FLOOD BURSTS DYKES Reed. 1.15 p.m. ANTWERP, Mon. Violent storms caused the Scheldt to overflow at high tide, bursting three dykes and inundating the greater part of the villages of Moerseke and Grembergen, where the rail station was submerged to a depth of six feet. Hundreds were rushed in motor lorries to build up the dykes. There are grave fears that to-niglit’s flood tide will renew the floods. WESTFIELD HOLD-UP The police would be pleased to receive information concerning a Morris-Cowley saloon car No. 24-579, painted blue. This car was taken from the garage of Mr. W. Whittaker, Wheturangi Road, Green Lane, about eight o’clock last evening. From information given by those held up at Westfield, the pul ice. think there might be some connection between the two occurrences.
