Chance was kind, they declare, in that the full force of the earthquake was not felt in the most thickly populated districts and that the tremors occurred at an hour when the greater percentage of the people were in the open instead of CIRCUIT RIDER within buildings which were razed. To those who have gone through similar disturbances, the horrors of the situation in the South are very real, said the Berkeley Daily Gazette, adding: “For these reasons and the multitude of ties that bed the North and South, Northern California is deeply concerned today over the disaster that has befallen the South, and stands and relieve the suffering and privation of the thousands of vicready to extend every aid at its tims of the earthquake.” command to restore order The Hayward Review said: “We people of Northern California know what a severe earthquake means, and everyone here sends sympathy to the California is all one, from Hornbrook to Calexico, and if Northern California finds it can lend any aid to Southern: California in its time of need, it will be people of the afflicted area. happy to lend every assistance.” “To say that the rest of California and the entire world sympathize with the people of the stricken area is not necesremarked the El Centrol Imperial Valley.

This effort is contagious, spreading far and near as men rally to the aid of their stricken fellows, backing up their sympathy with material assistance.’ Commenting on the Avadnificiont response from every part of the state, the Bakersfield Californian said: “At times it appears that. rivalry of various kinds might lead to cleavage and weaken the bonds by which the commonwealth is bound. Strangely enough, disaster in any part of the state instantly proves the fallacy of such i impressions and demonstrates its splendid solidarity.”’ “Already the marvel of the world for its achievements in the rapid building of a beautiful and happy community, and Southern California will go om undaunted,” Francisco News. and more solid development.” “The Southland’s courageous and enterprising citizens may be relied upon to do the utmost to turn disaster to op“The hustling citiportunity,” said the Stockton Record. zenry who in the past converted a desert into-a paradise may be expected to triumph over the present emergency—as formidable as it appears. states the San “And some day the date of what now seems a crushing disaster will be seen as the starting point ofa finer The Red Cross Appeals For Earthquake Relief Fund Fe To relieve the distress of thousands of men, women and children camped in the parks of Southern California cities since the earthquake last Friday night, the American Red Cross appeals to the people of the Pacific Coast States to raise funds immediately. Governor James Rolph, Jr., of California, by proclamation, has designated the Red Cross as the official relief and rehabilitation agency and urges support of the Red Cross. Many homes have been destroyed or seriously damaged. Owing to the lack of housing facilities, thousands of disaster eufferers have been sheltered in tents in Bixby and Recreation Parks, ‘Long Beach: Other thousands in this and other communities have made use _ of space on lawns to set up tents in their effort to carry on. Mass feeding has been conducted in ‘Long Beach, Compton, Artestia and all in the affected aréa.

At the same time all Red Cross Chap' ters have been asked to mobilize their { forces and finances to help the stricken people of Southern California. Thousands are without savings and facilities to help themselves. They have turned to the Red Cross for help. Money is needed for hospital bills, medical care, as well as for the rehabilitation program covering the repairing and rebuilding of homes. Funds are needed to get the families out of the public parks and back into their homes. The Disaster Relief program of the Red Cross does not include rehabilitation of business property or business housesthat were damaged or destroyed.

PROPOSED TRUCK TAX TO BENEFIT COUNTIES SACRAMENTO, Mar 19—(UP)— Passage of a senate bill, introduced by Senator Bert B. Snyder, Santa Cruz, providing a ‘‘ton’’ mile tax for trucks and trailers would give Nevada City $3,577.94 as its share for street work. The meéasure would displace present flat fees on heavy vehicles based on their unladen weight, with license taxes computed on_ gross weight mileage actually -travelled. Senator Snyder declared something could be done to compel ‘‘commercial users of our streets and highways to pay their fair share of the expense of the maintenance and construction.’”’ “Our splendid highway system has encouraged extensive use of heavily loaded trucks and trailers,’: “Snyder continued. ‘This results in much wear and tear on city streets and roads generally. “Gasoline taxes paid in the operation of such trucks are insufficient compensation for the facilities enjoyed. It is well known that a truck may weigh four times as much as an ordinary passenger car and yet uses only twice as much fuel per mile.”’ 0 The infant son of Mr. and Mrs. the flu. contract, or, Will Hatch has been very ill with . : YOUR NEEDS From Nevada City Nugget f[CLASSIFIED ADs ‘d WANTS WORK—Experienced Camp Cook. 15 years experience.
