The U. S. - weather r bureau in
Milwaukee said Lone Rock, Wis„
i in the southe central part of. the
! state had a temperature “estim
i a ted” at 53 degrees below zero.
1 The official thermometer there
goes only to 45 below. ;;
> At Cadillac, on the southern pe
ninsula of Michigan* a reading of
40 below was taken.
It was warmer near the Arctic
Circle in Canada than in many
parts of the mid-continent grip
ped by a bitter cold wave. In
Nome at 7:00 am. Tuesday it was
23 degrees above zero.
And it was cold and icy and
i wet over widespread areas of the
East. Colder weather was on the
! way, said U. S. forecasters, for
much of the East and parts of the
South.
Snow fell in Houston, Tex., and
the mercury dropped to 25 above.
Temperatures were below freez
ing all the way to the Rio Grande
valley. The cold threatened citrus
and vegetables in the rich agri
cultural region.
There was a mounting death
toll attributed to the cold and icy
weather. Hundreds suffered in
juries in falls on icy streets.
Schools closed in many areas—
in the east and Texas by ice
j storms, in the midwest and west
by cold weather. Travel on high
ways was slowed. Many air flights
were cancelled. Communications
weer disrupted in some areas be
cause of ice-coated power lines.

Ten SUP Sailors -
• SEWPTLE, (A*)—With blistering
criticisih of union officials, a su
perior court judge has ordered the
Sailors Union of the Pacific to re
instate 10 seamen expelled at &
trial conducted in their absence.
Superior Judge Theodore S.
Turner nailed the 10 Seattle men
were expelled from the AFL un
ion “in direct violation of the fun
damental;.* constitution of this
saihe Union.”
The TO were ousted by the SUP
at a union trial in San Francisco
while they were at sea on the
Motorship Island Mail.
Judge Turner, in a decision
handed down late Monday, held
the seamen weer not advised of
the charges against them, and
were not given written notice of
theft trial ofv hearings.
Judge Turner compared the sea
men’s ouster to Hitler German#
“where they sent carloads of Jews
to Poland in the dead of winter.”
“Probably 'Hitler, too, thought
this was necessary for his system
to survive,” the judge added.
The men ordered reinstated
were accused of supporting John
A. Mahoney, a union member ex
pelled by the SUP’s San Francisco
headquarters after questioning
the policy of union officers.
