Dust Storms Blind
Central States
KANSAS CITY, (£>) —Blinding
dust storms, whipped by gale-like 1
winds, swirled over wide areas of 1
the plains States yesterday.
So thick was the dust pall that'
eight highway fatalities were
blamed on the choking clouds. Ap-!
proximately 50 persons were in- ^
jured in automobile accidents in
Kansas and Texas alone.
Rich top soil over thousands of
acres was blown away.
The winds also caused some
damage to buildings and fanned
prairie fires. Diminishing winds
today were expected to give the
plains a respite from the dust.
High winds spewt over Okla
homa, Texas. Kansas, Missouri,
New Mexico and Nebraska.
But it was Oklahoma, Texas
and Kansas that took the brunt of
the dust storms.
Four of the fatal accidents oc-!
curred in Kansas and three in
Texas. Nebraska also reported a
fatality.
Winds also contributed indirect
ly to the deaths of four children
S a turday night. Sixty-mile-an
hour gusts whipped flames,
through a wooden house near Gal- i
lup, N. M., burning to death three
