Airplane Photograph of Great Ice Jam In Missouri River Below Sioux City.
AVIATOR RAY SHIFFLETT.
LOOKING UP “OLD MUDDY” FROM NEAR SERGEANT BLUFF.
This photograph, taken by A. R. Mills, Tribune staff photographer, from an. airplane
piloted by Ray Shifflett, Sioux City aviator and member of The Tribune “Flying Circus,”
shows in the foreground the end of the great Missouri river ice jam about two and one-half
miles southwest of Sergeant Bluff. This jam was the direct cause of the flooding of thousands
of acres of land between Sioux City and Sergeant Bluff. It also was responsible for thebaching
up of the waters of “Old Muddy” into the Floyd river, now receding after overflowing its
banks into the lowlands of Sioux City.
In the immidiate foreground the picture shows where the dynamite “bombs" were
dropped from Aviator Shifflett’s “bombing” plane by Sheriff Paul T. Beardsley and 0.
Moriarity, a Sioux City civil engineer employed by the Woodbury county board of super
visors, in an effort to break up the jam. The “bombs" dropped late Friday afternoon virtually
cut the jam in two and caused a slight movement in the ice, the “bombers” said. The ice
in the center of tne picture ran up the river toward Sioux City for more than six miles.
Then there was a break and another jam started, extending almost to Floyd monument. The
jam was made up almost entirely of slush ice and for this reason the “bombing” had very
little effect Thursday. After the second attack Friday, however, the ice started moving,
resulting in a drop of the flood waters near Dakota City which is on the left side of picture
in the background. Sergeant Bluff and Brasfield’s island are at the right in the back
ground. The island was practically covered with water. Duncan’s island in the same vicin
ityalso was virtually inundated. Due to muddy roads and flooded land near the ice jam,
the only way of taking a picture of the big ice pack was from an airplane. This is the first
time that an ice jam in the Missouri has been “bombed” from an airplane and the above air
plane picture is the first ever taken of such a scene.
Immigration Bureau Attacks
Great Mountain of Work
Each Month—Reports
Are Voluminous.
Washington (U. P.)—One of those
tucked away bureaus and boards m
which Washington abounds, whose
mills grind slowly but adequately, is
the board of review of the labor de
partment, before which pass all im
migration cases appealed from port
authorities.
The board of review's has only late
ly had its light removed from under
a bushel by the 3 per cent, immigra
tion restriction law and the strange
and appealing cases it lias given rise
to. From time to time now, one hears
of "appeals to Washington” in some
case of separation of relatives at Ellis
island or in some deportation. The
board of review is “Washington” for
these appeals.
The magnitude of the work of tlie
hoard may be understood from one
of its recent monthly reports. In this
month, September, 1922, 1,796 ap
pealed cases were reviewed by the
board and decisions written. The
number of aliens involved totaled
3,867.
The status of the persons appealing
during this month from rulings of
port authorities, usually those whose
admittance some regulation forbids,
ranged all the grades of humanity.
Among them may be enumerated ac
tors, alien contract laborers, anarch
ists, communists and I. W. \V., per
sons acused of crimes Involving moral
turpitude, including burglary, felony,
forgery, murder, perjury, smuggling,
etc., domestic servants, persons af
ected with heart trouble, wdth hernia,
idiots, illiterates, feeble minded,
midgets, nurses, orphans, physical de
fective, including cripples, profes
sional beggars, prostitutes, and per
sons afflicted with a variety of dis
eases, for instance, tarchoma, leprosy,
and venereal afflictions.
That the cases coming before the
board are not always without friends
and influence is indicated by tha
statement that out of the 1,796 cases
senators were interested in 150 and
representatives in 382. Attorneys in
terested themselves in 480, presum

ably for hire. Various societies, rela
tives, friends and others made them
selves heard in 523.
Proof that local authorities are not
alway inflallible and that the board
often reverses their decisions is given
in the statement that in 210 cases the
recommendations of port authorities
were not followed in whole or in part.
In 752 cases the port authorities’ re
commendations were followed, but
fuller explanations as to law and
facts were stated. It is assumed that
in the other cases the board modified
the recommendations of the author
ities, or upheld them in full, without
explanation.
GAS ENGINE CUTS
INTO OAT PRICES
Farmers Get $30,000,000
Year Less Since Truck Trac
tors Have Made Advent.
International News Service.
Chicago.—Substitution of automo
bile delivery frucks for Old Dobbin
in cities, and replacing of farm work
horses by tractors has resulted in
$30,000,000 annual loss to the farmers
of the country in lower prices they
are able to get for their oats, Robert
McDougal, president of the Chicago
board of trade, 'told the Horse
Owners’ association of America at
their annual meeting here.
"Before we were using gasoline
oats prices averaged about 62 cents
lower than wheat,” McDougal said.
"During the last few years oats
prices have averaged 65 cents lower
than wheat. Our oats crop is usually
about 1,000,000,000 bushels. This 3
cents drops means $30,000,000 annual
loss to American farmers.”
The same amount of loss might
also be estimated for hay, he said,
because while the hay crop is as
large as ever the demand is much
less.
Ten years ago there were 3,000,000
oats fed horses in Chicago. Today
there are only half that number.

