Thousands are home leas, and hunger and sickness add to the distrsB. Thre is no hope of an abatement in ph.t. as the rain con tfeuiea over he watershed of all tribu taries of the Father of Wajtera, and the ice in the upper Mississippi is be ginning to melt, which means that fur ther additions t the .flood of water are on their way. There has already heen considerable toes of life by drown ing, and the end is not yet. The levees are tn danger of giving way at a num ber of additional points, and the peo ple living in the threatened districts are fleeing for their lives, abandoning their homea and property to the en gulfing waters. The eftuation Is rap idly developing into a calamity of such proportions that local aid will be unaible to cope with the needs of the sufferers, and prompt aid from other sections will be needed.
