Make Appeal
for Additional
Relief Funds
President Coolidge Believes $5,000,

Not to Call on Congress.
Washington, April 29. 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;

Lcdation
for Next Session
Control! cf Rivers to Come Up in Next
Meeting of Congress as Result
of Severe Lesson Taught.
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

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.
AIDS FLOOD SUFFERERS
The great need of help in the
stricken lands of the south where 10.

dents of the country and sums are be
ins poured in to aid in the relief
work.
The Piatt pmouth Ad club has voted
