Fullerton ranchers, were denied judgment for damages their groves are alleged to have sustained from dust emitted by L. A. Paving plant on industrial tract. Superior Jduge P. C. Drummat at Santa Ana late yearday ordered plant to cease operations forever unless equipment can be installed to prevent dust, gases and smoke. The decision was given despite assertion of E. R. Werdin, president of company, that it would cost him $7000 to move plant from present location. He added he did not know of any other place in Orange co. suitable for operation of "hot plant" at which unhilite paving materials are manufactured. Bean had asked $10,000 damages and Cornwall $7500. As plaintiffs in case, however, Judge Drummat ruled they should be paid costs of bringing and trying their lawsuit, which occupied ten days. Under decision it was made apparent Fullerton may lose one of the first industries to locate on its tract unless changes in plant can be made. If this decision is made binding I will say that every paving plant in California can be driven from present locations, and perhaps from any location." Mr. Werdin stated. The foregoing statement was the only one he cared to make at this time, he declared. There is no question that some rows of trees in two groves have been damaged." Judge Drummat declared in giving his decision "that I am unable to fix amount of damage." So far an operation of plant is concerned palliatifs may have relief asked and permanent injunction will be made effective unless company can do away with dust, gases and smoke complained of. If L. A. Paving Co. is no advised, and desires to and is able to operate its plant with these limitations, the court feels it should be allowed to do so. "I am reluctant to take this sten that unquestionably will work hardship upon company, but I don't believe plant's use in this location is so necessary that plaintiff shall be so burdened." The company will be given at least ten days longer to operate before court order goes into effect. In meantime contracts the company has for materials can be filled, it was explained.

Sharpley, travelling agent of the S.P. traffic department, apoke in most optimistic vein this morning regarding situation for grower.

Sharpley has talked with many persons all told him the same thing. A.W. Fullerton, assistant manager of Pepper and Miller, who claim to be largest cash purchasers of fruit in county, was an optimistic ever. His house will begin buying fruit probably first of next week, altho no definite date has been set. The firm will not start shipping fruit, however, for three weeks yet. He has received many inquiries from growers. "Somebody will have to loosen up," Fullerton remarked, when asked whether growers were still holding off. "The final factor in prices is cast." Fullerton also made it clear it was frostless fruit that would bring high returns. "Those who have good fruit will be sitting pretty," he remarked. In 1922 price reached 7 out of 1-2 cents per pound on the tree, according to Fullerton.

Small Says Devastation Can Only Be Pictured by Those Who See It By LEN SMALL (Governor of Illinois as told to International News Service on completion of its tour of the tornado devastated area of Illinois.) CARBONDALE, Ill., March 20—My survey of storm devastated area of southern Illinois has appalled and stunned me. Havoc lying in path of cyclone cannot be adequately described in words. Splendidly as have newspaper writers sent out tidings, real story cannot be told; it can only be realized by those who have viewed scenes of destruction. It is most gratifying, however, to find in every suffering community and in towns, cities and villages adjacent to storm area, such splendid organizations of men and women who have banded themselves together for relief work in great emergency. The Red Cross, church and civic bodies, supplemented and led by military forces of state are rapidly bringing order out of chaos. I am advised that voluntary contributions to various funds being raised for relief work have been generous. This is pleasing news for need is great. Whole families have been wiped out in many instances, others decimated by sudden death and thousands injured are enough to excite pity but when you add to this utter destruction of hundreds of homes, then you have a picture that is not easily described. So far as relief facilities at command of stat are concerned, relief work will go forward with reduced effort and from what I have observed of activities of other agencies functioning in same direction I can say same for them.

