Remarkable Photo of Quake

RENO, New, Dec. 27.-This pos
sibly should betclassified with the
accident on its way to happen"
For it concerns the first action
picture Of an earthquake-an earth
quake 'quaking" while the camera
shot.
And its veracity Is attested by a
Nevadan who is newspaper pub
Usher, former Governor and a
former university president. And he
qualities further because he is a
mining engineer and geologist.
Also, the story clears up the mys-
terry Of plane apparently dropping
to its doom ins the high Sierra
mountains, a cloud of smoke aris-
ing from the wilderness shortly
thereafter. Many planes and men
engaged in the frantic search for
the fallen" plane and possible sur
vivors of the crash.
Three in Plane
Early in the morning of Nov. 90,
James G. Scrugham, former Cover
nor of Nevada, and now publisher
Of a Reno newspaper, left Reno for
an airplane trip over the high
Sierras. With him we're Roy Cur
tbs, photographer, and Charles La
jotte, pilot of the plane.
Shortly before noon, the plane
was eighteen miles west of indie
pendence, Cal, flying about 1000
feet above the mountainous terrain,
which has 12,000-foot elevation in
this vicinity.
The group suddenly saw a vast
cloud Of dust, arising from noun
tainside almost directly underneath.
A tremendous landslide was under
way.
Scrugham's training in engineer
ing and geology intuitively told him
that an earthquake was then in
progress, and caused the slides. He
Instructed Lajotte to circle the
mountain, and as the plane drew
into position, Curtis took this pic
ture, just as a huge rock cliff on
the left spur Of the quaking noun
tain was cleaving away.
Quake is Recorded
Scrugham calls attention to the
fault line'-or line of breakage-
starting at the top of the cleavage,
and extending down through the
landslide to the canyon floor below.
The cleaving rock moved further
away, but did not break and slide
downhill.
To check his belief, Scrugham
says, he noted the time as HAS
a. m. When he returned to Reno,
he checked with the University of
Nevada. where ne was formerly
president, and found the seismo-
graph. 200 miles away from his
mountainous scene, recorded the
earth shock, travelling north to
south, a few seconds before Scrug-
ham obtained his remarkable pic
ture.
Fears Aroused
Flreo py Sclentl1lc curiosity, the
Scrugham party kept its plane div
ing in and out of the canyons, seek
ing further photographs. And some
ranchers, seeing an airplane engag-
ing in peculiar maneuvers, dive out
of sight, and then watched what
apparently was a column of smoke
arising. spread an alarm. 1t was
feared a cabin plane had exploded.
Searchers got on the job by plane
and by land from sources in the
triangle between San Francisco.
Reno and Los Angeles. Commercial
alrllnes made frantic checkup of
their planes. 1t was not until the
return, some time later. of the
Scrugham party that the real facts
OF the case became known.

Wall Street Attempts
to Scare Nicaraguans
in IAN Armed Display

MANAGUA, June 12.-W all
Street yesterday treated the Nicara-
guam workers and peasants to an
armed display of its forces, as an
attempt to overawe the discomfort
of the oppressed workers.
The United States marine forces
passed in review before Brigadier
General Dion Williams, command
ing the Wall Street troops here, in
a ceremony in which rifles and bay
onets bristled. Medals were awarded
to several marine officers for their
service to Wall Street in slaughter
ing the Nicaraguan workers.
An attempt was made by the ma
rine officers to appease the resi-
dents of San Pedro, a nearby town,
where marines several days ago
desecrated tombstones, to the great
indignation of the inhabitants.
Wreaths were placed on the stones
by the officers.
