MORGAN MAY JOIN IN GERMAN LOAN. New York, April 24.?J. P. Morgan today announced his acceptance of the allied reparations commission's invitation to become a member of the committee which will consider flotation of an internatonal loan for Ger',;manv. He wll sail for Europe about the middle of May. Mr. Morgan indicated that the proposal loan to Germany would be a popular loan to which the people of the United States and other allied countries would be asked to subscribe. "With good terms and on good security, he said, he believed such a loan could be placed. "America, of course, is very important in this foreign loan situation," he said. "The question I am asked is whether, if so, on what terms a German loan can be placed in this country. . "I think I can be useful and I am going over about the middle of May. personal matters preventing- me from sailing before that time." Mr. Morgan said he would cable I his formal acceptance of the invitation tonight. Mr. Morgan declined to estimate what amount of German bonds could DC soia m ine American marKei. inexpressed the hope that, if the terms were satisfactory, conditions for such a loan were excellent at this time. Asked whether he thought the loan would clear away the chief obstacles to Europe's rehabilitation, he said: "Now you are getting into politics." "My interest in the situation," he explainer, "is merely to advise what j the United States can do to help out | the loan plan." j When a man thinks he is sighing for the good old days he is merely j sighing for his vanished youth. i . I ENGINEERS THINK | LEVEES WILL HOLD. Memphis. April 24.?With the crest of the third rise in the Mississippi expected at Cairo tomorrow night accurate predctions <m the height the flood waters will attain in the central and lower river can be made Tuesday night, United States weather bureau --tvo! ' '1 trtnio-Vtt Thp Cairo OII.JCiU.lS> fstim ? ?auge recorded 53 tonight. The fight to hold the embankments at threatened points between! Cairo and Vicksburg had stiil been successful up to tonight and engineers expressed confidence of the central river levees ; holding safely. The most serious situation tonight is apparently seven miles south of Hickman. Ivy., wheer a swift current is undermining the banks outside the levee and where caving has occurred for several days. Farming operations in that section are practically suspended and every available man is at work on the river front where the situation tonight was said to be well in hand. South of Arkansas City, Ark., the ! situation is still critical although the engineers claim a break there will be prevented. ' Vickshnrg, Miss., April 24.?Levee engineers reported that a bad slough . had occurred late today , on the land j side of the Mississippi river levee at I Milliken Bend, La., near the Arkansas state lirie. Men rushed to the scene are now engaged in an effort to prevent a break. The river was practically stationery throughout this district. All weak places in the lines were said to be under control. Natchez, Miss., April 24.?All levees are holding in the Fifth Louisiana district and with largely increased forces of men at the various points; where trouble has developed the situation today seemed more encouraging. MRS. J. A. WISE. Mrs. J. A. Wise was born February 11, 1882, died March 26, 1922, making her age 40 years, 1 month and 15 days. She leaves to mourn her loss besides her husband, 9 children living, 3 dead. She also leaves father and mother, 4 sisters and 3 brothers one brother having preceded her to the great beyond. Dearest mother, thou has'left us, And our loss we deeply feel; But it's God that has bereft us, He can all our sorrows heal. i Y--*z again we hope to meet thee, When tiie day uf life is f:ed, ] ; * | When in heaven in joy to gv?5oi thee, ! Where no farewell tears are shed. Peaceful be thy silent slumber, Peaceful in thy grave so low Thou no more will join our number. I Thou no more our sorrows know. > ! Mother through all pain at time she'd smile, A smile of heavenly birth; And when the angels called her home, She smiled farewell to earth. ' Heaven retaineth now our treasure Earth the lonely casket keeps; And the sunbeams love to linger Where our sainted mother sleeps. I { Precious mother, she has left us, ' Left, us, yes. forever more; But we hope to meet our loved one . On that bright and happy shore. i i Lonely the house and sad the hours Since our dear one has gone: I But oh! a brighter home than ours, | In heaven is now her own. I | Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep. | From which none ever wake to! weep. , ^| ! A calm and undesturbed repose, ; Unbroken by the last of foes. ! I ; Asleep in Jesus! far from thee . I i Thy kindred and their graves may! ! be: * i i Hut thine is still a blessed sleep From which n<>ne ever wake to weep. A precious ?>ne from us has gone I A voice wo lave is stilled; ! A place is vacant in our home, j Which never can be filled. j (Sod in His wisdom has recalled, The boon his love had given. And though the body slumbers her*.'. The soul is safe in heaven. I ! Farewell dear mother but not forever, There will be'a glorious dawn : ' We shall meet to part no never! On the resurrection morn. I Though thy darling form lies sleeping In the cold and silent tomb, Thou shalt have a glorious waking When the blessed Lord doth come. By Husband and Children.
