EARTH'S SHIFTING AXIS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM
Seismograph Registrations Have Indicated Earthquake in Bed of Pacific

San Francisco, March 13 (United
Press).—Several weeks ago, when
seismographs throughout the U.S.
recorded an earthquake terrible
anomaly, an earthquake beneath
the bed of the Pacific ocean, a European
scientist started the public by
announcing the earthquake had been
caused by the earth shifting its axis.
If anyone feels any deep concern over the earth's aliment, however, he can perhaps be reassured by the statement of Dr. W, W. Campbell, director of Lick Observatory, Mount Hamilton, California.
DC Campbell declares that the earth undoubtedly did shift its axis that those in no cause for concern are to blame it is habitually shifting in this manner.
"Students of seismology have actually found that the greatest recorded earthquakes in the past 40 years have occurred when the position of the earth's axis was shifting more rapidly, or had reached a plateau. Among the complicating factors probably belong the influence of volcanic forces and varying attractions of the sun and moon upon the earth's materials, the alternate elevation and depression of the ocean's surface, such as tidal tecto. Satellite decisions must be made before earthquakes can be traced with confidence to their actual causes.
"We do not know positively that there is any connection between such shifts of the earth's axis and earth quake, but the connection it strong
"Great earthquakes whose origin lie on land nearly always declare their location by visible disturbances in the surface strata.
"Before we can definitely locate the recent heavy ash somewhere under the bed of the Pacific, we must wait until records are adainable from Japan, Australia and other countries—that's hard," she said. The diarographs of this country were thrown off the charts by the heavy indication of earth movement."
