EAST BATTLING SNOW
Zero Weather Is Prevailing-Some
Relief Promised.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, January 2S-Colder
weather, with the thermometer fall
ing between and degrees above
zero today, is the prediction of the
New York weather observer Later
today the mercury was expected to
rise to about 20 degrees, bringing
some relief from the icy winds that
swept the Middle Atlantic and New
England States yesterday. More snow
and higher temperatures are expected
tomorrow.
The metropolitan district awoke
this morning under a blanket of four
inches of snow that had been flung
down yesterday and during the night
on a northeast wind, which at times
attained a velocity of 40 miles an
hour. The gale, coursing down New
York and New England coasts, swept
across New Jersey and other Atlantic
States.
Traffic lines throughout the district
were hard hit by New York's third
snowstorm of this Winter Subways
were delayed by extra congestion, ele-
waited railroads were impeded by icy
rails; many streets were impossible
to motors and surface cars were
halted by ice-locked switches.

Four thousand employees of the
Street Cleaning Department battled
against the snow drifts and today
10000 additional men were to Join
their forces. From am, when the
first rain which soon turned to sleet
and then snow, fell, the mercury
dropped from 81 degrees to above at
10 o'clock last night.
Throughout New York State and
the East the cold fingers of Winter
sripped towns, cities, hamlets and
rural districts. In Buffalo, the mer-
curry fell to l degree below zero and
in Rochester 1t was / degree above
In many points in the northern and
northwestern sections Of the State be-
.ow zero was recorded.
Philadelphia last night reported the
worts blizzard of the Winter. Snow
drifts of from to feet delayed
traffic and added to the discomfort
caused by the drop of the ther-
mometer to 16 above zero.

the sympathy and the cooperation
of every thoughtful colored man.
