13 - From the toD of the great
dvke which holds back the ag
pressive waters of the Zuider Zm
there stretches out before vou on
the land side as far as the eve can
ror-ch a scene of devastation that
is logecd in United Nations rec
ords as one of the meanest war
crimes of the Na-is.
This "as the floodin" of the
proat W'oringermeer farm eol-
nnv of 49 000 acres bv dvnar't

Zu'cr Zee
Throe v'llapos and 512 farms

17. 194", just before their sur
render. But vou can't boat the Dutch
that wav. fod'.v. oplv ton months
Mtor the floodin". the groat elec
tric pnmns of the dovelonment
have drained the land, and the
farmers a'roadv ore Ktartlnp to
plow for the 19-16 croo. To be
sure, the snuc homes and barns
have boon dot'oved and the
formers with their families live
miles- w" in surrnundini? towns
hut the land hasn't been ruined
because forsooth, te waters of
the Zuider Zee aren't salt.
Beast Invades Paradise
The colony was brand new, for
the land v-as reclaimed from the
sea onlv 15 vears aeo. Th gov
ernment had built the tidv houses
and amn'o bamc and had cen.
structod tt'-'oe villages as w-ntl.
The colonists rented from the
government.
The farmers ond their wives
wore vnuthful folk lust startin"
out in l'fe. The who'e great area
throbbed with youth, and the
birthrate was so hoavv that ba
bi' prow on evorv bnn.
The land blossomed. The colon
ists were hnpnv and the eovern
ment was as nroud as punch over
its rondel exoeriment. Into this
Arcadian scene stalled the beast.
Th Bosche lonp had hated the
colonists because the latter were
ant'-Nai and there were manv
underground workers among
them. So the invaders, even
though thev wore about to sur
render, flooded thp hapov Eden.
The Hitlerites blow two hupe
pans in the tall dvke and the
little Dutch boy's thumb couldn't
cope with that. The flood tore
throuph the oneninps and cov
ered the land to a depth of 15
feet in nlaces. The Germans did
notify the colonv a few hours in
advance so that there was no loss
of human life and only two per
cent of the cattle were drowned.
But the lovelv farm houses and
the villaees with their handsome
churches and ouhlle buildings
targelv dissolved in th waters.
Even the trees were killed.
