I Bakersfield was still shaking Fri day, 11 days after the big earth quake that took a toll of 14 lives in Southern California. There were two more tremors Friday, but only light ones and nothing to compare with the ori ginal shock July 21 or some of the stronger aftershocks. There have been settling shocks almost daily since the original one. Residents have not become blase about the continuing tremors but some sporting souls are laying bets on tne magnitude of future after shocks. Damage continued to mount in ihe Keen County area. The Kern General Hospital was further hit Thursday. Hospital authorities fur ther estimat?d damage at 5 mil lions. A nine-foot parapet was loos ened at the county jail. The city hall at Shafter was condemned. The July 21 quake claimed its 14th victim with the death of Mrs. L'ydia Cline, 88, of Long Beach. She died of a brok?n left hip suffered when she fell during the quake. Heavily damaged railroad tun nels and trackage in the Tehacha pi mountain area was inspected by D. J. Russell, presid?nt of the Southern Pacific railroad and Fred E. Gurley, president of the Santa f'e railroad.

Vo Presidential Campaign Promises To Be Devoid Of Mud, Wild Charges By BRUCE BIOSSAT General Eisenhower and Governor Stevenson, the major party presidential nominees, are both essentially men of de cent character and hijrh motive. May we therefore look for ward to a campaitrn free of mud slinging and wild charges? Porhani we could if the cam-1 paign were to be left wholly to the nominees themselves. ii ii. i .... it-- huctintfc i will not be alone on the hustings.! Each will have a host ot tree- swinging helpers who will feel no particular compulsion to ooserve the political niceties. The slugging may be severe. Many will say that the nominees are handicapped not alone by their gentlemanly tendencies but by their closeness on many is suesespecially in foreign affairs. Both are moderate middle-of-the-road men. If you scan their public utterances carefully, you will find amazing similarity at many points. Despite these basic parallels, however, a marked difference in emphasis is inevitable in the coming campaign. Stevenson per force will have to defend the Dem ocratic record and extol its pro gram. Eisenhower will be free to assail those things. Right here is the critical area for the Republicans. Many non party members feel 20 years is more than long enough for one party to hold power. Many are disturbed over one phase or an other of Democratic rule conduct of the Korean war, corruption in Washington, failure to halt infla tion, and so on. These people want to hear the Democrats criticized. But they want more. They want to know what positive, constructive ideas the Republicans have for doing the job better. Mere denunciation is not enough to attract legions of wavering voters. This outcome Eisen..ower vs. Stevenson may not make for a sharp cleavage on issues and men as some observers feel we should have. However, that may be, the largest part of the voting popu lace, as it is read by politicians whose business it is to judge ac curately, wants the kind of result Chicago produced. Stevenson, of course, begins with the advantage of a great basic Democratic strength among the electorate. His task will be to convince the big, shifting mass of unsettled voters in ' the middle range that they have nothing to gain by drifting into the Republi can zone. He is unlikely to accom plish this if he suggests the Demo cratic administration has been un marrcd by corruption and error.
