FURTHER DETAILS OF
 EARTHQUAKE IN CHILE

Santiago, Nov. 14.-(By The A. PJ- Each hour brings further details of the great disaster in Chile caused by the earthquake and tidal waves, and each new report received from the provinces which suffered the full force of the cor vulsion adds to the list of dead and the enormous damage already recorded.
 Advices this afternoon from. Vallenar, say that the total dead recovered thus far at that place number 1,500, while the adjoining town of Freirina is in complete ruins, the casualties not being known.
 As official compilation by the ministry of the interior, based on reports received by. that department earlier in the day, gave the number of dead in six towns as SS6 and the injured 2,410. This compi!a- ton did not include hundreds of small CT places within the radius of the earthquake, which are virtually shut off from communication because of the breakdown of telegraph lines.
 Twelve hundred miles of the coastline felt in varying degrees the effects of the great tidal waves which followed the earth shocks, and for large pro- portion of this distance seaports, towns and villages were inundated Now, near ly four days after the disaster, thous- ands of families are wandering about the country side. Their distress is great for they have little clothing and few supplies.
 Again today severe earth tremors shook the province of Coquimbo and oth- CT places, and strange illuminations were observed last night over the sea off La Serena. and at Copiapo.
 | The reports to the minister give the following casualties

FOR RELIEF OF
 RAILWAYS AID FaRHERs

Washington. Nov. IA nevd for reconstruction of the railroad ra.e struc- ture of the country-in some cases with upwards readjustments-Vill le brought to the attention of congress by Secre- tary Hoover. it is understood. in his forthcoming annual report. Some relief both to the railways and 10 the farm CTS. in the secretary's view, may thus be obtained.
 Losses through short transportation. Mir. Hoover finds, are a tax upon the community stifiing production, introduc- ing speculation and distorting price lev els. Despite the lack of equipment. he maintains. American railroad manage ment is the most efficient in the world.
 Regulation in some form is necessary. he contends, but constructive develop ment of this regulation-to preserve the initiative of railway executives and at the same time to secure public protection and assure adequate service-are vital and not necessarily incompatible. Naturalization would be a social and economic disaster" drafts of the report say. Free operation would reconstruct the vicious practices of 39 years ago. The present transportation act possesses many constructive features and some weakness. IL was the result of com promises in many particulars and these lNeEN dAE cNAiAN eA AAo hSaAN est points"
 Failure of the carriers to earn the amounts provided under the act as a I fair return, Mir. Hoover asserts, dis proves the current fiction" that earin- ings are guaranteed"
 Wage contrPl and strike prevention phases of the act are considered unsatis- factory by Mir. Hoover on the ground that failure of the local adjustment boards for direct contact between em- ployers an demployes has thrust all la bor disputes upon the railroad labor i board. resulting in practically govern ment fixong of all wages and conditions | of labor.
 There can be no question" the re- port says, that action in some direction is imperative if industry and coumercS are not to be further strangled by g ] shortage in transportation. Whatevei may have been the sins of railroad fin ance in the last generation we are mol only suffering from them but we have
 maintained an attitude of bitterness ir
 our public relationship to our railway,
 for which we pay thrice over it pfeyen' tion of their proper development"

LATEST GERMAN NOTE TO THE
 PREPARATIONS COMMISSION \

Berlin, Nov. 14.-iBy The A. P)- The German nbte to the reparations com mission. made public today, contends that final stabilization of the mark can only be possible after the separations q1es- ti0n, lg 8 been definitely settled in ac- eordanee with Germany's capacity to pay
 Since Germany cannot await such a final settlement, she proposes a proVi- sional one, but, even to achieve this, foreign assistance must be forthcoming The reichbank is declared to be in readi- ness to place 800. OO0, ,e00 gold marks at the disposal of the government for the purpose of stabilization
 The project, 1t is set forth, depends upon the following conditions.
 First, Germany must be freed for three or four years from all payments in cash or in kind under the treaty of Versailles, although she will continue to make de- liveries in kind for the devastated areas so far as these do not entail any in- crease in her floating debt.
 Secoill, Germany considers she should receive minimum of 5Os00e,900 gold marks from foreign banks.
 The foregoing condition the reichsbank considers necessary prior to giving gold from It's reserve. The money to be ad- vRnced by t and the foreign banks will be- Administered by an independent board, When the progress of qualification is sufficiently advanced stne German gov ernment will issue an internal gold lien.
 Half the proceeds of the internal loan and the full yield from the foreign loans will be utilized to cover the payments in cash and in kind due under the Versailles treaty, and the other half of the pro- cteds of the internal loan will be ap- nlied to the requirements of Germany's < own budget
 These measures, it is declared. will en- able Germany to balance her bundget, check the increase in her floating debt and discontinue discounting treasury bllis with the reichsbank.
 Germany moreover states that she will abolish all dlspensable departments. re- diIce- the number of officials, avoid un- productive expenditure, restrict legisla- ion entailing additional expenditure. and redrganize the government enterprises oli a productive basis.
 Germany will take all requisite meas ures to increase production. while re- aiming the eight hour day as the nor nal working day, and will restrict the importation and consumption of luxuries and alcohol.
 Tn order to execute the foregoing plans Germany proposes:
 First, final settlement upon the amount sf Germanys obligations at the earliest sbasibla moment. SO that these obliga- Hons. together with the liquidation of Ne loans can be met from the budget pnrplu5.
 Ercond freedom from payments in cash sr in kind under the Versailles treaty win the reservations previously mention. Cd.
 Third, convocation of a conference oi international financiers with regard tC the bank credit to be accorded to Ger many. and,
 Fourth, adoption of tho suggestions oi ito German government regarding equa- economic rights for Germany.
