C., Monday Afternoon, April 24, 19(22 3c Per Copy s BREAK IN LEVEES i VERY DISASTROUS New Orleans, April 23.?Hope of closing the break in the Mississippi i levee which occurred at Myrtle Grove, ( 30 miles south of this city, was aban- < doned today after it had widened to approximately 125 feet despite the ef- ; fort of the levee engineers to close , the gap and confine the river to its | regular channel. Engineers hope to be able to "tie" 1 the ends of the levee with tarpaulins j and let the water run through over | the already inundated land. While it is impossible to estimate | the damage done by the break at \ Myrtle Grove, plantation men today . expressed the opinion that at least , $1,000,000 damaco had already hoon - ' I done. The Deer Range Plantation com- | pany is the heaviest loser. This company owns about 6,000 acres of land , in the inundated area, planted mostly ( in sugar cane. Owners of the plan- ( tation say it will require at least , three . years of harvesting before , enough seed can be raised to proceed with the conduct of the plantation on j the scale maintained before the flood. Oyster and shrimp beds and trap- ( ping are other industries which will suffer largely as a result of the break. As a protection to plantation settlements, back levees were cut in several , places but the flood waters continued to spread over large areas of land with no appreciable let up.

LOW COAL DEMAND F DOMINANT FACTOR Washington, April 23.?Lack of demand, rather than strike conditions, id continues to hold down bituminous th coal production according to latest tr figures assembled by the United nt States geological survey. On Tues- lif Jay and Wednesday of last week, th however, the output jumped to above ro 11,000 car loads per day, against he 7,917 cars on Monday, the low point sv registered by the effect of Easter st holidays. For the week ending April ar 15 the bituminous output of the country was placed at 3,675,000 tons, and ro the survey report observed that he 'more coal could be produced if the C< demand increased, since the full ca- se pacity of non-union fields has not yet di been brought out." th From the union standpoint, "the Gi strike is running along in a normal di fashion," the United Mine Workers fir declared in a statement today. Ef- bi forts to get non-union miners to join fU their organized craft fellows were be asserted to be progressing most satisfactorily, with approximately 80,000 ei nf the now out, "and good reason for ar the prediction that the coming week th will add 25,000 more." The advance ro jf the union into unorganized fields he was declared to be most effective in th Westmoreland, Fayette, and Greene M counties, Pennsylvania, which are at sources of steel industry coke. th Mention of the various legal pro- N ceedings resulting from the strike ro was made in the union's discussion gl if the stiuation and reference to the approaching treason trials in West d? Virginia, where leaders of the so- th jailed "miners' army" which ad- as eanced to close non-union coal oper- ba ators "whose lawyers are leading the de ?ases, rather than state of West Vir- dr ijinia," the mine workers said, "dis- a dosed the real purpose behind these Co indictments" was to "break up the H miners' union and drive it out of e<i West Virginia.
