Subsidence Report Warns of Quake Risk in Harbor
A subsidence expert says more underground quakes are likely in the oil rich harbor area but the damage can be mitigated by a unit plan and water injection to prevent sand and shale compaction. He warns that without pressure maintenance the ultimate subsidence could reach 43 feet by 1977, or 38 feet by 1973 if only upper zones compact.

Freighter Sinks After Ramming Dredge in Coos Bay Channel
In Coos Bay Oregon a 268 foot Army dredge sank after being rammed by the Norseiren freighter Thorshall. Three dredge crewmen died, one is missing, six injured. Skipper Captain Carl Til of San Francisco described the moment as the Thorshall veered and failed to answer helm. The Thorshall’s pilot S A Axelson reported the freighter could not be steered and full reverse could not stop it. The Viking figurehead tore into the dredge, blocking passageways as crew members searched for exits. The incident closed the channel as rescuers worked through the night with the dredge’s casualties confirmed.

The measure allows about 70 000 aliens to enter but omits reforms he urged, including Hungarian refugees status and quotas based on the 1950 census. He urged Congress to pursue broader reforms when they reconvene in January.
