SEIFFERT’S
Passengers Escape
Burning Plane
LOS ANGELES, </P)—The civil
aeronautics board has launched an
investigation into a fire which con
sumed a four-motor TWA airliner
iust after it landed at the municip
al airport. Eighteen passengers
and five crew members escaped
safely.
The fire started in the right out
board motor af er what the pilot
called a rough landing in a dense
fog yesterday. The plane was from
Washington, D. C.
Police credited the pilot, Capt.
Evan Lewis, 44, Los Angeles, with
preventing the plane, a Constella
tion. from cracking up in a ditch
near the runway.
The passengers, including four
children, and crew members es
caped minutes before the flames
crackled through the fuselage.
Some air mail was destroyed.
Captain Lewis said he believed
a gas line snapped in the landing.
WASHINGTON, (^—Presiden
tial press secretary Charles G.
Ross described as “a complete lie”
a columnist’s assertion that Ross
gave up his house because of lack
of confidence that President Tru
man would win the election.
George Dixon said in his syndi
cated column ‘hat Ross has been
“quietly but desperately turning
on the heat to get himself an apart
ment in Washington” because
“Charley had given up his house.”
Ross read part of the column to
a news conference and said “the
whole thing is a complete lie.”

Unions Musi Ratify
Terms Of Shipping
Strike Settlement
(Continued from Page One)
which was the amount the union
was asking when it struck Sept. 2.
The AFL union officers tenta
tively agreed on a 13 cent hike re
troactive to Aug. 21 to bring the
eastern daytime basic scale to
$1.88 an hour.
The 65,000 AFL union members
vote tomorrow on the terms. The
union’s lowest previous demand
was 25 cents above the pre-strike
$1.75 hourly daytime rate.
i Waterfront observers predicted
j union ratification of the Pacific
agreement but believed that if no
; hi ches developed it would be
about a week before dock work
resumes on the 265 idled ships.
The Pacific coast waterfront em
ployers association agreement with
the longshoremen carried provi
I sions for a three-year contract, to
i
; be operated under a peace plan un
derwritten by the national CIO on
one side and the San Francisco
employers’ council on the other.
It provided for improved griev
ance machinery, increased vaca
| tion benefits and a designated day
off each week. There would be
maximum shifts of nine hours, and
an 8 a.m. starting time.
The announcement of the Pa
cific terms described the proposed
i new pact as “one based on com
plete good faith.” The two sides
joined in the prediction that “this
! contract and this new spirit can
mean a new era for west coast
shipping.”
Some 28.000 strikers and others
|
idled by the walkout have been off
the job from Canada to Mexica in
this maritime strike, exceeded in
length only by the bloody 1936
strike that lasted 98 days.
The Pacific American steamship
association stall must settle with
the CIO marine cooks and stew
ards, the independent marine fire
men and the CIO radio operators.
An agreement was reached some
! time ago with hie marine engin
eers, but it was contingent upon
settlement with the other unions.
