A territory 1,500 miles along the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, through 11 states, faced disease and untold suffering before supplies and rc- lief crews could mnrshall their for- ces efficiently. A United States army engineer at Memphis, Lt. Col. Eugene Rey- bold, predicted a "super flood." with crests almost 10 feet higher than any ever known. Gravity of his fears was illu- strated in the fact he looked for something even worse than the flood of l927—described by the Red Cross as the "greatest disaster this coun- try ever suffered." Against the time when the flood crest arrives in. the south, the Red Cross made emergency preparations b0 concentrate as many as 50,000 refugees in Memphis alone. Nearly 2.090 hosts were sad-J to be at that. city to bring in refugees. Regular army troops had as their first task completion of evacuation of two-thirds of Louisvllies 330,000 residents. In Cincinnati, the cry “boll all water" went up repeatedly and in- sistently through every device of public proclamation.

Zfi-Centraliz- lotion of marketing of all agricul- ,it.iral and horticultural products ‘under rte-organization of the Fed- er l Department of Agriculture was forecast here today by Hon. J. G. Gardiner, Minister of Azriculture. Speaking at the opening of the Canadian horticultural council's 15th annual convention. the min- jister said increased emphasis on marketing will be the main feature of the departmental re-organiz- ation. “Our hope is to organize the de- partment into four divisions-ma:- keting, production, rcaarch and administration," he said. "While with the expcrimctital farms, the experimental farms organization as such will be little disturbed. For the next few years, at least, per- haps for a longer time, it will be necessary for any department of agriculture to place much greater emphtnsls of marketing than has been done in the past." The Minister said the only new appointment to the department was Dean A. M. Shaw of the Sask- atchewan Agricultural College. He is director of the tnarketing div- ision. Sizeaking of freight rates, Mr. Gardiner pointed to some anomal- ies which he said existed in West- crit Canada.

The meeting will continue tomorrow and Thursday. Evangefist Speaks 0n Second Gonfing "Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall Hc appear the second time without sin unto salvation.” Hebrews 9: 2B. This text formed the basis upon which Evan- gelist Brennnn based his remarks concerning the second coming of Christ. He said, “Just as surely as Christ died on the cross for the sins of the world, Just so surely will Hr: come again to complete the grreai; plan of salvation." Among other things the speaker said, “The apostles believed and taught this great truth, as also did such great men as Luther, Calvin, ifiaxver. C. H. Spurgeon. Moody. S. G. Gordon and others. In the New Testament afonc the return of Jesus is ntentiohed over 300 times." As to the munner in which Christ would return, the evangelist ‘said, "It will be a. personal, visible, glor- ious, prvmillenial coming ‘For as the the lightning cometh out of the east and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of mnn lie-and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall sve the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great gory’ (words of Jesus) lVfatthcw ‘Z4: 27-30.” "Nineteen hundred years ago as the disciples stood on Oiivet look- ing intently upward for the inst glimpse of their departing Lord, suddenly two angels stood at their side to cottvoy the clieeritig promise, ‘This same Jesus, which is taken up front you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven’ Acts l: 9-11". Mr. Brennan continued by scy- itig,"'Christ‘s second coming is not at, death as some affirm, neither will ii. be a. ‘secret coming‘ or en outpouring of tho Holy Spirit, but a. personal, visible return to be seen by both righteous and wicked, as it says in Revelation l: 7 ‘Behold He coineth with clouds and every eye shall see Minn-And then shall Ill the tribes of the earth mouml— Mattlicw 24; 30. In regards t0 the time when this great event would occur, Mr. Bren- nan said, “It is a. divine secret, and God warns us against setting a definite time, for ‘No man ' ..h the day and hour’ Matthew 24: 30. But according to certain signs which Jesus said would take place in the earth we may know it is ‘near oven at the door‘ Matthew 24: 3, 33; Luke 21: 31' ". He then stat- ed that most of there signs had met fulfillment, and that otherswhich - were rapidly being fulfilled, showed that "History's grand climax 1a very near." Mr. Brennan closed his discourse by urging all present not to post- pone the needful preparation neces- sary for a. place in Christ's king- dom; for “Behold now is the ac- cepted time; Behold now is the day of salvation" 2 Corinthians 6: 2.

