The Annapolis Valley, the midlands and the southern coastline were bare of snow. The weather was sprlnglike in Halifax after a night of rain, and in King's County there was talk of getting under way with the spring following.

At Dig-by heavy rain caused a landslide when part of a hill svcept away an empty garage and blocked the main highway to the breakwat- er.

The power house was forced to close down for three hours th's afternoon, and Stanfields wool- len Mills suspended operations when the engineroom was flooded. Tonight, however, the flood had re ceded and there were no indications of a recurrence.

Any of ‘Pluto's citizens who may have desired reireshment to cheer the hours of their watery afternoon were disappointed. Cash registers in the Government liquor stores were electrically operated. and that dis- pensary went out of business-tom porarily-whcn the power failed.

GLENDORA, Miss, Jan. '1. _ Warned by the dreaded glare of signal fires and the firing of pistojs and shotguns, taken up from coni- “munity to community to carry the word down stream, residents of the Tallahatchie River Valley fled for their lives today nliead of flood wa- ter unleashed by a levee break near Sharkcy. Glcndora, across the swollen rivrr from the break in the Twilight Le- vee, and other nearby communities, forgot their own troubles from ris- ing waters, hammering at their dikes and manned rescue boats. The flood swiftly spread over 30,000 acres and ran back into the Talla- hatchie below Phillip, ten or twelve miles to the south. Dead livestock of all sorts was seen floating on the fioodwaters, and near the break it- self homes were overturned and washed away.

Despite the valiant rescue work of crews from Glendora, Charleston, and other towns, fear was expressed that there might be new names to add to the death list of two recorded in three weeks of high water. One negro was drowned yesterday and another in‘ the early stages of the flood.

Complete ‘evacuation of the coin- munitles of 'I‘lppo, Payne, Marcel, Delta, and even Phillip was threat- ened. Hundreds of refugees fled north toward Charleston and south toward Phillip. The latter town it- self was the scene of a battle to the finish against the river, with hun- dreds of fresh convicts from the State farm thrown into the fight to hold the lines of weakenedlevees.
