SummaryResumen
A continuation of the Santo Domingo hurricane dispatch describes the capital in ruins, with the Ozama River out of its banks and whole sections inundated, people left with almost no clothing, and relief planes arriving from Port au Prince, Havana, the United States and Porto Rico with food, medicines, shelters and doctors, while the river bar blocked relief ships. The president ordered all food sold at cost under pain of court-martial, the old cathedral survived winds of 180 miles an hour, Santiago, La Vega and Puerto Plata were reported undamaged, and the International Red Cross in Paris appealed worldwide for funds for the sufferers.
Una continuación del despacho sobre el huracán de Santo Domingo describe la capital en ruinas, con el río Ozama desbordado y secciones enteras inundadas, la gente con casi ninguna ropa, y aviones de socorro que llegaban desde Puerto Príncipe, La Habana, los Estados Unidos y Puerto Rico con alimentos, medicinas, refugios y médicos, mientras la barra del río bloqueaba a los barcos de socorro. El presidente ordenó que todos los alimentos se vendieran al costo bajo pena de consejo de guerra, la antigua catedral sobrevivió a vientos de 180 millas por hora, Santiago, La Vega y Puerto Plata fueron reportadas sin daños, y la Cruz Roja Internacional en París hizo un llamamiento mundial de fondos para los damnificados.
