Flood Scene Shifts as Delta Water Pressures Secures Greenville
Memphis April 1 The Mississippi Delta flood north of Greenville shows improved conditions. Crevasses along the Arkansas and Mississippi shores drain water from the main channel, spreading into lowlands. River decline reaches ten inches above Greenville while areas near Helena dry slowly, and numerous towns and rail lines face inundation. Relief efforts mobilize with a steamboat delivery to St Francis river country. Separately North Carolina passes an education reform act reorganizing state boards, exams, and county school governance with new permanent positions and funding rules.

It transitions to a sermon-like Alliance Advocate piece likening the Alliance to a lighthouse guiding a troubled nation, urging universal mission and adherence to truth, equity, and justice.
