An unwanted season-tying
record Of six straight 90-degree
days was expected today as the
Weather Bureau saw no chance
for relief before Friday or Sat-
urday.
About all that could be said
for today was that part
cloudiness would keep the mer-
curry under the 96 degrees Of
yesterday. That was a degree
hotter than the previous high
for August II in 1888.
The heat and humidity as
usual drew more heavily on
electrical power and water sup
plies, but the load was sur
prisingly low compared with
the hot stretch in late June.
Yesterday the District Water
Department, supplying the Dis
trict and parts Of nearby Mary
land and Virginia, dispensed
221.5 million gallons. On June
80, at the end Of the earlier
heat wave, the output was
1888 million gallons. Neither
Of these approached the all
time high consumption of 1923
on September 8, 1858.
The same story was reported
by Washington Suburban San
itary Commission, serving 600,-
900 customers in Montgomery
and Prince Georges counties.
Yesterdays gallon total was 81
million compared with 84.4 mil
lion on June 80.
Two reasons were given for
the reduced demand. One was
that the hot period has not

but was nowhere near peak
capacity.
Ice companies had a some

it was nothing like the June

out the general belief that this

Temperatures for June aver

A few sprinkles and nearby
showers were expected to keep

KANSAS CITY. Aug. 10
(AP).-Seven or more gasoline
storage tanks exploded today,
shooting flames into a group
of firemen and policemen and
injuring a dozen or more.
Flames shot up 200 feet and
engulfed a business building
across the street.
There was no immediate
estimate on the number Of
injured. Authorities earlier had
ordered evacuation Of the area
as the fire, which started in a
filling station, spread and be-
gan licking at the tanks.
In addition to the flremen
showered with flames by the
blast, an undetermined num-
Der earlier were overcome by
fumes and smoke. At least
three were taken to a hospital.
Eight or more were lying on
the ground overcome by smoke.
I. James Mitchum, a truck
driver, who was in the filling
station when the fire started,
was burned slightly.
The fire started at q Conoco
Oil Co. filling station while q
truck was being filled with
gasoline. The spot is on the
Kansas side Of an industrial
area where Missouri and Kan
sas Join.
The truck driver said he did
not know how the fire started
but that as it sprang up he
ran, leaving a valve to a gaso-
line storage tank open.

Four 25.000-gallon Conoco

for more than an hour, then
blew apart, one by one. Nearby
were five 12.000-gallon tanks
of the Pyramid Petroleum Co.
It was not known how many
of these exploded.
