He placed absolute confidence in the soundness of the new currency now being pumped into iihe chen- nels of money exchange. "This curmlcy," he emphasized, “is not not currency. It is is- sued oniy on adequate security-—- and every good bank has an abun- dance of such security.” Referring to the concern expres- sed in some places over the state banks outside the Federal Reserve system, he usid: “These banks can and will re- ceive assistance’ from member banks, and from the Rrconstrln- tion Finance Corporation. Those state banks are following the sane course as the national banks e!- cept that they get their ilcenes to rsume business from the stei‘ authorities. and these authoritins have been asked by the Secretary oi the ‘Treasury to pennit thdr good banks to open up on the some schedule as the national banks."

Appointments To Church Offices To Be Made. VATICAN CITY, March 12 - (C. P. Coblw-Pope Pius will voice open and sharp disapproval of King Boris and Queen Giovanna of Bulgaria tomorrow morning, say Vatican Prclates, when he delivers an allocation to the Cardinals in the Holy Year Consistory. The Pontiff, they say, will denounce the Orthodox Baptism of the little Princess Maris. Luisa, born in January. The Consistory is called to cre- ate six new cardinals, among whom is Mgr. Jean Marie Rodrigue Ville- neuve, Archbishop of Quebec, and tn nominate three cardinals to op- en the Holy Doors of three Rome‘ ‘aeslllces Saturday, April 1, at the moment the Pope opens the I-loly Door oi St. Peter's to inaugurate the Holy Year. The Consistory promised to be one of the longest on record, since e. large mass of Ecclesiastical bus- iness hes accumulated since the last consistory in i930. It will begin at, 9.30 a. m., an hour eariier than scheduled. The Pope will speak nearly an hour, delivering an allocation of approximately 0,000 words in dis- cussing the world situation. In addition to nominating the six new Cardinals and naming of the three to open the Holy Doors, the consistcry will approve the elevation of Cardinals sincero and Cerettl to cardinal Bishops and Cardinal Mari to Cardinal Priest, along with three oanonizations and a ‘number of appointments of Bishops and Archbishops. The Prciatcs said this evening that the Pope would present to the Cohslstory about 20 nominations for new bishops. It also was ex- pected 800 nominations which have been made since 1930 would be presented for confirmation. The Pops, Preietes believe, will recall Boris and Giovanna‘: verbal and written promise to him that all their children were to be bap- tized Roman Catholics, including the heir to the throne. I-Ie will re- mind them that it was on this promise that he granted perlnis- sion for the Catholic Princess Gio- vanna to rmrry the Orthodox King Boris in e Catholic wedding ser- vice.

(Canadian Press) ST. JOHNS, Nfid, March 12.- Cold and blustery weather with high west winds held the Coachmarfs , Cove Sealers, oil Western Island to- day. The 12 who set out from the rmalnland on Friday morning, only ‘Ito be carried seaward by a. wind- driven iccprlck, were bciicvcd safe, but it was recognized ihnr. confir- mation and furtllcr details must wait until weather conditions were ,such that they_could make their nvay either to Horse Island, two ‘miles to the eastward, or to the mainland, 20 miles South. Tllc only evidence on which the iresidents of Horse Island based the belief the seal hunters were safe, was a fire sighted on Western Island yesterday and today. At least some of the 12, it was certain, had roach- ed shore there, and as they carried food sufficient for three days, anxi- ety was somewhat nilnycd. Western Island is wooded and of considerable size, and although un- inhabited, affords alllplc means of shelter. The sealers, however, were unable to communicate with Horse Island on the mainland. It was presumed they had bccll carried close to West- orn Island by the drifting iioe, and had reached the land there in the two small boats in which they set out to hunt pelts Friday. The six steamers which are now in the northern iccficlds in search of seals have been informed oi the occurrence, but since they have been further advised tilat the missing with all those who have sustained men mun“; 1mm l; gs jmpfobgblfl bereavement or injury R5 the fc- they would niicnlpt to force their way into White my unless rescue LOS ANGELES, March l2.-(A.

Friday, which wrought i the greatest damage. The continuing shocks did little dflmflge except to shake down more bricks, glass and masonry, but they kept the populace on edge. Long Beach, centre of the great- est destruction, discontlnued the use of city ‘water because authorities suspected sewage from broken pipes might have seeped into the water mains where breakage might have occurred. Precautions against typhoid and smallpox were taken immediately. - All waters drunk in the ruined area had to be boiled, and there was no gas to furnish heat, the supply having been cut off to prevent fires. Fires were kindled in yards and oth- cr open places and water was boiled in primitive fashion. FEAR FOR LIVES A great portion of Long Beach's 140,000 residents infused to return to their homes, fearing for their lives. They stuck to the open spaces, tenting where they could, but many sleeping with only a blan- ket for shelter. The weather was warm, however. Bread lines stretched for blocks in the city park and food camps elsewhere passed out emergency ra- tions. Church services were held in the open throughout the area of great- est destruction, which extended from Huntington Park, just south oi the Los Angeics down town section, to the ocean shore at Long Beach, a stretch of some 20 miles.- SHOCKS CHANGE DIRECTION A peculiarity of the later shocks was their change in direction of movement. Friday night, during the heaviest tremors, those lying in beds running East and West said they were roiled sidcwlse, sometimes via- ' lently. Last night the motion seem- ingly chongcd, with sleepers lying east to west being changed edge- wise. Casualty and damage figures rc- mained generally unchanged, al- though thc Long Bench figures were subject to alteration. Tile aggregate toil still stood at approximately 130 dead, 5,000 injured, 4,000 of these cases being first aid matters, and property damage roughly $50,000,- 000. 130 DEAD-SAW) INJURED A force of inspectors today made a survey of all school buildings in Los Angclcs county to determine the extent of the earthquake ‘amagc. Preliminary estimates indicated 50,- 000 pupils of the 280,000 in thc county's scllool system would have to remain away from classes until the damage is repaired. Archie R. Clifton, county Super- intendent, said only those county ' star, of Winnipeg, had been includ- 8 PAGES schools where there was damage or l where exists the suspicion of dem- 388. would be closed. The 1'05 Allkeles city schools will remain closed all week, pending a complete checkup. An early survey showed 142 school buildings wurc damaged. FIVE CANADIAN VICTIMS At least live Canadians lost their lives when death and destruction were spread through Southern Cai- ifomia by the disastrous earthquake oi late Friday night and recurrent shocks throughout Saturday. Since the first of the shocks that resulted in a known death toll of 130 persons and property damage or $50,000,000 or morn struck the Pa- cific coast, Canadians from the At- lantic to the. Pacific deluged press agencies and newspaper offices and flooded telegraph and telephone complnics with frantic enquiries concerning the safety o.’ Thousands of their kinsmcn, either resident or visiting in the disaster-stricken zone, Up to Sunday night the following Canadians were known to be among the dead: ' _ Earl Adamson, formerly of Sask- atoon; Mrs, Frank Boil, formerly of Edmonton; Dr. Ashley Firkin, for- merly of Edmonton; John Young, formerly of Piympton township, near Samia; Captain Charles Towns, for- mcrly of Hamilton.
