From Hatteras to Boston high seas pounded the shore line and the wind which reached “whole gale” force blew down trees, telephone and telegraph poles and disrupted electric light and power systems for several miles inland. ‘Wind at 80 Miles Winds ranging from $0 miles an heur down to 25 miles in protected sections of the metropolitan dis- | trict swept away many small boats | and forced others to take shelter in | protected bays and harbors. The chief damage in this section was. along. the new Jersey coast where seaside resorts were hard hit and| two unidentified fishermen were re-i ported missing. | Four deaths directly attributed to | the storm were reported. Frank In- | gersoll of Somer's Point, N. J., was drowned oft Atlantic City when his tender, in which he was leaving his sinking cabin cruiser, overturned. J. Harry Hughes, of Cape May, N. J., dropped dead of shock when the | arernoon, but plans to discuss In. |largely materfalistic.” signs were blown down and water in the telephone cable conduits put 1,000 phones out of order for & time in downtown Manhattan.

Several coastwise steamers delay- ed their sailings from Boston. Pre- ferring not to risk the inshore wind, | and several coastwise ships boundi in reported they had sought shelter | in other harbors along the New| England coast.

The weather bureau predicted that the wind would change to the northwest late today, bringing abatement of the storm. High Tides Prevail High tides, pushed up by the northeast gale assaulted the New Jersey coast and even invaded New York harbor, causing readjustment of the landing bridges at the ferry slips, The tide was three feet above normal in the harbor. The worst damage to the New Jersey coast resort cities was at Manasquan and Point Pleasant. The residents offthe former place were forced to flee inland, 110 families being evacuated to higher ground, while at the latter town 450 feel of the boardwalk was washed away and the high seas tore at the foun- dations of bulldings along the beach threatening to undermine them. Many trees were blown down in the ‘Asbury Park district, falling acroas streets to block traffic in sev. eral places. Hurricane flags were flying at 8andy Hook for the first time in fifteen years. The hard working coast guards- men, in addition to warning resi- dents along the beach to flee to higher ground’ were kept busy res- cuing'too adventurous fishermen and pleasure seekers from disabled craft, Fifty boats were estimated to have been wrecked along t. > coast and tons of driftwood and wreckage was piled high on the heaches.

In answer to another question from the same heckler, Curtis shout- “I told you about that a few inutes ago, but you're too damned dumb to understand!"” Again at Sioux City, where Curtis detrained for a short speech, one of the audience interrupted with ques- tions in the midst of his eulogy of Herbert Hoover, asking who paid the bill for Hoover's European re- lief work. Heads For Montana “The American people paid it and paid it gladly, and Herbert Hoover paid some of it out of his own pocket,” Curtis replied. “You didn't pay anything, or you wouldn't have asked that question.” Curtis' private car will lay over today at Valentine, Neb., while the senator motors to Rosebud and to- morrow will carry him into Montana for a renewal of his campaign for farmers’ votes.

Juliano Romano and Salvatore La Rocco were sought as the actual kidnapers. The boy identified their photographs as those of his cap- tors.
