HEAVY SNOW FALLS
TO ASSURE EUROPE
WHITE CHRISTMAS
Blast of Winter Extends From
Scandinavia to Mediter-
ranean Shores

London, Dec. 2l.-R-Freezing
weather, with a blanket of snow, made
a Christmas landscape of the whole OF
Europe Monday and set the stage for
Santa Claus, although in some places
heavy damage made the picture a
costly one.
The blast of winter extended from
Scandinavia to the shores of the Med
iterranean.
A violent storm dashed the Baltic
sea, accompanied by heavy snow
wrecking many houses along the
shores and flooding others.
Scandinavia, especially Sweden
suffered the heaviest damage. For
two days heavy snow, driven by high
wind, smothered the country, leveling
forest trees over wide area and
causing heavy losses. Telephone and
telegraph wires were down and trains
snowbound, while the towns and vii
lagos were almost buried.
A dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Stockholm said 5000 unemployed per-
sons were given work clearing the city
streets. Many towns were without
lights for two nights and motion pic
ture houses were closed. Hundreds OF
automobiles were stalled in the snow
and several persons were injured In
traffic accidents.
Parts Of Germany, including Berlin,
were covered with snow and freezing
weather prevailed throughout most OF
the country. Many sections of France
were white -blanketed and tempera-
lures ranged from degrees below
freezing in Paris to IA below in coun-
try districts.
The Balkans were visited with hard
freezing weather. Parts Of Italy saw
the coldest weather ilf years.
Northern Spain was frost-bound. An
English Spanish tennis match was
played at Barcelona Sunday In severe
cold. The players were forced to wear
rope sandals to avoid falling on the
frozen court.
Tunis was covered with thick lay
er of snow for the first time within
the memory of the inhabitants. The
snow followed recent gale and floods
which claimed dozens Of lives.
