FEC Urged 10 Treble
TeIevision Channels

The Federal Communications
Commission yesterday heard a plea
for trebling the number of tele-
vision channels in the United States
to satisfy a growing demand.
Frank G. Kear, radio engineer
and consultant for the American
Broadcasting Co., testified at an
FEC hearing that the present IL
channels were insufficient.
Under questioning of Chairman
Wayne Coy, Mr.. Kear proposed that
channels be increased to 36.
The commission has been holding
hearings since June 20 on an FEC
proposal to reallocate television
channels and add more stations.
At hearing yesterday. Westing-
house Radio Stations. Inc, proposed
that it be given channel for the
first commercial stratovision sta
tion. The corporation, a subsidiary
of Westinghouse Electric Corp,
would operate a plane over Pitts
burgh in conjunction with ground
television station.
Westinghouse described the pro-
ject as part of Nationwide sys-
tenn which promises to bring tele-
vision to millions in rural areas.

Wallace Hits Truman S
Civil Rights Gesture
By the ks,ociofed Press

by me ASSoefofed FFeSS
NEW YORK, July 28.-Henry A.
Wallace says President Truman's s
executive orders aimed at eliminat-
ing discrimination in the armed
forces and calling for a fair en-
ployment practices system for Fed
eral employees are only gestures"
The anti-discrimination order is
IAN empty gesture" and the en-
ployment order another obvious
political gesture" the Progressive
Party presidential candidate said in
statement yesterday.
Mr.. Truman's nightmares over
the rapid growth of the Progressive
Party" Mr.. Wallace said, have
forced him to face the issue Of dis
elimination, but once again he has
made only an empty gesture. He
has written into executive order the
language of the South. He fails
utterly to attack the heart of the
matter-segregation.
Commenting on the Presidents
order concerning a fair employment
practices system. Mr.. Wallace said:
His belated effort to establish an
FEPC in Government service, issued
on the eve of his politically created
special session, is another obvious
political gesture-and Milquetoast
of one at that"
Mr.. Wallace said he was repeating
his challenge to Mr. Truman and
Gov. Dewey, the COP presidential
nominee, "to debate with me-and
to debate with me in the South be-
for nonsegregated audiences"
Mr.. Wallace said he had sent tele-
grams to all radio and television
networks and independent stations
demanding equal time to reply" to
President Truman's address. There
was no immediate comment from
network officials here.

Inspectors Seek Cause
Of Indiana Mine Blast
In Which 13 Died |
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

, PRINCETON, Ind, July 28.-
Grim inspectors probed the
depths of Kings coal mine to-
day seeking to learn the cause
of an explosion which killed 13
miners yesterday afternoon.
1t was the second serious explosion
In eight months at Kings. The pre-
vious blast, last November, caused no
deaths but was followed by extensive
fires which closed the mine for more
than two months.
The mine had been closed again
last week because Of water seepage.
1t had been inspected Sunday by
State mine inspectors and had been
reopened only yesterday.
Two men were injured critically
In yesterdays blast, and a rescue
worker also was in a hospital after
being overcome by gas. Condition of
the rescue worker, George Red)
Cornelius, was not serious. Two
other miners were given first aid for
slight injuries.
Members of One Loading Unit.
The dead and injured were men,
bers of single loading unit which
was on the lowest level of Indiana's
deepest shaft mine, 433 feet under
ground and 3 miles east of the
tipple
Coroner C. c. Cooper said all the
bodies were badly mutilated and
burned. All were brought out within
three hours after the explosion.
Workers from other parts of the
mine and from nearby shafts moved
quickly to the rescue. The United
States Bureau of Mines Office at
Vincennes sent rescue crew. Am
balances from Evansville were sent
to help Princeton ambulance crews
move the bodies.
The National Guard Armory here
was converted into a morgue to re-
ceive the bodies, which later were
taken to funeral homes here and in
neighboring towns.
176 in Mine at Time.
There were 176 men In the mine
at the time, but other crews were
not endangered. The blast caused
only small fire which was soon
put out. Kings employs 525 men
on three shifts.
A silent crowd of $50 persons
gathered around the tipple as res
cue workers brought out the bodies.
Another crowd gathered in front of
the Office of the Princeton news
papers where bulletins and casualty
lists were posted in the window.
The Red Cross set up a flrst-aid
station at the mine and served
sandwiches and coffee.
One of those killed, Pit Boss Raw
Williams, was one of two men cited
for bravery by Gov Ralph F. Gates
last November. Mr. Williams and
Everett Jordan fought the fire at
that time and helped other miners
escape.
Bodies Thrown All Around.
Another of the dead, William De
Courcey of Princeton, had come
back to work yesterday for the first
time after being hurt in a slate fall
in the mine three months ago.
Joseph N. Potts, IS, safety in
spector for the mine, said he was
working in the area, so feet from
the scene of the explosion, and was
knocked unconscious by the blast.
He was not injured seriously.
Two Oakland City men, Harry
Sharp and Lloyd Mason, said they
were in the shaft at the lower level
3 miles from the blast and felt the
conclusion. They said they got on a
car and rode To the scene.
Miners bodies were thrown all
around" MIR. Sharp said. Some of
them were being removed. 1t was a
horrible thing"
