Roxus Asks He| p for Quake Victims
500 Killed,
Thousands


Philippine Consul General
Roxas of San Francisco has
issued an appeal to Filipinos
on the Pacific Coast for do
nations to the earthquake
victims of the Philippines.
The earth temblor that shook
the Philippines on April l and
again on April II, hardly hitting
the southern part of the Islands,
has left about 500 killed and more
than 10000 homeless.
Crop damage has been estimat-
ed at five million dollars, while
destruction to homes and prop
erty, churches and public build
ings is expected to reach several
million dollars.
All Philippine social welfare
agencies and charitable organiza-
lions have been modified into full
gear for the relief of all the I'M
fortunate victims, and President
Ramon Magsaysay, who flew to
the devastated areas and saw the
terrible destruction is now appeal
ing to everyone to extend a help
ing hand, according to Consul
General Roxas.
The Consul General asks that
donations in the form of food,
clothing. and medicine can be sent
to the Philippine Consulate Cen
eral in San Francisco from where
they will be shipped to Manila. All
checks must be made payable to
the Social Welfare Administra-
ton, Manila. Philippines, and ear
marked for the earthquake VIC
Tins, Roxas states in a circular.
On the local scene, Vice Consul
L. R. Cabatit, who is officer-in-
charge of the Philippine Consulate
here, has wired the Department of
Foreign Affairs in Manila, asking
for official authority to organize a
relief drive in the Northwest for
the earthquake victims.
Mr.. Cabatit told the Forum that
he sent the eablegram on April 4.
and at press time april 20) he
has not yet heard from the home
office.

call for reservation and are directed to the
take-of point nearest you. There will be
many such points within single city. Yours
may be downtown at Battery Park. or per-

somewhere in Brooklyn or Queens.
When your flight is called, you will have to

wing tip long barrel-shaped structure. piv-
oted to rotate on an axis. Now as your plane
stands on the ground. the barrel is standing
on end. Actually this is the housing for the
jet engine, which is of the Quoted fan type.
Perhaps you will also notice the heavy con-
crete apron on which the plane stands This
will be necessary because OF the heat and
velocity of the jet thrus, which raises your
plane from the ground
Now you are comfortably settled and ready
for the take-off. As the plane gains altitude.
watch those jet engines turn on their pivots.
Take-off is surprisingly smooth and COM
Portable. You rise straight up - not at an
angle - with about the same sensation as that

time of the take-off to the time of full forward

The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1955-12-22
White Christmas For BIuftOn Overdue
This Year, A Year Record Indicates

On the basis of Bluffton Yuletide
weather conditions over the last al
years, the odds favor White Christ
mas, perennial hope for each holiday
Over the long span of the last four
and half decades there have been 25
Christmas Days with snow and 19
holiday observances have been in a
green setting.
For the last two years BIuffton
weather has been warm on Christmas
Day without trace of snow, but for
four consecutive holidays prior to that
the community was blanketed in
white.
Sundays wintry setting with a pic
turesque mantle of white covering the
ground and making black and white
fillagree work of the tree branches is
another indication that the local COM
munity is likely to go back to a white
scene. AT least the law of averages
favors it.
Heaviest snowfall of the 44-yeal
period was in 1916 when a roaring
blizzard brought 12-inch snowfall tc
the area. In 1885 Bluffton had eight
inches of snow, the heaviest snowfall
in recent years, although seven inches
of snow fell in 1914 and six inches in
1850.
