at nearly half a billion dollars in the seven States. Mr. Hopkins conferred with the | Governors of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, Connecticut and Maine. New State was represented by of Governor Lehman. Nearly representatives of State and local

agencies attended the conference.

Governor Hurley of Massachusetts | suggested that regulations be suspended to permit the Reconstruction Finance Corp. to make tem-| porary loans to home owners, and | the Federal Housing Authority to make grants for rebuilding of homes and farm buildings. The death toll appeared likely to reach 630 as Mr. Hopkins reported what he had seen in the devastated | area “It is incredible.” he said. “What I have seen convinces me that the heartbreaking stories of death and destruction that brought me hurrying from the coast told but a fraction of the truth. Here is an emergency of major importance.”

More Bodies Found

New bodies were uncovered. Crippled communication lines still delayed reports, but the latest compilation by United Press showed the following deaths by states: Rhode Island. 286; Massachusetts, | 181; Connecticut, 66: New York. 63; New Hampshire, 14: Vermont, 6; New Jersey, 3; Quebec, 2. The situation was particularly acute in Portsmouth and Westerly, R.1I The specter of famine was dissolved as truckloads of food reached communities reporting shortages. At Baltic, Conn., it was necessary to! send food across a river in a breeches buoy. The threat of disease still was potent .and antityphoid serum was sped by plane and car te stricken areas Seven hundred National Guardsmen were patrolling the Cape Cod area with orders to “shoot to kill” all looters. Thirty-three looters have been arrested in Providence,’ R121 rofiteering was reported throughout the devasted area. Some dealers were reported charging as much as $1 a gallon for gasoline. Food prices also skyrocketed. Authorities warned that profiteers would be prosecuted.

Mrs. Thomas D Sheerin, mother of Miss Sheerin. who reached college officials by telephone Saturday, learned the buildings had not been damaged by the storm and that in spite of minor inconveniences classes are meeting as usual.

The wonderful up-building com-

pound Retonga has become a recognized power in invigorating the resistance of thousands of people. Its effectiveness was never more strongly evidenced than in the case of Mr. Peter F. Fleming, 528 W. Washington St., Indianapolis. Mr. Fleming formerly lived in Seymour, Ind., and is well-known there as well as in Indianapolis, and in giving the full details of his experience,

said:

“Refonga was recommended to me by Mrs. Annie Lentz, who had taken it, and I got the same splended results she did My whole system seemed to be poisoned from constipation and I felt so bad I could not get up and down stairs. I had frequent passages that got me up at all hours of the night and I was worn out. My legs pained me severely all the time and I was kept from my work a good part of the time because I was just so weakened, tired out, and in such misery I didn’t feel equal to my tasks. “My relief through Retonga was remarkable.
