British Flying
Boat Forced to
Lalldin Atlantic
l.400 NILES FROM LAND: 81
PASSENGERS. INCLUDING
AMERICANS. ABOARD AIR
CRAFT: ALL SAFE
tBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-Sixty-
two passengers and seven crew
men are aboard a British flying
boat that had to come down 1,400
miles from land in the Atlantic
today.
Shortage of fuel was the cause
of the forced landing. 1t was
said that ever since the boat had
left England it had been bucking
head winds. They became SO bad,
the pilot decided to turn back, but
he had not gone far when he
learned that his fuel tanks were
almost empty. He sighted mark
er ship and decided to take to the
water. He came down without
doing any damage to the flying
boat and then TAXED toward the
marker ship.
The first report said that the
passengers had been transferred
to the ship, but later report
stated that the seas were too
rough to make the transfers. An
other message said that the flying
boat was holding up well in the
rough sea.
Six Americans are among the
passengers.

| MIAMI, Oct. 14.-Precautions
are being taken in Dade and
Broward counties against the
possible spreading of typhoid as
a result of the flooding OF streets
and maiy yards.
Septic tanks, in many in
stances, have been flooded and
their contents have been mixed
with flood waters.
The Red Cross announced to-
day that, after a survey of flood,
led districts, it had been decid-
ed to spend two and a quarter
million dollars, instead of the
originally planned one million,
for relief work in the two coun-
ties.
Many miles of streets have
been ruined, and the cost Of re-
pairing them will run into many
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Damage generally, including
crops, will run from IS to 40
million dollars in the entire dis
tricts that are under flood wa
tiers, it was estimated.
Four hundred miles of road
ways have been damaged, and
engineers estimated today that
to remair them will cost $4,000
a mile. s
