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.
Alcoholism
Study Slated
In an effort to learn more about
the probcm of alcoholism among
Indians, and how to deal with it
more effectively. Commissioner of
Indiart Affairs Glenn L. Emmons
today announced the appointment
of a special three-man commission
which will begin in the near future
a three-month study on the Navajo
Reservation lot Arizona. New Mex
ico and Utah) and other Indian
reservations of New Mexico and
Colorado.
Appointed to the commission
were O. K. Armstrong. Springfield.
Missouri, former member of Con
gress; Earnest A. shepherd, Avon
Park. Florida, administrator of the
Florida State Alcoholic Rehabilita
tion Program: and Rev. David A.
Works, North Conway. New Hamp
shire. Miss Selene Glftord. assis
tant cammissioner (community ser
vices! of the Bureau of Indian
Affairs, will serve as an ex-of-ficio
member.
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. The underlying pur
pose of the commission's study
will be to take the first steps to
ward an eventual filling of this
gap. 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.
While t h e commission s study
will be conducted under general
supervision ot the Bureau of In
dian Affairs, the United States Pub
lic Health Service, which has been
responsible for health work among
the Indians aince last July, will
take part by providing technical
assistance and cooperation.

recovering from the disastrous
Christmas week floods, was belted
with rain, wind and low tempera-1
tures as townspeople began their
belated yuletide.
Only 1000 persons attended
church services in the large white
tent set up downtown to serve as i
the center of the week-long holl-!
day. On Wednesday downtown
stores will reopen officially and
residents will enjoy free band con-!
certs, carnival rides and a circus.
The "Christmas in February" ob-1
servance will be climaxed Satur
day, Feb. 25, when Santa Claus
will distribute to the area's 15.000
children presents donated by many
civil groups, military camps and
Individuals.
Meanwhile, In San Francisco the
Golden Dragon. Chinatown's main
attraction of the New Year's pa
rade, stayed ln-doors because of
driving rain. The papier-mache
and silk monster was considered
loo fragile to be out In the wet.
