possibly taking the strain off the

from Butte, and portends greater or
lesser movements in the future.
Economic Aspeots Interest
"Besides this scientific point, there
is also great interest In the economic
aspects whether, if nature is still
building, It would be necessary to
strengthen buildings against damage
in the future. Now geologists will try
to learn just what this fault portends,
although ft Is, of course, impossible
to sny when further disturbances
might occcur or what the intensity
might be."
Prof. Hodge said the earthquake
occurred In a region which, bo fur as
history shows, has been comparative
ly free of disturbances.
He said Walla Walla and Milton
Freewater felt the earthquake par

on alluviul deposits left by the rivers
flowing westward from the Blue
