Destructive Iowa Tornado Wrecks Grinnell and Across State
A violent cyclone torn through Iowa last weekend killing dozens and flattening towns. Grinnell suffers heavy property loss with uninsured total exceeding 400,000, while Leavenworth and St Louis report damage and high winds. Governor Sperman appeals nationwide for aid, noting 60 dead and 500+ wounded, 1,044 homes lost, and property damage surpassing 2,000,000 dollars with potential to reach 3,000,000. The Des Moines relief effort gathers volunteers as Iowa calls for a million dollars to shelter and feed the afflicted. The storm left thousands homeless, with Grinnell’s 400 students left without shelter and many towns facing dire need. The tornado’s electric fury, its height and reach, and the resulting devastation are described in stark, non-graphic terms.
