Six.Engined Plane with Y Aboard Missing on FIighi
 South from Alaska; Searth
 Underway;;5e0ety Prevail,

SEATTLE, Feb IA = LR An authoritative source whose identity cannot be divulged said today that a B-36 bomber has been forced cown in Queen Charlotte Sound with IT men aboard, 400 miles northwest of here.
 The informant said there is no doubt that the plane "ditched" in the icy waters off the British Co., lumbia coast after encountering severe icing conditions and fire in one engine while on a trip from Eielson Air Force Base, near Fair banks. Alaska.
 Officials at McChord Air Force Base have refused to discuss the matter and a veil of secrecy has been wrapped around the matter.
 Plane Ditched
 At Carswell Air Force Base, Fort Worth, Maj Gen. Roger N Ramey, Commander of the Eighth Air Force, said he had received a report that the plane had been ditched in Queen Charlotte Sound but has not been confirmed and to me it is just a rumor."
 We have all kinds of rumors from all sorts of sources on this missing B-36," said he. T have re- ceived nothing definite at ell as to the fate of the men or the plane"
 Mackay Radio first reported the giant six-engined plane in diff culty when it picked up message at 2:54 am. (PST). The plane, en- route to Carswell Air Base, radioed:
 One Engine Afire
 One engine on fire, contemplat- ing ditching in Queen Charlotte Sound between Queen Charlotte Island and Vancouver Island. Keep a careful lookout for flares or wreckage"
 At Fort Worth, Eighth Air Force headquarters said it received the same report at 4:30 am. (CST). The planes third distress message said
 Severe Icing
 At 17000 feet in severe icing. Instrument and engine trouble. Severe emergency. Going to let down through overcast to lose ice"
 The last message gave the planes position as roughly 400 miles north west of Seattle. Eighth Air Force headquarters reported the plane missing after contact with the plane was lost after the third message.
 Light Sighted
 A Seattle radio amateur reported he had listened to a radio report from the Royal Canadian Air Force that it had sighted an unidentified light in Queen Charlotte Sound and was sending planes to investigate.
 The state patrol office in Seattle said it had been informed a B-36 had taken off from McChord Field to assist in the search but icing conditions forced it to turn back. The Coast Guard at Port Angeles, about 300 miles southeast of the ap- proximate position of the disabled plane, dispatched seaplane with
The Daily Alaska empire., 1950-02-14

life rafts and other emergency res cue equipment.
 On Training Flight
 Col. Cecil Scott, Eighth Air Force Public Relations officer at Fort Worth, said the ship took off two days ago for training flight to Alaska. On the return from Alaska he said the plane intended to con- sume about 25 hours flying around the United States before landing at Fort Worth.
 Names of those aboard the plane were not immediately released.
 Search Planes Out
 Eighth Air Force headquarters at Fort Worth said the Fourth Air Sea Rescue Unit, Tacoma, Wash, has sent out several search planes.
 It also said:
 Col. Bernt Balchen has been or dered to send planes of the 10th Rescue Squadron, Ladd Air Force Base. Fairbanks, southward to par ticipate in the hunt and that the Royal Canadian Air Force has been requested to join the search.
 The Eighth Air Force said the dis tress calls of the missing plane were relayed by another B-36 which also was flying from Eielson Air Force Base. Alaska. to his home base at Fort Worth.
 This second plane was due to reach Carswell Fled in mid-after- noon. Gen. Ramey directed that the pilot and radio operator of the B-36 be brought to him immediately from the flight line to give a personal report on the messages received from the missing plane.
 Planes AIcrted
 A military air transport plane. bound for Seattle at about the time the distress signals were being re- ceived reported seeing light flicker and fade on Queen Charlotte Sound, Eighth Air Force headquarters stated.
 Strategic Air Command head quarters. Omaha, alerted three wings of the 18th Air Force to be ready to send planes on the search. They included: the 98th Wing at Spo- kane; the 93rd at Castle Air Base, Merced, Calf; and the 22nd at March Air Force Base, Calf.
 Searchers Fan Out
 Planes and ships sped to the area about 125 miles northwest of Port Hardy, on the northern tip of Vancouver Island.
 The search planes famed out over Queen Charlotte sound from bases at Kodiak and Ketchikan. Alaska; Whidbey Island and Mo- Chord Field, Wash. and from Royal Canadian Air Force Bases in British Columbia. Other air bases were alerted to have search planes ready. Coast Guard vessels were enroute from Port Angeles and Ketchikan.
 For several hours developments were hidden by military secrecy. Capt. William Pratt, Assistant Pub- lie Relations Officer at McChord

