COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.,
May 30. -(JP)- Twelve or more
deaths, and heavy but as yet un
estimated property damage were
listed tonight as the direct results
of a spring storm that swelled
Fountain and Monument ereeks
to giant torrents and swept
through this city and Pueblo to
the Arkansas river.
In addition to the deaths at
Colorado Springs, an undetermin
ed number of persons were re
ported lost in flood waters near
Glendo in southeastern Wyoming
Ernest Adams, mayor of Glen
do. was reported to have tele
phoned his wife he saw two auto-,
mobiles plunge into a washout, i
overturn and plunge down the
swollen stream.
Adams said he believed occu

He was unable to determine how
many persons were in the ma

Ella V. Clark, swept from their
car by the Monument creek flood.
Two unidentified men and a

who made his way to safety after
having been caught by the flood
here while engaged in rescue
work.
Power, gas and water facilities,
still somewhat limited, were re
stored to Colorado Springs as the
crest of the flood passed about
8 o'clock tonight. Highway and
rail traffic to the south still was
blocked by wrecked bridges and
Inundated roadbeds. Bridges, both
large and small crumbled before
the swollen streams.
Firemen, police, CCC and re

its homeless without outside help.
Meantime only a short dis

opposite aide of the watershed,
residents of the Cherry Creek
Talley were fleeing to safety from
a torrent that had swelled that
normally small stream to a width
of a mile and a half at Frank
town, which, perched safely on
a hill, heard that two neighbor
ing communities, Iowa and El
bert, had been inundated. No loss
of life was reported but Dot Wet
more, the telephone operator at
Elbert, who stuckLto her post as
the stream swirled by, said she
was "afraid to say about people
dying."
The Cherry creek torrent was
described as greater than that of
two years ago which caused heavy
damage in Denver's residential
section, through which it flows.

W. J. Kerr before making any
comment on the findings.
This was the declaration today
of Dr. S. H. Peterson, president
of the Oregon State college chap

Dr. Peterson admitted the Ore
gon State chapter attempted to
forestall the adverse report on
Chancellor Kerr after learning, he
said, that the University of Ore
gon chapter brought pressure to
have the report made.
The report, made a year ago
but withheld in hopes Kerr would
soon be replaced as chancellor of
higher education in Oregon, was
amplified and released at Wash
ington, D. C, yesterday. The com
mittee stated the conviction that
the University of Oregon could not
have "a healthy and normal life
until the chancellor retires."
"Upon learning that Wednesday
afternoon papers carried news of
the report, our chapter wired the
national office asking if the edi

report had been actually issued.

Should the city council at Its

pass the revised traffic code
which was amended in 21 points
at the special session last Mon

present regulations would go into
effect:
1. Trucks with factory rated
capacity exceeding two tons would
be forbidden use of business dis
trict streets east of Front street
during business hours unless they
were proceeding to load or unload
merchandise. This particularly
would force tank and other large
interurban trucks to discontinue
their practice of driving north
and south on Commercial street
during rush hours.
2. Merchants would be permit
ted unlimited parking privileges
for vehicles used in their business,
in front of their place of business,
without having first to secure
loading zone permits from the
council.
3. Motorists driving out of al
leys and private driveways would
not be permitted to turn left.
4. City street busses would be
required to pull up to the curb
ings at downtown intersections in
stead of stopping near the middle
of the roadway.
5. Interurban stage operators
whose busses now stop on State
and High streets to load and un
load passengers would be given
90 days' time in which to secure

New Aspirant
(CopthkM. 1935, by Associated Prest)
PARIS, May 31.-(Friday )
Fcmand Bouisson, eo-year-old
president of the chamber of
deputies, today accepted the
premiership of France and the
task of battling in defense of
the franc, the issue which caus
ed the downfall of bis prede
cessor. Premier Flandin.
PARIS. May 30. The towering
Premier Pierre - Etienne Flandin
was overthrown heavily tonight in
his demand for dictatorial powers
to defend the franc, and Fernand
Bouisson, presiding officer of the
chamber, attempted immediately
to form a new government.
The government, seeking to
stem the flood of gold from the
Bank of Fiance, launched simul
toneously police action against
speculators, closing at least one
"financial establishment."
Devaluation of the franc, which
Flandin predicted would follow
his fall, remained an ever pres
ent threat.
Bouisson is committed to sup
port of the franc, but Flandin de
clared In his farewell speech from
the rostrum of the chamber that
devaluation was inevitable if his
successor failed to get the dicta
torial powers which were denied
to him.
The Flandin government was
overthrown by a vote of 353 to
202. The premier had already
tossed aside Louis Germain-Mar
tin, his finance minister, in an ef
fort to appease the opposition.
But even a request for a modified
time limit to the dictatorial pow
ers demanded proved without
avail.
The budget deficit of 6,e0.-
000,000 francs hung over the
heads of the new ministers. All
leaders admitted it was impos
sible to balance the budget folly
unless confidence were restored.
The white whiskered Bouisson,
an independent, went to President
Albert Lebrun the moment the ,
outgoing cabinet resigned, and un
dertook the task of forming a new
government.
Bouisson made his acceptance
of the premiership dependent upon
the participation or support ef
the socialist party from which he
resigned his membership after the
February, 1034, riots.

placed at the helm.
Ryan, former manager of the
