Two Survivors Reported from 14 Aboard

OOMOX. B. C., Nov. 24 - (GP) .. An R. C. A. 1''. Lancaster bomber with 14 aboard crashed and burn- ed at dusk tonight at the edge of Comox Airport on the east coastiof Vancouver island.

The E. C. A. F. at Vancouver at first reported all 14 were killed but an ambulance crew which sped to the scene said three men were taken out alive, including the pilot and co-pilot.

The Comox R.C.A.l". hospital later reported only two men sur- vived. indicating the third man died en route to hospital.

The hospital said the pilot and co-pilot were expected to live. They were not identified immediately.

The bomber, which normally car. rles a. crew of seven, was on its final approach to the runway when it suddenlv dropped into brush a quarter-mile from the field and caught fire. .

R.C.M.P. said the cloud ceiling was low over the field as the four- engined Lancaster prepared to land.

The plane took off from sea Is- land air base at Vancouver. It crashed just before 5 P. M. P. S. T. after the 90-mile run northwest of Vancouver.

There was no immediate ex- plonotion for the crash. It was pos- sible the bomber "stalled" on its final approach and spun earth- ward. A plane would be low at that point. giving it practically no chance to recover.

Comox was reopened this summer as a bomber training base.

Reached by telephone on his ar- rival back from the scene. the com- manding officer declined to give any details of the accident or the number killed. .

On Supply Run

The plane was 'on a supply run to Comox from Vancouver. Be- sides the crew of five. it carried new personnel for the base.

Nearly three hours after the crash. ground crews were still scorching the brush for bodies.

"It's cold and dark out there and the going is slow," one of- ficer said.

The Weather Office said that

Though cloud was as low as 500 feet at the time of the crash. visibility was good.

There was no explosion when the plane'hlt. One officer said it was "pretty well intact" after the crash but then burst into flames.

TORONTO. Nov. 24 -(CP)- A south Korean representative to the United Nations said today his country faces the prospect of widespread starvation during the coming year.

In an address prepared for de- livery at a luncheon meeting of the Central council of the Canadian Red Cross society. Col. Ben C. Limb. head of the south Korean mission to the UN. appealed for greater efforts by Canadian relief agencies on behalf of Korean war victims.

He said 1.000.000 tons of rice and other grains must as lmpoma during the next year to war off famine. lo far there has been no sign of it forthcoming, he said. Any

"Regardless of any change in US. government policy, they are going to be a great potential mar- ket for Canadian food, and the long term agricultural outlook is very good, particularly in meat and dairy products," stated Mr. W. R. Carroll, vice-president and general manager of Canada Pack- ers. Ltd., in addressing the Char- lottetown Rotary Club yesterday.

Mr. Carroll said this potential was indicated by the tremendous increase in beef consumption in Canada at lower prices since mid- summer, which took place without any decrease in pork and poultry consumption.

"But farming will become more of a business and less of a. way of life", he warned: "and efficient. well-financed, sound farm opera- tors will increase their advantage rapidly over less efficient mar- ginal farmers.

Radar equipment broke down west of Father Point in the St. Lawrence River when the ship's crew was putting up bunting.

River pilots Leon Poulioi. and Lionel. St. Pierre said they "smelled" their way through the fog.

li.(2.A.F. my Try Out New British. Plane

OTTAWA, Nov. 24 --(OP) -The R. C. A. F. searching for a speedy new aircraft to boost its anti-sub- marine air power, may find the answer in Britain's Britannia. a new and powerful '10-ion iturbo- prop aircraft.

Officials said today that steam of Canadian experts now is in Eng- land to evaluate the Britannia and compare it with similar United States aircraft as possible replace- ments for the air force's Second world War Lancastera.

No final decision on a replace- ment choice is expected untilearly 1953. but if the Britannia wins over her American competitors. it will mean new production in Canada.

Officials said that Canadair Ltd., of Montreal, Canada's biggest air- craft company. likely will get the production contract.

But since canadair currently is busy producing the F-06 sabre jet as well as a number of other air- craft. production of the new plane likely will be elsewhere than at Montreal.

Canadair currently is negotiating to take over the Fleet A rcraft Company at Fort Erie, Ont.. poa- libly on a rental basil. If the deal goes through part of Cl.nadair's Montreal production may be shift-

to the sort Erie site.

Vishinskcy-Tiives Views In Sudden. Dramatic Move

1!! NORMAN ALTSTEDTEII. Canadian Press Staff Writer

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.. Nov. 24-(CP) - Russia today bluntly rejected India's peace plan for Korea and the United States soft- ened iis objections to the proposal which caused a split between Bri- tain and the U.S.

Foreign Minister Andrei -Vishin- sky of Russia suddenly and dram- atically took over the floor in the political committee of the United Nations General Assembly to sarcasticahy iambast Krishna Me- non...aul.hor of the Indian resolu- tion and confidant of Prime Min- ister Nehru. The Russlan echoed Soviet newspapers in charging that the indian plan follows the Am- erican line on non-forcible re- patriation of war prisoners.

Breach Partially Ilealed

The Anglo -American breach which flared at the week-end ap- peared partially healed at least by State Secretary Dean Acheson of the U.S. who told the committee later in conciliatory tones that he is in agreement with the spirit of the Indian resolution although the US. has objections to some of its details. Britain and Canada have been strong supporters of the plan with or without amendments.

Acheson pledged that if the pro- posal is amended further the U.S. will support it and will try to carry it forward at Panmunjom if the assembly passes it. How- ever, the Indian delegation re- vealed that the changes it intro- iluced Sunday are as far as it will go in bringing the resolution into line with US. views.

Top priority for the Indian re- solution was urged immediately after Acheson's address by Nas- rollah Entezam of Iran. a former Assembly president. Such a move would have the committee vote on the Indian resolution ahead of the 21-power proposal drafted by the U.S. which calls for en- dorsement of actions by the UN negotiators at Panmunjom, and re- solutions submitted by Mexico and Peru. A vote is expected at the end of the week.

Hopes Blasted

Acheson noted that hopes for peace in Korea were blasted at least momentarily by Vishinsky's tough speech but the American insisted the committee must push forward in seeking the best con- ditions and methods for an armis- tlce.

While hopes of many delegates were dimmed by the Soviet re- jection, the Indian delegation con- tinued to emphasize it believes the Chlense Communists are the key to cease-fire despite what Rus- sia might say.
