in two major industrial districts.
Leakage from a 20.000 barrel tank
of gasoline in ihe Amourdalc di ;
trict of Kansas City. Kas.. and twc
leaks in the Great Lakes pipe line
in the Fairfax district released
fumes and fuel that a single spark
could ignite into an inferno.
Should this occur, the fire that
burned seven blocks in Kansa., City
since Friday noon might* seem like
a small bonfire, officials feared.
The 120-hour old fire appeared to
be down to its last embers today
and no longer a threat to the city
The flood, already the costliest it:
the nation’s history, has moved into
lowlands in St. Louis and brought
closing of numerous grain elevators,
factories, warehouses and other in-j
dustrial installations near the Mis
sissippi river.
Major Gen. Lewis A. Pick, chief
of the Army Engineers, estimated
several days ago that the disaster
already had caused damage to phy
sical property totaling more than
$70,000,000.
