Explosions In Brazil
SALVADOR, Brazil, (£1 — An
awesome fireworks explosion in

rections.
There were two fireworks dis
asters less than 30 miles apart,
and the toll ran to about 100
dead and 400 injured.
By far the worst was at Santa
Amaro, 35 miles northwest of
here, where most of the casual
ties were. The other was at
Fiera de Santana, 60 miles north
west of Salvador.
Many of the victims were
mothers and children who died
instantly in the municipal mar
ket at Santa Amaro, where they
were celebrating holy days with
fireworks.
An electric power line broke
and fell on a fireworks booth,
setting off a chain of fireworks
stand explosions. Some of the
victims were believed electrocuted
by the loose wire.
Moments after the first explo
sion, the fairground stands were
in flames. Firecrackers and rock
ets shot in all directions. Some
victims were mangled in the ex
plosions. Others were engulfed
in the flames and burned to death.
Seven persons were reported
killed and 40 injured when a fire
works factory at Fiera de San
tant exploded,
tana exploded.

The government of Bahia state,
where the explosions occurred,
