UTAH IS SHAKEN
BY EARTHQUAKE
TWO DISTINCT SHOCKS ARE FELT
IN VARIOUS PARTS OF STATE;
QUAKE FELT.IN CALIFORNIA
Eisinore Receives Brunt Of ouakes In
Early Morning; People Rush
into Streets In Night
Attire

Richfield, Utah-Earthquake shocks,
the most severe ever felt In this region,s
awoke the citizens Of several towns
near here early Thursday morning. The
disturbance conferred at Elsinore, seven
miles south of here, where the school
building was so badly damaged that
1t could not be used. A series of minor
shocks were recorded locally at Elsin-
ore and Monroe, but the shakeup was
principally confined to two distinct
quakes, occurring within few minutes
of each other and each lasting over
period of several seconds.
The first shock occurred at 7:15 q.
m. and lasted for more than two Sec
onds. Five minutes later the heaviest
OF the two Quakes shook the valley for
fully six seconds, tumbling sleepers
from their beds and damaging property
to an extent not yet estimated. Builds
ings rocked on their foundations and
the startled residents, CARRIED In their
night clothes, rushed into the streets,
1t was with difficulty that they main
tanned their feet, as the disturbance
caused by the favlting earth rocked
them backward and forward. Chiney's
crashed to the ground. Buildings Of
fragile construction collapsed. In the
Hotel Johnston lobby the rocking
chairs rolled over backward from the
motion and In the dining room those
at early breakfast had their meals
precipitated into their laps.
Telephone reports from nearby
towns indicate that quakes conferred
near Elsinore seven miles south OF
here. There considerable damage
was done to the schoolhouse and to
other buildings. So far reports indi-
cate that no one has been injured In
the hundreds Of small crashes occa-
stoned by the major disturbance. But
1t Is known that as far south as Marys-
vale the effect of the shock was felt
in damaged property, destroyed chin
neys and frightened populace.
The quakes took q Dorth-south line
for q known distance of more than fiji
ty miles, and from the severity of the
disturbances at these extreme points, II
is believed that q much greater area
was affected by the shocks. At the
center Of disturbance, the Elsinor,
J schoolhouse had one wall partially
crushed in, while the remaining struc
ture was so badly damaged that the
building was made unsafe for use, 1t 1,
SAID. The line Of fault seemed to LID
} directly along one foundation Of thii
building, allowing that side to settle
until space Of more than one foo
! remained between topwall and roof. A
Elsinore, 1t is said, six distinct shocks
were felt; but aside from the heavlel
movements felt throughout this dis
trict, no damage was done, 1t Is said
The disturbances subsidized abou
: $40 a. m. and no further shocks hat
been felt at noon. But 1t was SOM
time later before the frightened pop
ulace would trust themselves insid
the city's buildings. Immediate com

Both senate and house provide the
same method of apportioning funds
as in the original federal aid act,
which based the allotment on the
three factors of relative area Of pop
ulation and mileage of rural delivery
and star routes. The new legislation
proposes that no state shall receive
less than one-half of one per cent of
the total sum apportioned.
Proposed System.
Both bills now provide for the ex-
penditure Of all federal aid funds in
each state on a system to be selected
by the state highway department and
approved by the secretary of agricul-
ture. This system is to comprise not
to exceed per cent of the total road
mileage of the state of which per
cent not to exceed three-seventh
shall be on primary or interstate
routes and the remainder on second
airy or inter-county roads. The SEN
ate bill provides that not more than
so per cent of the federal funds shall
be expended on the primary routes,
while the house bill provides that not
less than so per cent shall be ex-
pended on these same routes. This
difference remains to be adjusted by
