To begin with there is a fault, the St. Andreas fault, a very pronounced crack in the earth extending thru San Bernardino and other counties, says A. Bevillard, local amateur geologist. The surfaces of the sides of this crack do not fit well, and the attraction of the moon and other forces during the rotation of the earth causes the two surfaces to be slid and pushed away from each other, until at the end of a few years they have gone to a point beyond which the rigidity of the earth's crust will not permit them to pass, and they fly back, producing the quake. The late Orilla Kennedy of San Bernardino studied the fault carefully, according to Clyde Williams, and devised an instrument said to have been superior to the seismograph. This consisted of a long tab- HARDING, IN ALASKAN SPEECH, PRAISES TE President Harding, indicated by arrow, speaking at Ketchikan, Alaskans who have seen Preal- things—the president's earnest | bilities of traction of the moon and other forces during the rotation of the earth causes the two surfaces to be slid and pushed away from each other, until at the end of a few years they have gone to a point beyond which the rigidity of the earth's crust will not permit them to pass, and they fly back, producing the quake. The late Orlis Kennedy of San Bernardino studied the fault carefully, according to Clyde Williams, and devised an instrument said to have been superior to the seismograph. This consisted of a long tablet of concrete with the mechanism inside it. The federal government was so much interested in the device that it proposed to purchase it and install it on Mt. Wilson, but whether it did or not, Williams doesn't know. At the time of the San Jacinto-Hemet quake, in which many building of Hemet were partly destroyed, Kennedy, according to Bevillard, predicted the quake within 15 minutes of its occurrence from the extent to which the surfaces of the fault already had been slid out of place. He did not himself realize that the quake would come so true to the time he estimated, and when he told a woman to wait in his shop and she would experience one he spoke half jokingly. But he did figure one was due. INFANT DECEASED Sarah Sanchez, three-day infant of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Sanchez, of Buena Park, was buried today in Holy Cross following a brief ceremony in the Huddle chapel.

HENDERSON WITH PRESIDENT HARDING ENROUTE TO VANCOUVER, B. C. July 24.—The critics who found fault with President Harding's speeches on his westward trip across the continent will be answered in a series of addresses the president plans making in Seattle and southward to San Diego. The more than three weeks that have elapsed since the president spoke last in Tacoma have allowed him ample time to weigh the results and witness the reaction to his score of addresses on his outward trip. These reflections will be embodied in his coastwise utterances. His outward bound speeches which aroused controversy such as foreign affairs at St. Louis and the agricultural situation at Hutchinson will probably be retouched upon during the Pacific coast journey. According to the present plan, the president will make his Seattle speech Friday a roundup and summary of his Alaskan trip. The president is known to deem Seattle the proper place for such a speech, inasmuch as it is the gateway to Alaskan territory. Agricultural conditions will probably be retouched upon at Sacramento and it is not unlikely that the president will reply to the recent utterances of Senator Brookhart of Iowa. Since the president has been absent from Washington, the Minnesota election, revealing still widespread discontent among the rural populace, has convinced President Harding of the need for more presidential utterances on this problem. The problem of foreign affairs will be dealt with again in San Francisco July 31. The Henderson was steaming today off Charlotte Sound. No stops were made in order to gain time to allow President Harding a few hours for fishing in Campbell River. He has been promised the best trout.

DAD PICKS NAME TO EXPEDITE "PAPERS" CHICAGO, July 24.—While Herak Tabak was in court to get his final naturalization papers he received word that his wife had presented him with their fourth child. Hurriedly Tabak notified the court and asked to have his papers corrected to include the latest arrival. "You'll have to give the child's name or he won't be a citizen," the court informed him. Unwilling to delay longer receipt of his "papers" Tabak braved the probable displeasure of his wife and named the child after the clerk. WEATHER Fair, moderately warm to night and Wednesday.
