While It is believed in Japan that
earthquakes are caused by a lerse‘
catfish that is imprisoned in the
earth and that struggles to get free.
similarly the mythology of Western
countries has variously ascribed
them to animals and to gods living
in'the erth. The Japanec are large-
ly e seafnlolg people. Their diet 'is
mninteinly rice and fish so that it is
not unnatural that superstition
should give rise to the catfish be-
lief. - ‘

are ascribed to the Deity and are put
forward as a warming to a people to
mend its ways. That was uthe view

Japsn not unnaturally has had its
effect on the character of the Jap-
anese. For all the catfish theory. the
more important earthquakes that
have occurred In that country are
commemorated annuannl with spec-
lnl services at the temples. Scientists
on the other hand. seeking causes
more natural than Dix‘ine. ascribe
those. shakings of the surface of the
earth to what they call "faults" with-
in the earth itself. These fault tin-2s
are being discovered as a result of
earthquakes ad are being chartered
on maps.
"If you study the map of the Purl-
fie." remarked Dr. Chest-9r A. Reeds.
head of the department of ealtb
Physics at the. Museum of Natural
History New York "you will find a
series of ‘and arcs. The islends of
Japan form one arc. the Phllllppines
another. so natra and Java a third.
and If you examine the mountain
ranges of Asia you will see still other
arcs. of whi’ch the Himalayas are a
notable example.
“Fault lines correspolld with these
arcs and In the course. 0 ftime gigan-
tic displacemenls within the earth
sling these faults have created these
Islands and mountain ranges. Place
an open book before you. Now. wizh
the fingers o nihe. edge. are page bear
inward. You will find that the pace,
rumples up at the seam. And broad-
ly speaking that is what happens
when a displacement occurs within
the earth.
“Upon the extent and distance or
this displacement depends the in-
tensity o "its movement on the crust
of the earth. Mos earthquakes do
no surface damage. Many. on the
other band. do damage of such a re-
tui'e that the fault line can be dis-
tinctly traced. Sometimes an 0pm
ditch is left. the lines of a railroad
are bent at right angles to the fault
the flmures o fthe earth fill up with
water and lakes are formed. Some-
times the land is raised perpendicu-
larly to a height. that may be per-
beps a few Incheseor twenty fest.’
"It is interesting to note that the
semen of intense scsmIc probability
are on the edge of deep sea areas. A
map showing soundings shows that
east of the Japanese are the see. runs
in pl es to a depth of 27.000 feet.
Similarly west of the'Andcen range
the see goes to tremendous repihs.
Here there are fault lines that cause.
a frequency of earthquakes in these
regions. ' ’
With such conditions prevailing
in Japan it is only natural that they
would try to build earthquake-proof
houses For the most part the dwell-
ings In Japan are made of bamboo.
frequently the roofs are of tile. but
sometimes they are of thatch. The
bamboo house is capable to a. great
extent of absorbing the earth shock.
but the heavy tiles fall in when se-
verely shaken. Buildings of brick
and stone fell easily when shaken
and the Japanese are turning to re-
inforced concrete as the beat ma-
terial to meet their problem. And
it is such it problem that is induc-
ing students of engineering and
architecture to take , up special
