The eoastry may well afford to

that aside from tko immediate good

paralysis of soma Industry, there Is
th further laflueaee la the future-
Federal Control of livers.
No jealous regard for states rights
obtrudes Itself la Ue pressors of Ue
necessity bow existing for federal
control of rtver levees. Tkstaeces
srty has sees made very plaia to Ue
people of Uo states where millions
of dollars' worth ot property aad
some lives bare been destroyed by
Uo Mississippi river floods, and now
Tons em so. Arkansas, Mississippi aad
Louisiana are ready to nnlte sad nrs

Of course, it Is eat of lb question
to think of any one or an of theee
states adequately fortifying them
selves against the rampages of the
