Transport Plane Crashes In Japan

TOYA, Japan, (F) A big air force transport crashed Friday night with 35 persons, including one of General MacArthur's key officials. Presumably it was down in this rain-swept mountain coun- try southwest of Tokyo.
 A wet fog settled thickly shrouding from searchers the fate of the 27 passengers and eight creWmen. A daylong air and ground hunt failed to spot the four -engined C-54 which was fly ing to Japan from the Philippines.
 Bad weather forced six search planes and two helicopters to earth Saturday afternoon. Ground searchers kept slogging over the designated search area of II miles square that ranges upward into the TanzaWa Mountains.
 Frank E. Pickelle, Chicago, head of MacArthur's foreign trade division, was one of the passen- gers. With three other occupation workers he was returning from a trade conference at Manila. They were James Torrens, Washington, Bernard Adams. New York, and Mrs. Teresa Krosser Chome town unavailable.

KOtzebue Wolf De. predatiOns Greatly Exaggerated
Anchorage TimeS)

NilC lNOLLCDhC-4NOd IllN- CT areas have been greatly exag- gerated.
 That is the conclusion of a Fish and Wildlife Service predator con- trol agent from Anchorage who spent two weeks in those sectors makin ga first hand investigation.
 Maurice w. Kelly, the predator agent. said his survey showed nn need for a state of emergency.
 There are wolves in that coun- try, probably quite a few, but nothing like the reports" He add ed that the So-called "caribou slaughter near Noatak village was due, not to wolves but the hunt CTS"
 The FWS has affidavits show ing that 280 caribou in that area were killed by 37 hunters. Seven boys admitted killing 120, it is re- ported.
 During the two weeks that he was flying over the area, Kelly said he saw only two wolves. He covered the area up the coast tow ard Point Hope, flew over the Natak River drainage and up the Kobuk River as far as Shelby Lake. He also covered many of the tributaries.
 The FWS agent stated he had interviewed bush pilots in the area. One pilot reported he had radioed Kotzebue that he had seen a wolf pack of IT. When the story got out, the r wolves had bal looned to 40.
 Kelly also talked to Glen Hud- son of Talkeetna and his brother, Cliff. recognized wolf hunters. They went north, Kelly said, fully equipped to hunt wolves on the strength of the hue and cry.
 The Hudsons had been north as far as Barrow when Kelly saw them, had covered the Noatak flats, Point Lay and Point Hope area and they had not seen one wolf.
 They told Kelly that they had sighted what appeared to be eight l wolves on one flight. When they let down they found the evolves" were caribou.
 Kelly pointed out that other pi- lots might make the same mistake [ if hunters as experienced as the HudsonS could err.
 FWS agent Stanley Patrick took two more wolves at the reindeer herd at Selawik. Elmo Miller, ANS representative at Nome, reported l that there had been no losses to 1 the reindeer herd in that area this year from wolves. Some wolf tracks were found near Teller, but there were no victims. | The FWS will carry it's wolf campaign into the spring.

Caught in II Minutes
After Bank Robbery
By the Associated Press

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, July 20.
Two Men dressed as if for an
afternoon at the country club
staged a bold bank robbery today,
but quickly came to grief.
Eleven minutes later, under
leveled guns from five police cars,
they tumbled out of their station
wagon and were handcuffed.
Vice President w. r. Turner of
the bank said $10,461 was taken,

Entering the place at the peak
| of the Saturday banking rush, a
short while before closing time,
one Of them called out:
This is a stickup."
Both men wore masks, and each
brandished a pistol.
One stationed himself just in
side the door. The other, COM
mapding the 40 or SO patrons to
lie on the floor, stuffed all the
paper money in sight into a sack,
and joined the lookout at the door.
Then both jumped into the sta
ton wagon which had been parked
in front of the bank, and headed
toward Huntington.
Kenova police radioed an alarm
and five Huntington police cars
pointed toward the main highway
leading into the city from Kenova

Rice Diet Treatment
Found Helpful Against
High Blood Pressure

The so-called "rice diet" treat
ment for high blood pressure has
been of value to a group of pa
tients studied for two years by al
team of Columbia University med
ical scientists, it was announced
today.
Considerable controversy has
centered around the rice diet
treatment since it was reported
several years ago by DR.. Walter
Kempner of Duke University.
Treatment consists of meals of
rice and a little fruit-foods with
a low salt content. The lack Of
salt is believed to reduce blood
pressure.
THE findings of DR.. Kempner
were supported in great part by
the Columbia project" the uni
versity announced. The report Of
the university physicians is pub
lished in the current issue of the
American Journal of Medicine.
Good results were noted with
more than half of so patients with
essential apprehension, a form of
high blood pressure resulting from
unknown causes, the report states.
Average length of the diet was
1912 weeks.
1T would appear" the research
erS said, that the effects of the
rice diet exceed, under controlled
conditions at any rate, any other
types of treatment for this dis
ease short of sympathectomy
Cutting of certain nerves."
1t was emphasized. however.
that high blood pressure returned
in most of the patients after the
diet was stopped. The report said
the diet is extremely unpalatable,
monotonous and difficult to main
tain long enough to exert its ef-
fects." The group is now studying
ways to make the diet more in
viting.

was finally found after Is days
of dragging the Miami River for
her points up the danger of a
repetition of this stark tragedy,
unless greater care is exercised
over the play of youngsters.
According tothe sheriff's report
the young girl had accompanied
other children and two adults on
atrip to hunt dandelions on April
10. The youngster was running
and playing near a drainage pit
on River Road when she lost her
footing and fell in. She was swept
into the Miami River, and the
search for her body took place
day and night until it was dis
covered yesterday. The volunteers
should be thanked by the entire
community for their ~tireless eff
forts.
With the warmer weather i'm
pending there will be an increas-
ing migration of children to areas
where there exists such hazards
as claimed the life of the Hill girl.
Unless the proper supervision is
exercised over these youngsters
who are naturally inclined totake
chances, then more A a Louise
Hills will be the harvest of the
folly of carelessness.
Parents and adults are urged
to make every effort to prevent
children from wandering too close
