THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
—Conservation — FLOOD THREAT AFTER DRAINAGE OF LAND SHOWN Condition of Eel River Area Is Cited as Example of Result. BY WILLIAM F. COLLINS Times Special Writer There are two Interesting dioramas in the government hall at a Century of Progress that should be placed on wheels and shown throughout Indiana. Both pertain to flood control. One shows a miniature forest through which flow’s a small stream. The forest floor is ancient with leaf mold and the root system of the old trees have penetrated to a great depth, visible through the plate glass front of the exhibit. Opposite is an expanse of barren hillside leveling off into a plowed field. Through the field and down the hill runs a stream of water. Over both displays a steady rain is falling reminding me of the liquid spring of 1933. In the forest the steady drip of rain from the foliage on the forest litter creates the small stream of clear water that finally empties into a large basin in the foreground. The water that does not find its way into the basin via the stream, more than 30 per cent of it makes its way deep into the soil following the root systems.
Makes Little Impression A wide fluctuation in the amount of water falling from the artificial rain making machine makes very little impression on the volume of flow through the stream bed and at all times, it remains clear. The rain sloshes down on the plowed ground and over the hillside of the deforested area. Six inches below the surface is very little evidence that water is penetrating through the soil. The stream flows full and muddy and the catch basin in the foreground is heavy with silt and turbid as the Missouri river. When the volume of rainfall is varied, the stream responds immediately. There is nothing to catch the peak load, no litter of leaf mold, no sponge of tree rootlets opening channels into the subsoil, no marsh or back water eddies behind log and brush barricades. Multiply these two pictures by a hundred thousand and you create a Mississinewa, by four hundred thousand and a Wabash is created and you can take your choice of pictures. Traces Eel River Forty years ago, Indiana’s southern Eel river, flowing into the White at Worthington, was the deepest stream in the state. The channel measured ninety feet in depth at the wagon bridge on the old Indian-apolis-Vincennes road. Above Worthington along the borders of the river, lay marsh after marsh, forest joining to forest and the higher fertile fields between held the farm homes of the older families of agricultural wealth. Lemon creek, a smaller tributary, joined the Eel a few’ miles above town and turning west created another vast marsh. I am not writing about ducks or fish, I am writing about flood control. Otherwise this paragraph would mark the spot for me to rave through another tw r o hundred words for in those clean, clear waters of the Eel and' in the great marshes of Greene county lay the finest outdoor sport this state ever saw’. Eel river did not overflow then. In flood periods the w’aters of the Eel gradually raised and then gradually dropped over a period of weeks. There w T as no sudden, outrageous fulminating outburst of flood water that came bellowing down the channel to pour into White river a peak load of ruin far beyond the capacity of the larger channel to manage. Swamps Are Drained After a w’hile. along came a drainage expert. He saw possibilities. He persuaded the owners of the marshlands. Greed for something or other; more plow land, more money possibly brought about the final drainage of the vast swamps, A huge ! dredge cut a line as straight as the line. And the ditch tax w’as levied at $25 an acre. Today the water under the old bridge above Worthington is so shallow two flat boats that drew’ only six inches of water had to be removed I this summer to prevent grounding. When the rain falls at Johnstown, | eighteen miles up Eel dredge (Eel river no longer >, in the language of Ia Worthington old timer: ‘ Hell pops down here in about three hours.” There is no storage capacity now along Eel dredge, water runs through it as off a barn roof. Water that came down over a period of weeks and ran off into the White river made little demand on the White to carry it, but now the run-off is almost immediate and White river can not accommodate the peak load upon it. The result greatly increases the flood damage by White river from Worthington downstream and up. The fast water has carried off the soils, has filled the ninety foot channel at Worthington, has washed the banks and eroded the hillsides and passes out of the valley so quickly no water is left to carry over through the drought periods of summer. Asa direct result of all this, land in Lemon creek marsh that sold for SIOO an acre a few years ago sold for $lO an acre eighteen months ago. I can not persuade myself that draining the Eel has accomplished a single valuable result for the state. Its cost to those "benefited" will, in the long run. break them financially and if similar drainage is carried to completion in general practice throughout Indiana the next generation will ruse and call this one cursed.

—Dietz on Science — SEEK TO CURB FATALITY RATE OF APPENDICITIS Famed Physicians Diagnose Obscure and Difficult Cases at Meeting. BY DAVID DIETZ Scripps-Howard Science Editor Art and science join hands in the practice of medicine. This is being made plain this week in Cleveland, where the international medical assembly of the Interstate Postgraduate Medical Association of North America is being held. No matter how much exact knowledge of diseases, their causes and natures, is at hand, the fact remains that the medical man must apply that knowledge in eaech instance to the case of a living human being. Hence the art of dagnosis stands supreme. Gather In Cleveland And so medical men from all parts of the United States and Canada are gathered in Cleveland this week to watch a group of the world's most famous physicians and surgeons diagnose obscure and difficult cases, to listen to their comments upon the cases under observation and upon similar cases. How difficult diagnosis can be was made clear by Dr. John M. T. Finney, famous surgeon of the Johns Hopkins university medical school. Dr. Finney listed the diseases which might be confused in their early stages with an attack of appendicitis. The layman will probably stare in surprise to read that measles, mumps, pneumonia, diphtheria, shingles and blood poisoning are among the things that sometimes manifest themselves first by pains resembling an attack of appendicitis. Delay Is Dangerous Since delay in operating in a real attack of appendicitis may mean the difference between life and death, it will be seen at once that know’ing when to operate is indeed the trick of surgery. But while diagnosis is an art, it has profited by the advance of science. The invention of the X-rays, the electro-cardiograph, the methods of bacterial identification, and the like, have all contributed to the advance of diagnosis. Dr. George P. Muller, famous surgeon of Philadelphia, pointed out that appendicitis is on the increase. Medical men do not yet know’ its cause, he said. Since the average age of the 20,000 victims w’ho die annually from this disease is 28, he regards it as a more important problem Vhan cancer. Cancer Hits Old Persons Cancer, he says, kills old people. Appendicitis is killing young people. Dr. Harlow Brooks, distinguished physician of New’ York, said that the death of a great man w’as not so sad as to see him outlive his physical and mental pow’ers. Watching the convention of medical men this week, one is impressed by many things about the medical profession. First of all. the fundamental spirit of the profession. There are no secrets in the world of medicine. Here are the most eminent physicians and surgeons of Sfrie nation, wulling and eager to teach their colleagues everything they know’. Next, one is impressed by the wonderful advances in medicine. Surgeons are performing operations the like of which w’ere only dreamed of a few decades ago. Tuberculosis, for example, once a dread scourge before which the medical man was powerless, is now yielding to the knife of the surgeon. Tent cateriilars build large wreblike nests in trees and shrubbery and eventually work havoc with the foilage; they can be destroyed by spraying and crankcase oil on the nests.

After that they usually call it a draw. a a st Miller uses the modern type 1 of carcass construction —single cords run through a machine that coats them with rubber and forms them into sheets to make the body plies of the tire. There is less internal heat because each cord is completely 1 surrounded by a roating of gum that prevents rubbing of one cord against another. No cross threads as in ordinary fabric. The result is: Less Heat, Longer Wear and Greater Safety. This is just one of the manv reasons why Miller Tires are GUARANTEED IN WRIT- 1 ING to outwear any other built . . .
