SOUTHERN TOWN IS
RUINED BY TORNADO
(By Associated Press)

HATTIESBURG, Miss. April 81
The little farming community of Brax-
ton was virtually swept out Of exist
ence by a tornado yesterday, a heap
of smoking ruins and hardly stand
ing structure marking the town site
today. The storm struck with just
one great roar and the twisting winds
hurtled the little town into ruins,
among which lay the bodies of pos
sibly 1S dead and more than a score
injured.
Entirely cut off from the world by
telephone and telegraph communica-
tions, survivors struggled to the
town of D'Lo, where they gave first
word of the disaster. Railroad Off
cials there spread the new., and the
work of rescue and aid was rushed
forward, with state troops sent to take
charge.
A train loaded with tents. nurses,
soldiers and doctors left Jackson for
the scene of the disaster last night
In the meantime practically all of
those more seriously injured had been
taken to the hospital at D'Lo. where
every possible attention was given
them.

ON 15PER CENT BASIS

WASHINGTON. April PA reduc.
tion of not less than Is per cent of the

which tine shipping board must and

steamships called here today in n
effort to avert the threatened strike.

adoption of a new a""7oment cover.
ing wages and workir ~onditions
Present economic ,Gitions fully
warrant reduction in marine wages.
the chairman declared, adding that he
had weighed the matter long and care
fully, taken advice freely and come to
a mature and well-considered conclu-
sion. In addition to the wage reduc-
tion the chairman declared there
should be virtually elimination of over
time, discontinuance of night deck and
engineer officers, q substantial reduc-
ton in the subsistence allowance and
such other modification of the working
rules as would make for efficiency and
economy of operation. These. he said.
were his views of reasonable adjust
lnent of the matter.
THE shipping board" the chairman
said. docs not desire arbitrary wage
reductions based solely On the present
industrial depression, which might ex-
cept the seafares from the higher
standards OF living.
Make Counter Demands.
A reduction in wages of from 20 to
80 per cent was sought by the own
ers, but the men refused to consider
the wage cuts and made counter-de
mands for certain changes in the pres
ent regulations.
Chairman Benson, however, has
said that some reduction in wages
and the elimination of overtime were
essential to the permanency of the
American merchant marine in view o1
the changed economic conditions oi
the past year.
William A. Thompson. of the Texas
Steamship company, heads the own
ers' delegation to the conference
while the unions are represented by
Andrew Furuseth. for the seamen a nd
firemen, aud William Brown, for the
marine engineers. Representatives OF
all the marine unions on both the At
lantic and Pacific coasts were invited
to the conference, as we'll as the own
ers from both coasts.
Officials of the department of la
Dor are observing the negotiations
but as yet have taken no official part
The matter SO far has been entirely
in the hands of the shipping board
according to board officials, who. how
ever, have indicated that the labor de
partment conciliators might be called
| upon to settle the dispute in the even,
no agreement is reached.
