The search for Clara, was begun
last week following the finding of
her two-year old child on the
roadway, on the east side of Bel

critical condition, and would
probably have frozen to death in
another hour. It was turned over

During the search, by the mili-,
tary authorities, of every hut and
building on the base, they dis
covered two other Eskimo women
who had been smuggled onto the
Base. They are now in the city
jail for further questioning.
