Train Swnys in Quake
Los ANGELES. June 30 (AP).—
An eyewitness account of the Santa
Barbara earthquake was brought to
Los Aiigeles today by Dr. Frederick
Vining Fisher, lecturer for the Los
Angeles Chamber of Commerce, who
was ahead a Southern Pacific train
passing through the city when the
temblor occurred.
"We were just pulling out of Santa
Barbara. for Los Angeles when our
train began to swing sharply "from
side to side." he said. “it felt as
though we had jumped the track.
"in a moment the shaking became
worse. and it seemed that the train
would go over on its side. The engin-
neer applied the brakes. I looked out
the dining car window and saw trees
shaking. houses moving. chimneys
falling and people running from
their homes.
“As soon as the worst of the
shocks had stopped the train get un-
der way and we had traveled as far_
as Summerland. about seven miles
front Santa Barbara. when another
shock toppled a huge oil tank onto
the track in front of the train.
“After this was removed and the
train continued we found in every
pass the deep cut evidences of the
quake. We twice narrowly missed
being buried by slides."

The final Judgment as to the vir-
tue of the Ruhr occupation must be
written. not in the light of economic
returns as to many critics are prone
to do. but rather of preservation of
the rights of the allies. At the time
it was thebest course of action that
could be pursued, Events since then
have changed the situation coms
pletely. In view of the commitmnts
made by both sides at the London
Conference. the occupation is no
longer justified as France herself
freely admits. provided always that
Germany keeps her pledges to the
best of her aoility. That the time has
arrived when France can withdraw
doubtless is as gratifying to her as
it is to Germany. it has cost~a great
deal to maintain the occupation. And
while Germany ll expected to pay
the bills, her payments on this ac-
count diminish to that extent the re-
sources she has to meet reparations.

its baseball very seriously again. Al-

forged suddenly to the front. there
were many misgivings. It was all too
good to be true: it couldn't last. But
it did and Washington went on to its
first rennant and first world series

ferment and days ago all- of the
seats for Sunday’s game with .the
Athletics had been sold out. ..
There is quite a psychological
change in the atmosphere this year.
Last year Washingtonians felt that
the entire country was rooting for
them: rooting for Walter Johnson to
get in a world series after 17 years
of patient toiling and waiting. The
glory came and all the. nation seemed
to rejoice." .
This year Washingtonians are be-
ginning to feel there is a “pull"
away from them: that public sentl.
