Governor Says Flood Area Needs Federal Assistance
Topeka, Kan.—(U.P.)—Gov. Edward F. Arn of Kansas, commenting that "we have by no means recovered from the flood," said today the problem of rehabilitation is of national scope "and not only justifies, but requires, federal assistance."
Arn said the devastation wrought by the swirling waters of the Kaw and its tributaries is so great that complete rehabilitation cannot come from the meager finances of townships, counties, cities or the state.
"It itens fantastic," the governor told a convention of the League of Kansas Municipalities in a Topeka meeting Monday, "to estimate the loss to physical property in this state at $2,000,000,000, but that figure is substantially correct.
"Remember," Arn added, "between 19,000 and 20,000 families were made homeless by the flood. Farm loss alone amounted to more than $76,000,000."
The governor said the state will have a "snappy, short, constructive" session of the legislature to deal with flood problems anytime it appears necessary, "but we will not have one just for show," he said.
Two faculty members will speak at the second annual state conference for counselors and school administrators at Kansas State Teachers college, Emporia Saturday, Sept. 22.

Nichols said that the films serve a number of interests. They give foreign language students an opportunity to see language in action, and also depict the cultural aspects, living conditions, and customs of other countries. They give a demonstration of what other countries can do in the theater.
Dean Thomas Gorton of the School of Fine Arts is manager of the University Concert course.
"The films also help us to be more world-minded." Mr. Nichols added.
"The film series was begun to follow the change in student interest," Mr. Nichols said. "Some of the film series movies had an attendance of 2,500."
The lecture series was started in 1928 and included such international figures as Admiral Richard Byrd, Amelia Earhart, and Richard Halliburton.

Fights To Save Penny Postcard
Washington—(U.P.)—Rep. Edwin Arthur Hall (R.—N.Y.), said today he would make a last ditch fight to keep the penny postcard from jumping to two cents because "it's a crime" to abolish the "poor man's letter."
Charging two cents for a postcard, Hall said, would be "a sales tax" on the only remaining "cheap way of communication."
However, Chairman Tom Murray,
(D.—Tenn.), of the House post office
committee predicted that a bill to
raise an extra $138,400.00 a year by
boosting postal rates would be
passed easily with little or no
change.
McCarthy—Sen, William Benton, (D.—Conn.), said that a Senate elections subcommittee probably would refuse to let McCarthy cross-examine him on his proposal to examine McCarthy's qualifications as a senator.
Jessup-Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, (R.-Wis.), said he wants to "give the facts on Philip C. Jessup" to a special senate foreign relations committee. The subcommittee was set up Monday to look into the qualifications of Jessup, now U.S. ambassador at large, and nine other appointees to the American delegation at the United Nations. McCarthy has accused Jessup of membership in five Communist-front groups.
Other congressional developments: Lithofold—Sen, Karl E. Muntd, (R.-S.D.), said that "serious discrepancies" have popped up between closed-door testimony of Cecil A. Green, Washington representative of the American Lithofold corporation, and disclosures in Monday's open hearings.
I. P.R.—Mrs. Alice Widener, New York City writer and public speaker, was called to testify on the Institute of Pacific Relations before the Senate internal security committee.
U.S. Student Plans School In Africa
Bowling Green, O. (U.P.)-The ambition of a Nigerian graduate student at Bowling Green State University is to start a combination school and college in his native land.
Fanasi Onuwanambe Mgbake, the 27-year-old student, will return to his home town, Enugwu Ukwu, Nigeria, when he graduates next June. The school he intends to begin there will include all the grades from kindergarten through college. His school will be conducted as much like American ones as possible.
Mgbako anticipates an inadequate supply of books and teachers. He plans to overcome the problem of teachers by limiting the college work in his school to teacher training for the first few years.
Mgbako had difficulty in getting his own education. His home town school has only six grades. He had to travel 16 miles to attend a high school operated by Irish missionaries.
'Cum Laude' Tryouts Set
For 7 p.m. Today in Green
Tryouts for "Cum Laude," the first major production this year by the department of speech and drama, will be held at 7 p.m. today at the Little theater in Green hall.
Harold Harvey, instructor in speech and director of the production, said a cast of 100 singers, dancers and actors is needed for the variety-type show which will be presented in Fraser theater four nights beginning Wednesday, Oct. 24.
Positions are also open for stage technicians.
A trade delegation already has been appointed, they said, and will lose no time in signing a pact with Moscow for scarce products cut off by Britain.
Deputy Premier Hossein Fatemi said last weekend that Russia had offered the materials. Only two days earlier, Britain cut off shipments of scarce goods to Iran in retaliation for Iran's nationalizing Britain's oil interests.
In addition to the Soviet offer, two other iron curtain nations—Poland and Czechoslovakia—have placed orders for large quantities of crude oil from Iran.
2. Block Iran from reaching any oil agreement with Britain.
1. Help Iran over the British economic boycott.
The moves were regarded here as a double-barreled Communist effort to:
Such threats, they said, would fall flat.
Authoritative sources in London, meanwhile, viewed Iran's economic flirtations with iron curtain nations as a final trump card to intimidate Britain into bowing on the oil dispute.
Whatever deal premier Mohammed Mossadegh makes with Russia, the sources said, would not force Britain into acceptance of his 15-day ultimatum, still not sent. Iran announced yesterday the ultimatum would be dispatched directly to London since U.S. Mediator W. Averell Harriman declined to forward it.
The ultimatum declares that Britain's remaining 300 oil technicians will be expelled from Iran in 15 days unless Britain agrees to reopen oil negotiations on Iranian terms.
Fatemi said yesterday that 15 days after delivery of the ultimatum, Iran would move ahead with its nationalization program. In addition, he said, the government would soon float a national loan.
Special ceremonies honoring Lt.
Richard E. Longarioli, college senior,
for "expert maneuvering of a plane"
will be held today at Brgrer, Texas.
Honor Pilot For Tactics
The incident occurred Sept. 14 when Longarini was enroute from the Amarillo air base to the U.S. Naval air base at Olatbe
Flying 7,000 feet over the Canadian river, Longarini reported engine trouble on his Grumman Bearcat. He decided not to bail out because of the danger of crashing into some homes.
He crash landed on a highway after difficult maneuvering which carried the plane above the house-tops.
The plane was taken to Amarillo Sept. 14 for investigation to determine the cause of the crash.
The pilot said he was thrown against the instrument panel by the force of the impact when the plane struck the ground. Eight stitches were taken in the right side of his head at a Borger hospital.
Two Killed, Five Missing In Jet Crash On Carrier
Tokyo— (U.P.) — Two men were killed, five are missing and 15 were injured in the crash of a Banshee jet fighter plane on the deck of the Aircraft Carrier Essex, the Navy announced today.
Four other planes were destroyed and four damaged in the fire that followed the crash last Sunday. The F2M, returning from a mission over North Korea, was screaming in for a landing when it hopped two barriers used to halt high speed landing planes and plowed into other jets lined up on the forward flight deck.
