The encouraging feature of the situation is that the nation has never before been so well equipped with organized facilities for coping with an emergency of this character.

Indeed, from the | | point of view of the scientists the manifestation of earthquake phenomena | in this external area will perhaps be regarded as more important as a con- tribution to seismic data. 7 . The fact that within a hundred-mile radius of the stricken city a score of towns have been demolished with a loss of life and a destructive-| . ness probably equalling that in San Francisco, and that the shock was | severely felt four hundred miles to the south and two hundred to the east, cates that the California earthquake belt must hereafter rank in possi- s of catastrophe with Calabria, Japan and the E Indies. This region, of course, has been’ liable to seismic disturbances since} the first settlers came.
