SANTA CLARA, Calf, March IL
DR.. Albert J. Newlin, director Of Richard
Memorial Observatory at Santa Clara
University, declared today the Southern
California earthquake was Surprisingly
local In effect, smoderate in intensity,
most severe under the ocean and at
tended by an exceptionally low death
rate"
The quake, he said, was comparable
to the Santa Barbara earthquake Of
eight years ago, but mot quite as Sc
vcre."
Classifying all quakes into four divi-
sions-very light, light, moderate and
severe, this would be classified as
Slightly above moderate but in no
sense severe" DR.. Newlin said. 1T In no
manner approximated the recent up
heaval in Japan, which was wholly Of
the severe type"
DR.. Newlin said the quake was not
along the San Andreas fault, which
passes to the east Of Los Angeles, but
was along . emau fault which dips into
the ocean west Of Los Angeles.
buildings and structures built on or
near these faults should be constructed
with this In mind" he said; there was
surprisingly low lo<s Of life in the Fri
day shake. This was probably due to
the better building precautions which
are being taken. Many people ran from
buildings In front Of automobiles, or
jumped from windows and were hurt.
Here and there some one was injured
by flying bricks. But very few were
hurt by the direct action OF the earth
quake-the collapse of buildings, This
would not have been true many years

which shook Southern California last
night and to-day were the most severe
recorded since that region has become

His records disclosed only one Of as

with its epicenter at TETON Pass, which
was felt as far north as Ban Francisco.
Last nights temblors, however Sc

caused to life and property, were not
he said. Southern California's latest
qlakes did not carry the magnitude Of
the Japanese quake Of few weeks ago
nor was there nearly the energy In
volved In the great Toxic quake Of 10
years ago.
Previous quakes have not stricken
the Long Beach area. Calexico on
January !, 1927, suffered . severe quake,
probably as sharp As last nights, but
the area involved was much less. In
1890 there was q sharp quake in Santa
Monica Bay. Inglewood was damaged
on June 81, 1920, by most severe quake
Of limited area, and In 1918 there were
sharp temblors causing damage at San

fornia.
Because Of quick work by relief forces
ON the spot their task was largely one
Of backstopping and organizing to as
sure the damaged communities and
their inhabitants of adequate funds and

Is to be made on what money to send
in. William De Kleine, director Of dis
aster relief, sped West by airplane.
The earthquake had an echo In Con-
gress, where the House directed reso-
luton Of coincidence to the people Of
the stricken area. Another reaction
was at the State Department, where
Ambassador Debuchi Of Japan pre-
sented in person the sympathy Of his
government, recalling Japan's great
debt to the United States for the mil
lions poured into that country by
Americans in 1928 when earthquakes
devastated the principal Japanese cities
After the naval radio carried orders
westward, Admiral Richard Leigh, COM
mander in chief Of the fleet, reported
back that the situation was under con-
troll, with landing forces ashore pa
trolling areas where they were needed
to prevent looting.

ready. Wonderful spirit cooperation
and volunteer help everywhere"
Senator McAdoo, Democrat, Of Cali
fornia, wired offers of assistance to the
mayors of Los Angeles and Long Beach
The Red Cross expressed quantities
Of ready-made cotton clothing and bed
