Successful termination oi' the fight to hold the levee lineage against, the charge ei' the Mississippi rlv-1 er today became o. question of grim endurance in the Natichese section while a squadron ploughed through the muddy waters to re- move residents from the inundated lowland parishes of northeastern Louisiana.

The flood waters from the Red

and Mississippi rivers. streaming from breaches in the levee syetenis continued their invasion widening their territory northward and west-1 ward as they moved to meet. thc; coming' flood from the Arkansasi river. The dyke fight became des-1 peraieoii thc west bank ofthe Mississippi in the neighborhood of Vidnlla and a crew worked throuilh- out the night on electrically light- ed embankmcnts.

At Newllton also the situation

became critical no waters slopped over levee tops irud emergency measures were speedcil to the flood area. The crisis was expect- ed between Dulto Point and Beer Park, in the same territory withlir the next two days. With thous- ands of persons already driven from their homes in northeastern Louisiana the crest was but ap- preaching:
