b8 Trapped Miners
All Dead, Experts
Agree at Barley

BARTIEY, w. Va, Jan. IL. (UP)
Mining engineers and inspectors
agreed today that the 68 men trap
ped in a coal mine explosion here
probably were dead, after the bodies
of % other miners had been re-
covered by rescue crews.
The bodies of 13 of the victims
of Wednesdays explosion were TAX
en- from the chamber known as the

bodies were taken from the mine
yesterday.
E. L. Chatfield, a state mine in
spector, said it was the opinion OF
mining men that the explosion was
of such violence that the miners
didn't have a chance to move from
their tracks," Cause of the explosion
was not determined.
Chatfield said car rails had been
twisted like paper, and that a coal
loading machine weighing between
two and three tons had been blown
60 feet off its track.
Chatfield also suggested the "af-
ter-damp" which followed the ex-
plosion left the three entries where

Russians Put GPU
Troops Into Line
On Northern Front
FINNISH MID-FINLAND ARMY

FINNISH MID-FINLAND ARMY
HEADQUARTERS, Royaniemi, jan
u. CUP)-Picked troops of the Rus
sian secret police, the dreaded GPU
have been in action on the Suomus-
Salmi front in a vain attempt to
retrieve the disaster TO three Rus
sian divisions, Finnish sources said
today
Firms believed that GPU men, or
other picked Russian troops, had
been thrown also into the Salla
front, above the Arctic Circle.
where another big Russian force
is reported in difficulties.
On the Arctic PetSamo front, ac-
cording to fragmentary reports,
Russian troops took advantage of
a sudden rise in temperature TO try
to regain some of the territory they
had lost in recent fighting. 1t was
reported that all attacks so far had
failed.
Finnish officers who took part in
the last phase of the battle which
resulted in the destruction of the
44th Russian infantry division on
the Suomussalmi front reported
that GPU shock troops were thrown
into the fight, among other REIN
forcements, trying to rescue the
44th.
The GPU men. the Firms said,
could be distinguished by their bet
ter outfits - for instance leather
boots instead of felt ones, and sheep
skin coats-and also by better fight
ing spirit. The GPU units seemed
much better trained and much
higher spirited than ordinary Rus
sian troops who, according to the
Firms, in some instances seemed
not to have their whole hearts in
the fighting.
"GPU men know how to move in
the woods and uso trees as cover
said one of the officers. They also
are much better shots than the
ordinary Red army soldiers"

British Drive Off
Nazi Bomber from
Thames Estuary

LONDON. Jan. IL. (UP)-Royal
air force fighter patrols and anti
aircraft batteries drove a German
airplane out to sea from the Thames
estuary shortly after IL am, the
air ministry announced today.
The announcement was made af-
ter reports of anti-aircraft gunfire
at numerous points on the east
coast. British planes were reported
particularly active in the Yorkshire
area.
War in the air conceded with
disclosure that the British steamer
Keynes, 1706 tons, was bombed and
sunk by German planes in the
North Sea yesterday and that the
British steamer Granta, 27l9 tons,
was sunk by a mine off the east
coast of England today. Crews of
both ships were rescued.
During todays asti-aircraft fire
group of British pursuit planes
chased out to sea a German Helm
kel bomber, and swept down on it,
their machine guns squirting bull
lets. The engagement was watched
by people ashore.
Anti-aircraft guns on both sides
of the Thames estuary fired on a
German plane which passed at
great height.
Suffolk coast anti-aircraft guns
fired on a Heinkel bomber which
was flying high toward the south
east.
