2.600 Lives

In Danger

"SITUATION SERIOUS"

London, May 27.

A forest fire raging through acres of dry- as-dust pinewoods threatened to cut off a town of 2,600 persons tonight.

Only one road into the town of Wareham, Dorsetshire, was left open as firemen battled to control the brush fire raging through Wareham Forest. Water was pumped up from nearby Poole Harbour to aid in the firefighting, but latest re- | ports said the flames were roaring on unchecked. Flames roared 80 feet into the air and pine- needles crackled as the fire crept round the northern 1st like a cloak- and eastern outskirts of the town, in a rapidly

spreading, mile long wall of fire.
