Aid Is to Be Made as Autumn Crops Are De stroyed and Food Is Scarce, ( State Department Hears. inundation is equal to if not greater than the one ot 1909. An area of some 2000 square miles was submerged un der from three to 15 feet of water, and from July 11 to July 21 the waters reached such a height as to submerge all except very high ground in an area estimated at 7000 square miles. "The flood extended throughout eight districts in Northern Anhui. There are 10 cities of considerable size in these eight districts, with a total population estimated at from 800.000 to 1,000.000 people. The total1 population of the flooded region Is apparently 2,500.000 people. "While It is thought that compara tively few lives were lost, crops and personal property have been destroyed and there are thousands of destitute people, nearly all of whom are now ob jects of charity. The supply of food stuffs on hand will be inadequate to feed the people and practically all of the Autumn crops in the eight districts have been entirely destroyed.. Appeals for relief have come In from the vari ous affected districts." DRYS CREATE ISSUE "WASHINGTON', Sept. 20. Nearly 000,000 people have been made horn less in China by one of the greatest floods in 50 years.

WILSON Statement That Executive Is Anion; Those "Favoring Temperance, but Opposing Prohibition," Quoted . and Reply Is ltequested. SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 20. Whether esident Wilson is opposed to prohi bition became- an issue in California's heated wet and dry fight today with the state of the coast to coast prohibl tion campaign train. Assertion made in a "wet" pamphlet freely distributed at the -prohibition meetings along the San Joaquin valley today that the President Is amous 11 'ldely known Americans, mciuaing ex- resident Taft and Cardinals who "ia- vor temperance, but oppose pronioi- tion" was questioned by Dr. Ira Lan drith, the prohibition vice-presidential candidate. Later tonignt uiiver.. w Stewart, national campaign manager for. the Prohibitionists, telegraphed the President asking if the "wets" here were misrepresenting his attitude. "President Wilson has declared his willingness to see prohibition come by states." Mr. Landrith said in an ad dress at Oakland tonight, and he is on record as actually favoring prohibition In a leading Southern state. He will not now verify the assertion of the sa loonists of California that, along with Clarence Darrow, Hugo Munsterberg, William Howard Taft and Henry Wat tersson. who are named in the pamph let, that he is on the liqucr dealers' side in these wet and dry state fights. ine President will not defy the suffrage lightnings of the 19 dry states' wrath by confirming the accusation that he Is opposed to prohibition in any state. Let him make such a pro-liquor declaration Aid his defeat is assured as his friends now believe his election certain. But this official charge that he is an anti-prohibitionist must now be disclaimed or his silence will be in terpreted as assent." J. Frank Hanly. the Presidential can- date, continued his attack on Charles K, Hughes for his silence on the liquor question, and appealed to all voters for support of the prohibition platform. which ne lermea as comprehensive as any other on issues other than the liq- our question. Meetings were held both here and In Oakland tonight. 'Aberdeen Xatatorlum Projected. ABERDEEN, Wash, Sept. 20. (Spei clal.) AVlshkah Lodge.

VICTORY THOUGHT CERTAIN War Will Not End Within 6 Months, Declares Under-Secretary of War, After Visit to Battle fields in Europe. LONDON. Sept. 20. "I wish I could pick one of my horses as a winner with the certainty of victory for the entente allies." said Lord Derby, the British Under-Secretary of War, on receiving the American correspondents today on his return from a visit to franco, where, in company with General Sir Douglas Haig and General Joffre. he saw the trials of the "tanks," . before they were sent into battle against the Germans. Lord Derby continued: "We now have an. European army with better guns, better rifles and bet ter ammunition than any other country in the world today. But I do not agree with the people who expect the war to end within six months, as it must surely continue over the Winter. "We are fighting the best organized nation in the world, and it would be a reflection on our own troops not to admit that the Germans are showing extraordinary bravery. Two years ago they had a great chance to win. They are exceedingly strong in engines o . destruction, but we at least are even In this . respect now. and t cannot help feeling that our men individually are better. Soon we hope to have a dis tinct margin of superiority. "We are able to continue to increase the arms, munitions and food of our troops, and we will get more men n needed, but no concrete proposal has been made yet to Increase the age-t limit." S.
