NEAR FLORENCE, S. c.
All Bodies But One Burn.
ed Beyond Recognition
Following Blast

FLORENCE, S. e., Sept. =
-g)- Twenty-Five persons
nine of them soldiers-were
killed before dawn today when
an Eastern Air Lines plane
plunged into a dense swamp,
exploded and burned.
The pilot apparently was search
Ing for a place to make a forced
landing.
All of the bodies were burned
badly except one-that of man
who was thrown clear Of the
wreckage and killed by blow on
the head.
The bodies were brought out OF
the swamp late today in a tractor
nulled wagon to Army and civil
Ian ambulances. Rescuers had to
cut road three-fourths of a mile
through thick vegetation to get the
ambulances as near the scene as
possible.
The accident occurred about
am. (EWD. It was not until near
" 10 hours later that authorities
reached the place of the unexplain.
ed crash, deep in watery cypress
swamp.
For hours before dawn planes
from three nearby Army Dases
flew over the area, but apparently
the fire caused by the explosion
had died out.
It was not until well into the
morning that a Navy blimp Il.
nally spotted the wreckage and
lowered over the spot until recov-
ers could cut their way through
the thick, sub-tropical vegetation.
However, hours before that a IL
year-old boy, Hicks Harwell, who
lives on plantation a few miles
away, came upon the wreckage
and the mass of burned bodies.
The boy could get across the
creeks and wriggle through almost
impenetrable underground, bu
rescuers had to cut road through
the swamp.
About am. Mrs. W. L. Rankin,
the grandmother of the Harwell
boy, said she heard a tremendous
explosion, then several lesser ones.
The Rankins Immediately noti-
fed the authorities and army
planes from Florence, Sumter. and
Laurinburg Maxton, N. c., took
off to search for the wreck.
Capt. ]. Olin King of Miami,
Fla, was the pilot of the big DC-3
transport on the night run from
Miami to New York. A few min
utes before the crash he radioed

Records Indicate
BY The ASSOCIATED PRESS

BY The ASSOCIATED PRESS
The national total of strike idle
mounted Friday to 111,000, high
est in months as AFL President
William Green declared labor's
no-strike pledge ended with Ja-
pans surrender.
In Washington, Green told re-
porters he could not accept Presi-
dent Truman's request for con-
tinuance of the wartime ''no-
strike, no-lockout policy" but 1--WE
will try to work out some under
standing with management to
minimize work stoppages.''
A 1abor-mana cement conference
will meet in Washington Oct. % or
Nov. 5 to work out means to mini
mize labor disputes. The confer
ence was called by Secretary OF
Labor Schwellenbach and Secre-
tary of Commerce Wallace.
Records maintained by the AS
sociated Press showed yesterdays S
high total of idle over the country
compred with a previous high Of
92,815 on June ~ reached during
the wave of optimism growing out
Of victory in Europe.
The Detroit automobile industry,
racing to supply the peacetime
market with new cars, was hardest
hit by the new wave of stoppages.
Approximately $4,000 were idle in
the motor capital.
A continuing strike at the Kelsey
Hayes Wheel Company prompted
the Ford Motor Company to halt all
its passenger car and truck pro-
duction in eight cities and lay off
more than 10000 workers.
Ford officials said, however, 22,-
900 of those laid off would be re-
called to Detroit area plants Mon
day and that it was hoped all plants
outside Detroit could resume pro-
duction next week. Other arrange
ments were said to have been made
for materials ordinarily supplied
by Kelsey-Hayes.
The Kelsey-Hayes strike, involv-
ing 4,5OO C1O United Automobile
Workers, centers on company re-
fusal to rehire three minor union
officials.

Days and Nights" Konstan-
tine Simonov, Simon & Schuster,
1945.
So far as the publishers know,
this is the first nonpoliticAf tfevpl
to come out Of Soviet Union. The
characters are simple, believe
able human beings. whose souls
neither belong to Dostoievsky or
Carl Marx, but to themselves and
their country. The setting is the
massive and terrible struggle for
Stalingrad, where Russia turned
the Nazi tide, and possibly won
the war as much as any single
battle won it.
The story is a simple one 1t
is the tale of seventy days and
nights in which a young Red
Army officer seized and held
three apartment houses in Stain
grad, unmasked and killed a
traitor, learned the skills of
house to house fighting with
heavy modern weapons, fell deep
