm prices.
The House Agriculture Commit
tee, already on record 21-8 in favor
of the present system of high level
supports, has virtually finished
drafting general farm legislation
and is about ready to send its
bill to the House for debate.
FOREIGN AID - Some Repub.
lican congressman foresee rough
going for Eisenhower's 31a billion
dollar foreign aid program even
though the House Foreign Affairs
Committee has given it good start
through Congress by approving it
virtually intact.
SOCIAL SECURITY - Secretary
of Welfare Hobby goes before the
Senate Finance Committee to pre-
sent the case for the administra-
tons plan for expansion Of the
social security program.
