The ice jam withstood an aerial at.
tack. by one plane when 400 pounds
Of dynamite were dropped from a
height OF 300 feet The explosion tore
\ great hole in the ice. but failed to
release the food.
Twenty-Five thousand residents Of
Omaha. Council Bluffs and lowlands

City were prepared to Zee to high
ground as the river continued to rise.
Reports indicated the wall of wa
ter behind Sargents Blur gorge might
be released momentarily.
Families were prepared to move the
moment they receive the flash" that
the gorge has broken.
The river receded slightly when new
channels were cut through the rich
tarm lowiands. but again started to
rise. The water was rising six inches
per hour at the point where the Mis-
souri, and Floyd converge.
Many have already been driven
from their homes and jewellers up
and down the river for 100 miles had
their belongings packed. ready to Zee
