The way to understand what they really meant is to have been in the flood zone, or in the adjacent areas where the refugees been rushed to safety. There in the countless indi- vidual cases which ma: be seen first-hand are stories of i oF y 8, fering, humor, ity and heroism that could measure. Heroism? Everybody was a hero down there.

Their batting avesage was only .667, for only two of the women reached birth to a son in_a rowboat tossing Throughout the emergency period the short wave radio operators were heroes. When all other means of communication failed they often “came through.” In one instance lives of 400 in a single spot. The victims were marooned on the sec- floor of a California (Ohio) But WSM in Nashville cancelled all programs, at a great loss in revenue, to carry the Louisville bul- letins. Yet WSM is WHAS' chief competitor. Heroism was not confined to the saving of human life. Rescue crews often risked their own lives to save dogs, cats and other animals who were floating on debris. One man in a rowboat lost his oars in rescu- ing a dog from a floating crate. A little while later, the dog, apparent- ly disgusted with an oarsman who couldn’t hang onto his oars, leaped out of the boat and swam ashore. Some animals did not fare so well. Those in the Cincinnati zoo were starving until the Detroit zoo- meat. All other meat had reserved for human beings. Humanity is for the most generous at heart. When the Cross made it known that $1 was needed at once, the was quick and sympathetic. Even those who were caught in the cat- astrophe wanted to help. One young mother, poorly clothed, said in a shelter house at Sharpsburg, Pa “l wish I had something to give those poor people. I know what it's like.

After hours of struggle they succeeded in removing the trapped persons. Rescue Animals, Too. Regular commercial broadcasting stations were heroes, too. WHAS and WAVE in Louisville did noble work in carrying bulletins and instruc- tions to victims and rescue crews. When these two stations were forced off the air by plant failures due to the flood, other stations carried their hulleting, of great importance to coast guard boats, police squads and national guard units-—when these bulletins did not interfere with com- mercially - sponsored broadeasts. g!"” She asked a man at her elbow, “I think it's fun, don't you?” He left her without answering out .

One building had been a laundry, with many trucks operating from it day by day Now it is a repair shop for out- board motors, with the tiny the building through the craft There is humor here, too, for even a flood is not without its ironies and its paradoxes. For instance, one of the chief desires of most refugees from the high water is a bath. On there is the case of the sharecropper who was being cared for in a Poplar Bluff, Mo camp, where the doctor in charge had ordered all 800 Tetugees to 1: a bath, “Say, " the \arecropper protested, ‘“‘this thing's , gettin’ seri- ous." Fat Lady Gets a Lift. In the jail at Parkersburg, W. Va., 63 prisoners didn't mind the flood very much. They were eating fancy “‘vittles'' they couldn't even call by name, supplied by the city's fore- most hotel. In Cincinnati, rescue crews heard that a woman had been marooned, and set out to get her. They had to chop away part of her house to take her out; she weighed 400 pounds. In Louisville a rescue party took a woman from a flooded house and rowed her three blocks to safety. Then she wanted to be rowed back. She had left two dol lars in the home, she said. The boatmen were gentle, but firm. “Not even for two bucks,” they said. Sights to be seen from the rescue boats were not all dismal. There was the truck mired in a ditch be- side a flooded highway near Cairo. It was loaded with wax feminine figures clothed in filmy lingerie.
