PARIS, Sept. 5.-An 8-article draft
agreement between Italy and Aus
tria. designed to meet Austria's COM
plants regarding Italian mainten-
snce OF the Southern Tyrol was
forwarded yesterday to the Italian
Treaty Commission for ratification
by the 81 nations represented at
the Paris conference.
This agreement. the first of its
kind to be accepted by the Italians
for the Tyrol, was achieved through
private conversations with Italian
delegates, initiated by Austria's 8
Foreign Minister, Karl Gruber.
Under its provisions, which follow
the general principles adopted by
the Gothard convention in 1907
signed by Switzerland, Italy and
Germany, for movement OF passen-
gers and goods from Germany to-
wards Italy via the Swiss-held CO.
thard Tunnel-Italy will permit free
transit of Austrian goods and pas
sengers through the Brenner Pass.
The Austrians repeatedly had
complained that the maintenance Of
the Southern Tyrol by the Italians
had disrupted trafic. The only con-
venient railroad link between West
and East Tyrol crosses the Brenner
and runs through the Pusterthal
Valley, and both are Italian-held.
The Austro-Italian draft agree
ment stipulates that all passenger
and merchandise trains from Austria
on the Brenner- -Fortezza San Can
dido line, which joins Western and
Eastern Tyrol through Italian terri
tory will be permitted to move free
of customs duties in transit. Rail-
road cars will be sealed ut the Ital-
ian side Of the pass and accompanied
by Italian police during passage
across Italy. There is no limitation
az to number Of cars and no speci-
fications aS TO contents.

Caribbean UpheovoI Rips Earth
 SuIfurous Fumes
 Rise in Crevices;
 Towns Damaged

Ciudad Trujillo, Dominican Re- public, Aug 6 -CUP)- Mortified peasants who lived through the earthquake and tidal wave on the northern Dominican shore described 1t today as a thunderous upheaval which ripped open the earth, sent up sulfurous fumes and churned the Atlantic into a frenzy.
 Fragmentary reports from the stricken northeastern shore dis closed an exceptional geologic dis turbance of frightful majesty.
 Thousands of peasants fled into continued to shiver spasmodically long after the first violent quake early Sunday afternoon.
 30 Quakes Reported
 In San Juan, on nearby Puerto Rico, seismographs recorded more than 50 small quakes in the West Indies between Sunday afternoon and last night.
 The towns of MatanzaS and Villa Julia Molina at the head of Esco- cesa Bay were reported virtually f1attened by the tidal wave. Per- sons reaching here from Matanzas said there were many casualties.
 Four persons were reported dead Broken communications delayed a check on casualties, and the toll may run much higher
 Before the earthquake witnesses said. booming submarine explosions of great intensity were heard. They compared them to descriptions of atom bomb explosions.
 Escape Before Wave
 Then the quake hit Buildings collapsed Railroad tracks were twisted like strands of steel wire. Roads were torn up. Villagers passing a sleepy Sunday afternoon in the excessive heat, jumped up and ran for open country
 Next came the tidal wave
 With swelling roar it rolled up the bay and smashed against the towns. Dwellings and shops were swept away by the waves Slabs of walls and roofs were hurled inland from the shore
 CA U. 3 Navy pilot from
 Puerto Rico who flew over
 Matanzas said the tidal wave
 seemed to have destroyed most
 of the town1
 After the tidal wave, reports said, there were jagged ruptures in the earth's surface. Fountains of sul- furous waters were said to have Spurted from the crevices.

.leHe, % Santa

ST wrote a note to Stanta Claus
I thought it would be fun.
I said I'd like lot OF things
Especially gun.
But Father shook his head ana
said
That wise old Santa knew
I'd shoot myself or someone else
And that would never do.
So then l wrote and asked him tor
A sleigh with jingle bells,
An auto, and train of cars,
And a pound of caramels.
But sister May she cried
Oh, don't ask for all those noisy
toys
And Santa knows that candy
Amt good for little boys.
So then wrote and asked him for
A music box to play
And a watch just like my fathers
To tell the time of day.
But brother Tom he laughed and
said
Your brain must be askew.
Old Santa never brings such things
To little kids like you.
At first I felt discouraged
But now I'm not because
My mother says that no one knows
The mind of Santa Claus.
She says it's safe to let him bring
Whatever he thinks best,
And mother has, truly think,
More sense than all the rest"
