There have been frequent Wran-

resented the locating of the pris-

constituted an ever-present men

Never. since the establishment

FATALITIES RISE TO Is IN
CANYON FIRE IN CALIFORNIA

Ignorance of Fire Fight.
ing Methods Is Blamed
in Holocaust

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4.-Be-
tween so and rs men persisted
and AZ others were seriously
burned in a brush fire in Griffith
Park, a check of the blackened
area showed today.
The victims, all county welfare
workers, were cut down by flames
that trapped them in cone
shaped ravine where they had
gone to fight the fire last night.
Some of those who escaped the
inferno claimed they were ordered
into the ravine by ''straw bosses"
City and county authorities have
opened Investigations to fix re-
sponsibility. Firemen blamed the
victims ignorance of fire-fighting
technique.
In fighting the brush fire, the
welfare workers built a back fire
and allowed themselves to be
trapped in the ravine between the
two fires.
Nine of the injured were in
critical condition and physicians
feared their burns might be fatal.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4. (UP).
At least 50 men were burned to
death and 100 more injured Tues
day in canyon fire that en-
veloped Griffith Park Municipal
Fairgrounds, on the northern
edge of the city.
Most of the victims, fire fight
ing volunteers from nearby un-
employed camp, were trapped in
a steep ravine when they were
caught between the main fire
and a "backfire" they had
started.
Within the space of a few
minutes the fire reached it's peak
and raced into the ravine. Sur
founded by 200 acres of burning
brush, the volunteer fire fighters
were killed almost before they
realized their danger.
In the smouldering pit of the
ravine. firemen last night report
ed 50 charred and blackened
bodies had been counted. None
knew how many more there were,
for the smoking ashes were so
hot they could not proceed to the
bottom.
Emergency hospitals in the city
and first aid stations on the
scene gave aid to 100 men who
suffered burns and bruises. Some
were seriously injured, but all
: were expected to live.
All the victims were county
road workers employed on char
Iity relief projects in the vicinity
Firemen believed a carelessly
tossed cigaret caused the dis
aster.
