GROWING CITY OSAKA (A't This city, second in size only to Tokyo, now has a population of 4.509,298, an in crease of 650,000 since the 1950 census, a recent survey shows, Censor Holds up Versailles Film NEW YORK (UP) A French historical-spectacular motion pic ture, "Versailles," produced with the cooperation of the French Min istry of National Education, has been impounded by U.S. Customs for being just a shade too educa tional about the anatomV of an 18th century sculptor's model, it was disclosed today. The film's importer said he had telegraphed Secretary - of State John Foster Dulles and Treasury charge of customs, urging them to admit the film to avoid an "inter national incident." The movie, said to be the most expensive ever produced in Eu rope starring some of the biggest European movie stars and a couple of Americans, Claudctte Colbert and Orson Welles, covers 300 years of French history and pays 20 per cent of its profits to the French government toward restoration of the Palace of ver sailles. according to Jean Gold wurm, president of Times Film Corp. A customs official said Gold wurm could undoubtedly have his film by agreeing to cut one brief scene in which a masked woman is disrobed to the waist at "some king's masquerade ball" Jo see if she can be matchd to a piece of statuary. one of the most important ever recorded in the United States," Prof. David Slemmons, University of Nevada earthquake expert said. By this, he said, he means in terms of ground displacement. Slemmons Is among the scien tists, who have converged on Dix ie Valley to study the effects of the quake. He flew over the area some 50 miles east of Fallon mapping the gaping scars caused by newly-opened faults. One slash extends for 26 mites Slemmons found part of a new fault where one side is 20 feet low er than on the other side. He called this possibly one of the greatest vertical shillings of earth ever re corded in the United States. The area is sparsely settled, and or all its fury the quake brought no casualties. By comparison, the San Fran Cisco quake of 1906 caused only a three-foot vertical displacement yet killed some 700 people. The valley is about twice the size of Manhattan Island. Some ranch' ers graze cattle here, but there are no settlements for miles. About six families live in the valley dur ing the summer, but at the time of the quake only a few ranchers were in the area. They were not injured. 'Had the quake occurred in a populated area." Slemmons said. hesitate to think of the death and destruction it would have caused."
