Spencer Survivors i
Have Amputations
KODIAK, </P)—Six of 10 per
sons who survived five days and
nights on an icy ledge opposite
Kodiak Island after the cannery
tender Spencer grounded New
Year’s Eve have undergone ampu
tations as a result of exposure,
physicians reported yesterday.
Five of the men have lost both
feet; and Capt. Axel Carlson lost
part of one foot, doctors said.
Calvin Skonberg, 7-year-old
nephew of the four brothers, may
lose a big toe.
The two women aboard the
ship, Miss Alva Skonberg and
Mrs. Alice Skonberg, have recov
ered, and another man, Jacob Os
bekoff, also has been discharged
from the hospital.
The party was enroute to Kodi
ak where Miss Skonberg was to
have married Capt. Carlson.
AFL To Freeze
Out Russians
MIAMI. Fla., UP)—'The AFL ex
ecutive council gave every indi
cation yesterday it meant to take
advantage of anti-Soviet acitvity
around the world by setting up a
rival labor organization to freeze
out the Russians.
The Soviet trade unions are
members of the World Federation
of Trade Unions, in which the CT )
also is a participant along with
representatives of labor groups in
a score of other nations. The At L
would never join, asserting the
WFTU is “communist dominated”
because of overwhelming num
bers.
A three-man committee within
the council is working on a new
policy statement which might go
so far as to scuttle the AFL’s tra
ditional opposition to universal
military training,“and reverse its
historic stand on the theory that
U. S. youth must be drilled for de
fense. The committee plans to re
port today.
