An appeal fcr additional funds for flood relief! in the Mississippi river valley, above1 th? $5,000,000 already asked on be-f half of the Red Cross, was made "to-! day by Presdeut Coolidge coincident' with announcement at the white I house that a special session of con-' press would not be called for consider ation of flood control and relief legis lation. Mr. Coolidge sees no method by which the treasury can be resorted tc for funds for relief work and he wants; it made cie.ir that the Red Cros must; dpend on public contributions for; relief activities. Moreover, the presi-t d.-nt does not consider it expedient to; call congress into session. It would i take some time, he believes to assem-i ble congress nd a longer time to have aii appropriation authr ried and ac tuallv made. 1 As r hcod controi lei is.ation for! tUa ?J:.-iri-irpi, it is constantly un-i d r consideration by the sc - ministra - tion, it was said at the white house, but is complicated bv the necessity of consideration of three elements food navi, - . , 1 . ,7 . 1 - . . i ation.

Washington. April 2 8. Flood con trol legislation promises to come to the fore at the next session of con gress because of the lesson taught by the present Mississippi valley flood. Republicans and democrats are wfrkintr cm plans to prevent a recurrence cf the nisaster r.:id both agree that partisanship should be laid aside in an effort to arrive at the best practical solution. President Coolidge has tilled in the heads of the various government al departments for suggestions and has announced a willingness to co operate in working out a rrneay. He conferred today with Senator Curtis, the republican leader, and Secretarv Mellon, who is a member 'of the cabinet flood committee. Both ' proach would be by construction of storage reservoirs on the headwaters of the Mississippi to impound sur plus water during flood periods and (listribute it for power or irrigation. ! Legislation, Senator Curtis said. i would be drafted at the next session aSlookimr to the construction of dams) by the government. If such a meas ure failed of passu re he said the state undoubtedly would be urged to take the burden upon themselves.