Merry Go Round The w ashingfon

 By DREW PEARSON

UASHINGTON-The basic diff ferences inside the Republican Party were not apparent in the new COP Magma Charta last week. But during a closed-door caucus of COP Senators, there developed significant clevage which will have to be reconciled before the party can win any resounding vic- tories.
 When the proposed policy state ment was first presented to the private meeting, Sen. Margaret Chase Smith of Maine complained that part of the statement had all ready been broadcast by Drew Pear son, so it was urged that the Sen- ators keep further details from leaking to Pearson" However, here is a brief summary of what happened.
 Although nearly every Senator had his own ideas on what the pol icy statement should say, it was Brewster of Maine and Taft of Ohio who engineered the final com- promise.
 If you agree with 80 percent of the statement, that is as much as anyone can expect" argued Brewster. We can't draft state ment that will suit everyone per- fectly."
 The Young Turks" however, de- murred. Their sharpest spokesman was Vermont's stocky George Aiken who objected to the slogan, Lib erty against Socialism" and urged instead, Liberty Against Totalit- arianism."
 "These are costly statements you are making" he warned.
 Aiken also condemned the weak and vacillating" stand on Civil Rights, and criticized the implied endorsement of high tariffs But his loudest protest was over the state ment on farm policy.
 Drew Pearson says the Re- puhlicans are coming around to the Grammar Plan," taunted Aiken, then proceeded to criticize the COPS equivocal stand on cooper atives and failure to endorse the Rural Identification Administra- tion Aikens support of REA was so vigorously backed up by Sen- ators Mccarthy of Wisconsin, Wat kins of Utah and Young of North Dakota that the COP policy draft CTS agreed to insert REA in the Magma Charta.

ish children at the onset Of the

pletely new idea for all Jewish
people to make one Of their most
joyous holidays a truly festive one.
BY giving the children small toys

firmly in the highly imaginative
minds Of the children. It. indeed.
gives the holiday greater meaning.
Apparently Mrs. Rosenfield Is
not alone in her desire to make
this holiday more joyous holiday.
This idea has been approved by
Jewish spiritual leaders in WASH

If we totaled the price at the end

Tests in the laboratory and by
wearers outside the lab proved. so

hosiery with this liquid product
reduces by more than 80 per
cent the danger of snags with
every gauge and denier of hosiery
tested.
This product is a clear, color

it does not contain anything
harmful to the skin, or infam-
mable solvents. You wash and
rinse your stockings as usual, then
use two bottle top caps of the
liquid mixed with "a cup of cold
water for the next rinse. This
amount is sufficient to protect
seven pairs of hose. After use, to
prevent evaporation and retain
maximum strength, save your
solution in a covered container
until ready to use again. Do not
treat more than seven pairs OF
stockings with this solution as
excess water from Stockings
weakens the strength of the solu-
ton. The use of too little liquid
in mixture reduces its protective
qualities. Too much has a tend
ency to stiffen hose. Should this
happen, just roll them gently be-

run fingers through them gently,
and stiffness will disappear.

How'd you get that way?"

with q little bend and sway"
The old advice Bend down,
sister" was not bad at all. The
old standby front bend is still a
fine exercise if you do it correctly.
Many women who use this exercise
lose much of its value because they
do not take time for the upward
stretch. This Is the most impor-
tant part. It is also essential to
stretch upward by lifting your rib
cage rather than by stretching
with your arms.
When I give this exercise in class
I ask my pupils to keep the arms
relaxed, with wrists limp and ell
bows partly bent, arms at the
slightly below-shoulder level. In
this way you can really concen-
trate on lifting the rib cage up
ward. You do not raise the arms
or shoulders, just the ribs. You
will feel a grand pull over the dia-
phragm and even over the alb
domen.
Sometimes bending exercises are
not allowed if there is any weak
ness in the heart. OF course, no
exercise should be taken under
such circumstances except with a
physicians direction. Breathing
out on the bend and in on the up
ward stretch places less strain on
your heart.
The front bend keeps the spine
supple, reduces fat over the dia-
phragm and stretches the back.
leg and hip muscles.
Here are two easy but effective
exercises for the waistline. Stand
with your feet separated. Lift
your arms overhead. Sway from
side to side, going as far to the
right, and then to the left, as
comfortable. Another: Start in
the same position. This time
make large circles with your torso.
Do not neglect any part of the

DOG FOR CHILD.


In answer to your question, ]
would suggest that a Boston ter
rier puppy would be indeed a
happily choice for her son for
Christmas. I think most owners
of these cute, intelligent pets will
agree with me that they. don't
care to ever own a dog of another
! breed for a house pet and where
children are concerned. They
are smart. lively. very affection
ate and last but not least, have
short hair and love to be clean.
I think Boston terriers are, in all
points, ideal for a playmate and
companion for children.
AS for the part of the question,
asking where Boston terriers are
sold, I am sure that there are
many breeders of Bostons in and
around the District.
I think it is important to buy
q puppy so that he can grow
with the child, unless of course.
an adult dog can be found that is
already accustomed to and likes
children. This would be true of
a dog of any breed.
