The Japs made their most frantic

Territorial Price Executive Donald O'Connor left Juneau over the past weekend for Seattle to attend the hastily scheduled freight rate hear ing there. He is prepared to pre- sent substantiated data to show the inevitable and disastrous effect the threatened 80 to 100 per cent in- crease would have upon the present internal economy and future de- velopment of the entire territory.
 Alaska OPA officials are greatly concerned over the possibility that three years work with merchants and consumers to stabilize and protect Alaskas cost of living might be wiped out by this impending threat of increase to freight rates already excessive and higher than for any other equivalent service.
 Estimated price increases of so per cent on groceries and meats, 85 per cent on construction, and 30 per cent on furniture are only few of the potentials O'Connor plans to point out in protest to this proposed action which is ex- pected to be bitterly contested by other territorial, civic and business representative at Tuesdays hear inp

 lN PLUNGE;
 16 DROWN

CHILEAN, Wash, Nov 26-Six- teen were drowned and five were saved when the 25-Mile Creek school bus hit a rock and dived into Lake Chelan during blind ing snow storm about nine miles north of here early today. Ted Brown said his wife, Glenna 37, and four children saved them selves after she broke window and they scrambled ashore. Jack Randle, 38, the bus driver, and Is children were lost.
 Deepsea divers were dispatched from Seattle and Coulee City to aid men dragging in about 60 feet of water for the bus and it's victims Brown said his wife, who caught a ride on the bus to keep a dentists engagement here, was being treated for shock at a friends home after the ordeal She told him no blame attached to Randle; that the bus was moving slowly when it hit the rock and slid out of control.
 The accident happened near an emergency highway phone installed at the site of rock slide.
 Bundled into blankets with hot water bottles, and lying in bed Mrs. Brown related that the last she could remember between the time the bus slid into the lake and she recovered consciousness on the snowy shore, was breaking through one of the submerging bus win dows.
 She could not recall how she and her four small companions got ashore nor did she know who it was who was helping her to her feet when she did recover her senses.
 Brown said all the bus occu- pants come from the same farm community in the 25-Mile Creek QtSlIlCb, lO bO 1o HiiCo dDo'c Chelan, and that Randle had picked up virtually his entire pas senger list when the accident oc- cured, near the rock slide area.

 First reports indicated some 40 or 50 children might have perished in the bus tragedy. but Chelan school authorities said some chil- dren who normally ride the bus were brought to school in private cars today or stayed home because of the snow and highway condi- tions

POISON GAS OF
 LAPS FOUND; E
 BEING DESTROYED

KYOTO, Nov 26. = Sixth Army troops racing against cold weather are destroying more than $500 tons of poison gas-enough to drench New York Undiscovered on the small island of Okuna, 35 miles from Kure Naval Base.
 It. Col Ulian Newlander Wash ington, D. C., Chemical Officer of the 41st Division, estimated the task would require at least two months. The lethal chemicals are being dumped in the ocean five miles from the nearest land.
 Troops are trying to finish the job by December when cold weather will freeze some of the gases similar to mustard gas of World War I-making it impossible to clean up the two-square mile island before next summer.
 The Japanese did not use any of the gas against Americans in the Pacific war.

 EQUIPPED, CLAIM

MANILA, Nov. 26.-A Japanese defense witness for It. Gen. Tomo- yuki Yamashita asserted today that "Oroyku Maru"-prison ship hell hole" on which many of 1900 cap tured Americans went mad-was well and comfortably equipped.
 The witness, Gen. Shiyoku Koh, was asked if most of the prisoners were forced to walk to the ship last December 13 when it was loaded with Americans bound for. Japan.
 "Yes, most of them were marched to the ship but some weaker ones were taken in trucks" Koh answer ed. He testified he sent along 40 guards and Japanese lieutenant.
 Survivors have described horribly damned conditions in the holds which drove many to madness before the vessel was bombed and sunk by American planes.
 The U s. Military Commission trying Yamashita on war crimes charges ordered an investigation of Kohs administration of prisoner of war and internees camps after hear ing his testimony that Cabanatuan Camp inmates were getting meat, eggs, fruits and vegetables"
 American military investigators have reported they had established that prisoners were slowly starving to death.

TOKYO, Nov. 26 The diet opened it's second extraordinary session of the occupation today with an agenda of several reform measures, but there were immedi- ate indications that some proposed legislation would be attacked.
 TomoTow's plenary session will be highlighted by Emperor Hiro- hito's reading of an imperial re- script outlining the scope of the session and ordering the diet to abolish oppressive laws. Today's meeting was limited to selection of working committees by the houses of peers and representatives.

 Curfew prevailed along a large sec ton of the Palestine coast, where the British were trying to stop H. legal immigration The British Sixth Airborne Division had cordoned off Shefayim, Givath Haim and Rist.- bon.
 Large crowds manned the barri- cades at Shefayim. Police advised them to disperse and attacked when they refused
 A usually well-informed Jewish informant said Is settlers of She fayim were wounded when troops penetrated the village, yielding the butt ends of their rifles. The report was not officially confirmed immed- lately.
 Presumably Maj. Gen. A. L. Bols, British Military Commander of the civil district of Lydda, ordered the restrictions to prevent further land- ings of illegal Jewish immigrants.
