LIVING STILL BEING

Less Than 200 Persons Saved of

in Paterno

Tagiacozzo. via Rome. Jan. 19.-Not
less acute than the misery and suffer-
ing of the people of Avezzano is that
OF the inhabitants of the entire dis
trict to the south in Pescina, San Bene-
detto, Oiojit de Marsi and other towns.
The loss of life and damage to prop
erty in these places is equally as great,
but the needs of the sufferers have
received far less attention.
Soldiers have arrived at several of
these places to aid in the work of
rescue. but there is a lamentable
scarcity of food for both troops and
the people. The temporary shelters
provided are also inadequate to pro-
tect the people from the increasingly
cold weather.
Paterno, high up on the mountain
side, has suffered probably more than
any other town in the whole earth
quake region. Less than 200 persons
have been saved out of population OF
1000 and not a single house remains
standing. All are shameless ruins.
Along the main road from Paterno
