...wide. Debris piled up against bridges and then the bridges plunged downstream. A 6-ft. wall of water smashed into the crowded industrial suburbs and carried all before it: hundreds of rubble-brick houses, telephone poles, autos. horses and wagons, people.

Any of these would help to generate a new wave of consumer buying and melt unemployment...
