Tahiti
PAPEETE, August 3 MYSTERIOUS washes or tidal . waves have occurred in recent imes along the east coast of Tahiti.
The latest visitation was about July 12. when the water rose over the land in the east coast districts of Papara, Paea and Punaauia. Resi dents of Papara report that the swirl of the waters, which entered their houses and compelled them to move
their furniture, carried away about ten feet of the beach. The waves seem to affect only these eastern shores. Some of the people believe that atom bomb experiments in the northeast Pacific have caused these extraordinary water movements.
