SURVIVOR TELLS OF GREAT STORM
Describes His Experiences in
 Miami During Hurricane

Washington, Sept. 22 P-How the people of Miami and surround ing towns stood helpless in their homes during the hurricane blast, was told here today by L. Gibbon White, Washington business man, who went through the adventure at Coral Gables.
 White spent the day and night of the storm in the resort city, watch ing the wreckage of the area around him. His own home withstood the battering. But he said half the struc- lures in Coral Gables were utterly wrecked.
 "A wind sprung up Friday mid night, blowing with increasing vio- Ilence,' MT. White said. The gale rose hicher and higher until 1t seemed impossible for anything to stand. l arose and watched the street lights disappear one by one or in rows and then the lights went off in my own house. Trees were going down right and left around us and there was a continuous crashing audible on all sides. The wind was roaring through the blackness carrying solid sheets of water when the windows commence ed to smash in my home. Nothing was visible and all you could do was hang on and wonder whether any thing would stand. After s or hours of this, the blowing stopped
 for an hour just at daylight and
 went out to see the whole residence district around me wrecked.
 But hardly had we gotten our
 bearings when the wind bounced
 down again, this time from the op- iposite direction, and the rain came
 with it in solid sheets. Back in the
 house again this time with the din daylight making the neighborhoot
 fairly visible we went through the nights experience again. Water wa: standing all around and light pole! : and trees and glass were dashinE over the surface. I saw no men ol foot venture out throughout the da, but I caught momentary glimpes 0 two automobiles which attempted t move but which were zig aggin, , over the pavement almost helples | under the impact of the gale. Whel the storm blew itself out late in tn : day we again went out of doors an l discovered an indescribable scene o , wreckage.
 :, 'In Miami some of the larges , buildings are leaning. The onl :, structures that withstood the gal - were the reinforced concrete an "A brick buildings of the heavies
 weight and the roofs and the wir
 dows of these suffered badly. Peopl
 who died were those caught in tl
 destruction of their homes. My in
 pression is that all the stucco hous,
 which were so numerous caved } and l rather believe that the casualt s list is greater than reported since 3 takes an excavation in each case
 find people. Certainly new bull,
 ings will have to be heavier ar N solder than those which have bee
 customarily built in the past"

MARKET OPENS UP
 WELL, GROWS WEAK
Court Rules Against Demand by
 Trade Commission

New York, Sept. 22 R'-stock prices displayed a complete reversal of form in today's marks, opening | strong in response to aggressive buy ing operations by professional trad CTS, but turning weak in the early | afternoon when bears gained the upper hand and started to ham, mer stocks in all sections of the list.
 There was nothing in the days news to account for the sudden change in speculative sentiment, but the maintenance of high call money rates and reports that banks were marking down the loaning value on special speculative issues, probably was an important factor. Directors of the New York Federal Reserve bank hold their regular weekly meeting after the close of the mar ket tomorrow and the possibility of an increase in the rediscount rate at that time may also have been an influence in the selling movement
 The reaction started in such re- cent favorites as allied chemical, American Smelting and U. s. Steel, with selling of the last-named prob ably inspired by the announcement of a cut in steel scrap prices In Chicago. International cement and electric refrigeration were driven to new low levels for the year. Low and medium priced motors were thrown onto the market in large volume on reports that third quar- terIy earnings of several companies
 would not come up to earlier ex- I pectations, although General Motors continued to receive strong buying
 support.
 Trading showed marked falling off in volume and was essentially Of
 a professional character. the cratic price movements of the last few
 weeks and the uncertainty over the
 credit situation having a tendency to restrict public participation.

Walcott, Dr. Walter Steiner and G. T. Kimball.
 Making use of reports of previ- ous commissions, the board is trying to classify the waters of the state:
 Glass A-Unpolluted streams. Class B-Partially polluted streams, capable of being improved within time. Class Gladly polluted waters which cannot be im- proved in the near future.
 'The policy of the board is to pre-. vent at all hazards any pollution of class A waters; to better the condt- tion of class B streams by steadily insisting on cleaning measures; to insist that class c streams become no worse than they are.
 "In the matter of procedure, the board will first try to persuade the state of Connecticut to clean up. Secondly, the efforts of the board are directed toward inducing muni- cipalities to install sewage treating plants so that the effluent is not dangerous to health nor to fish life. Together with this effort, the manu- lecturers are being asked to CO., operate with the municipalities by | treating their wastes before allowing them to mingle with the sanitary sewage. Factories which discharge
 directly into streams are being per
 suaded to neutralize their wastes l before leaving their premises
 Thirdly, all other manufacturing
 wastes are being studied with inten1
 to insist that when known reason
 able remedy for pollution exists, I
 should be installed.
 'The board has received man! complaints and has considered then carefully. We have received courte
