Missing in the flood is the sud den and powerful destruction of an atomic attack. But there are some similarities. High waters have knocked out "reat industrial districts. Com munications have been cut, trans portation crippled. In one flooded section of Kansas city an oil and gasoline fed fire raged four days. Numerous bridges linking Kan sas City, Kas., and Kansas City, Mo., and other areas have been rendered useless. Water supplies are curtailed the city garbage dis posal plant is flooded. Thousands of persons have been displaced. Water has swept through and over thousands of homes Yet there has been practically no panic. And while receding wa ters may uncover additional drown ings, thus far there have been few known deaths. Why? These seem to be the major rea sons: 1. An informed public. 2. Preparedness and quick action by public officials, c i v i 1 i a n de fense groups and fire and police ucpanmenis. Newspapers and radio stations in both states have made a tre mendous effort to keep the public alert to dangers and aware of needs in disaster areas. Shelter and food were npartllv available for refugees. I he panic of the past was mis sing. ' In 1900 a flood at r.alvostnn Tex., brought death to 4,500 to 6,000. In 1913 Indiana and Ohio floods cost 730 lives. In 1927 K MissisMni U flood took 423 lives. This flooikhas been more costly tylineywise.1' But the known death toll is just 17. nuni-iu-i,unu-iu-MKi a double oiav Wee practice baseball as Freddie Hargis scoops up a hard-hit grounder and flings it to Willie Logan at second.
