Pittsburgh.-A score of city blocks
In the lower sections were inundated
and sections for several miles ur
stream laid waste when both the AL
legheny and Monongahela rivers, meet
ing here to form the Ohio, left their
banks, Sunday, March 80, in Pitts
burgh's greatest flood in 10 years. No
loss of life was reported.
Much damage was caused to steel
mills located along the river banks.
Tracks of both the Baltimore &
Ohio and Pittsburgh & Lake Erie rail
roads were flooded in sections. Many
families were forced to leave their
homes.
In western Maryland the flood
waters of Wills creek and the Potomac
river left scenes of desolation in their
wake. A small section of Cumberland,
Md, was under water. Ridgely and
Dixie, two towns on the West Virginia
side of the Potomac, were inundated,
as was a wide area in the lower Po-
tomac valley.
Great havoc was wrought, but so
far as could be learned, no casualty
resulted. Many miles of railroad track
were washed away, two big steel
bridges and a number of structures
were destroyed, while hundreds of
buildings and houses were damaged
and in some instances washed away.
Preparations were under way for
relief work, but it was believed that
local organizations would be able to
handle the situation. Until the plans
for relief work are perfected, those in
need were being cared for by the
people of their respective communi-
ties.

assumed the proportions of a tornado
and elsewhere manifested itself by
driving snow and hail. High winds
with falling temperatures marked its
progress.
The storm played havoc with wire
communication facilities, some sec
lions of the northwest being practi-
cally cut off as a result of a terrific
sleet storm. The Associated Press
again resorted to radio to maintain
communications with Minneapolis, st.
