LOS ANGELES, April 10.-Thc
/ failure of the St. Francis dar,
| March 13 was due to the washing
away of the conglomerate foundat'
ion under the west wing. city cOun-
ell $ investigating committee report
I'd today.
The committee, composed "f DIR
Elwood Mead, of the United States
Reclamation Service, Louis G. Hill
and General Lansing Beach, found
ro other factor which might hav''
contributed to the disaster which
claimed more than 300 lives IL tia
Santa Clara river valley.
The following conclusions were
reached by the experts after first
hand examination ct a!l evidence:
1.-The type and dimensions o.
the dam were amply sufficient II
based upon suitable foundation.
2-The concrete Of which the darl
was built of ample slrength t.
resist the stresses to which it would
normally be subjected.
3-The failure can not be laid T.
movement Of the earth 3 crust.
The dam failed because of de
fcttive foundation.
This failure reflects in no way
upon the stability of well designed
gravity dams, properly founded on
suitable bedrock
THE report followed the same gen.
cral lines as that made by the com
mittees appointed by Governor
Young and District Attorney Asa
keves.
"Thc failure apparently occurred
IN this manner. the report read.
"The first lcah. however started.
began under the concrete at the.
part Of the dam which stood on tha
red cOnglOlncratc.
Coroner To Get Report
"This leak Increased in volume
and passing under the daA ran
down the hillside toward the stecr
slope on the east bank, causing the
east bank to be undermined and to
slide.
alt was such q slide which early
produced the break in the transmits
sion line OF the Southern California
Edison Company
This slide was followed by others
causing the undermining of thc cas-
end of the dam. The sequence OF
failure is uncertain.
With the undermining e the
dam on both sides, section after sect.
ion failed, leaving only the central
section in place. -
The opinion that the west sid
of the dam failed first was base.
on the fact that the foundation on
that side was the weakest, the re
port said.
The entire findings. it was said.
would be presented to the c"roncr 5
jury this afternoon. At morning
sc ssion of the inquest, r. II. Porter,
engineer, testified that it was his
belief that major earth movement
caused the dam failure.
