TO DROUGHT AREA
Railways Report to Secre-
tary Hyde Shows | ,254 Des-
tinationS in Virginia.

By the Associated Press.
Permits for the shipment of 1888
carloads of feed into the drought
stricken areas have been reported to
Secretary Hyde by the American Rail-
way Association
OF the total, 1854 carloads were for
destinations in Virginia, 7S4 for West
Virginia, 357 for Maryland. 72 for Penn
sylvania, Gil for Ohio, 3O5 for Ken
lucky, So for Tennessee, 285 for Indiana,
z Tor Illinois, 4 for Arkansas and / for
Mississippi
The shipment was made up of hay and

per cent was mill feed per cent corn,
and per cent oats.
The permits were issued for trans
portation under the reduced Railroad
rates upon certiflcation by agents of
the Department Of Agriculture that the
iced was needed because of conditions
created by the drought.
Secretary Hyde today designated a
group OF departrr entail officials to handle
specific phases of drought relief closely
related to their regular activities.
c. w. Warburton, director of extern
sion work, and secretary of the Federal
Drought Relief Committee, was given
general responsibility for the correlation

CITY
IN TWISTED RUINS
Santo Domingo Modern and
Medieval, With Many
Natural Charms.

The charm of the city that was
twisted by storm was portrayed for the
Pan-American Union last Winter by
Summer Welles, once American commits
sioner to the Dominican Republic.
He. drew contrast between "the
appearance of antiquity and of medieval
charm" and the modern improvements
the people had worked so hard for, both
of which suffered under the mad rush
of wind yesterday. The tourist, he
wrote, would find brightly lighted
streets and asphalt pavements, a mod
ern water supply brought from noun
tains 20 miles away, and roads stretch
Ing through the countryside.
The city of Santo Domingo Is hid
den from view until one Is almost upon
it, he continued.
Land Juts Into Sea.
1.-THE steamer makes a sudden turn
around point of land that jlltS out
sharply into the Caribbean, and then
the city is spread before enc, rising
from the coral cliffs and stretching out
over low rolling hills that lie beyond.
Far away to the north one can see
the high mountains of the central por-
ton of the island. and to the south, In
tiers of luminous blue, the mountains
forming the natural barrier between
Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
LAS one enters the narrow mouth OF
the harbor, where the Ozama River
empties into the sea, one skirts on the
left the high cliff upon which stands
the old fortress, which dates from early
Colonial days and is still used as gar
rison for the national military forces.
although a portion of the old buildings
has been converted into a municipal
prison. Halfway up the hillside, ada
cent to the old city wall, there stands
the palace of the Columbus family, its
medieval walls hardly impaired by time,
although the roof has been permitted
TO decay.
"The docks and the customs houses
stand Just below extending along the
bank of the river. The traveller enters
the city through one of the old city
gates, still standing intact, and from
there passes directly into the turmoil of
the commercial quarter, which has
claimed for Its uses the streets and sec
tons composing the original Santa
Domingo OF the sixteenth century.
Through this maze of narrow, wind
ing streets. the tourist is suddenly
brought into an open, rectangular square
in the center of which is a well kept
park fringed with large shade trees and
gay with the blossoms of tropical shrubs
In the center rises the monument 70

Santo Domingo Outstanding
18th Century Spanish Place,
Where Columbus RepoSed.

