Ohio, Maryland. Kentucky. Indi
ana. Illinois, Tennessee. Missouri
and Arkansas. Yellow waters crept
up city street and flooded base
ments in scores of communities.
Riding high on an accumulation
of heavy rains, the Ohio river des
cended on Portsmouth, Ohio, and
caused City Manager Prank Shee
nan to warn all residents, except
those in hilltop districts, to prepare
to leave homes and business houses.
The city has a population of more
than 40.000.
The river rose two-tenths of a
foot an hour at Cincinnati toward
a crest the weather bureau said
might equal that of the 1913 Inun
dation, which cost southwestern
Ohio millions of dollars.
The village of New Richmond, 30
miles east of Cincinnati, sent a call
for aid, and boat crews were dis
patched to evacuate families sur
rounded by water. Fifteen hun
dred families already had left their
homes in northern Kentucky cities.
Indicative of the sweep of the
flood was a report that 1,500 of the
2,000 hou&es in New Richmond were
flooded. Water was five feet deep in
the streets.
Almost the entire ppoulation of
Aurora, Ind, worked to remove
stocks from stores. Fire sirens
brought them from their beds at
midnight.
Bursting through a levee. White
river waters took over the village
of Hazleton, Ind. Its 500 residents
stood on hills and surveyed the
wreckage.
Flood waters swept over the Ken
tucky lowlands, in some places
reaching, the 1933 mark, driving
hundreds from their homes and de
railing a Louisville and Nashville
train at Slaughters. The National
guard was mustered In Frankfort to
assist evacuation of areas flooded by
the Kentucky river.
Rising levels of the Mississippi
and its tributaries forced lowland
dwellers to flee in west Tennessee
and northeastern Arkansas. Tents,
box cars and public buildings housed
the homeless.
Winter rain and mountain snow
sent the rivers in western Pennsyl
vania toward flood stage today. The
south branch of the Potomac river
washed out a temporary bridge near
Springfield. W. Va.
The Red Cross reported 2.000 ref
ugees in the flood area of Kennett.
Mo. Rescuers searched for many
families believed marooned by the
St. Francis river flood waters. Seventy-five
families were rescued by
motorboat crews yesterday. High
waters made 250 persons homeless
at Dexter, Mo., and 200 at Corning,
Ark.
The Cumberland river, far above
flood stage, threatened water-front
buildings at Nashville, Tenn and
routed many householders. Backwa
ter from the Mississippi, inundated
western Tennessee lowlands. Illi
nois and North Carolina were other
states plagued with flood waters.
Authorities moved to prevent loot
ing of abandoned property in the
flood areas.
STATE TO REPAIR
ROAD CROSSINGS
The state highway commission has
advised the county court it will re
pair and make passable all county
road intersections along the new
alignment of the Paclfc highway
south of the city and get to work
Immediately, Commissioner Melson
advised the county court this morn
ing. Numerous complaints have
come from citizens in that area dur
ing the past few days since the thaw
has softened up roadways that cars
are being stuck at the intersections
and traffic very materially retarded
by conditions existing. The new
grade for the highway crosses quite
a string of county road Intersections
In the hills south of town In the

of It and quite a portion of the new
roadway is made up of fills which
are new and not yet settled.

After Being Drenched,
Wettest Inauguration
Washington, Jan. 21 (U.R) President Roosevelt took a
hot bath and went to bed early last night after getting dunk
ed in history's wettest inauguration. Today he feels swell.

The president and Mrs. Roosevelt
sloshed in the back seat of this au
tomobile, smiling at the cheering
thousands, as though the heaviest
rain of the winter weren't soaking
them to the skin. Water on the
the tonneau floor must have been
half an inch deep.
Mr. Roosevelt didnt even keep on
his silk topper. He waved it to the
multitudes, while rain dropped down
his chin.
And talking about hats, the first
lady suffered a real tragedy. When
she started from the White Houie

GERMAN BAPTISTS
TO BURN MORTGAGE
At the closing service of the evan
gelistic meetings, Friday evening at
7:45, the German Baptist church,
corner North Cottage and D streets,
will burn a $7,000 mortgage. The
last payment of 700 was made last
week. It Is an occasion of rejoicing
for the members of the church that
now the beautiful edifice is free
from any debt. Tlie church was
built In 1926 during the pastorate of
the Rev. O. W. Rutsch.
The chairman of the board of
trustees Henry Willecke, will 1UM
the "bonfire." The Rev. O. Schunke,
who was chairman of the building
committee, will offer the prayer of
thanks. The Rev. J. F:. Olthoff, pas

of the celebration and give a brief
address. After the ceremony the
two-weeks evangelistic campaign
will come to a close with a message
by the Rev. O. A. Leng, of Tamoca,
Wash.

of Miss Eileen Docler were invited
to help celebrate her birthday an

afternoon of games preceded the re

had on one of the pertest, blue bon
nets you ever saw. It was one of
those smart, Parisian models which
dipped over her right eye, and which
was made of some soft, fuzzy stuff,
which makes It look almost like
bird feathers. It was an elegant hat.
When she returned to the White
House two hours later, her hat was
a wreck. It had lost Its lines and Its
feathery look. It was soggy, it was
wet, and it looked like nothing so
mucn as a rubber bathing cap.
The big trouble with the inaug
uration was that everything leaked,
including the paper cups in which
messenger boys rushed cold coffee.
The roofs In the $10 per seat re
viewing stands dripped water and
sawdust. The shelter at the capitol,
underneath the president's diss.
sprayed like a shower-bath spray
through the cracks between the
planks.
The president's grandstand, the
$11,000 replica of Andrew Jackson's
Hermitage, had a solid roof, but se
cret service agents stamped through
it so frequently, looking suspiciously
at everybody, that a cold wind nul
lifted the good work of the electric
radiators.
The house didn't do Mr. Roosevelt
a bit of good. The inaugural com-
mlttee built an enclosed booth on
the front porch for his use in re-
viewing the parade. It was a nice
booth, too. heated and protected on
all sides with half-inch thick sheets
of bullet-proof glass.
The president took a quick look
at It and ordered the windows re
moved. There was so much rain on
'em, that he couldn't see the pa
rade! Out went the windows, Mr. Roose
velt got a good view of the march
ers, and vice-versa. The rain and
the wind also got a good whack at
the president, soaking him as thor
oughly almost as If he'd fallen Into
a lake. The president watched the
parade for two solid hours, acknow
ledged every salute, and smiled at
every last cheer.
But when the final soldier had
marched by, Mr. Roosevelt became
visibly happier. So did I. I didn't
know what was in the president's
mind, but I was thinking about that
hot bath and those dry socks. I nev
er knew before how thrilling the
thought of warm, wool socks could
be.

to Manager Carl Porter who has
Just booked this magnificent pro

only, Thursday, February 11.
For those who have read Shake

and her Romeo is as modern as the
love story of any boy or girl of to
day. Norma Shearer and Leslie
Howard make the lovers of Ver
ona real and human and under
standable as they defy family
hatred for a love that admits no
barriers.
But "Romeo and Juliet" Is more
than a great love story. It is a
thrilling romance, true, but it is
also a moving, action-filled spec
tacle. Filmed against the colorful
and fascinating background of 15th
century Italy. It is packed with
comedy and tense, dramatic situa
tions. The duel fought between
