The Red Cross raised missing to 52 as families were evacuated from dike areas. Six refused to leave and were marooned near Olatskanie after a power boat and small craft broke close to their home. Damage across Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and British Columbia tops 140 million dollars. The Columbia River rose to 30 feet at Vancouver, with a forecast to fall to 28.5 feet by Thursday as authorities brace the 100 mile dike line from Portland to the Pacific coast. Troops and volunteers labored to bolster crumbling dikes and protect Reynolds Metals Troutdale plant as Vanport’s gap looms.
