,Rescuers Brave Gas
In Effort 10 Build Duct
To 4 Trapped in Mine
Nv the As.oe;o,sd Pres.


GIRARDVILLE, Pa, May S.
Miners working In squads Of three
began q desperate race today to
build an air duct toward four men
trapped deep In a burning anthra-
cite mine.
There has been no sign or sound
from the men since the blaze was
discovered shortly before midnight
Tuesday. At that time they were
800 or more feet below the surface.
Nevertheless their friends and
families above ground clung to the
hope the men had sealed of a
chamber from the smoke and gas
and were out of the reach Of water
rising after a breakdown of the
pumping system.
The rescue workers. wearing gas
masks, were In dangerous" car

proof asbestos suits had failed be-
cause Of smoke and heat.
Wall Built to Divide Shaft.
Volunteers worked atop the
mine elevator being slowly low
cred into the shaft. Behind them
they built wooden wall-to-wall
barricade across the hole.
The operations plan was to di-
vide the shaft into two sections.
A huge fan was being rushed TO
the mine to blow fresh air down
one side. The other side would
carry to the surface smoke and
gases forced out by the good air.
While two of the men worked
as fast as possible with hammer
and saw, the third aimed a light
on the work scene and kept care
full watch of a device measuring
the percentage of gas In the at
mosphere.
Meanwhile, other workers strove
TO improve the mine-ventilating
system, installing pumps at air
ducts scattered through the near
by hills. Compressors pumped
air under pressure into the shaft
and ventilating fans were In oper-
alton In the effort to clear away
smoke and fumes.
Timothy A. Ryan, State mine
inspector. said tests of the fumes
at the pithead indicated a monox-
ide content as high as 10 per cent

The mines communications
system was cut of by the fire and
no sound has come from the
trapped men since then.
Mr.. Ryan said a possible indica-
tion the men were still alive came
yesterday from the operation Of
one of the air compressors.
The compressor-normally used
to send high pressure air through
pipe lines into the shaft for mine
machinery-were put to work in
the hope that the trapped men
might open o valve and obtain
enough air to sustain life.

An unusual reason for opposing
the proposed increase in tele-
phone rates came from member
of the Northeast Washington Cit
izens' Association at Is meeting
last night.
Samuel E. Cross said his op-
position to the increase involves a
mysterious woman named Trina"
and Mr.. Cross dog.
Recently, Mr.. Cross said. his
telephone number was changed.
Some confusion was inevitable. he
said. but the case Of Trina" began
to irritate him.
Many times during the day and
night, he said. he had to answer
calls for Irma and to repeat that
she couldn't be reached at that
number.
Then Mr.. Cross said, his dog
grabbed him one night as he
rushed out of bed to answer the
telephone downstairs. The call,
he said, was for Irma again. So,
he decided. he'd better add an
upstairs extension, even though
he hated the idea Of having Ito
pay more for 1t.

sentative of the Chesapeake e.
