Army rescue planes reared low
along the face OF a Soo-foot cliff
trimming the bay 10 parachute sup.
plies to is0 half frozen passengers
and crewlnen huddled IN two groups
ashore.
Fifteen Of those on the exposed
narrow beach were swept onto the
rocks BY rip-tides, the rest were
yanked to safety on breeches buoy
gear strung by landing parties.
Small Craft Remove 296
Small craft-including whalebOats,
Army barges and raftS--rode the
rough waters TO take 296 others
from the ice coated wreck. The
survivors were shutled TO nine res-
cue ships where they were fed hot
meals before being brought here.
Working against time and bitter
cold, the rescue crews readied q
a s=,ond brecheS buoy to transfer
those clinging, to the face OF the
jagged cliffs back TO rescue ships.
Sourdoughs, who battled through
snow-choked mountain passes By
dog-team last night to reach the
cliff, abandoned plans to lead shore
survivors out on foot. Instead they
organized fires and shelters for
Shivering passengers.
100 Removed Earlier
All night long, tiny power
launches working from the rescue
ships standing a half mile off
shore piled back and forth across
the treacherous seas carrying sur
vivors to safety.
Fifty women and children, halt
frozen from their long exposure
aboard the forward part Of the ves-
sci trapped on the rocks, were taken
from the ship yesterday.
Fifty other women and children
who were rescued from the Inflated
craft Monday night, a few minutes
before the vessel broke in two, were
rushed to Seward where the Army
was mobilizing doctors and nurses
to care for the survivors.

of the disaster with relief supplies
to aid those taken aboard the res-
cue craft.
Army authorities were sending a
trainload of physicians, nurses and
medical supplies from anchorage
to Seward to take care of the sur
vivors to this point.
Some of those rescued were suf-
fering seriously from cold and hun
ger. None of those aboard the
Yukon have had any hot food or
drink since the vessel hit the reef.
The Yukon, which was carrying
about 100 service personnel in addi-
ton to other passengers and crew
members, was only eight hours out
from Seward when she went

posed compromise might lead to
virtual destruction of the UNO.
Moscow Approval Asked
Vice-Foreign Commissar Andrei
Vishinski also sought Moscow's ap-
proval for the formula. The council
was scheduled to meet again at 8
p. m. "a p. m. EST.
Some British officials felt that
the United States "let Britain
down" during last nights confer.
ence in which the Stettinius pro-
posal was made. American officials
contended the formula was the
only "out to avoid Russian invoca-
ton Of the big power veto for the
first time.
The compromise was designed to
prevent either Britain or Russia
from claiming victory in the bat
tie over Russian charges that Brit
ish troops threaten the peace OF
Greece.
Hurries from Chamber
Bevin came to a special Security
Council meeting for election Of
world court judges this morning
and stayed a few minutes. Appar-
emily he wanted to talk to Vishin-
sky and Stettinius once more be-
fore the Cabinet meeting to which
he hurried from the Council cham
Der.
Even If both parties accept the
compromise, the crisis will leave
deep scars. Everybody was angry,
particularly the small nations.
1t was touch and go whether the
Cabinet would accept the formula.
Bevin was said to dislike it in
tensely.
The formula would dispose OF
Russian charges that British troops
in Greece are endangering peace
with a simple statement by the
council chairman ". j. o. Maxim
of Australia. Thre would be no res
olution. and no vote on the Russian
charges.
The statement, it was understood,
would not mention withdrawal Of
British troops from Greece. 1t also
would not mention a categorical
exoneration Of Britain Of Soviet
charges.
Bevin his stubbornly demanded
throughout that the Council Off
cially clear Britain of the Russian
charges. Vishinsky has been equ-
ally adamant in refusing to accept
any Council action stating that
Britain has not threatened the
peace.
Gloom Pail Hangs
The atmosphere at UNO head
quarters after last nights angry
secret meeting was one of gloom
and despair. Delegates were dis
turbed at RuSsia'S threat to use the
veto and even more upset by the
big powers unwillingness to con-
tinue their scrap in public.
The Council went through the
motions of a public meeting, but
within five minutes it was behind
closed doors trying to make deal.
All Big s. members, Poland and
Australia attended the secret nego-
tiations. Other non-permansnt

Automobile of Deputy Sheriff
Alva Moore was badly damaged
when it was struck by truck at
the intersection of w. Fifth and
Court sts., Friday morning, by a
pickup truck driven by Russell
Murphy, Bellefontaine.
Deputy Moore said Murphy

until it was too late, and skidded
into the left front end of his car.
Murphy agreed to take care OF
the damage and no charges were
filed. The pickup truck he was
| driving belongs to the KnoWlton
Construction CO. and was damag-
ed about the front end.
Both vehicles were going very
slowly, due to the slippery streets,
and neither occupant was hurt,
Mr.. Moore said.

REINDEER GOOD MEAT

Reindeer are hard to get, even
in normal times. But it's good to
think that they make sizzl'ng,
brown roastS.
Reindeer meat has flavor OF
its own, but it tastes a lot like
beef or veal.
Usually, the round is preferred
for roasting or steaks. The low
er end of the round, being less
tender, can serve as pot roast.
Being thinner than beef, the loin
and rib cuts make satisfactory
small steaks. These cuts also
may be used as chops.
Double loin may be prepared
either boned or unboned and then
roasted as saddle. The shoul-
der also makes fine roast
The big problem, of course, is
getting the reindeer.

Wheeler Urged 10 Run
As Independent, but
Reserves Decision
BY the Askocioted Press

Senator Wheeler, Democrat, ol
Montana said today he is being
urged to run as an independent in
the November Montana Senatorial
election-a course that might put
President Truman on a political
spot
While Senator Wheeler told q
reporter he has made no decision
he said influential Republicans as
we'll as Democrats have asked him tc
make three-man race of the con-
test that now lies between Democrat
Left Erickson and Republican Wales
N Ecton.
The fact that Senator Wheeler
was considering such a course came
on the heels of an announcement by
the President late yesterday that he
had no intention OF taking the stump
in Missouri against Representative
Slaughter.
Asked at his news conference
whether he will make any speech
against the Democratic Representa- =
tive, whose nomination he opposes
the President replied in the negative
No Missouri Speech on Trip.
He has no intention, Mr.. Truman
said, of making any speeches in Mis-
souri, when he goes there next
month.
Mr.. Truman will fly to his home
at Independence August 3 and will
vote in the Democratic primary
there the following Tuesday.
Mr.. Slaughter is running for re-
nomination in the 5th district which
adjoins that in which the President
maintains his residence.
The President told his last news
conference that he was against Mr..
Slaughter because of the latter's op-
position TO his legislative program in
the House Rules Committee.
He also said he would take the
stump this fall if necessary to aid
the Democratic congressional cam
paign.
Meanwhile, the White House de-
clined comment today on a pub
lished report that pressure" was
being brought on Jerome Walsh tc
quit the Democratic primary race
in the Fifth Missouri District, where
the President has Endorsed Enos AK
tell.
Any decision by Senator Wheeler
to reenter the fight for the Senate
seat he has held "A years would
bring about a situation in which Mr.
Truman probably would be called
upon either to extend again OF
withdraw the helping hand he gave
Senator Wheeler in the July l6 pri-
mary.
Urged an End to Smear"
At that time the President called
for an end to the smear campaign
he said opponents were making
against Senator Wheeler. adding
that criticism of himself also was
