Liille Hope Held For 22 Still Missing

By Tom Chase

MIAMI, 1713.. J no 8 - (AP) - Thirty-scven su ivors of a twin- engined plane which.plungcd into the Atlantic were safe tonight aboard a U. S. Navy destroyer.

The bodies of six others were recovered. Little hope was held that the remaining 22 occupants would be found alive.

Pilot Joseph Halsey. co-pilot William Holleran and the steward were among those rescued from the plane. owned by Westair Com- pany of Seattle.

10 Hours In Water

The 37 were picked up by the destroyer Saufley nearly 10 hours after the plane crashed into the

Atlantic. about 275 miles east northeast of Miami. with 62 Puerto Rican migrant workers

and three crew members aboard.

The pilot of a navy plane in the search area got in touch with Hal- sey aboard the destroyer and quot- ed him as saying he was "doubt- ful that any other survivors would be picked up."

Halsey said that "none of the passengers understand English and so couldn't understand ditching instructions."

All survivors were reported "ln good condition."

Halsey said that one engine of the converted C-40 cargo-type plane "unexpectedly failed due to mechanical trouble and the sec- ond engine then began to lose oil prcsure. causing failure."

Other searchers also were doubtful tonight that other pau- engcrs would be found alive.

The Saufley radioed Coast Guard headquarters in Miami that only two life jackets were found dur- lng a thorough search, extending as far as the Windward and Lee- ward Islands.

Seas were reported choppy and "prospects of further recoveries are doubtful." the destroyer ad- vised, adding that according to present plans she probably would disembark survivors at Charles- ton. S. C.

To Investigate

In Washington. Government avi-

ation experts moved swiftly to investigate the crash. The plane plunged into the sea

while on route from San Juan. Puerto Rico. to Wilmington. N.C.

The migratory workers aboard were among more.than 5.000 being flown to the United States to help in crop harvests.

Irving H. Mansfield of Millville. N. J., treasurer of Westair Com- pany, said "we had plane-loads yesterday going both to Michigan and New Jersey for agricultural harvests. but it is my understand- ing this group was going to Michi- Sam"

Passed inspection

RcporLs from San Juan said the present C-46 passed inspection satisfactorily before taking off yesterday on its ill-fated flight.

Licui. J. M. Waters of Arapahoe. N.C.. skipper of I Coast Guard plane, told reporters in Jackson- ville. Fla.. that "the survivors were all sitting down in their rafts and seemed to be taking things calmly. One man waved to us."

The Saufley will remain in the arch until it is relieved by the 165-foot Coast Guard cutter Au- rora. steaming toward the search area from Savannah. Ga.

No passenger list was immedi- ately available and the name of the steward was not announced.

With remarkable restraint, the Communists issued a mild state- ment, asking "all patriots" to Join in resisting this "suppression". But the party called fbr no specific aci- tion.

m'rAvwa, June 0 -(CPI ..vet- eraris Minister Gregg said todgy in the commons he believes that more and more employers are be. girming to realize that veterans of the First World War "can give Just as valuable service today as they could have given 2) or 25 years ago.”

"Valuable work is going on from day to day in seeking employment and breaking down the resistance of employers to putting these older men to work." said Mr. Gregg.

lie spoke during continued study of the estimates of his depart- ment.

During the last two years, the National Employment Service. with the help of the veterans Depart- ment and other agencies. found 160,000 jobs for older veterans. They were not permanent Jobs and the figure represented one. two or three jobs for the same man.

Labor Minister Mitchell said the National Employment Service has put special emphasis on the place-

Parllsment. ,

of 716 In the

ment of returned soldiers and hniidica-pped people.

"I think we may well be proud of the people employed in the em- ployment service of Canada." said Mr Mitchell.

To Purchase stores

Members adopted a bill estab- lishing a 54.0001!) capital fund for the purchase of stores for the Transport Department. Transport Minister Chevrler accepted an Op- position suggestion that the figure be out from 5.000.000 to 54.000.000-

Mr. Chevrler also agreed to 0p- posltlnn requests that ratification of an international meteorological treaty sighed by Canada in 1941 be delayed pending study of the document by the External Affairs Committee.

In the veterans debate. Mr. (M& said his department plane a " d -”' advertising campaign this year to encourage the em- ployment of older veterans.

He paid tribute to the Corps of Oommlrslonaires and to the Board of Governors which make the Corps a success. The Corps pro- vided a place of service for men who had maintained their integ- rity, discipline and trustworthiness but who had no special skill and perhaps were not too strong physically.

No Accommodation

He told Howard Green (PG- Vancouver-Qusdra) that the Vet.- erans Department was not able to provide for the hospitalisation of the widows of veterans. In veter- ana hospitals, only a limited num- ber of women veterans could be

A second factor miiltatlng in favor of a. good tourist season for the Island, Travel officials said. was the additional volume of pub- licity the Province had been re- CNV4hl-.ln.!IArious ways in the past few months. They added that not 311 Provinces will show an increase

Veterans Affairs Debated In House Of Commons

Green and H. W. I-Ierridge (CCF- Kootenay West). be said this is not the time for the establishment of a parliamentary committee on veterans affairs.

Mr. Green complained that medals issued to veterans of the last war did not have enscribed the names of those who had won them. This at least could have been done in the case of medals sent to next-of-kin of those who died overseas.

IVE. Gregg said 3.500.000 medals had been sent out and it had been estimated it would have taken an- other thrce years to have them stamped or engraved with individ- ual names. As for next-of-kin. he regretted that it had not been done in their case and said the de- partment was studying the possi- bility of "sending out something appropriate that could be attached to the medals."
