Dragging for Bodies
OF Five Is Suspended /;
Battered Boat Found
Father Of Boy Identifies
Croft as One in Which
Quintet Set Out

Coast GuardSmen late yesterday
gave up dragging for the bodies OF
five persons feared drowned Wed
nesday in the Potomac River as the
father of one of them identified q
boat found earlier in the day as
that in which the group was last
seen.
The craft, frail 15-foot canvas
covered affair, drifted against a
launch tied to the float of the
Potomac Boat Club, slightly up
stream from Key Bridge. 1t was
badly battered and without the out
board motor with which 1t was
equipped when it set out on its
tragic cruise above Little Falls.
Loris N. Mouser, father of Charles
Michael Mouser, 7, who was among
the party of five. inspected the craft
at the Harbor Police precinct and
said it was the boat which had been
missing
During the day Coast Guardsmen
from Baltimore strung a line half
way across the turbulent river above
the old Chesapeake & Ohio Canal
dam, opposite Brookmont, Md, and
carried on dragging operations from
two boats The safety line extended
from Snake Island to the Virginia
shore.
When they had finished their
search, they informed Harbor police
the bodies probably had been car
ried over the dam toward Chain
Bridge.
Police at the Harbor station said
last night it would be fruitleSs for
them to carry on the operations but
that they would maintain a close
watch along the shores and at the
waters edge of the various small
islands in the river.
The missing five were last seen
In the tiny boat near the Virginia
shore and not far above the dam
at dusk Wednesday. In addition to
young Mouser, they were James O.
Oliver, 90, of Brookmont; his son
Dwan, 7; Walter Shelton, 26, of
Forrestville, Md. and his son

The program was outlined by
Frank Mccormick, athletic director
of the University of Minnesota and
chairman of the Legion's National
Health Committee, who said:
I'VE are convinced the Govern

health and athletics program and
our aim is to stimulate interest in
physical preparedness, get the mes
sage to the public on what should
be done and cooperate with all
groups and agencies in the expan-

rugged citizenry."

Serving with Mr.. Mccormick on
the committee are James p O'Neil
of Manchester, N. H., and Sam

HELSINKI, Jan. "A new pre-
mier, Jukka RangeD, finally sue
ceeded today in forming cabinet
after two and half month politi-
cal deadlock.
The new government promised to
adhere to former Finnish policy.
1t received pledges of support from
all parties although the Agrarians,
Finland's second largest, backed it
only on condition that war COM
pensation and land grants to
refugees from Karelian Isthmus
areas ceded to Soviet Russia would
be hastened.

HONOLULU, Jan, 4.-Reports that
Japan was conscripting Americans
OF japanese ancestry in Hawaii were
denied today by Otojiro Okuda, act
ing japanese consul general
The allegations, made public in
Washington by Senator Gillette,
Democrat, of Iowa. said japanese
consulates were used as conscription
centers.
Okuda said the reports were "ab-
solutely unfounded." He reiterated
that dual citizens of Japanese an
cestry could not be called upon for
Japanese military services.
The recent japanese census in

Would Accept Challenge.
Mr.. Mccormick estimated there
are about 100000 youth and some
100000 adults who might benefit
from various aspects of the program.
The Legion, he said, was particu-
larly anxious to expand athletic re-
creational activities in small towns
and cities where schools provided
the only facilities.
Leaders of totalitarian powers
have said they have little to fear
from this country because America
has grown soft" Mr.. Mccormick
said The Legion thinks this chal-
lenge should be accepted-and that
every effort be made to place this
country in a position to protect
its form of government That means
building rugged individuals in a
democratic way"
