 Leg of Vietim Found

CORDOVA, Alaska, Dec. 1.-IR- Jimmy La Gassa, Navy veteran, was blown to bits Saturday when he fired a rifle bullet into the powder house of the Mount Mckinley Mines at Alganik Station, p miles east of here.
 A companion, Johnny Kulper, IS, testified before a coroner's inquest that he and La Gassa had gone to Alganik in La Gassa's motorboat Saturday morning. Kulper said he remained on the boat to do some chores and La Gassa said he was going to take a shot at the powder shack to see what would happen" ,"
 Moments later a terrific blast shook the boat although it lay under protective bank more than 100 yards away. Kulper was shaken by the concussion but was not injured

Meat Price To Spiral
 In Spring
Harrim an Asks for Au- ihority 10 Set Price
 Ceiling

WASHINGTON, Dec l. - R- Secretary of Commerce Hartman said today that a shortage of meat in the spring, unless something IS done," may set off another spiral of imitation.
 He urg e d the House Banking Committee that the administration be given authority to impose limited direct controls of prices and wages and to institute consumer rationing on a few items.
 If this is not done, he declared, situation may develop necessitating a general freeze of prices and wages.
 In the midst of Harriman's testi- mony, Chairman Wolcott (R.-Mich9 protested that the administration is trying to sell Congress "a pig in the poke" by not disclosing details of legislation it wants and how the powers would be applied
 Hartman replied that he had ,een reluctant to impose his lan- guage upon Congress but if Con- gress wanted it he would submit de- tailed language for legislation.

 The pilot said the big DC-4 com ing in under leaden skies from An chorage, Alaska, landed at speed of approximately 100 miles an hour.
 When he tried to apply the brakes, Paris said they didn't hold. He failed in an effort to ground loop" the plane and it rolled like it was on a bed of ball-bearings" until it leaped a 60-foot embankment at the end of the airport runway.
 The transport crashed into an au- tomobile on the highway below killing a blind woman in the car Then the plane caught fire.
 The pilot told how he tried in vain to rescue the blind woman. but she craWled into the flames instead of away from them.
 When we hit and the right wing cracked, saw the flash of fire re- flected in my window" Farris re- lated "A tree was janmed up against the right window and Dick and I both got out the left window
 Dick is the co-pilot, Richard F. Whiting, 20, of Anchorage).
 Someone yelled There's wom- an in the car. The car was jammed right in front of the butt of the wing where it joins the fuselage.

Electric Power Shut Off as Employees Walk 0ut-
 Gas Service Crippled

PARIS, Dec 1-tR-Strikes halt ed the Paris subway today and leaders of the Communist-domi- mated General Confederation of Labor defied the governments an- ti-strike legislation. Leaders sum- moned all workers 'to action, as- serting they would refuse to nego- tiate further toward ending the nationwide walkouts if the legisla- ton was enacted in the National Assembly.
 Subways halted shortly after noon, when electric power was shut off ty strikers. Gas pressure was reported at danger levels" in the capital and service was reported stopped at Nice, Marseille and Can nes.
 The Assembly, which last night approved a call of 80,0Oc men to the colors to combat the creeping paralysis induced by the strikes, be- came such well of tumult that it suspended for two hours it's consideration of the strike law Neither the chairman nor the speakers could be heard.
 With thousands stranded by the subway shutdown, Paris was plag- ued by a strike at all six gas com panies serving the suburbs. The concern furnishing gas to Paris proper continued service, although the pressure was reported only half normal.
 Police and motorized armed forces opened roads in northern France to struck coal mines, but few miners appeared to be returning to work. Fights erupted at Lievin when 700 miners tried, apparently without success, to return to work.
