Rescuers Find All Dead On Crashed P.A.A. Plane

kEICHlkAN, lH') - A deep snow blanket near the top of Mt. Tamgas, on Annette Island, ham pered searchers seeking Saturday to recover bodies of IS persons killed when a Pan American Air ways plane ploWed into the peak last Sunday.
 Eight Coast Guardsmen, led by It. Comdr. F. s. Schreiber, reach ed the Wreckage late Friday and messaged they had found found four bodies with no survivors. The plane had apparently partly burn ed and exploded, scatt ing wreckage far and wide. With i'm proved visibility, search planes found the spot earlier Friday.
 A possible cause of the crash was avadnced by William L. Ba- ker, editor and publisher of the Ketchikan Chronicle, who said he believed the 2,610 foot elevation listed for the peak on the charts was incorrect. Baker voiced his theory after accompanying search planes on their flights around Mt. | TamgaS.
 Baker said the altimeter of the Coast Guard plane in which he was flying showed 3,400 feet at the level of the Wreckage and that the summit loomed several hun dred feet above, apparently at 4,000 or 4,l00 feet. The crash scene was aboue six miles from the Annette field.
 Several pilots had also reported that the Annette Island airport ra- dio beam was Wavering Sunday afternoon at the time of the crash, he said. Neither civil aeronautics administration officials nor coast guard foficers would comment.
 The plane, flown by Capt. Ali. N. Monsen, veteran pilot, found extreme air turbulence over An nette, his last message said, and planned to fly on to Juneau.
 MonSen, however, had flown for years in the Alaska service and knew the Southeastern Alaska terrain well, other filers said. Friday night, 6 CAA men and II army air force mountaineers land ed on Upper TamgaS Lake, on the mountains slopes. Other inspec- tors were to arrive there Saturday morning and Pan American Air ways had a crew of 40, headed by Capt. c. F. Maxwell, also set to climb the peak.
 A Pan American Airways spokesman said the bodies would be brought down the mountain either to the lake, or to the ocean shore where the coast guard cut ter Citrus would bring them here. They could be flown from the lake in seaplanes.
 The disaster was the worst in the history of commercial flying in Alaska.

cedures. I don't maintain that you
can rely on the Soviet word. but we
must keep trying to get them to
agree-provided the Big Powers can
insure sufficient control over per-
formance once an agreement is
reached"
The former Premier said the
United States has not exploited all
the peaceful means that are open
to it in dealing with the Soviets.
One of the most important of these
that has been missed entirely is
"the threat of cancellation" he said.
"If Americans threatened to can

have not abided by its provisions,
as they have not, you might see
the Communists suddenly change
their tune" he said.
MIR. Macy asserted there isn't a
complaint from any country in
Europe that the Americans have
abrogated the civil liberties in their
occupation zones. Those abroga-
tions have occupied entirely in the
Soviet zones, he declared.
"It's the Soviets who have created
parties to suit their political pur-
poses, not the Americans. If Ameri-
cans insisted on canceling pacts and
agreements the Soviets have violated,
you would get stricter performance
on future agreements, he said.

Cannot Do Business
With StaIin,' Warns
Hungary Ex-Premier
By Steffon Andrews

Ferenc Macy, former Premier of
Hungary, warned the people of the
United States today to exercise
eternal vigilance in dealing with
Moscow because, he said. you can
not do business with Stain"
In an interview, the balding for
mer Balkan leader, who has been
living here for the last month, fol-
lowing his custer in a Communist
coup late in May, said it was suicidal
to leave any agreement open to
"unilateral interpretation by the
Soviet government.
81 am an object lesson of that"
he declared, grimly. Don't ever put
yourself in the position of relying
on the Soviet word. You couldn't
do business with Hitler, and you
cannot do business with Stain"
Likened to Hitler Tactics.
Mr.. Macy asserted that there was
an amazing similarity in the aggres-
sive expansionist tactics of Hitler
before the last war and those be-
ing used today by the Soviet lead
ers in Eastern Europe.
"The only difference" the former
Hungarian Premier said, "is that
the theology underlying the current
expansion is much stronger and
much more violent than that under
lying Hitler's.
Eat the time of Hitler's expansion,
you did not have organized NaZi
Parties in all the countries of Eu-
rope as there are organized Com
munist Parties now in every coun-
try of Europe and, in fact, in every
country of the world"
That IS why, today, the danger
from communism is much stronger,
Mr.. Macy said. The Soviets are able
to nullify the will of the majority
in almost every satellite country of
Eastern Europe because small
organized minority exercises undue
authority"
"Yet, there isn't a country in
Europe today where, If free elec-
tions were held as guaranteed by
the big powers. the Communist
Party would not be the party in
the actual minority" he asserted.
Asked what tactics nations should
use in dealing with the Communists
on the basis of his own personal
experience, Mr.. Macy replied:

Gray, who is in undetermined

said. Terrant was freed almost i'm

Other workmen managed to

the Welfare Department of the

They made known their convic-
tions by appearing at congressional
hearings dealing with public hous-
ing. 1t was here they seemed to
ally themselves for public housing"
and so against private housing"
Opposition to these agencies was

mitted by the Board of Public Wei
fare to prevent serious" future
problems.

assistance. They stated the appro-
priation from local funds for assist
ance grants for 1948 was 81 1874, 900.
Pointing out that the board has
been forced to drop over u per
cent OF its public assistance cases,
and to reduce the grants of an equal
number of cases during recent
weeks" the resolution asserted most
cases concerned persons still desti-
tute and dependent upon the COM
munity.'
1t declared the care of these per-
sons now devolved upon private
agencies unable to assume the bur-
den.
Approval by the city heads was
asked so "the present crisis may not
become increasingly worse and more
