Galveston Texas. With Il 65-mile
wind, high tides and heavy seas, the
tropical storm struck Galveston sun
day, tidewater from the bay flooding
the business section of the city and
the north side of the island with three
feet of water.
Huge waves broke harmlessly on
the sea wall and there was no mate
rial damage from the wind. Shipping
in this vicinity weathered the storm
and the wagon bridge across the bay
was not damaged and was soon opened
to traffic.
Two thousand feet of track on the
causeway and railroad bridge connect
ing Galveston with the mainland was
washed out, destroying rail commune
cation with the outside world, but Of
ficials of the Gulf, Colorado 4 Santa
Fe railroad said this would be repair
ed within "a hours.
At night the wind still was blowing
in gusts from 60 to 50 miles an hour
but the barometer was rising steadily
and the tide receding. The maximum
area flooded by backwater from the
| bay extended seven to nine blocks
from the bay front and the entire
length of the north side of the island.
The United States weather bureau
issued bulletin Monday saying tn,
danger to Galveston had passed, bu
urging caution because of the higl
winds With the exception of thu
street car system which was forced
to suspend service early in the day
all public utilities came through thu
storm intact
When the water backed in from thu
bay refugees began struggling through
the streets carrying bundles and ba
bies some of them in night clothes.

night The great majority of newspaper readers thnk
the issue is dull If it hasn't scandal in it, News
values do not mean much to the average reader Of a
newspaper nowadays, They have been fed on war and
its horrors long that the aftermath them The
League of Nations, the spread Bolshevism recon

er read something else. They don't wish anybody any
hard luck, but they would rather read the narrowing de
tails of crime the salacious story some sean
