Strife Engulfs The
Peaceful World
<By The Associated Press>
Strife tore Indonesia, Greece
and Palestine today.
Dutch armed forces, which
started shooting when negotia
tions with the Indonesian repub
lic failed, were declared by Dutch
sources to have isolated central
Java from the rice-producing east
and the west. The Indonesians
said their army had entered a sec
tor of the north Java port of Se
marang.
The Greek government said a
guerrilla force of up to 1,500, us
ing heavy artillery, was repelled
after an attack on Grevena, 40
miles east of the Albanian border.
The Greeks have asserted that the
guerrillas came partly from Al
bania, and that Yugoslavia and
Bulgaria had been aiding the ir
regulars.
Sporadic acts of violence con
tinued in Palestine, a British
mandate, where underground
Jewish organizations apparently
were acting in protest against the
deportation of 4,500 Jews inter
cepted on the SS Exodus of 1947.
Ten persons had been killed and
75 injured in nine days. Another
refugee ship, the SS Return to
Zion, with 400 Jews aboard was
reported nearing Palestine with
British destroyers “on her track.’
Mystery Of Lost
Plane Solved
LONGMIRE, Mt. Rainier Na
tional Park, (/P)—A tattered frag
ment of a marine’s uniform, a
weathered piece of serviceman’s
health record and a few bits of
wreckage ended last night the
seven-month mystery over the
fate of a marine transport plane
which disappeared with 32 men
aboard.
Members of a party of eight
Rainier national rangers found
i the bits of evidence high up near
| the 10.000-foot level of Mount
, Rainier’s treacherous South Ta
homa glacier, and navy officers
said there was no doubt about
their being from the long-missing
plane, which was lost from a
storm-harassed formation on a
San Diego-Seattle flight.
The rangers camped last night
at a base above the mile level and
1 planned to return today to the
area where the plane apparently
; crashed into the face of a sheer
3.000-foot cliff. The tell-tale bits
' of evidence were found on the
; crevasse-torn glacier at the foot
; of the precipice.
I Capt. A. O. Rule, commander of
the Sand Point naval air station,
said the rangers’ reports indicated
that the plane exploded, scattered
wreckage and personnel over a
1 wide area.
