Fort Wayne braces as flood threat forces evacuations
Public Safety Coordinator Anthony Meyers urged 24 hour action as police and firefighters evacuated residents along eight blocks. About 4,100 people left homes while seven new Red Cross shelters opened bringing total to nine. Dikes, gas and electric lines were shut to prevent fires and a crane stood by to dump dirt if dikes breached. Officials warned the Maumee river near the Lakeside area would crest around 26.5 feet, threatening isolation of parts of the city.

Reagan Caribbean aid draws quick Senate hearing
A Senate subcommittee opened hearings on Reagan’s 350 million Caribbean Basin aid plan including 124 million for El Salvador. Senator Robert Kasten urged disclosure of more evidence on Cuban and Nicaraguan influence cited as backing guerrillas, while officials defended the case as overwhelming and urged public support for the policy. The package also envisions 12 years of duty free Caribbean exports and tax incentives to spur U.S. investment.
