The Knnsas river and some of its tributaries tonight were reported falling, thus removing the imme diate danger of threatened disas trous floods in northern Kansas. In southern Kansas, however, thn valleys of many streams were be* ing inundated. Thousands of acres of rich farm lands were covered with water. Arkansas City and Winfield, in south central Kansas, the cities hardest hit, tonight were under K itiol of Amorican Legion an.} nnfias national gdardsmen. Ked Cross and other agencies were en deavoring to • care for the home-- less. The chamber of commerce at Arkansas City appealed to other cities for $500,000 to aid the flood .Nliffrri'rji. . * * sufferers The chamber estimated the dam age at Arkansas City at more than $3,000,000, at Winfield the damage was estimated between $1,000,000 und $1,600,000. At Wichita, where damage in excess of $1,000,000 waa caus«d by flooding of four square nfiles in the cast section of the city Satur day, the situation was reported greatly improved tonight• Hun dreds of men were working at top •peed to prevent further breaks in the dams. At Garden City the crest of the flood waters in the big Arkansas was reported past and danger of floods west of Hutchinson seemed removed. \ Although many were reported miMing ut Arkansas City and 3,- 000 were homeless, only one person Is known to have lost his life. Warnings were sent out today to resu-'ents of East Wichita, stating that an additional rise could be ex- oected on Chisholm creek. . C. D.
