1 Texas City—Trag-
edy and Triumph
The heart* of all East
Texas and the rost of the
world go out to the brave
citiiens of Texas City as
they bury their dead, bind
up the wounds of the injured
and prepare to rebuild their
shattered city. Suddenly and
without warning on an April
morning this prosperous and
rapidly growing city on the
Eait Texas Gulf Coast was
rocked,by a series of explo-
sions of chemicals and oil.
The death list runs into sev-
eral hundred, the Injured
total thousands and the
property damage amounts to
staggering sums in million^
The fortitude and courtM
of the survivors, the incred-
ible speed with which they
organised relief and rehabil-
itation and the undaunted
will to carry on In the face
of this stunning blow, proves
that the pioneer spirit of
America Is not dead. Swift-
outside aid came from ail
over the nation and mes-
sages from distant lands
which showed that brother-
hood and practical kindness
still flourish in a strife-torn
world. , ,
It seems to take crisis and
tragedy to bring out the la-
tent courage in human be-
ings, No doubt there Is
more abiding local patriot-
Ism and love of home town
in Texas City now than be-
fore the catastrophe. Even
before the hot embers cooled,
men and women, rich and
poor, were at work clearing
wreekag e a n d repairing
homes. Officials of great
coronations gave generous
ly to the families of dead
employes and to the general
relief fund. Everywhere In
town the little people, the
unsung heroes, said bravely:
"We will rebuild."
A greater, fairer city will
rise from the ashes. A new

Over the counter of the

musician. "That's ridicu-
