Firemen and trainm e n
pumped water from the river
to fight the blaze. But flames
continued to send sparks over
the countryside early today.
Large oak trees that had been
stripped Of foliage caught fire
from the flying embers and
dropped firebrands near rescu-
ers and onlookers.
Ambulance Driver Hurt
In the second blast an am
bulance driver, w. w. Wallace
Of Savannah. received burns on
one arm, but continued on
duty. He said four bodies were
lying on the ground apparently
burned beyond recognition. and
the area near the trestle could
not be approached because Of
the heat.
An l8-year-old girl was lying
nearby with all of her clothing
burned of, writhing in pain.
The scene Of the explosion Is
five miles or more OF of a
paved highway. and about two
miles from Meldrim. Rescuers
and hundreds Of cars travelled
over a bumpy, dusty one-lane
road which was little more than
a logging trail to reach the

snort OF WHAT II neeueo AZ the
present time"
''The report is much more
an effort to justify steps already
taken and recommendations al
ready made than 1t Is an ef-
fort to analyze our current sit
uation," Senator johnson said.
"All Of us want to fight in
fiation and to insure growth.
Being against imitation is very
much like being against sin.
But we don't contribute to
the fight against imitation
merely by issuing reports which
announce solemnly that a series
of partisan recommendations
have economic sanctity."
Serious Aspect not Covered
Senator johnson said the re.
port doesn't cover adequately
one Of the most serious aspects
Of inflation-"mounting costs Of
money"
Few things have contributed
as much TO imitation as rising
interest rates." he said.
The only thing the report
said specifically about this ques-
ton Is that the sky should be
the limit on interest rates"
Senate Minority Leader Dirk
sen made only one comment
on Senator Johnson's brief
speech.
Being against sin" Senator
Dirksen said, "is q moral pos
ture.
Being against infiation," he
added. Springs forth from q
strong appreciation there's 60
ing to be q jolt in the pocket
book, and that makes 1t a very
immediate problem and one the
people can understand"
B0wIes Is Critical
Representative Bowles. Demo-
crat Of Connecticut, called the
report "the same shop-Worn
economic cliches which have
led US into two recesSions In
five years"
He said the report reflects a
"deplorable lack Of faith in
the dynamics Of our private
enterprise system"
Mr.. Bowles called for rejec-
ton OF the administrator s
proposal to remove the inter =
est rate on Government bonds
and termed 1t Exhibit A in
reverse economic reasoning"
The cabinet committee said
the economy is at q critical
juncture" and said Congress
must take these actions
promptly:
/. Make 1t clear that the
Federal Government intends to
use all appropriate means to
protect the buying power Of
the dollar" and recognize "rea-
sonable price stability as an
explicit goal of Federal eco
nomic policy"
2. Balance the budget by re-
framing from going beyond the
expenditures provided in the
Presidents budget, both this
year and in years to come, and
reduce the national debt.
3. Remove the interest CELL
ing on Government bonds.
Otherwise the Treasury will
have to issue short term bonds
equivalent to money" There
is very little difference between
this and "iust cranking up the
printing presses and rolling out
greenbacks." the report said.
