MISSISSIPPI (Cont. from Pag* One) went district engineer, said the water going through the break was about one foot deep. Drag lines were being rushed to the scene, he said, in an effort to try and stop the flow with “mud boxes" — board walls backed with mud. Bell described the situation as generally "not too bad" because river waters have been falling. He estimated that within two or three days the fiver will be below that of the break tn the levee. Authorities said the break was apparently caused by a weakening of the levee by digging of dirt hear-

Slate Republicans ,' Forming New Club Jenner Foes Form ‘ Political Group 8 ■ Indianapolis. March 21 —(UP) — t A new club of Indiana Republicans, built around the anti-Jenner faction and financed by money left from Hobart Creightons fruitless campaign for governor last year, 1 was in the process of organization ' today. The club—to be known as the Indiana political club—was launched yesterday under the temporary leadership of state Sen. Roy Conrad, R, Monticello, who was i Creighton’s financial manager in i the 1948 campaign. Organizers said the club's start was financed by part of some $15,J 009 surplus remaining in the j Creighton campaign treasury when

I the election was over. Part of this surplus was involved in an intra-party dispute. The | state committee claimed it had a I chunk coming as a refund from appropriations made to Creighton’s cause. But Conrad and his colleagues refused to part with it. Conrad announced the club would be host to a social get-to- ' gether in the Columbia club next Saturday at 5:30 p.m.. an hour before the Indiana Republican edi-l ; torial association stages its annual | spring banquet session. The IREA went on record in 1948 | as strongly opposed to the nomination of U. S. Sen. William E. | Jenner as GOP gubernatorial candidate. Conrad and others in i the new club also were anti-Jenner men who ganged up on the senator last summer and beat him in a close state convention race for the nomination.

Conrad was announced as acting president of the club; Robert K. Kyle. Culver, acting secretary, and Bernard T. Perry, Crawfordsville, acting treasurer. Conrad said the club's purpose was to “elect qualified candidates to public office.” But observers Interpreted it as a move to wrest control of the GOP state committee from chaii man Clark Springer.

The vote on approving thd senate bill was 68 to 10. All 10 dissenting votes were cast by Republicans. Here is how the house and senate measures shape up: Rent ceilings — Both permit "hardship” increases to landlords. Senate provides automatic five percent boosts in all rent ceilings on Oct. 1. 1949 and April 1, 1950. However. the maximum* rise over June 30. 1947 for any landlord is held to 15 percent, except for "hardship" increases. This maximum freezes rents of tenants who signed so-called “voluntary" leases at 15 percent rent hikes. Duration — House voted 1* months. Senate, 12 months with a three-month period of grace in which tenants could not be evicted