LONDON, Jon. 26—((P Cable)- A bill providing for a regent to act for Princess Elizabeth should her shereaottcstheageoflmwilibe considered by the House of Com- mons tomorrow. A message from the King. "signed by his own hand," was read to the House today by Prime Minister Baldwin. It asked that this pm- vision be made, in addition to means for the uninterrupted exer- cise of Royal authority in the event of the illness of the Sovereign ct of his absence from the realm. father. King George, die before~ ENGLISH l] ll K E Princess Ellizabeth is now 10, and iuiless a son is born to the King and Queen, will stiocced to the Throne on her father's death. Sim- on the accession of George V in i910, when the Duke of Windsor, then Prince of Wales, was under age. A possible occasion for the use of the proposed provision for the exercise of Royal authority during i the King's absence would arise should His Majesty journey to 1n- dia for the customary Imrperial Dunbar. It has also been seriously suggested that the King and Queen might visit the Dominions during the next few years. In his message to Parliament. His Majesty spoke of the "uncer- tainty of human life" and said his father, George V, had g‘ven much thought to questions in relation to the exercise of Royal authority fol- lowing his illness in 1928. ' “It. had been his mention, if he had lived," the message said, “as it was also the intention o my pre- dcwsor, to address a message to you drawing your attention’ to the question. The leading of the message from the King to the asembled Com- mons paralleled the procedure of the day when King Edward‘ VIII sent his momentous communication, declaring his "irrevocable determin- ation to renounce the ‘rhmne!’ Prime Minister Baldwin announ- ced the message had ‘been received at the Commons, thenwenttothe bar of the House to get it, return- ed and, bowing, handed it w Speak- er E. A. tritzmv. who proceeded to read it inmeesurcd, resonant tone. Mr. Baldwin then moved that the thanks of the House be communi- cated to the King. He announced he would introduce a bill tomorrow to give effect to His Majwtyb wish- es. After its introduction, Sir John Simon, Home Secretary and deputy leader of the Comimons, will have charge.

When Sir Samuel Hoax-e, as for- eign secretary, haul been “guilty of sabotaging the League of Nations," Greenwood proceeded, Prime Min- ister Baldwin had not defended his action, but at least had permitted him to make s. statement in the House. "I have the impression the Lords of the Admiralty are "extremal high-handed in their methods of dealing with their employees,” he declared. Sir Samuel Hoare said he did not complain about the tone of Green- woodls speech, because the Gov- ernment fully agreed with hiscom- ments regarding democracy and detiestation of autocratic methods‘. but. the very itature of the men's work at the dockyards demanded special care against sabotage. “A wrong action, intcntionnl or unintentional, may endanger not only the ships of the navy but the lives of the officers and men aboard," the First 10rd declared. “A mistaken act with lhipsllcmn- plicated as they are today myleld to 101s of control during manoeuv- res in peace time. Herc Sir Sunuel made the dis- closure concerning the concentrat- ed attempt to spread dissatisfac- tion and even mutiny. "Very dis- turbing incidents" over the inst three years involving sabotage, he said, included. Oiler War Afrida. at Davenport. 1933, brass filings and sand placed in mlchinery. Oiler Oleander ct Davenport. i933 bolts clogged up the engine; Submarine Oberon at Devonport, 1935, main port motor tempered wim; i Battleship Royal Oak at Devon- port, i936, pin discovered in on control cable: Cruiser Cumberland at Chathun 1935-30, needle found driven in el- ectric cable. (Four of the dismissed men wen from Devonport and the other from Sheerness dockynrd). "Investigction established the damage was premeditated and mol- lciowl," Sir Samuel uld. "Having regard to other instances of the type, the damage wlc done at the instigation of some superior orga- nization n-nd was not the work cf n practical Joker or isolated malccn- tents."

Most serious problem of all we: the right of incorporation given to the provinces as well as the Dominion, with the result that huge corporations wielded enorm- ous power within the Dominion. Premier King "Unprepared" Prime Minister Mackenzie King said ho regretted the subject had been brought up in a manner that left him (the Prime Minister) ab- solutely unprepared for it. He had not expected it. It was a most im- portant auggcstlon. He hnd no doubt of the sincerity of the op- position leader. No more important question con- fronted Canada than the amend- ment of the B. N. A. Act, said Mr. King. It was agreed amendments were desirable but the question was how best they could be decided. Mr. Bennett's suggestion was not new. 1t had been considered by a. special committee of the House only a few years ago. The com- mittee recommended the views of the provinces should be obtained before any decision was ruched. Liberal Conference A Failure Experience of the committee ll- lustrated the difficulty of getting any eo-opemtion from the provin- ces to amend the constitution. None ofthe provinces would even submit their views to the commit- tee.

A convention, such as Mr. Ben- nett suggested, would perhaps be the best procedure, said Mr. King. It would be important. however, to get the provinces to _ _ convention in the right frame of mind. If all parties did riot ap- proach the convention in a. spirit of good will and co-operction the convention would do more harm than good. A118“!
