PJBE FOURTEEN1 E AFTERJAMPAGE DENVER, Colu., Aug. .-(AP) Cherry creek flowed docilely In Its concrete-lined channel today, bear ing no resemblance to the roaring torrent which took three lives and did damage pcu'.Lily In excess of a million dollars. Denver realdents long had feared what happened soon after midnight yesterday the collapse of the Castle wood dam, 35 miles upstream. The granite masonry structure, construct ed 44 yeara ago, fcas been a menace for 20 years and engineers frequently pronounced It unsafe. A cloudburst In the plains country east of Castle Rock, where the dam Is located, brought down sufficient water to cause the break. Damage to Denver was confined to bridges 12 of them were taken out by the flood the warehouse section and the Country Club residential district through which the creek runs. The largest portion of the estimated damage 8800.000 was that to farmers along the course of the stream from the dam to the city limits. A heavy death toll was averted through the quick action of Hugh Paine, caretaker at the dam. The storm knocked down telephone lines but he rode horseback 12 miles to Castle Rock and notified Denver po lice the dam had collapsed. A dozen police cars, sirens shrieking, went through the lowlands and warned residents to flee, HEARS DUG TALK Eagle Point Orange met In regular session August 1. Visitors were Mr, and Mrs. O. C.

INITIAL STEP FOR (Continued from Page One) maater genenU'e of flea baa dona ttie shopping for O. C O. Decision to focu final authority for equipment purchase on Fecfhner cam aa ft result of iiutltent rum blings Just under the aurface that federal money waa being wasted. The National Whirligig learned and reported that nearly a quarter million canvas cote were bought at prices ranging from $3.10 to 93.35, whereas specifications for the regular army at that time placed the maximum al lowable at 93.45. One of the Innovation .the New Deal plana to present In Washington la a federal salary adjuster. The Idea has been talked over at White House meetings of the auper advlsory council and seems to have clicked. Pirating of employes by va rious of the emergency organisations brought the matter up. It seems that quite a lot of high- pressure gentlemen have come to town to ahove temporarily at the gov ernment wheel. They've been used to efficiency In their own office and expect It here. Consequently they shop around. When a girl or man la found with particular recommendations she or he la bought over at a higher wage. . This Is possible under existing con ditions in the government establish ment. Under the Economy Act and other previous laws, federal pay can't be increased during the depression .period In the old departments. Also, werybody working In them gets a 16 per cent sock In the nose. Most of the emergency setups are free from these restrictions, however. Thus it is easy for a man in NRA or the Tennessee Valley Authority Just to name two to offer aome crack stenographer or secretary or statis tician now working In one of the regular departments 9300 to 9500 a year extra to Jump. This has been going on only In the 91800 to 93000 salary claswa. But that's where the bulk of your taxes is spent so far as the payroll la con cerned. After all these years of storm and strife, Uncle Sam la about to get himself some accurate and compre- se naive figures on unemployment. They'll be ready In about a month. The Federal Emergency Relief Ad ministration Is preparing them under the guidance of Chief Statistician Corrlngton Gil. fluch flgurrs will be Invaluable. The labor and commerce departments and the American Fed eration of Labor have been estimat ing pretty closely, but the forthcom ing schedule Is advertised to be with out gueuwork and carried out to the Nth degree. Five thousand unit, covering every county In the country, are furnish ing the reports. They are to be broken down so one can tell how many are getting direct and Indirect relief and exactly how many are out of work In any given Joo&lity. Ruch HUGH.
