ATLANTA, Ga, April 25.--Flood
waters which have driven thousands
from their homes in six Southern
States and caused property damage
estimated at 100000 to $6,000,000,
threatened new communities today.
The lower Alabama Valley, the
Pearl River and Tombigbee River
Valleys in Mississippi, and the lower
ChoctaWhatchee Valley in north
west Florida we're in the path of
the new flood menace
The Arkansas and White Rivers
continued to rise in Arkansas. In
northern Louisiana the Ouachita
River was at flood stage.
Lives Are Claimed
Loss of life, on the basis of in
complete reports, appeared confined
to Florida and Alabama. Six
Negroes we're drowned in southern
Alabama. Two we're missing from
a family that fled Caryville, Fla,
as the flood approached.
The tri-State area of southwest
Georgia, southern Alabama, and
northwest Florida, with hundreds of
thousands of acres of rich farmland
under water and refugees number
ing several thousand, was the most
affected.
Lower reaches of rivers III the
area received the muddy flood
waters that yesterday cut off from
the outside world a dozen small
communities built along the upper
reaches. These small towns today
received back their inhabitants.
BreWton and Flomaton, Ala, and
smaller communities in the Es-
Gambia River area, flooded yester-
day, were being rehabilitated to-
day.
Shoal River was receding in
northwest Florida.
In Georgia the northern reaches
of the Flint were at lower stage
and farming communities again
dry land. The Apalachicola will
receive the main body of the flood
within the next forty-eight hours.
Communities along its banks were
warned of the rise.
Georgia Losses Are High
Railroad and highway traffic in
the Georgia, Florida and Alabama
area was at a standstill for the
third day. At least fifteen bridges
in Alabama have been washed away.
Georgia farmers, especially cot
ton growers in the area consider
their combined losses to run above
100000. Watermelon and cante-
loupe paintings, nearly mature,
were ruined.
From Pensacola came reports that
all houses in Caryville, Fla, evac-
uated BY its 600 inhabitants Mon
day, had been washed away by the
flood waters of the Choctawhatchee
Jackson, Miss, watched the Pearl
River rise. LoWlands near the city
already have been deserted. The
crest of the rise was expected to-
day.
The Tombigbee at Columbus,
Miss, was choked with flood waters
and the towns along the lower val
ley in Alabama were warned to ex-
pect higher water.
