Violent Quake In California Kills At Least Ten

AOO AlNNCLEho, tHF-A NlOlcIiL earthquake, striking before dawn in the sparsely-settl mountains north of here, killed at least 10 persons Monday and left mount ing toll of damage and injuries.
 AS the first reports of eyewit- nesses filtered out of the little town of Tehachapi, they painted picture of shattered business district, brick-littered streets and a wrecked hotel.
 Doctors and nurses were flown in when ambulances met slide blocked roads.
 Amateur radio operators heard by radio station KTRB in Modesto reported the earth rocked convul- sively, debris tumbling into Main Street in thunderous crashes.
 Children and their parents rushed into the streets, crouched, stunned by the giant shaking. A large water tank crashed, food ing the area.
 Tehachapi, with population of about 5000, is on US. 466 be- tween Bakersfield and Mojave, a little mountain town ,4,000 high, many of whose residents work at the big Monolith Portland Cement plant nearby.
 It also is the site of the state women's prison, which was re-. ported so hard hit that most of it's cluster of two-story buildings are unuSable. A call went out for tents in which to house the 327 inmates, including all of Cali fornia's women convicted of fel- onies. The prisoners were re- ported panic-stricken but unhurt.
 Cave-ins were reported in at least two tunnels in the area, used jointly by the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroads, and all travel was blocked. The SIPS main line to San Francisco, which runs along the coast, was not damaged. But the main-traveled route between here and Bakers field, the Ridge Route GUS. 99 was blocked by a slide near Cor man. A highway patrolman said "It seems like the top of a moun- tain slid off," burying the busy, four-lane freeway route under 25 feet of dirt at one point.
 As dawn came, clouds of dust could be seen rising back in the mountains, indicating landslides deep in the canyons.
 Bakersfield itself, a city of 35,OO0 was hard hit. A refinery was afire, the downtown business district was filtered with rubble, plate glass windows were splin- tered and an explosion blew out the walls of an automobile agency.

Budgets for Congress
By Don S. Warren

The Appropriations Committees
of both the House and Senate
will be granted an extra $3.50. 900
each for more staff experts to
handle the mounting Federal
budgets when Congress cleans up
its final work.
The extra money is included
in the still-snagged last supple
mental appropriations bill. The
funds for enlarging the Appropri-
alton Committees stats. however.
lis not in dispute and will be avail
able when Congress settles the
remaining issue over the atomic
energy appropriation.
Joint Staff Asked Earlier.
The inspiration for enlarging
the committee stats has stemmed
from bill by Chairman McClel-
Ian of the Senate Government
Operations Committee. This called
for creation of a joint committee
on the budget. It envisioned Joint
staff work and joint committee
hearings.
The Senate passed this bill. but
it was spiked in the House.
AS an alternative, the House
asked for an additional $500. 900
for more staff. for its appropria-
tions committee.
House Senate conferees on the
big supplemental bill compromised
this question by agreeing on an
extra $3.50, 900 for each of the two
Appropriations Committees.
Senator Mcclellan. Arkansas,
Democrat. said he, did not regard
the new move as q substitute for
his joint budget committee plan.
but he added, 1T is some advance
towards the goal. 1t does not meet
the real need, but it is an i'm
lprovement."
Sees Money Saving.
He indicated a staff of experts
to serve a joint committee would
save money by not requiring sep
farate STATS for each Of the two
committees.
Under his plan, there awould he
joint staff analysis Of budget re-
quests from the Federal depart
ments and Joint hearings on them,
but In writing up the bills each
appropriations committee would
act separately, as now.

plan in the next Congress.
