TO Save DISTRICT
Bayou Black Section in Flood
District Takes Drastic Action

New Orleans, June 3 Pl-Resi-
dents of the Bayou Black section in
the lower Atchafalaya basin We're
awaiting today with more confidence
the passing of the greatest flood in
the history OF the valley owing to
the blowing up OF a dam which held
back the flood waters late yesterday.
Bayou Black, a part of the intro
coastal waterways systems and the
principal route of water travel be-
tween Houma and Morgan City, was
damned up several weeks ago when
it was feared that the flood waters
would inundate farm lands below.
The residents above the dam pro-
tested at once, but no action was
taken until yesterday, at mass
meeting. when it was announced
that the dame would be blown up
and that no interference would be
brooked. Two hundred citizens i'm
mediately began preparations to
carry out their plans. Guards were
stationed so that there would be no
danger to persons in the vicinity and
several charges of dynamite set off.
The relief afforded by the action is
expected to remove all danger of
inundation above the dam and is
not expected to endanger Houma
and the section below.