BY the associated Press.
The city of Santo Domingo. reported
half-ruined and in need of medical
supplies and water for those suffering
from the wrath of the hurricane, held
an estimated population of $4,000 three
years ago.
Located on the Ozama River a trop-
ical stream, it has been considered an
outstanding specimen of the sixteenth
century Spanish city in the new world.
Guarding the entrance to the harbor
Is an old rock fort, with its historic
turreted Columbus tower. In the town
Is the old Gothic Cathedral, where
Columbus once was buried, and where
rest the bones of many notable families
in early American history.
Extremely Rugged Country.
The country over which the storm
wreaked havoc is extremely rugged
and woody. 1t covers 1882 square
miles and has three major mountain
ranges running east and west Along
the southern boundary of the Great
Plain of Vega Re- c-hich is 140 miles
long and Is ) 30 miles wide, stands
Iona Tina. the highest mountain in
the West -Sdies, reaching upward 10000
feet.
Irregular mountain. spurs bTeak the
remainder of the country, while water
falls dot the myriad streams In the.
valleys.
While the climate is tropical, it is
considered healthful because OF ocean
winds and the elevation.
The usual dry season extends fconI
December to June, while precipitation
in the wet months causes the growth
of luxuriant forests in which such trees
as mahogany, satinwood and cedar pre-
dominate.
Although mining once was the
islands major source of revenue, that
industry of late years has been at
virtual standstill, but the extent of some
mineral resources has not been deter
mined.
Cattle and goats are raised in con-
siderable numbers, feeding on the lux
uriant grass, but sugar cane, thriving
In the tropical soil, constitutes the
major agricultural product. Some
coffee, bananas. cocoanutS, cotton and
cecao are produced Most of the re-
pubifc's revenue is derived from customs
duties.

small buildings had been blown away.
Williamson left San Juan, Porto Rico,

forecaster said it was possible the
storm might pass midway between
Cuba and Key West, in which event
those places would escape the real fury
of the blow.
The current hurricane is behaving,
so far, not unlike that which devastated
Miami in 1925. The paths of the two
storms so far parallel each other closely,
the 1925 course being slightly to TIE
north. High pressure areas caused
the 1925 hurricane to head direct for
Florida. its center passing exactly
through Miami.
Mitchell knows his hurricanes. He
is probably better informed on the
whims of West Indian cyclones than
any other meteorologist, for he has
made the study Of them his hobby.
First to Disclose Origin.
It was as a result of exhaustive re-
search in 1924 that Mitchell announced
definitely that the West Indian storms
invariably originate west Of the Carih-
bean Sea. contrary to then popular
belief. He issued lengthy treatise on
the subject, and plotted all hurricanes
dating from 1886 to prove the easterly
origin Of such disturbances. 3
Mitchell, genial scientist Of middle
age, whose modesty is proverbial, has
an unpretentious ONCE adjoining the
big forecast room on the first floor of
the Weather Bureaus antiquated brick
headquarters. The office is occupied
also by r. Hanson Weightman, asso-
ciate forecaster..
May Remain There Tonight.
Mitchell spent most of the day at a
shoulder high desk in the forecast room
perusing reports from the storm area
and plotting observations with his little
red pencil. Sometimes he would erase
part of a line and redraw 1t. Free
quently his eyes shifted to the Florida
coast and back again to the blunt end

its beauty the cathedral Of Santo Do
mingo, of which the foundation stones
were laid in the first years Of the six
tenth century, and Of which the ex-
terror, today, remains unimpaired by

cathedral is a striking example OF a

Tomb OF Columbus.
"Just within the portal stands the
tomb of Columbus. where the ashes of
the discoverer of the American con-
tinent lie encased in small urn.
THE cathedral and the palace Of
the Columbus family are by no means
the only beautiful relics Of antiquity
of almost equal age, some Of them still
in use, and some in ruins wreathed
with curtain of tropical creepers and
trees; there are the old fortreSseS.

HAVANA, September 4 CR).-Cuban
observatory officials announced shortly
after noon today that the course of the
West Indies hurricane had turned
north toward the open sea after hitting
Santo Domingo and would miss Cuba
entirely.
Announcement that danger to the
Island of Cuba had been eliminated by
the new course of the hurricane was
made both by Rev. Gutierrez LAMA of
Belen Observatory and Dr.. Jose Millas
of the National Observatory.
Belen Observatory reported early this
afternoon that the hurricane then was
north of Baracoa, Oriente Province
Cuba. The statement said the speed
of the storm had diminished but
slightly.
The observatory was making obserya-
tons in relation to Florida's prospect of
feeling the storm.
