Narration (English)
01. Floods in Bavaria
Several days of record-breaking rainfalls in Upper Bavaria resulted in floods of exceptional violence.
This is the Rosenheim area where the wild waters of the Mangfall river made the dikes burst and swamped highways, fields, meadows and rail-road tracks.
Penetrating water lead to the explosion of a carbide dump, thereby causing injuries and considerable damage.
The population of the stricken areas was continuously warned by radio through Military Government and summoned to join emergency working gangs. Occupation troops participated in this work. Many localities had to be temporarily evacuated. For more than 24 hours, Garmisch-Partenkirchen was completely cut off.
A land slide cut the last communication route via Mittenwald and the Walchensee highway.
The Isar, too, carried flooded waters ... right into the heart of Munich.
The rainfall continued non-stop for 70 hours.
The floods did not fall till the fourth day.

The world famous English tourist Office of Cook & Sons has reopened its Offices in Germany and the Cologne and Hamburg branches are again serving the German population and international travellers.

There are offices for advance booking for consultation as to trips, for forwarding depoditing and insuring baggage and so on.
And this means: One further step toward the gradual restoration of orderly travelling conditions.
b. Baseball
At present there is a lot of fun at Berlin-Tempelhof, where Berlin school-children learn baseball, the American national game.
Some 600 teenagers - boys and girls - are instructed in this new game by American coaches. Baseball is somewhat like German "Schlagball" and is played upon on a diamond shaped field.
The wire-visor protects the face from being hit. This is softball - an easier variation of the same game.
Chief requirements are: exact aiming, quick running, good catching - and who does not yet know it, will learn it now in the course of this training of a growing baseball community.
c. Hippo, Munich

05. Danger - Colorado-beetle!
The Colorado-beetle - a plague at all times - has now become a deadly enemy of German agriculture and food supply.
Therefore its, extermination is more important than ever before.
This is how it eats the plants bare.
And this is how it looks. Light-yellow wing covers with 10 black stripes - colourful and pretty like a poisonous mushroom.
These are larvae and those are aggs, which are generally deposited in piles of mostly 20 to 30 on the underside of potato plant leaves.
A female is able to produce some 30 million eggs. It is obligatory to report every Colorado-beetle found. In addition, all threatened fields have to be examined once a week by search parties. Everybody can be drafted for this duty, including older school children.
The site where beetles were found is marked. In many cases, it is not sufficient to remove the beetle - then the plants have to be sprayed with arsenolite, a poison most harmful to man and animal. The solution is sprayed with portable sprayers and mobile spraying devices.
In case of exceptionally numerous appearance of Colorado-beetles, the Central Office for Plant Protection mobilizes ambulant teams on trucks.
06. Camera-report from Westerland
The well-known health resort of Westerland on the North Sea Island of Sylt is gradually regaining its former peacetime appearance. First, of all the sea wall, neglected during wartime and damaged by heavy spring tides, is repaired The ruins are blown up and then the ground-work for a new seawall is laid.
The newly raised ground is supported by concrete- and wooden masts 10 meters long.
Months of intensive work were required to get the seawall breakerproof.
This season, chiefly sick and reconvalescent will enjoy summer, sea and recreation at Westerland.
In the children's home of Dr. Ross workers' children enjoy 6 weeks of beach-life. They are admitted to the home after medical examination by the school doctor through the agency of the Worker's Welfare. They get additional food from the Swedish Relief. When their stay is finished, they will return to the city, tanned and strengthened.
During wartime, the Westerland sanatorium was a military hospital for officers - now it is again at the disposal of everybody.
An infants- and a women's station have been recently created. Rest cures, games and sports on the beach form part of the program. The first visitors enjoy this long missed opportunity of beach-life alone or in pairs as is the old-time custom of Westerland.
