The Navy Department said the
air and sea search for survivors
was called off at sundown yester-
day.
There were no casualties report
cd on the Wasp. Sixty-one seamen
on the 1,6o0-ton Hobson were
listed as rescued.
Both the Wasp and the Hobson
had distinguished records in World
War II. They were enroute to the
Mediterranean as part of United
States task force.
The collision took place 1,2D0
miles due east OF Boston and TOO
miles west of the Azores. The
Navy said the seas were choppy
and the weather murky. 1t des-
cribed the conditions as near
stormy.
The snlpS were raKing part in
night maneuvers, a normal rou-
tine. The collision took place
shortly before midnight Saturday.
which was around 8:25 pm, east
ern standard time. The first Of
ficial word of the crash came
shortly before noon, EST, on Sun
day.
A Navy Department spokesman
said the search was called off be-
cause planes and ships in the area
of the sinking had ample time to
search the waters"
But the department studiously
declined to list the victims as
presumed dead"-only as "tenta-
lively missing"
All the Hobson's records went
down with the ship and there was
no accurate way of knowing the
exact complement Of the ship. The
department said it believed there
were IA officers and 223 men
aboard.
The crash ripped a 75-foot hole
in the starboard side of the Wasp.
The cash was just above the
waterline, near the bow. The Wasp
was making its way to New York
for repairs. 1t was not expected to
reach New York before Friday or
Saturday
Navy Department aides stayed
on the job around the clock work
ing on the grim assignment of
compiling the list of those report
ed as missing.
Names were made public as
soon as the next of kin was noti-
fled. An aide emphasized there
might be some errors in its lists.
The mid-ocean crash was prob
ably the most disastrous naval
collision since the end of World
War H.

Truce Talks In
Complete Recess
First In Months

MUNSAN, KOREA, APRIL %
tAP)-Korean truce talks were i'm
complete recess today for the first
time in five months. The United
Nations command waited for Com
munist reaction to secret Allied
proposal for an armistice.
1t is up to the Communists to
set the date of the next meeting.
Presumably the Reds will make
no move until decision has been
reached in, Peiping and Pyong-
yang, and possibly in Moscow. on
what to do about the plan the
Allies delivered Monday.
The proposal was described Of
ficially only as IAN overall solu-
ton for the remaining unresolved
issues standing in the way Of
military armistice."
That means it wrapped up in
one package the dispute over how
to exchange prisoners of war, the
Red demand for the right to re-
build their war-recked military
airfields, and Communist nomina-
ton of Russia as a truce super
visor.
There was widespread belief
that the proposal centered on pris-
oner exchange.
The Chicago Sun-Times, in a
copyright dispatch from Washing
ton, said Tuesday the Allies Of
fered to approve rebuilding Of air.
fields in north Korea during a
truce if the Communists will be
satisfied with the return of three
out of five prisoners of war.
The dispatch, written by Fred
erick Kuh, said:
Allied experts in Washington
think there is better than a $3.50
chance that after further tough
bargaining an armistice will be
agreed TO on lines close to the new
u. N. Offer"
There was no official comment
from u. N. truce negotiators.
The Communists have insisted
that all prisoners be returned. The
Allies have said they would return
only those who wanted to go back.
The u. N. holds total of 10000
prisoners of war and civilian in
ternees.
The offer clearly shaped up as
an all-out and possibly last-ditch
effort to get a truce after almost
ten months of negotiations. Brig.
Gen. William p. Nuckols, official
spokesman for the u. N. command,
repeatedly referred to the offer
and the secrecy as an effort to
hurry up agreement on a truce.
Nuckols said:
There is only one objective be-
hind the u. N. command proposal
of executive (secret) sessions and
that is speeding an armistice.
There is no other objective or ul-
terror motive

ENQUIRER comes this little

Seems school teacher con-
fDonted a class of little girls

happened, girls. When I walk

noticed a little puddle on the
floor
Now we little girls don't
do things like that, so we'll
all close our eyes for three
minutes and the little girl who
made the puddle is going to
the cloakroom and clean it
up"
At the end OF three minutes,
they opened their eyes and the
teacher went to the cloakroom
to find that not only had the
puddle not been removed, but
that next to it was another
little puddle, with a very
crudely lettered sign beside 1t
saying: THE GREEN PHAN-

From a homesick soldier at
Camp Hanford, Washington,
comes this modernlzed version
of an old Army lament. Joe
Stain can't get much out Of
this because every soldier that
ever lived has had his try at
gripping in some form or other.
Here 'tis:
Just below the Canadian
border. Camp Hanford is
the spot,
Where we are to serve
our time in the Land that
God Forgot.
Down with the smoke and
lizards, down where the
men are blue,
Right in the middle of
nowhere and 1900 miles
from you.
We swat, we freeze, we
shivcr, It's more than
man can stand,
We are not considered
convicts, just defenders Of
our land.
We are soldiers of Anti
aircraft, earning our
measly pay.
Guarding people wit h
millions for two-and-a-
half-a-day.
Living with our memoir
les, waiting to see our
gals,
Hoping while we are watt
ing that they haven't
married our pals.
Few people know we are
living, few people give
dam,
Although we've been for
gotten, VIC belong to
Uncle Sam.
The time we spend in the
Army, the good times we
have missed,
We hope the draft don't
get you but for Gods
sake don't enlist.
When the time comes and
we go to Heaven st. Peter
will surely yell,
They are from Camp
Hanford, Lord. They've
served their time in hell"
