canal and Macarthur boulevard.
Several warehouses along the
Alexandria waterfront were flooded,
but police there said damage was
slight. Warnings by the Coast
Guard enabled many boat owners
to move out before the crest was
reached. The Memorial highway
remained closed south of Alexandria
to Hunting Creek last night, but was
expected to- be reopened some time
today.
The Bladensburg Rescue Squad,
which had evacuated 80 families in
the area, reported the eastern branch
of Anacostia River was falling
rapidly at that point Traffic over
Bladensburg road leading into Wash
ington will be resumed late today,
police said. Red Cross and civilian
defense workers were caring for the
evacuated families in the Bladens-
burg Primary School.
More than 100 yachts remained

was built between Washington
Monument and Lincoln Memorial,
with gap at Seventeenth street. 1t
was here that District workers,
aided by large number of troops,
reinforced the dixie now overgrown
with grass and piled sandbags at
the Seventeenth street opening.
Sandbags also were thrown up
around the Districts main sewage
pumping station at the foot of New
Jersey avenue Sc, Mr. Gordon said
The flood control plan also included
the highly important diversion of
surface and sanitary sewage directly
to the river. In past floods, water
has backed up to sewage catch bas-
ins and interceptor pumps have ac-
tually pumped flood waters into
streets, he said.
Yesterday and Friday night, how
ever, these pumps were halted and
wherever possible the combined
sanitary and surface flow was di-
verted directly to the river, Mr. Cor
don explained.
District Health Officer George C.
Rutland secuted rumors of any
health menace in this area, but dis
closed that dairymen in nearby
Maryland and Virginia had been
warned to be "doubly careful" in
the pasteurization of milk until the
flood danger had completely cleared.
Two Men Drowned.
Two fatalities were recorded here
as auresult Of the food. Albert Mil
ler, 63, Of the 900 block OF E street.
S.W. was drowned shortly before
midnight Friday after falling from
pier which was under water, at
the Municipal Fish Market on
Maine avenue. John Buell., 81, chief
of the Bethesda Volunteer Fire De-
partment, was drowned the night
before when a flash flood of the
Glen Echo branch swept him away
as he was hooking up tow car to
a stalled automobile.
Arlington County Engineer C. L.
Kinnier reported last night that
damage in that area came mostly
from flooded Easements. Streets
and highways received little dam
age, he said. Some difficulties were
experienced, however, in sewers
overfowing. he said, and a survey
was to be made this week on plans
for additional sewers.
The Arlington Chapter of the
American Red Cross and a Boy
Scout emergency crew assisted in
the feeding of families moved from
the river area Friday night. The
scouts rescued an unidentified COL
ored man from roof top during
the height of the food Carolyn

River flood waters stood at 21.3 feet

crest of the flood there had been
reached.
j. B. Gordon, director of sanitary
engineering for the District who
supervised the work of approx
mately 500 District employees in
erecting dikes and diverting sewage
that might have caused a serious
health menace, attributed a flood
control plan worked out following
the 1886 disaster with having saved
the city serious damage.
Thousands of persons visited
inundated areas along the Washing
ton waterfront last night to view
the food, giving police trouble in
handling traffic. The jam was par
ticularly heavy along Constitution
avenue leading to Memorial Bridge,
some motorists bound for Virginia
reporting it required more than an
hour to cross the river.
At points along Maine avenut and
K street, soldiers stood guard with
rifles, keeping all persons, except
those who could show good cause,
away from flooded sections. Eight
police from six precincts in other
sections Of the city were detailed
last night to assist Fourth Precinct
men in patroling the flooded area.
Highway bridge, ordered closed to
traffic early yesterday when its ap-
proaches were flooded, remained
closed last night, and was not ex-
pected to be reopened before noon
today. Traffic continued to be
routed over Memorial and Key
Bridges.
Rail Traffic Resumed.
Railroad and other highway
transportation from Washington
south through Virginia was in oper-
alton again last night, although Me-
mortal Highway remained closed
between Highway Bridge and
Alexandria.
F. w. Reichelderfer, chief of the
Weather Bureau, said the primary
cause of the flood was the excess
sive rainfall Thursday night, par
ticularly in the Shenandoah VAL
ley and upstream portions of the
Potomac. From the beginning of
rainfall Tuesday until yesterday
noon when skies began to clear here,
sgt inches of rain fell, Mr.. Reichel-
derfer said
One of the hardest hit places here
was the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
freight line along the canal near
FletCher's BoathouSe, where the old
c. & O. Canal overfowed its bank.
tearing 100 feet of roadbed out and
toppling two freight cars into the
Potomac Service was not expected
to be resumed for a week along the

business houses.
Maintenance men, Mr.. Gordon
pointed out last night, thought out
"to the minutest detail what was to
be done" in combating flood waters.

Lastly, the bureau asked that

Weather Bureau Seeks Data
On Record Rainfall in East
Private Observers in Eight Stotes Asked
To Report for Flood Control Plan

The Weather Bureau last night
requested data of private weather
observers of eight Eastern States on
last weeks record rainfall for future
food control planning.
This information is sought from
private citizens in North Carolina,
Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland,
Delaware, Pennsylvania and New
Jersey, the section hit hardest by the
rain that stretched from Tuesday
through Friday.
The bureau requested this infor-
nation for the purpose of supple
menting data collected at the limited
number of official rain gauge sta
tions maintained in this area.
Most of the information is ex-
pected to come from residents who
follow the practice of setting out
containers to measure the rainfall.
Any one with this type of informa-
tion is requested to send their find
ings to the Weather Bureau.

Sr son of the famous society. leader of the
Gay Nineties the original Mrs. ogden Goelet,

His first wife (and Ogden's mother) was
Elsie Wheen, a society beauty who subse-

Goelet's second wife was an Italian beauty

Of an italian professor and once wife Of a

Fernando did not meet with the approval

its cue from her, did not receive Fernando
either.
With millions at her command a palace

names in American society as background,
Fernando still sat alone by the telephone,
waiting for someone to give her kind word.
No one ever did.
So she sailed away and got Paris divorce.
