Strike May Be
Settled Soon
NEW YORK, (£») — Settlement
on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of
the strike of deck officers hinged
today upon acceptance of a new
proposal submitted to ship opera
tors by the AFL masters, mates
and pilots union.
While Capt. William Ash, co
chairman of the union negotiating
committee, would not disclose de
tails of the proposal other than to
describe it as “something that has
never been written into a contract
before," he said its acceptance
could settle the walkout.
Operators also would not dis
cuss the counter-proposal but
promised an answer at the re
sumption of negotiations today.
The masters and other deck of
ficers originally sought a 30-per
cent wage increase as well as pre
ferential hiring. Ash said compro
mises had been reached on the
pay raise and most other issues
and that the operators had agreed
to grant preferential hiring to
mates and pilots but not skippers.
Meanwhile, CIO marine engin
eers, who stuck with the masters
! 25 days ago, tieing up virtually all
the nation’s shipping, counted re
sults of voting on ratification of
an agreement reached earlier in
the week to settle the East and
Gulf Coast phases of their strike.
The huge New York local of
the engineers union, the marine
engineers beneficial association,
voted overwhelmingly to accept
the pact yesterday. The balloting
result was sent to union head
quarters in Washington, D. C.,
where Samuel Hogan, president,
is expected to announce nation
wide results of the voting. Some
locals have voted for rejection.
Three Dead In
Plane Crash; Hunt
For Pilot Goes On
ANCHORAGE, bP)—Three per
sons were found dead in the
wreckage of an Alaska Airlines
plane and seven search planes
continued today to press their
hunt for a six-placc plane, oper
ated by the same line, missing in
Kotzebue Sound region since Mon
day.
The latter plane was believed to
carry no passengers. It was pilot
ed by Norman Weaver, second
oldest flier in the Seward penin
sula.
Pilot Weaver was on a flight
from Candle to Kotzebue on Mon
day afternoon, and was last heard
from when he reported to Kotze
bue shortly after takeoff at Can
dle.
It is the general belief of pilots
who have been searching the area
that his plane must have gone
down in Eschscholtz Bay, al
though it was reported that an Es
kimo fisherman stated he saw the
plane flying over Chamisso Island
about three o’clock Monday af
ternoon. The time checked with
the flight of the missing plane.
Bodies of the three victims of
the first plane were found Tues
day by a land party which tra
versed 28 miles of wilderness dur
ing a snowstorm to reach the
scene. The dead were Pilot WL
liam Henry Kelly of Anchorage,
and two passengers. Karl W. Hoc c,
39, and his nephew Leeman Edgar
Riddle, 19.

Peace Negotiations
Hopeless In (Jiina
(By HAROLD K. MILKS)
NANKING. f/P) — The Govern
ment’s military offensives in Man
churia and the Shantung penin
sula are building new barriers to
any possibility of the resumption
of formal peace negotiations here.
Observers watching minority
party efforts to woo some corn
compromise from the Kuomin
tang (Government party) and the
Communists are amazed that the
Government’s military leaders
would set off these campaigns at
a time when the possibility of ne
gotiating some new cease fire
agreement hung in the balance.
Some observers saw in these de
velopments proof of reports fre
quently heard in Nanking that
some military leaders are running
the government rather than the
government running the military.
They declared these commanders
are .so filled with the success cf
their North China campaigns that
they are heedless of the peace ef
forts which more moderate Kuo
mintang leaders are pursuing.
U. Of W. Examines
Dead Bikini Fish
SEATTLE, i/P)—Three months
alter the last atom bomb exploded
at Bikini lagoon professors of the
University of Washington School
of Fisheries are handling with
rubber gloves dead fish taken
from the waters of the area.
Between 5,000 and 6,000 fish,
obtained by a variety of means
from the lagoon and surrounding
waters, have been received at the
university’s department of fisher
ies for study.
Lauren R. Donaldson, associate
professor of fisheries, who will di
rect the research, won’t say much
about what has already been
learned about the effect of the
bombing on fishllfe, that is a top
drawer secret, but he would ad
mit there is plenty of radiation
left in the barrels of fish carcasses
stored in the laboratory.
The professors are taking no
chances with their specimens.
They put on rubber gloves before
dipping their hands into a barrel
to haul out a fish of doubtful
identification.
