MONDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE SEVEN ' few Xr 1 Floods In Kentucky On Wane BARBOURVILLE. Ky. 11 Dan gtrs of major floods by many streams diminished in Kentucky today almost as suddenly as heavy rains stirred them up Friday night. The receding Cumberland River Jeft substantial damage in Bar bourville. The Cumberland crested two feet under forecasts yesterday and started falling again within two hours. Its waters moved into some 40 homes and routed approximate ly 100 families in threatened areas. The crest was about eight feet over flood stage and left water up to 10 feet deep in lower areas. Barbourville was isolated for sev eral hours when two feet of water covered U.S. 2S-E on both sides of town. Damage was even less upstream it Pineville and other points and lower crests were seen in down river points irr Kentucky and Ten nessee. The Kentucky River, whose ris ing waters Saturday posed another menace, was much tamer Sunday as the high waters moved down stream. At Beattyville. where the three forks of the Kentucky converge, fears were eased as the waters reared a crest six feet over flood stage. Another one to four feet vould have sent much water into business houses. Other downstream points on the Kentucky, including the state capi tal at Frankfort, were told to ex pect -no major damage. Another rampant stream was the Salt River in Central Kentucky. Its waters fanned out to widths of about three miles over farm lands but threatened no cities. About 25 airplanes at the West Point airport were flown to Louis ville as the Salt River threatened to close in. The planes were most ly those of Fort Knox personnel.

In announcing formation of the commission, commissioner L,ui mons pointed out that most Indian resevations have not up to now had the benefit of facilities and services for dcallnn with alcohol ism which are available in many non-Indian communities throughout the country.

It the results warrant, simi lar studies may be undertaken later in other Indian areas. Initiation of the new study. Com missioner . Emmons emphasized, docs not mean that the bureau ad vocates any change in existing Federal law governirg sale of al coholic beverages to Indians. The present law, he added, was enacted in 1953 to eliminate old statutory provisions which discriminated analnst the Indians solely on the ground of i ace.
