COURAGEOUS PEOPLE
The mighty convulsions of the
earth left a shambles in a part of
Long Beach, the largest suburb of
Los Angeles, but an independent
city. While the earth still rocked
and rumbled, the ready nerved
populace glimpsed the widespread
devastation. A steady stream of
persons passed thru the aisles of
marble slabs in the morgue, in
search for missing loved ones, and
sometimes finding them. Other
thousands sought safety in the
parks of Lon Beach. Some of
these formed lines to receive food
from social welfare organizations,
and others sat silent without ap
petites.
ALL BUSINESS CEASED
Blue-clad United States sailors!
kept guard over seme of the brok- '
en buildings, augmenting the po-1
lice. Others turned back all in- i
coming traffic, representing hun- j
dreds of persons hoping to end i
their anxiety for relatives and!
friends. A lef wsmall stands did a )
thriving business, but none of the I
larger buildings opened. ;
QUAKE TOOK JOB OVER
LONGBEACH, March 13.—The
old Virginia hotel was adorned by
a sign “Watch It Go,” placed there
a week ago by wreckers engaged in
tearing down the structure. The
earthquake took the job out of the
wrecker’s hands.
The tenacity with which people
clung to their first refuge in the
streets, parks and fields caused an
army transport to be used to bring
cords of firewood. This precaution
was utilized also as authorities
prepored to shut off electric power
lines because of numerous small
blazes started thruout the day by
broken wires.
MORGUE REMAINED
COMPTON, Calif., March 13.—
One of the few buildings left
standing in two blocks of this
town, which suffered a death toll i
of 16 tvas the Neel Funeral Parlors !
where bodies of victims were first1
taken.
GIRLS STUCK TO POSTS
LOS ANGELES. March 13—Be
cause six girls, clerks in the office
of the countv auditor, refused to
be alarmed tho the massive Hall
Df Records rocked repeatedly, work
ers on the R. F. C. nayroll received
their salaries.
None of the 13 giant dams in Los
Angeles county, which hold back
millions of toes of water, were ■
damaged by the quake, E. C. Eaton,!
flood control engineer, reported af- :
ter an examination of the struc- ,
tures.
GROUNDLESS RUMOR
The cry of “tidal wave” caused j
about 2.000 Long Beach residents
to flee to higher ground Saturday,
but most of them returned to their
places by the sea. There was lit
tle to return to, hotwever. The
new 700.000 postoffice now under
construction was badly cracked.
Churches and schools were crumbl
ed and broken. Among the unusu
al features of the quake was the
ICft CREEPERS and OOLIGAN
NETS at J. L. Graef.

FRIGHTENED TO DEATH
Members of the coroners’ offices
said the mounting fear of contin
uing shocks, the feeling that each
might be worse than the preceding
one. induced death. An example
of the deadly effect of this form of
fright was the case of Irene Hen
dricksen, 11, of Los Angeles. Ter
rorized by a night of shocks, the
little girl jumped from her bed
early in the morning and asked
her mother if there was another
earthquake. Receiving an affirm
ative answer, the girl fell dead.
FEAR OF DISEASE
LOS ANGELES, March 13—Fear
of disease getting a foothold in
the earthquake-torn area of the
metropolitan district thru water
pollution or unregulated sanitation
added more woe Sunday to the
predicament of homeless thous
ands.
United relief agencies went into
action on a wide front, however,
and first aid hospitalization, food
distribution and even reconstruc
tion work gathered momentum
while the earth was still shaking.
General property loss despite
conflicting estimates is placed at
$25,000,000. Ten thousand soldiers,
sailors and marines, are standing
guard while constantly renewed
work crew's began clearing away
debris from the earthquake and
fire.
TALKS TO THE PEOPLE
WASHINGTON, D. C., March 13.
—President Roosevelt broadcast a
message to the country Sunday
evening explaining the reason for
the national bank holiday and as
suring the people in common walks
of life that money placed in the
reopened banks will be safer than
in banks as formerly conducted,
or under mattresses. The Presi
dent sent his radio address from
the White House.
LATE SUNDAY REPORTS
A late report estimates that gen
35th earthquake since late Friday
afternoon shook Southern Califor
nia.
A late report estimates tha gen
eral property loss between $50,
000.000 and $60,000,000.
Thirteen business blocks in
Compton, which had a population
of 30,000, were practically leveled.
This scene presents the most deso
late of all.
Long Beach had a population of
160,000 at the time of the quake.
Four and five-story buildings were
shaken down, but taller buildings,
the highest of which is 14 stories
withstood the shocks.
THE LATEST REPORT
LOS ANGELES, March 13—The
revised quake death list is placed
at 118 after elimination of a num
ber of duplications. Approximate
ly 4,000 were injured and property
damage is estimated at $40,000,000.
