It may be a call for a new coal
strike.
Last summer some Southern
operators withheld the payments.
The biggest Southern coal firm,
the Island Creek Co.. headed by
James D. Francis, has paid no
installments since the contract
expired last June 30.
The welfare fund was virtually
exhausted in September when Mr..
Lewis and the other trustees sus-
pended the benefits. Mr.. Lewis
blamed that on Mr.. Francis and
other Southern operators who had
refused to keep up their contribu-
tions. The recent 52-day strike
followed, and led to the present
three-day schedule.

According to this version, DR.
Adenauer told the correspondent
he strongly opposed any rearma-
ment of Germany and opposed
the use Of Germans as "mercen-
aries" in any foreign army.
The correspondent then said
DR.. Adenauer related, that high
foreign circles already had dis
cussed such plan.
DR.. Adenauer said his reply was
that If such a plan were forced
on Germany, then it still would
not mean creation of a German
army" but rather of German

Girl Scout Recovering
Fronf~ Ordeal Of Four
Niqhts in Wilderness
By the Associated Press

LONGVIEW, Wash. Dec. 16.-
A plucky girl scout who had
waited patiently in a wilderness
cabin four wintry night for her
rescue was resting today In a
warm hospital bed.
A physician said 16-year-old
Ruth Aberle of Kelso was respond
ing quickly to nourishment and
needed only few days Of rest
before rejoining her family for the
holidays.
Her safety has been almost a
Christmas present to this entire
Southwest Washington area. Ruth
said herself last night IT never
thought I'd be "a Christmas
present"
The search had been intensive.
Businessmen. loggers. stevedores,
boys and girls-even housewives
had joined the hunt. Some OF
them left their jobs to remain in
the woods. Townspeople at Kelso
lined the roads and cheered when
the ambulance drove out Of the
mountains toward the hospital
here.
500 Men Searched.
The girl had disappeared from
group of teen-agers cutting Christ
mas. trees Sunday. Since then,
while 500 men combed the noun
tain country northeast Of here,
Ruth had been alone and without
food in the snow and rain. But
when found yesterday she calmly
identified herself and said will
you take me home?"
Later she told her rescuer.
Charles F. Smith II knew I'd get
QUIT wasn't scared. But I hope
no one else ever gets lost
Mr.. Smith and his son, Phillip,
had started over a mountain to
1oin the main search party when
they saw the girl in a clearing.
She was returning from getting
a drink at a creek near the small
13 by IL foot square hut where
she had curled up to sleep four
previous nights.
AS soon as Ruth identified her
self, the younger Mr.. Smith fired
q gun three times. The shots
were heard by a group OF Kelso
boys who had moved beyond the
previous search area, around
mountain and - unknowingly -
along the general trial the girl
had wandered. They relayed the
signal back to the main camp
10 miles away.
Kept on Her Feet.
Meanwhile, young Smith took
of on the run toward the nearest
telephones miles-and notified
police. His mother called the
Cowlitz County sheriff's Office
here and an ambulance was sent
toward the road nearest the forest
scene.
The sturdy physical health Of
the girl kept her on her feet
until she reached the ambulance.
Mr.. Smith said the girl walked
"all the way to the road-several
mile-except when I carried her
across the streams"
Ruth had smiles for her res
euers and was still without tears
until her mother, Mrs. William
Aberle, sr., took her in her arms
at the hospital. "I'm all right.
mother. I'm all right; I'm happy
now"
The father came out Of the
mountains, where he had been in
the vanguard of the search, and

hospital room. He later quoted

Mr.. Aberle said the girl told of
straying from her friends and a
brother Sunday and then trying
to locate the brother. She said
she circled a large fallen log and
crossed a small stream. She then
became confused, returned to the
road-where the search camp
was later established-but turned
in the wrong direction.
II realized I was lost about an
hour after I became separated
from the rest of the Ids" Ruth
said. II got on a long road and
walked for a while. Finally I
found the cabin. 1t was fairly
dry. I found an old door that
was of its hinges in one corner.

didn't get too cold"
DR.. c. H. Du Vail said last night
the girl had suffered extreme
fatigue and extreme nervousness,
but is in surprisingly good shape" :"
After four days without food. she
had been unable to swallow sand
wiches offered by Smith when he
found her. but later took nourish-
ment at the hospital.
The physician said he would
permit Ruth to tell her story
again today to the press report
ers, If her strength held up.
