(Refcom, mendationa x for earthquake study in , Jjio United States as a whole similar to the work being done in California, yyere made today by E. Lester Jones, :,dlroctor of the coast and geodetic survey. In his annual report. ' 'Disturbances which In some cases ; cause more or less damago have oc . ciirrod. Jn Jha last two ypars in Can ada near Maine and New York, in 111 iriois, Kentucky, Indiana. Missouri, Montana, Utah, Arizona, Washington, ,!CalIforiiji and. beneath th.e, sea off Jbregon. If the ' scientific, lnvostfga ; tlon being mado for the preparation .of an earthquake map of California i; could be widened the information thus gained could be of practical value to ; nrchttects and engineers. It would be Jiosslble to indicate in this way, Di rector Jones said, places where earth quakes, might be expected and whore "special precautions In order to avoid the danger of catastrophe" wore nec essary. Such knowledge, he added, would be of particular value in deter mining the sites tor groat Sams or oth er reclamation projects. Mr. Jones also reported that the wire-drag survey of the inside steam ' ship routes of southeastern Alaska, bo gun in 1914, would be completed next summer. Deep water channels as far ,wSst as Cajie Spencer already have .been dragged, marking the completion of one of the most Important survey ing projects of the country. Practically all vessels bound to or from Alaska pass through those waters and many in the past have been stranded. Now however, the report stated, "It Is reasonably certain that all pinnacle rocks along these routes have been found and accurately locat ed."

Tho calves will be sold to farmers at actual cost.
