Avexzano, via Rome, Jan. 20.—
The sufferings of the survivors in
the earthquake districts around
Avezzano have been aggravated by a
sudden change in the weather. Bit-
ter cold and a heavy snowfall have
sticceeded the brightness and dry-
ness of the previous days.
The snow, which b«*gan to fall
early Tuesday afternoon, penetrated
ir.to the hastily constructed wooden
huts which shelter all too few of
the may thousands of homeless and
added greatly to the discomfort
taat prevailed. Hundred* are com-
pelled to spend the night In the
open air. Fortunately, th® relief
work appears to be well organized
and more abundant, so that practi-
cally all of the larger places that
have been dtvastated are receiving
attention.
Living persons stilt are being dug
out of the mins, it seems surpris-
ing that more vigorous efforts are
not being made to extricate scores
of others who are enduring the hor-
rors of a lingering death.
Between Pesctna. San Benedetto
and Gloja-De-Marsi. great cocks
and depressions are vtsIM,. in the
roads anrl fields. This condition is
also responsible for the fact that
Gioja. the richest town ia the dis-
trict, suffered more severely than
any other place destroyed by the
earthquake. Only about one-fifth
of the population was saved; 704)
cut of 3,ti'S2.q Two women were
taken alive from the rtuns there
touay. The destruction of all build-
ings in the town is even more com-
plete than in Avezzano for onty a
single wall in the place is standing
above the height of the first floor.
Many women were at mass in
Gtorja when .the church fvIYTn but
onty the priest escaped. Four women
were dug out alive later. Five hun-
dred soldiers arrived Stmday and
are guarding the property in the
ruins, which is more valuable 4han
at other places.

Rome, Jan. 20. Next to Avez-
zano. one of the place** to suffer
most from the earthquake was Dr-
tucchio, a few miles from Gio)a-De-
Mafsi, where less than 100 people
were saved out of a population of
2,500. In the church, which was a
large edifice, there were between
300 and 400 persons when the
earthquake came. The priest and
the entire congregation were im-
prisoned under the ruins as the
whole building suddenly collapsed.
Only four women since have been
taken out alive.
Collarmele, 3,000 feet tip in the
mountains, is another of those
towns in this part of Italy from
which many persons had emigrated
to America. Here, a thousand Iver-
sons out of a population of 1.600
were killed. The priest tn this
town perished, white conducting
services At the altar, atyj,' the wor-
shippers, chiefly women and chil-
dren, died with him. The church is
in ruin*, but two statues of saints
are stilling standing uninjured. The
survivors at Collarmele are shelter-
ed in the railway station.
Some signs of returning life al-
ready are loginning to be visible in

GOVERNOR J. E. FERGUSON’S FIRST
MESSAGE TO TEXAS LEGISLATURE
Aasovintrti pre** Dispatch
Austin, Jan. 20.—Governor James
E. Ferguson's first .message to the
Texas legislature was short. It
was written in breezy language.
Mostly it stated principles, rather
than detail oi proposed laws. It
did not specifically mention repeat
of the insurance laws.
The more Important recommenda-
tions were:
Redeeming of pledges and planks
of the El Paso platform.
Restricting land rents t*> one
fourth the value of cotton raised and
one third the value of grain.
Prohibit combines to fix arbi-
trary prices for farm products.
Protect laboring men, and especi-
ally children who work.
Let the foreign investor know
he is ‘‘welcome" in Texas.
New buildings for the ir.sane.
Liberal appropriations for4 edu-
cation, but especially for rural edu-
cation.
Reasonable compulsory educa-
tion law."
Ore central board of control of
six members for the A, & M. Col-
lege'and Texas University.
Printing every school book in
Texas as soon as possible.
Trying to solve the penitentiary
trouble by using convicts to build
highways.
. Equalization of work of district
courts and abolishing all term* of
court.
Exempt cetton and woolen fac-
tories from taxation.
Abolish fee system.
Protect live stock industry.
Protect’ forest reserves.
More practical work by fartt ex;
pertment stations.
pocket full of money."
People should ask themselves,'
says the message, "Have i lived:
within my means?" Tl»ea-4i—adds: i
"We must start again and start I
right. No law can be passed that
will provide against wastefuL ex-!
travagance. ‘The public must sooner^
or later learn that the government j
is not an, apple tree whose fruits
can be plumced at will ami
plied by nature."
The land rent recommendation
reads: "You should pass a law re-
.‘tricting land rents -in Texas, and
declaring ail contracts void where-
by the tenant iS required to pay a
rent exceeding in value one-fourth
the cotton raised and one third of
the value of the grain raised, where
as who never get a chance to go to
school, Hie message says, contrast
fug this with the fact that the legis-
lature is asked to appropriate "over
1525.00 pci: student for the benefit
of those fortunate enough to be able
to go to the A. & M. College and
the University. You can begin to
see there is danger of somebody
going hog wild about higher educa-
resup-j tion."
"The penitentiary system" says
the message "is the cancer car-
1 btincle that is about to' develop to
alarming proportions. It is a car-
buncle because when you try to do
something with it you hit a sore
spot on some politician's neck."
f in suggesting readjustment of

excepting of course,where the crops
are made on what is known as tfc»
