(AP) Re ports received here from all parts of the British isles testify to tbe violence of the storm which swept Great Britain and Ireland last night and today. The gale reached a velocity of nearly & hundred miles an hour in parts of Ireland. Londoners, kept awake during the long night, heard a sixty mile wind, interspersed with sheets of rain,-rip tiles off their roofs and wreck their radio aerials. Tel-. phones and telegraphs were com pletely crippled. The experiences of London were mild, however, compared with those of the north country and Ireland. Ireland still was virtual ly isolated tonight and communi cations were only beginning to be established with the northern counties. Property damage was particu larly heavy along the Clyde. where in addition to the havoc wrought by a seventy-five mile wind, large areas were inundated by heavy rains. All shipping, in cluding trans-Atlantic had to be suspanded. The Anconia reached dock just as the storm was burst ing.
