Army Will
Reinter Bodies
WASHINGTON, (A5)—The army
made it clear today that it will re
ime its “long-established” policy
of reinterring, in the nearest na
icn.ii cemetery, bod es now buried
in abandoned military posts.
Resumption of the policy, sus
eaded by the war department
several months ago after protests
y Reps. Kilburn (R. N.Y.> and
Fuller (R. N. Y.> was announced
in a letter to Kilburn by Maj. Gen.
T. B. Laykin, the army’s quarter
matter general.
The New Yorkers had urged
hat the bodies, including those of
many historical personages, be
>.?rmitted to remain in the post
■ 'meteries, and that they be made
“national monuments” or “nation
al h'storic sites” under the interior
department.
Next-of-kin or descendants have
the choice, however, of determin
r if the body of their relative or
ancestor be interred in a national
cemetery or a burial ground of
h'i own choice.
The war department’s memorial
division said cemeteries at 20 mil
itary posts are included in the re
internment program. They in
clude: Chilkoot barracks, Alaska.

Transport Plane
Missing In
Washington
- .
SEATTLE, (/P)—The navy alert
ed forest rangers, state patrol and
all of western Washington today
in search of a Marine corps trans
port plane missing with 32 men
since 4:13 p.m. yesterday.
The search was handicapped by
thick weather and the dark color
of the plane which made visibility
from the air doubly difficult.
The twin-engined R5C (Curtis
Commando) was one of six which
left San Diego, Calif., at 10:36 a
m., yesterday on a non-stop flight
to transfer a Marine corps contin
gent to Seattle. They encountered
bad weather in Oregon and south
west Washington. Four landed at
Portland. One made it safely to
Sand Point naval air station.
The missing plane last was con
tacted when the pilot wirelessed :
the Toledo range station, a few J
miles south of Chehalis, and was I
cleared to next communicate with
the powerful Civil Aeronautics
Administration station at Everett,,
said Comdr. P. D. Duke, Sand |
Point operations officer.
The Toledo range station report
ed it cleared the plane to fly high
er, due to icing conditions it was
encountering at 9,000 feet.
Thereafter it was silent despite
frantic efforts of navy, army, and
CAA radio stations, Commander I
Duke added.
The plane was expected here at
5:06 p.m. When it finally became
apparent the ship could be listed
as “missing” rather than merely
“overdue” the navy appealed to
newspapers, news service and ra-1
dio stations to ask clues from the,
public.
Duke said the plane had fuel j
sufficient to keep her in the airj
some 4Vfe hours beyond her sched-!
uled arrival time.
The navy public relations office
at San Diego said the missing
transport carried a crew of three
and 28 privates and a sergeant
military policeman as passengers.
The men had seabags and full <
back packs. Their names were not
divulged.

Germans Used Plastic
For Filling Teeth
Headquarter* Alaskan Depart
ment—A plastic substance, used
by American dentists only as a
base for dentures and for crown* '
and inlays, was successfully util- i
ized by Germans as a permanent |
filling for cavities during the war.1
Major General Norman T. Kirk,
the Surgeon General, reported to
day. A study made by an officer!
of the Surgeon General’s office of
German dental pract cei since the !
start of the war found little else
of value to the dental profession
in the United States.
Stainless steel was widely us,ed
as a substitute for the superior but
scarce gold and silver. No new
plastics were found, although
some known to the American den
I
tal profession were put to novel
uses.
Acrylic resin, a material widely
used in the United States as a
base for false teeth, was developed
by the Germans as a permanent
filling for use in a quickly hard
ening plastic state in prepared
cavities.
Development of this material
was halted in Germany by de
struction of the factory in 1943,
but it already had been used ex
perimentally at that time. Fillings
inserted in 1943 were found in ex
cellent condition in 1945.
