NORRIS FACES BITTER ORDEAL i IN HOME TOWN Senator Hotly Censured by Nebraskans for Switch | . to Al. BY ROSCOE B. FLEMING, Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska faces one of the most dramatic moments of his life next Monday night in his old home town, McCook, Neb., ' where he will speak for Governor Alfred E. Smith. „ Bitter feeling has been aroused in the strongly Republican town by Norris’ recent speech declaring for Smith. Sixteen Republicans drafted a telegram saying they "‘could not believe” that Norris was going to come out for Smith and appealing ' to him to end the “scandalous rumors.” This was before his Omaha speech. Norris in reply will speak in McCook the night before election and will appeal to his fellow townsmen to support smith. It is predicted here that a strenuous attempt will be made to defeat him for the senatorship in 1930 because of his stand. Washington also is wondering whether he will be deprived of his chairmanship of the senate judiciary committee during the coming session because of his switch. With the ' support of Democratic senators whose candidacy he has sought to aid, it is believed he will retain this position, however, if an attempt is made to take it from him.

lican members except Senator Blaine of Wisconsin has followed his lead. Norris’ office here has received many telegrams and letters since his speech. There isn’t any halfway point, fhey are either in strong praise or strong condemnation. One man wrote him from Arizona that he was glad Norris was out of the Republican party, because for many years his (the . writer’s) only dissatisfaction with the party was the fact that Norris was in it. Many wires came from Michigan, New York, Massachusetts, and other eastern states. All these were in praise.

ASK CONGRESS TO RAISE ANTE ON FLOOD WORK Exhaust Funds by July 1 of Next Year for u. Mississippi. BY C. J. LILLEY Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—Congress will be asked for additional money to carry on flood control in the Mississippi valley soon after it convenes in December, the appropriation of $24,000,009 for the first year being nearly spent. Work has been progressing so rapidly that funds will be exhausted by next July 1 and this Congress must act if flood work is to continue after that date, according to war department officials. A report has just been issued showing progress to date. It shows that 65 contracts have been let for levee work, bank revetment work is being pushed, and plans are in course of preparation for completion of Bonnet Carre spillway. Surveys and maps are being made in all sections covered by the flood control act and engineer offices have been enlarged in order to expedite the work, according to the report. In addition aid has been given families in the valley country, and crevasses along the main river and its tributaries have been closed dining the summer months. Work has been co-ordinated between the army engineers and the Mississippi river commission so that it is being handled more efficiently than ever before, according to. Major General Jadwin and other officiaJs. Prior to adoption of the flood act, total expenditures for flood control

amounted to $10,090,000 annually. Efforts will probably be made in this session of congress to get more than $30,000,000 in an effort to complete the flood control program in less than ten years.
