Federal participation in the air

a resolution introduced in the SEN
ate by Senator Pat McCarran,
Democrat, of Nevada, author of the

'The continued growth of aviation
in the fields of air transport, private

OF the most important factors now
acting toward business recovery"
Mr.. Horner said. New Federal pro-
grams, such as the training of 5000
pilots by the Civil Aeronautics Au-
thority, are bringing aviation much
closer to the rank and file of the
people than heretofore. Applica-
tions for pilot and mechanic train

The settlement, "Babbitt Town."

the hillside in 1885 and then sold
the idea of "pay-as-you-go" homes
and some of the land to friends.

Bodies Of Nine Found,
Raising Toll 10 28
In Mine Explosion
Thieves Take Store
Suits o. the 9 From
Lockers During Night
BY the Associated Press.

~ INC hsSOCldteO fTeSS.
PROVIDENCE, KY, July IT,
Bodies of nine men were found deep
in the Duvin Coal Mine by rescue
crew early today, raising to % the
death toll from an explosion last
Friday night.
From rescue workers, F. v. Ruck-
man, president of the mining COM
pany, located near the town, re-
ceived by telephone the word that
crushed last, half-hearted hopes the
nine might still be alive after a
search of nearly 80 hours.
Bodies of the other 10 victims
were found Saturday Ten men
escaped safely from the mine fol-
lowing the blast.
Mr.. Ruckman listened briefly at
the mine telephone connecting his
Office with rescue operations 260
feet underground and then turned
to newSmen, other company officials
and relatives of the victims to say,
They're dead"
The report was received at 2:4O
am. The men were entimbed in
the mine at 7:30 pm. Friday, four
hours after they had gone to work.
Thieves Take Victims Suits.
During the night thieves entered
the employees locker room at the
Duvin Coal Co. and stole "store
suits of the nine. They passed up
the working overalls of 10 men off
duty
John Daniel, State mine inspector,
said efforts to remove the bodies
probably would not be renewed until
later in the morning. He explained
additional ventilation was necessary
to clear the air in the mine entries.
Earlier a rescue squad had begun
the task of taking bodies of the
19 men found previously to the
surface, but Mr.. Daniel said poor
air conditions slowed the work.
Scattered groups of miners, their
families and others, already sad
dened by the death of the 19 men
whose bodies we're found earlier,
received the latest report with little
outward show of emotion. Most of
them had expected it.
Committee Seeks Aid Funds.
A spark which ignited gas fumes
Is believed to have caused the eX-
plosion.
A hastily organized Providence
Citizens Committee issued a plea
for 100000 to s125 900 to care for
destitute" families of the victims.
The committee was formed after
Mr.. Ruckman and his brother, D.
j. Ruckman, ST., principal owners
of the mine, announced the COM
pany was "hopelessly broke, mort
gagged and owes considerable money
and unable to give financial aid to
those dependent upon the dead
miners.

sive mayor, Thos. j. McCarvel, was
dismissed in Phil Daniels justice
court of assault charges preferred
by Alderman Owen Garfield of the
First ward. Evidence at the trial
showed Alderman Caufield had
given the mayor sufficient provoca-
ton and cause for any attack, but
also showed that no assault had been
committed. 1t was evident the
charges were purely personal on
Caufield's part.

were Alderman Garfield, DR.. Will
lets, Aldermen Collins, Dumonthier,
and Sladich for the plaintiff, and
City Clerk r. w. Glenn, Street Com
missioner Walter N. Riley, Night

gone along 100 per cent with union
labor in all work for the city and
also WPA projects sponsored by the
city. Anaconda was the first city in
the state to recognize the 8-hour law
for city fire fighters. The present
administration under Mayor McCar-
vel has done more real work with
worthwhile projects such as street
grading and storm sewers, street oil
