Ex-Resideni
Is Missing In
Plane Crash
No Trace Is Found
Of John Anderson
At Sit Of Wreck

Word was received here at
8 pm. Thursday that the body
of John Anderson was found
one and a half miles from the
wrecked plane. His leg was
broken. He had been dead
three days.
Search for John S. Ander-
son, craftsman at Ingalls,
Shipyard for five years, who
disappeared a week ago on a
plane flight between Hous-
ton, Tex, and Bristol, Tenn,
was intensified Thursday af-
ter his plane was discovered
wrecked in the mountains
near Crossville, Tenn. No
trace had been found of And
erson late Thursday.
Close Friends Here
Close contact with searchers
was being maintained by friends
in Pascagoula, including Mr.. and
Mrs. Harold ]. Millikan and Ma
rion Parkinson who had been
closely associated with the miss
ing man during his residence
here.
Anderson left Houston last
Thursday in a plane belonging to
the Owen Tool Company, for
which he works, to spend Christ
mas at his mothers home.
There had been no definite ar
engagements as TO when he would
arrive at home so there was no
knowledge of his disappearance
until his employer called to speak
to him Saturday.
The last report of him was at
Columbus, Miss, where he had
refueled Thursday at 100 p. m.
The Civil Air Patrol rescue
service from Maxwell field, Mont
gomery, joined state highway pa
trolmen and private pilots in a
search for the plane after reports
were received of a crash in the
Black Mountains near Crossville.
Plane On Mountain
The plane was sighted at 3 p.
m. Wednesday on Devils Step
Mountain, II miles from Cross
vile, and ground parties reached
it an hour and a half later.
According to information re-
ceived by Mr.. and Mrs. Millikan,
there was no sign of blood nor
indication that Anderson had
been injured.
The plane was badly damaged
but there was no trace of fire.
Anderson customarily flew with
out a parachute. his friends said.
National Guardsmen and vol
unteer searchers formed a search
party Thursday to comb the rough
mountainous area.
Anderson left Pascagoula last
June after five years with ingalls,.
During his residence here he had
been connected with the Civil
Air Patrol and was an ardent
airman.

Once Again Notes
Story Of Az

The New York Times book re-
view section last week again has
discussed Americans, The Story of
the 442nd Combat Team" by Or
vile G. Shirley. published by the
Infantry Journal Press, Washing
ton.
OF the book, The Times said:
"CThis) is the record of a Nisei
unit, and most of this slim volume
deals with the operations of a Jap
anese-American outfit that fought
in Italy and Southern France. 1t
takes the author only a dozen pages
TO carry the team from activation to
battle in the Rome-Arno campaign
He admirably credits individual
achievement, building the story
around the sketchy reports that
come out of the din and confusion
of infantry combat. Some unit re-
cords were lost and others DESTROYED
by explosion and fire, but what the
book might lack in the way of leng-
thy tactical description it more than
makes up with an abundance of
episodes of action against the Ger
man Army"

GROSSLY INACCURATE

Many hoary joke comes in over
the air and many IN hntruth or misstate-
nnent, chiefly due to i lack of facts, reach
es listeners ears through the same medi-
um.
Many misstatements have been made
about Key West over the radio, but The
Citizen can not recall any other that was so
much off beam as that of I'VE, the People,
in it's program Tuesday night. when it told
the people about the raising of funds to
send Antonia Mujica to Johns Hopkins
Hospital in Baltimore. The radio annuon-
GERS gave all the credit to National Air
lines for financing the Antonia Mujica OPP
Grafton, assuming that the operation IS
performed.
The idea to have the ''blue baby" hos
Epitalized was conceived and initiated by
the Arthur, Sawyer Post of the American
Legion. With view to obtaining $1,000 to
pay for the disqualification, the post asked
Earl r. Adams to write series of articles
about the Mujica case. All of the articles
were published IN The Citizen. AS soon as
the first article reached the public of Key
West, residents began to contribute to the
fu.d. Day after day. Adams wrote an arti-
ele for The Citizen and the cumulative ef-
feet resulted in j the receipt of contribu-
tions that totaleti 81, 700, which was $7O0
more than the amount set by the post.
!. National Airiines had nothing what
ever to do with the case until the day that
Antonio Mujiea was to- leave here for
Washington and from there so to Johns
Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. Employees
of the company took UP a collection among
themselves and Antonia Mujica and her
mother were taken: to Washington free of
charge. The National Airlines, had it not
been for the Arthur Sawyer Post and the
articles that were published in The
Citizen, would not have known that such
a person as Antonia Muiica existed.
And now comes 1--WE. the People to
give the people information that is grossly
inaccurate.

IMPROVED rEcHNIouEs

Sometime in the latter part of 194s,
the State of Connecticut expects to omen
the first publicly-supported hospital in the
United States, designed especially for the
treatment Of alcoholics. Already. the state
has some out-patient clinics designed to
assist the estimated $4,000 of the coun-
trys approximately 6,000, 900 alcoholics.
who live in that industrialized state.
We call attention to this matter be-
cause of gradually developing public re-
alization that the alcoholic deserves spe-
eiai attention and that many of those who
cannot control themselves toward alcohol
should be helped into becoming good citi-
zens This sentiment is being held all over
the nation.
The Ohio House of Representatives
recently voted in favor of a bill to create
nine-man commission to, study the
problem of chronic alcoholics. Other
states make alcoholic literature available
to schools and Libraries and some of them
have provided for appropriate, courses in
high schools and colleges ON. the subject
| of alcoholism.
| We are very much pleased with the
more enlightened attitude that is being de-
velaped toward the unfortunate victims of
alcoholism. So long as society looks upon
them as sinners" and ''sots," subject to
the condemnation and censnre of ether
people. the reclamation of alcoholics will
be difficult problem. To approach it in the
new light of modern scientific research
with view that, perhaps. after all. the al
colohlic is unfortunate rather than eulpa-
bic, will get better results for society and
those who need assistance.
