Homeless and Starving Italians at Messina Kill Them

List Now Estimated at 100000

The government is still afraid on ao-
count of the risk the King and Queen
are daily encountering. Emmanuel has
repeatedly been forced TO dodge falling
walls. Both the King and Queen have
donned working clothes and are searching
the ruins at the head OF the rescuing par
ties. The King has had but a few hours
sleep since arriving on the scene and is
worn out by his narrowing experiences.
The King left Messina to-day and re-
turned to Reggie, which is the most dis
tressing spot in the entire zone of dis
aster. He personally superintended the
gathering of medical supplier for the few
suffering survivors along the west coast
of Calabria.
Minister OF Public Works Pertolini who
IS accompanying the King. teiegraphed to-
day that there are 100000 people in the
most abject condition and that the world
must respond to the appeals for aid more
generously than up to date. or thousands
OF these will be added to the already ap-
pslling list
