FLOOD BAN BARRED BY * ELEVATION City Prevention Engineer Says $3,000,000 Program to Keep River in Banks Depends Upon Raising Belt Railroad Bridge Future steps In the $3,000,000 flood reventlon rogram for Indlanaolis await agreement by city, board of works and the Belt Railroad In regard to sharing cost of $1,000,000 bridge to be built across White River near Raymond St., H. \V. Cassady, flood prevention engineer said today. “Flood prevention department is Interested In track elevation project only in so far as it affects construction of the bridge,” Cassady said. “Until agreement has been reached, we are unable to complete our plans." Flood prevention department is proceeding on the theory that bridge must be built twenty-three feet higher to allow for track elevation. Ex censes of elevation of tracks near fl4oposed bridge and increase in odth of bridge to hold live instead of three tracks are not chargeable to flood prevention budget, in Cassady’s opinion. rians Far Away Belt Railroad engineers are tyorking on bridge plans, Cassady said, but may not complete the project for many months because of the difficulty of the task. With flood prevention under con sideration since 1914, Cassady said the Belt Railroad officials should have taken steps long ago leading toward preparation of bridge plans, which, he said, was logically the duty of the Belt company, and not within the province of the flood prevention department. 'Program of flood prevention department could be definitely announced within a few weeks if the bridge matter was settled, Cassady said. Plans include elimination of a bend of White River between Moore and Raymond Sts., containing abput one hundred acres. New bridges, costing about $500,000 each, would be built at Morris and Raymond Sts., in addition to the $1,500,000 Belt Railroad bridge near Raymond St, Levee Mile Long A levee is to be built along the entire east bank between the streets Indicated, a distance of amout oie mile. Surmounting the levee will be a roadwa thirty feet wide. Levee HMw on the west bank would be exHpded. A concrete wall will be constructed along property of Indianapolis Abattoir Company. Width of White River would be in creased from 350 to 650 feet and average depth from seventeen to thirty-three feet. Engineers have estimated depth of twenty-nine feet under proposed width would carry off as heavy a flood as that which occurred in 1913, thus allowing a safety margin of four feet. City would pay 45, county 45, and owners of property inundated in 1913 flood 10 per cent of costs of project, under terms of the flood prevention law.

Gas On Stomach Makes People Nervous Mrs. Cook Nervous Twelve Years Due to Gas

"For 13 years I suffered from pas on the stomach and was nervous and short of breath. Adlerika has done me more pood than anythinp." (Signed) Lei a Cook. Intestinal Evacuant There is now offered to the public a liquid preparation which is not only a wonderfully effective and QUICK intestinal evacuant, but which also seems to stimulate tho glands of the intestinal tract and to cause expulsion of flatus (GAS). This preparation, known as Adlerika. is a valuable apent for the purpose of cleansing the bowels of matter which has been in the system a long time and which other less effective means have been unable to dislodge. It is often astonishing the great amount of matter Adlerlka dr&wß from the Intestinal canal—even right after a natural movement it sometimes brings out unsuspected quantities of additional matter. Many times it brings out much GAS. thus relieving pressure in the abdomen. Adlerika is especially valuable when PROMPT action is necessary or to encourage the elimination of metabolic poisons through the bowel.
