As f as could be learned, n« n the nature of this phenomenon has curred on the Maine coast for more an a score of vears, and probabl ot for a much longer period. Dam Break May Be Cause. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., January 9 (@) A so-called “tidal wave” at South: est Harbor, Me., was entirely local in aracter and may have been caused Ly the breaking of a dam of ice at the aouth of the harbor, Prof. ather. dean the observatory farvard University, said today. Pre Matber said the university sei: wograph showed no record of any arth disturbance. He believed it po: ible th th outgoing tide had car- ried enough ice with it to form a dam at the I d of the ragged inlet which at forms the harbor, and that the incom- | 5 tide caused th had broken this dam and sudden inrush of water. LIKE HAWAIL WAVES. SAN FRANCISCO, January I'he ocean phenomenon w day at Bernard, Me., apparently is a duplicate of the series of tidal waves following a*subsidence of the Pacific Ocean, which swept the beaches of the Hawaiian Island in February, 1923. Two persons were Kkilled, a child vept from a sampan in Hilo Harbe und a Japane: tated when caught between his bob. Ling boal as it was tossed against a trestle over Hilo River. Damage from the disturbance was esiimated at $100,000. During the subsidence and the sub- sequent inrush of the ocean into the harbors of the territory Navigation Co. liner Matsonia touched, ihe mud bottom of Hilo Harbor once Lut floated off with the fnrush of water. The Standard O} tanker Doane was carried toward a reef from its wnchorage by the rush of ind then carried back to safety by the recession. Residents of Hilo, frightened at the phenomenon, pack- ed their belongings and trudged to- ward the highlands Although the vocanic crater of 1alemaumau at Kilauea remained in- active during the disturbance, the vol- cano observatory recorded several rth shocks estimated to have been between 2,000 and 3,000 miles away from the islands. They were the heav- jest shocks ever recorded on the sels- nograph, sefsmologists sald. Volcanologists sald that the phenom- snon was the result of a suboceanic earthquake which apparentlv opened a crack in the Pacific's floor. Into this the waters were sucked and then thrown back, causing the entire sur- ace to recede for hundreds of miles 2nd then resume its usual height with rushing back of the waters.

However disguised, every argu- ment in, opposition to the pending resolution is an appeal to what is | believed to be u settled hatrec of the | League or fear lest its value as a polit- ical asset be depresed.

In this| | connection, Senator Williams sald: | “I have recently read again a plank lof the national platform of the Re- | publican party adopted at Cleveland on the 12th of June, 1924.
