Kansas City Hit By Gale
Tiuinls Ft.. II.... I
near oiuim onceps new
Jersey.
Kansas City, Aug. 26. (IPy
A terrific windstorm, approach
ing hurricane force, struck Kan
sas City last night inflicting
extensive property damage and
paralyzing traffic for nearly an
hour.
Three huge radio towers
were blown over, store fronts
smashed, trees uprooted and
f cornices pitched into normally
busy downtown streets.
The spire of the First Presby
terian church in Kansas City.
Kas., was blown onto the roof
while 20 Boy Scouts were meet
ing in the basement. Owen
Tharp, the scoutmaster, kept the
boys singing until the storm
abated sufficiently to permit
them to leave the building.
One of the walls was damaged
as the spire fell.
The 544-foot broadcasting tow
er of radio station KMBC in
suburban Johnson county, Kas.,
crashed onto the home of Frank
Angus.
Mrs. Angus, her son Donald.
10, and her daughter Dorothy,
13, fled to the basement at the
start of the storm and escaped
injury.
The 80,000-pound tower fell
with such force that a steel
beam was driven a foot and a
half into a concrete roadway.
A nearby 275-foot emergency
tower of KMBC also collapsed.
Newark, N. J., Aug. 28. (IP)
Houses without roofs or sides
and bare foundations stood to
day as grim evidence of a freak
storm that struck swiftly in scat
tered parts of New Jersey to
leave a toll of two dead, about
SO injured and many homeless.
Sections of Delaware and
Pennsylvania also suffered yes
terday from high winds and
heavy rains to send property
damage mounting. Charleston,
W. Va., reported Its heaviest
rain of the year with streets
and cellars flooded.
Woodbridge, 18 miles south
of here, and Swedesboro, 17
miles southwest of Camden, felt
the brunt of the cyclonic wind
attack that whirled across New
Jersey and was followed by tor
t rential rains.
George Hemple, about 35, a
milkman, was killed in Swedes
boro when a smokestack at the
Edgar F. Hurff canning plant
toppled on his truck. Four
plant employes were badly In
jured and several others suf
fered minor hurts as four other
smokestacks tumbled before the
fury of the wind.

SHE DELAYED
San Francisco, Aug. 28. (IP)
Pacific Greyhound buses In
seven western states operated
as usual today under terms of
a new truce that averted a walk
out of 1,3000 AFL drivers and
terminal employes of the com
pany, threatened for midnight
last night.
Company and union represen
tatives made enough progress in
day-long negotiations over a
new working contract yesterday
that they agreed to hold more
conferences, and the union ad'
vanced the strike deadline to
next Friday midnight.
The union has asked various
wage increases, improved work'
ing conditions, and union rec
ognition under an NLRB ruling.
A specific difficulty has been
over the union's demand for a
mountain-driving differential.
Present pay scales have not
been disclosed.

hound drivers from their wheels
in California, Oregon, Utah, Ari
zona, New Mexico, Nevada and
Texas.

must be assessed at 60 per cent

capricious and not according to

ried into courts if necessary.
