i“Red Star” Plane
Sighted Over Tiny
Alaskan Village
SEATTLE, (/P) — An Alaskan
merchant said Saturday that an
j airplane bearing a red star was
seen flying over his home village
last August.
John T. Emel, owner of the Ber
ing Trading company, said the
, plane appeared over the town of
Alakanuk, 300 miles southeast of
Nome .last August.
Emel, postmaster of the town,
said he was in a boat at the time
i
l and saw the ship flying at about
1,000 feet. The sun was in his
eyes, he said, and he could see
only that it resembled a B-29.
He added, however, that two
residents of the village told him
they saw a red star on the fuse
lage and red painted on the plane’s
tail and wing tips. He said the two
i were a fisherman and a native
girl.
The plane circled low, Emel
; said, and then flew north up the
; Yukon river.
Emel said he notified army au
thorities and they questioned him
about the plane.

Kin Of World
War II Dead
WASHINGTON, — Ame r i c a n
Red Cross chapters have been 98
per cent successful in locating
nearly 31,000 next of kin of World
War II dead in connection with
Lhe reburial program, it was an
nounced by the American Red
Cross national headquarters today.
The Red Cross began searching i
tor the next of kin at the request'
of the Army Quartermaster Gen
eral’s office after efforts by the
military to locate them had been
exhausted. The army wished to
learn from the next of kin whether
or not they wished the remains of
relatives to be returned to the
United States for reburial.
The remains of 81,500 members
of the armed forces already have
been returned to this country ac
cording to a recent announcement,
and before the program is com
pleted, 150,000 are expected to be
returned for final burial.
Red Cross chapters in addition
to the location service also are as
sisting persons who desire help in
the advisability of having remains
returned and in meeting the re
quirements established by the mil
itary.
