HARTLEY ACT BY APRIL
WASHINGTON, <>P) — Republi
can Senator Morse (Ore.) Satur
l day proposed an April target date
for a Senate vote on repeal of the
Taft-Hartley law. But Senator Lu
cas (111.) the Democratic leader,
called for a “much faster” pace.
Morse told a reporter he will
ask the Senate labor committee to
day to start hearings this week on
a repeal bill and on restoration
and revision of the old Wagner
act.
Lucas called the Morse time
table too slow, but declined to
name a different date for a Sen

Plane Crash

. feet and other injuries,
i The rescuers,' who at first
! thought there were no survivors,
had started to hack their way into
■ the wreckage when they heard a
shout. They found Poumirau hang
ing upside down, unable to unfas
ten his safety belt.
The two survivors were brought
i on by a ski-equipped plane. Re
I turning for bodies, it flipped over
! in landing but its crew was un
hurt. "
The airliner had stopped at Ho
mer, Alaska, on a scheduled flight
and was due at Anchorage at 10:50
p.m. < PST) Thursday. A searching
B-17 from the Tenth Rescue
squadron sighted the wreckage at
4:20 a.m. and shortly before noon
Friday a ground party from Ho
mer reached the scene.
V’hen the rescuers heard Pou
mirau’s cry they sent an appeal
for bars, saws and axes, relaying
the message through a B-17 cruis
ing overhead.
The hospital here at first had a
report Spears was a survivor, but
it was Land who was brought in
for treatment. It was not known
if either of the two had remained
conscious all through the 20-hour
ordeal.
Donald E. Brown, squadron sur
j geon, and a medical technician ac
companied the rescue civw. i; was
Brown who sent back word that
only the two had survived the
crash.
The word that there were sur
vivors came after a ground party
from Homer reached the scene ^
and radioed that all were dea !.
The airline started notifying rela
tives to that effect. Then came the
second report.
ANCHORAGE, ,.-P> - I v >.a
ment was shown today by both
survivors of an Alaska Ai. lines
plane crash in which four others
died Thursday night.
Hospital attendants said the
general condition of the two men
was “better.” They are R. D. Land,
pilot of the ill-fated DC-3 which
smashed into a Kenai peninsula
hillside, and Peter Poumirau, 35,
of San Francisco, a passenger.
When they were brought her * in
a ski-equipped rescue plane,
Land’s condition was described as
“fair” and Poumirau’s “critical.”
Both had frozen feet and other in
juries.
Land, formerly of Los Angeles,
■ihi yesterday that the crash came
without the slightest warning a
few minutes after the takeoff from
Homer, about 150 miles southwest
of Anchorage, the plane’s destina
tion.
“I just don’t know what hap
pened,” he said. ^
