Stewardess Heroine.
The heroism of Miss Wurgaft, who
had worked for the airline only two
weeks. was one of the outstanding
memories of the survivors. She and
Co-pilot Woodwork, despite peril to
their lives from flaming gasoline, en-
tered the burning cabin several times to
save the occupants.
1t was more than two hours after the
crash in the isolated canyon before
Woodwork and Hart could find their
way through the tangled underbruSh to
a telephone to report the accident. Am
balances could get no closer than a
mile from the plane. All the survivors
except Pelouze were able to walk to the
ambulance.

DISABLED AMERICAN
VETERANS

Strong representations were made
during the past week to Federal author
ties by the Disabled American Veterans
to protect pension rights of service-con-
nected cases while employed under the
civil works program.
Under existing conditions disabled
veteran cannot draw more than Sc
while working for the Federal or the
District of Columbia government unless
the disability is the direct result of
combat with the enemy. When the
there was an exemption for men draw
ing not more than $50 per month so
that they could draw full pensions while
working in the forest.
The D. A. " reques. was that this eX-
clrption be raised to S75 month in
order to protect the so-called white
collar" employees on civil works. The
problem was placed before the Emer-
gency Relief Administration, the Veter-
ans Administration and the Director
of the Budget with the D. A. V. hope
that the exemption would be slightly
raised. However, it was made plain
that such a plan should not be consid-
cred as in any way interfering with the
D. A. v. drive to improve the present
prohibition against receipt of pensions
which obtains in the Federal and Dis
trict of Columbia government against
other employees, as that matter will be
presented to the coming session Of
Congress unless there is an executive
order covering it before that time

of Columbia department of the D. A. ",

man; John Chichester, Walker H. Colstan
