JOHN'S Newfoundland, Nov. 22—The toll of the tidal wave which lashed the isolated section of the south coast of Burin Penin- sula after last Monday’s earthquake, is believed to be close to 35 lives with property loss of great extent among the small villages. A radio message flashed last night from the Burin Telegraph Station listed 20 names of men, wemen and children dead but this does not include fatalities in Burin, the largest town on the Peninsula and where earlier dispatches re- ported nine dead.