FEAR PESTILENCE IN TORNADO ZONE CHICAGO, March 20—A new terror—the dread of pestilence—raised its head in the tornado stricken area of southern Illinois today. Destruction of all sanitation devices and the ever increasing piles of dead, all too hastily attended to brought an order to the Chicago health department to rush another unit of contagion experts into Murphysboro. One such unit was sent into plague threatened area yesterday but, according to message to Chicago, its members have been required for casualty relief work, and message expressed fear workers on scene would not be sufficient to cope with situation. Health Commissioner Herman M. Bundenson immediately conferred with Red Cross officials here and they declared some new possibility of contagion must have developed since they received message ILLINOIS Heads List With 650 and Indiana is Next With 99 FINAL death toll of Wednesday's tornado will contain less than 850 names; it was established with virtual certainty this afternoon when the 2:30 o'clock semi-official casualty reports from five states placed the total dead at 823, an increase of but ten over figures compiled by Intl. News Service at 9 a.m. Scattered deaths in rural districts probably as yet unreported and establishing of fact that several persons reported missing were swept away by the tornado; it is believed may swell this slightly, but Red Cross officials declared worst, is already known. The slight changes in casualty figures today in contrast to wild, constantly revised reports of yesterday, gave evidence of order which has come out of chaos in devastated area. It is not 21 hours since reliable officials were estimating dead at upwards of 1500. The dead by states this afternoon stood: Illinois, 650; Indiana, 99; Tennessee, 34; Missouri, 22; Kentucky, 18. A careful reecheck of casualty figures in the five states where Wednesday's tornado tore out its path of destruction today showed 817 dead, approximately 3000 injured, more or less seriously, and 10,000 homeless. These tabulations of horror were compiled by International News Service from Red Cross reports and the figures of couriers sent thru the devastated area and are believed to be as accurate as it is possible to obtain from the maze of destruction which the storm wrought. The totals divided the dead by states as: Illinois, 650; Indiana, 103; Tennessee, 34; Missouri, 22; and Kentucky, 8. The Illinois figures include 489 known dead and allow for an additional 161 victims which the Red Cross officials believe will be added to the total before nightfall. Property damage in the five states it was estimated today will run close to $200,000,000. Official "known dead" figures, consisting of bodies recovered, issued by the Red Cross at 8 am. today gave the following totals: West Frankfort, 114; Bush, 11; Murphysboro, 125; Desoto, 110; Gorham, 35; Parrish, 30; McLeansboro, 18; Loxan, 15; Enfield, 13; Hurst, 5; Thompsonville, 8; Carroll, 3; Crowley, 2. But restoration of telephone and telegraph facilities into much devastated areas gave further evidence today of organization and team among relief workers. However, facilities were meagre and no one was allowed to come longer than five minutes. Geographic communication was limited. Benton, situated almost midway between Murphysboro and West Frankfort, but far enough north to escape storm, was nucleus of reef work. Telephone reports from Murphysboro shortly before 10 o'clock gave official dead at 202 with about 20 missing. This was increase of about 75 over last night's floods. More than 30 of this 75 died in injuries while wreckage were forth other bodies. Further accurate death figures from West Frankfort, placed the number of recovered bodies at 114, with estimates death total might possibly reach 150. At later hour today practically all 200 missing had been accounted for. Burial of both Murphysboro and West Frankfort dead will be on a wholesale scale this afternoon. However, at both places throut out morning, constant stream of burial accessions made way to four cemeteries. One hundred mine works at West Frankfort were set to work this morning digging graves. The plans had been made for any collective burials, although in instances where entire families were buried out, all will be placed in one cave. Two carloads of modest coffins were being unloaded and fast as they could be distributed, funerals were ordered. The burial from smaller towns, including Gorham, Parrish, McLeanaro, Logan and Enfield, brought information that all were laying their dead. In Murphysboro and West Frankfort, funeral services were held at cemeteries. Garages, churches and all standing shelters are being utilized as morgues. And in every stricken community pent up grief—grief that had been choked back thru the hours toll and rescue work—poured with from hundreds of broken ruins. Spiritless mothers and others sobbed and brooded at in-4Continued on Page Two.

Four hundred and twenty-three bodies have been recovered early today from the ruins of what were once southern Illinois towns.

The casualty record of Wednesday's tornado, revised by rescue work carried on by torchlight thru second night of terror, this morning stood at 817 dead and approximately 3000 injured. To those may be added at least 10,000 homeless. Of dead most by far were killed in So. Illinois, where 650 was placed as total. In Indiana 175 were killed. Missouri lost 31.
