grounds for tourists were given up

was also taken.

CHANNEL, NOT BRIDGE,
BLAMED BY OFFICIALS

Residents of the west end of town
who claim damage because of the
floods last December in Tutuilla creek
probably will have to fight for their
money. This much was gained today
from city officials who looked over
the district this morning to consider
the claims presented at the last meet
ing of the council by four alleged
sufferers from the flood.
The finance committee, Mayor
Vaughan and City Attorney James A.
Fee virtually decided that the city and
county are not responsible for the
swollen waters backing up. Tutuilla
creek spread out over the flat before
ever bridge was placed there, Mayor
Vaughan said, and the bridge, if any
thing. holds back the water instead of
making it spread out. When Tutuil-
Ia creek is flooding it would require a
75-foot channel to carry off the wat
er, he said. Owing to the large area
drained by the little stream. it is i'm
possible, the mayor said, to prevent
floods with the present channel.
