the others from the cabin.
Together the three of us stand
there, in silence, not daring to
believe that we might be near the

to send up our last Very light

Most Of those reaching the
surface walked out without
assistance.
Burton said the men in his
section of the mine began walk
ing and crawling to the surface
Thursday night. Today they met
rescue crews on the way down.
Getting out meant crawling
up a 30-degree slope for almost
a mile. The greatest hazards
were gas and the risk of losing
their air supply.
Friday, fire in part Of the
escape route drove even rescue
crews from the pit because of
danger of a second explosion
The danger existed until the
fire area was walled of.
At All Saints Hospital doctors
said the rescued men were in
surprisingly good condition.
Many walked about, talking
with happy relatives.
II couldn't begin to tell you

dead deep in the rock filled
shafts. More optimistic mine
officials and workers disputed his
estimate.
One rescue worker said he was
willing to bet that most of the
miners still underground we're
alive. But an official said several
hours later a rescued miner re-
ported leaving eight miners be-
hind dead.
Fourteen known dead have
been counted--l3 who were killed
by the gas and coal dust blast in
the mines upper levels and one
miner brought out with the first
survivors today and pronounced
dead on arrival at a hospital.
When announcement was made
that the first survivors had been
reached, anxious relatives keep
ing vigil at the pithead shouted
with joy. Automobiles. with horns
blaring, raced through this
mining town of 5000. Nearly
every family in the community
was involved in the disaster.
There was delay in bringing
some of the men to the surface.
Many were checked for injuries.
Hot soup was sent down to those
weakened by hunger as they
waited for rescue nearly a mile
underground.

compared to a 81 per cent in

Union Quick to Dispute
Federal employee unions were
quick to dispute Newsweek's sta
tistics. They realized that il the
figures were left unchallenged,
1T would be a damaging blow to
Government pay raise prospects
next year.
The various classified and pos
tai employe unions submitted
Commerce Department figures
showing that Federal employee
salaries have gone up So per cent
since 1916. instead of the 81 per
cent figure reported by Newsweek.
Furthermore, the employe
groups pointed out that between
1889 and 1916, private industry
salaries went up about so per
cent, while there was no increase
in Federal classified and postal
I.alaries. Therefore, the unions
declare, Federal workers lag con-
siderably behind private industry
employees in pay raises given dur
ing the past II years.
