Rome-From $4,000 to $4,000 still
remains the unofficial estimate of the
casualties resulting from the earth
quake which rocked Southern and
Central Italy early Wednesday morn
ing. The amount of damage done can
not yet be determined from the
meager descriptions of the persons
that reached Rome over the hampered
lines of communication. Such de-
tails as have come through left no
doubt, however, that nearly one hun
dred towns and villages have been ut
terly demolished or partly wrecked
and that great loss of life resulted.
Thousands of persons now have
lain for days beneath crumbled build
ings throughout the earthquake zone.
Some are dead while others still are
living.
1t is believed many of those caught
in the wreckage were not injured but
persisted from cold and hunger or
were incinerated in fires which broke
out amid the ruins. The number burn
ed probably was largest at Avezzano
and Magliano di Marsi. where fires
started and there was no water to
Quench them.
Avezzano apparently suffered most
from the disaster Ten thousand per-
sons in that district are said to have
persisted and the entire town has been
leveled.
Sora and Pescina each has 1000
dead, while the fatalities at Giosimarsi
reached $500 and at San Benedetto
5000. Numerous other towns report
death roll running from ten to over
two thousand.
In the stricken districts the people
are camping in the open. Troops are
guarding the demolished or partly de-
molished towns to prevent looting.
Castle distinctions everywhere have
been laid aside and members of the
nobility, senators, deputies and high
officials are working shoulder to
shoulder with private soldiers and la
borers in their efforts to rescue the
living or remove the bodies of the
dead.
