BREMERTON, Wash. <A>)—The
stark story of the death of Charles
A. Bowman, 39, formerly of Brem
erton, in a remote Alaska fishing
camp, was revealed here Saturday
in a radio message to his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bowman.
The message was sent by the
dead man’s widow, Mrs. Alice
Bowman, with whom he lived
alone at Sagniaw Bay, some 200
miles northwest of Ketchikan. He
was a fish company buyer.
The daugher-in-law radioed
that she had returned to the camp
last Friday after weeks of hospit
alization in Ketchikan. Shortly af
ter the mail boat which brought
her had gone out of earshot, she
discovered she was alone, her hus
band nowhere about.
She suspected, she said, her
husband had drowned while
working on his small boat.
But it took her three frighten
ing days to start a balky gasoline
motor which powered the couple s
radio set to call for help.
She finally contacted the coas
guard for help. Then bad wt^t^.ier
held up a search for three mbre
days.
Finally, Friday a coast guard
plane located her husband’s body,
and flew it and Mrs. Bowman to
Ketchikan.

Postal inspectors said the pack
age came from an eastern city.
Nearly every window in the

of American policy.
Russia issued a white paper
which declared the projected
North Atlantic Pact is part of a
British-American plan for a new
war. The pact is a plot against tne
United Nations and has as its ob
ject the esatblishment of British
American domination of the world
by force, the Soviet foreign minis
try said. The ministry added that
Russia is going to fight “more;
and more insistently” against the
alleged attempt to wreck the U. N.
In China, hopes for peace within
the predictable future faded al
most to the vanishing point. Com- J
munist gunners planted artillery
on the north bank of the Yangtze,
east of Nanking, and ominously
warned the nationalist govern-'
ment that if it wants to show its •
sincerity for peace it will not move
out of the capital.
The warning came too late. A
check failed to locate a single na- j
iionalist cabinet member in Nan

GREECE MAKES
FOREST PLANS
ATHENS—The Economic Coop

the Greek government have drawn
up an $800,000 reforestation and
mountain soil erosion control pro- 1
gram to increase Greece’s lumber
supply. Almost 60% of the total
area of Greece is non-productive
j
mountainous land. Less than 20V2

Labor Law'
'Continued from'Page One)
President Truman .
Secretary of labor Tobin is due
to go before the committee today
to explain provisions of the new
measure, which was released to
reporters by the committee Satur
day without comment.
Under the Taft-Hartley law, the
government has had authority to
obtain court orders to bar strikes
for an 80-day period after other
means of settlement had failed.
These orders can be sought where
the national welfare is involved.
This provision was vigorously
opposed by labor groups which
demanded Taft-Hartley repeal as
an issue in the election campaign
last fall.
Under the new law proposed by
the administration, a 30-day “cool
ing-off” period would be provided.
This is designed to avert “nation
al paralysis” sirikes.
The first step would be for the
President to appoint an emergen
cy fact-finding board. Such boards
would have authority to make
recommendations for settlement.
Under the Taft-Hartley law in
quiry boards can report only on
the issues without suggesting any
solution.
ing the occupation 25 of good
forests were destroyed. The new
program calls for the planting of
trees on the Greek mainland and
islands, maintenance of tree nurs
eries, and the construction of for
est roads. In addition, small ma
sonry nad wicker dams will be
bulit in the beds of steep torrents.

17 Kids, Still Has to
Pay Income Tax
ST. LOUIS. (TP)—Mr. and Mrs'
■ Carl Schaeffer like children. And
; it is just as well they do—they
have had 17 of them.
Two-day old John Michael is
the youngest. One child, a girl,
died when she was five weeks old.
Schaeffer, 48, actor, says his
business is so good that even with
f6 children “I still have to pay
some income tax.”
Grocery and clothing bills don’t
worry the Schaeffers. “It doesn’t
cost much more to feed one more
and in a family this size everyone
i akes hand-me-downs as a matter
of course.” the father said.
And for housing—“It doesn’t get
too crowded in our 14-room house.
We even have a public address
system to keep tab on them.”