! MONARCHS NOW RAISE
| FUND FOR ROYALTIES
Aid to Ex-Empress Zita Also
Planned by Those Who Still
“Hold Their Jobs.”
BY BASIL WOON,
Universal Staff Corretpondent.
Paris.—A relief fund for destitute
royalty is being raised privately
among the monarchs still holding
their jobs in Europe.
The fund was started by Queen
Alexandra, of England, consort of the
late Edward VII. Its primary object
is to relieve the distress of ex-Ent
press Zita, of Austria Hungary, and
her children, the eldest of whom, Otto,
may one day be crowned king ot
Hungary.
The condition of the widowed ex
empress is declared to be pitiful. She
is living in a suburb of Madrid in a
large villa lent her by King Alfonso,
and so far her expenses have been de
frayed by that monarch,
i She is reluctant to accept this char
tty, however, and has reduced her ex
penses to a bare minimum, with the
result that all but two servants haw
been discharged and the <iueen’ her
self has become her children’s ’gov
erness. She is declared to be writing
a novel.
POLISH CHILDREN
• THANKFUL TO U. S.
International News Service.
Chicago.—Polish children devote a
part of their time in school each week
to writing letters to “the kind Ameri
cans” who have done so much for
them.
That was the report of Mrs. Kvelina
Belden Paulson, supervisor of the
children's aid division of the Red
Cross commission to Poland, when
she arrived here recently frcjm Poland.
“When we first arrived in Poland
we found multitudes of men. women
and children barefoot, because there
were no shoes,” she reported. "To
day there are few who do not possess
at least some kind of "<>ot covering.
“There were only three trained
nurses in all Poland when the Red
Cross commission arrived. Now
trained nurses—Polish girls—are
numbered by the hundreds.”
The nurses were trained by Ameri

Great Lumber Famine Threat
ens State of Alabama—
Drastic Appeal to Gov
ernor for Relief.
Montgomery Ala. <U. P.)—Alabama
U threatened with a lumber famine
that will reduce this state from the
position of a lumber exporter, to that
of an import state, according to l. T.
Quinn, state commissioner of conser
vation, who has made a close study
of lumber conditions in Alabama.
An appeal to Governor Kilby to. in
clude in his message to the state leg
islature, provisions for the enactment
of laws which will provide for the
protection of state forests and for the
reforestation on lands from which
timber has been removed has been
made by Quinn in line v/ith his pro
gram of conservation.
"We are cutting our timber more
than four times as fast as we are
producing it," Quinn said. “Only 10
Per cent, of what is now being cut is
original growth, the other 90 per cent,
is second growth and of Inferior
grade.
“In 1910, estimates indicated that
Alabama had 38.000,OOo.aOO feet of
standing long leaf pine. The estimate
of 1919 showed approximately 25,000.
000,000 feet ‘of timber, or a reduction
of 13.000,000,000 feet In pine timber
alone during that decade.”
Mobile, which in 1910 was the lead
ing port of the world for export of
lumber has dropped to sixth place,
Quinn said, in emphasizing the urg
ent need of a liberal forestr y program.
Alabama in 1910 was the leading
southern state In lumber exports.
Now it Is In third place.
Coupled with the serious lumber fa
mine threatening, the problem of what
use to make of lands that will be
come bare unless re-forested also con
fronts the state, he says. "Between
50 and 60 per cent, of the land is
classed as forest lands, and the ques
tion of how over half of the state Is
to be utilized in the future, now pre
sents itself.” Quinn says. "We have
approximately 6.Off),000 acres of cut
over lands suitable to profitable agri
culture. The remainder of the state,
more than 8.000,000 acres is practical
ly worthless except for growing tim
ber.”

arguments about it.

which belonged 10 me. They hauled
a couple of wagon loads to a plaee off
the farm where they dumped it.
"I went down and nailed up the
corn crib door while they were away.
"When they returned I told Frank
he had better settle with me before ho
took more of that corn. He told me
1 had better talk to his father. His
father told me he didn’t owe me any
thing and accused me of stealing his
hay.
"Words followed. Then 1 saw my
son William come out of the door
with a shotgun. When he was with
in about 40 feet from where we stood
Frank Wilcox drew a revolver and
started firing.
"His first two shots struck me and
I fell over. Frank emptied his gun
at William and I heard the roar of
William's shotgun only once. When
I came to I found William lying on
the ground dead.
"I opened my eyes in time to see
Frank's father seize his son's revol
ver and point it at me. All the shells
had* been exploded and the hammer
snapped on the cylinder.
Surrenders to Sheriff.
