Efforts we're made to drill holes

Even crews working with gas

honorary chief OF the fire depart
ment said the injured list from
smoke probably would run over 300

Movement of merchandise from
nearby piers was hampered by bill
lows of smoke and by traffic con-
ditions. Thousands of pounds of
fruit and vegetables were removed
by hand and truck and trundled
through the fire hoses to streets
where trucks could be loaded.
The scource of the fire still was
