At Frankfort, 2,900 convicts were
ordered moved from the floodbound
state reformatory. Twenty-four of
them broke from the prison, and1
plunged into six feet of water from
the overtaxed Kentucky River. One

Typhoid Warning Issued
Several square miles were sub-
merged in Louisville. Some 6,0001

rationed. Theatres and schools
closed. Transportation was badly
crippled. Typhoid warnings were
sounded throughout the state. ,
Between 8,000 and 10,000 left their

half the town was inundated. An
appeal for doctors was issued. The
state health department dispatched
nurses and serum by boat. Others
were ordered to isolated Maysville,
and Carrollton, Ky.

from the east sped 16 boats and 70
men to duty between Cincinnati and
Evansville.

fted Cross Branch
Seeks Flood Fund
American Red Cross aid to the
270,000 homeless in eight states will
require a minimum relief fund of two
million dollars, according to Lewis E.
Ayres, chairman of the local branch
Red Cross, and the amount to be
raised in Washtenaw County is $415,
he said.
Contributions to this disaster drive
can be made at any bank in Ann Ar-
bor or at the Red Cross office, 407
Wolverine Building, he said. The
money collected for this fund will be
used to provide food, shelter, bedding
and medical attention to the flood
sufferers, who have had their mis-
fortune heightened by blizzards and
cold weather in the Mid-West, Mr.
Ayres said.

This Associated Press map of the Ohio River vall ey, with shaded area representing country inundated
or threatened, shows the situation which prevailed as relentless rains sent swollen rivers to new high levels

more than 25,040 persons were made homeless.

business Office's 53 Employees
Spend Six Million Dollar Budget

When the state legislature deter-
mines how large past year's Univer-
sity budge~t shall be, the task of
spending the five or six million dol-
lars will fall into the hands of the
53 employes of the University busi-
ness office.
For the past fiscal year it has been
their job to spend $6,391,575.34 for
the operation of the University. In
the past year through their typewrit-
ers have gone orders for medicine and
bandages for the Health Service, food
and table cloths for the dormitories,
lawn mowers, boxing gloves, 90 tons
of bells, miles of paper, automobiles,
coal, cadavers, comptometers, books,
rabbits and mice, but of these mil-
lions of dollars the greatest number
go for something intangible. Sixty
per cent, or more than three million
dollars, is accounted for by one word:
instruction.
4,411 Pay Checks
This means pay checks for the 4,-
411 University employes. The College
of Literature, Science and the Arts
receives the largest share of this
money, $1,303;963.24, and the salaries
of those in this college amount to
more than $1,190,000. In accounting
for the 60 per cent given for instruc-

tion, the medical school is next with
$454,021. used for salaries. It must
be remembered, according to Herbert
G. Watkins, assistant secretary of.
the University, that some of those in
the medical school receive money
from the University Hospital budget
that is exclusive of the University
budget.
Open Through Year
The College of Engineering is next
with $459,530, of which $422,784 is
used to pay salaries. After the 60
per cent used for instruction, the
next largest portion of the budget is
the 11.2 per cent used for operation
and maintainance of the physical
plant. General expenses are next
with a 7.65 per cent cut of the six
million dollar budget.
Besides the accounting and pur-
chasing activities, the business office
is concerned with miscellaneous du-
ties such as reminding the campus of
the regulation regarding smoking in
University buildings, operating a lost
and found bureau, issuing parking
permits, and investing trust funds in
stocks, bonds and mortgages.
It stays open throughout the year,
including summer and Christmas va-
cations, Mr. Watkins said,
