1100,1 NEEDED, PRINCETON PLEA (Continued From Page 1) buried today. Funerals were set Saturday for Hazel McGariah, Robert Banner, Audrey Rankin of St. Louis, Viola Nuthman, Audrey Rankin, Marthea Brokaw, Riley Reeves McKint^is. Those for Sunday: Mrs. Frank Metzger and Ora Berry. 1 Employment for storm victims was assured when high officials of the Southern Railroad Company announced that steps probably would be taken immediately to restore the shops. Structural iron workers, who recently completed a lar gemlll plant here, are available for the construction work. All other labor will be local, railroad officials said. A. Ritter of Cincinnati, architect, was here with plans for the reconstruction. Plant lo Be Rebuilt F. F. Feltz, manager of the Heinz company, also said his company probably would rebuild at once. News that the city would not lose two of its largest Industries heartened the workers as they set to their tasks of repairing the sterm’s damage. Ex-service men and Legion men were taking the lead In relief work. National Legion leaders who were here Included John Noll, associate editor of the American Legion Weekly; Phillip Von Blon and Fred C. Painton of Indianapolis. Legion on Job Arthur Twine man, local Legion commander, and Joseph Vollmer and Marian Higgins did herolo work Wednesday night In rescue work. Less than half an hour after the storm struck they had establshed headquarters, where hot coffee and sandwiches were served to workers. Too, they were first on hand in exploring wreckage for injured and the dead. More than 300 soldiers were on guard here today. They include members of the Company A. 152nd Infantry, Company F of the 139th Field Artillery, headquarters detachment. and combat train, all of Evansville. Death of Mrs. Herbert Reed, 80, at the Methodist Hospital on Thursday night brought the known dead to twenty-one. Her husband was In a critical condition. No attempt has been made as yet to check up accurately the mlseing persons. Additional deaths were expected, with scores of the Injured In critical condition. Citizms Dazed Eighty blocks of what had been a prosperous section of Princeton today waa a Jumbled mass of timbers. Men, women and children, dazed by the tragedy that had overtaken them, delvel Into the ruins to rescue belongings. Scores were seen carrying family Bibles, phonograph records, pictures of those who had been killed, to homes of friends. What had been Princeton’s pride—the Southern Railroad shops—was a twisted mass of junk. Tracks were yanked up, and, like giant snakes, were wrapped about wrecked railroad cars, gondolas and locomotives. Seven buildings, housing valuable machinery, were destroyed. Loss here was unofficially estimated at more than 81,000,000. The Heinz canning factory was another mass of ruins. Hundreds Spared By a twist of fate hundreds of the workmen’s lives were saved there. It was pay day at the factory and the majority of the 400 employes had left for their homes before tho storm broke. Had It occurred earlier, hundreds would have been killed. As It was many of the workmen were killed In grocery stores and other business plaoes, where they were paying bills and buying sup plies for the week. ‘ Desolation was at hand everywhere, in strange contrast with the beautiful spring day. Arrange Funerals Surviving relatives were at undertakers’ parlors viewing the dead and making preparations for their funerals. More than 500 homeless citizens were being taken care of at homes of friends and at the lodge homes, thrown open as relief stations. Others were housed in tents, erected hy guardsmen. Long lines awaited outside the city limits for passes from the national guardsmen to enter the city and aid relatives. Bltuatlon here, however, was well in hand. There was no looting. Armed soldiers patrolled the ruins. Henry Miller, Washington, D. C., vice president; B. G. Fallts, St. Louis, Mo., general superintendent, and H. E. Tyrrell, St. Louis, engineer of maintenance and way, all of the Southren Railroad Company, arrived late Thursday night In special cars. Although no estimate of the loss at the shops has been made, it will be near $1,000,000, according to Fallls. Roundhouse, blacksmith shop* office paint shop, coach shed, oil shed and miscellaneous small buildings were almost entirely destroyed. New planing mill and extension to the boiler shop, practically new buildings, were in fair condition. About twenty-five carq on the siding were overturned. Broken timber*. Iron beams and parts of roofs were strewn over the yards. The boiler shop was the first to go, it was said. A large part of the machinery can be used. Local officials said they did not know whether the loss was covered by insurance. The company carries Its own fire insurance, it is understood. Tracks Cleared Workmen tolled Wednesday night and all day Thursday clearing tracks in order that trains might be operated. J. F. Sheridan, Princeton, superintendent of the St. Louis division, said most trains were running on time. Temporary offices were set up in cars and sheds. William Bunn, master mechanic, said it was a miracle hundreds of workmen were not killed. The storm came a few minutes after workmen left the shop. a A McFatridge, dispatchei* who

LAD ESCAPES RUINS WHILE MOTHER DIES Griffin Boy Tells How Parent Called to Him in Vain — Perished With Five Others. *

Bv Time* Snecial EVANSVILLE, Ind., March 20. Away from the heartbreaking sight of the place that was his home, but with the fnemory of it ever before him, George Frederick Kokomoor, 11, of Griffin, today told how he fought his way to safety when his mother’s restaurant burned after the tornado, Wednesday. George, at the home of an uncle, and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Heady, in Evansville, tried manfully to keep back the tears as he described the fire In which his mother, Mrs. Flora Kokomoor, and his sister, Mary Louise Kokomoor, died, with five other persons. George was one of three survivors. Mortally injured, Mrs. Kokomoor called, over and over, "Georgle, Georgie.” The boy heard her, but he could not see her, "I’m buried up to my waist in

was In his office at the time, was flat on his back suffering from cuts ajid bruises all over his body. Robert Bammer and Ora Berry, colored, were the only two employes killed. Ten received minor Injuries. James Padgett ,a gang foreman, said he ran Inside, Just before the tornado reached the yards and the brick wall began falling. "It happened like a flash. First there was a stinging hissing noise and then a shower of brick and glass began to fall," he said. staTeladF STORM NOW 104 (Continued From Page 1) relief activities. All agencies were cooperating under the direction of the Red Gross. Mayor Elmendorf announced that the city council, at a special meeting Thursday night, had appropriated SI,OOO for relief work. The mayor and police officials from here were in the devastated district to help. Homes Offered Women of Evansville opened their homes and men loosened their purse strings, to help their homeless and suffering neighbors from nearDy towns. Throughout the day Thursday, the Red Cross and newspapers received calls from women who offered to take into their homes children robbed of home and livelihood, and, in some Instances, of family, by the winds that leveled towns around Evansville, but left this city Intact. It was estimated seventy-five children could be cared for through these offers, for two or three weeks. The Red Cross and newspapers were receiving a response to an appeal for relief funds. Anxious About Kin The most recent check showed thirty-nine Injured persons In the

bricks/’ the mother told her son. Then again, "Georgle." Soon the voice ceased. Mary Louise murmured a few words, Indistinguishable. George could not reach her. The boy, miraculously escaping injury when the building collapsed and caught fire, saw a beam of light, and started toward it. As he crawled over the ruins, several lathes, bared by the winds, barred the way. Turning, George Injured his back slightly as he struck lathes on every side. However, he succeeded in breaking them down, and reached safety. His father, H. A. Kokomoor, was in Dale, Ind., Only the two remained of the little family. "I don’t want to see any more twisters," George said today. “I might not be so lucky next time." "But," he added, “I wasn't very lucky this time.” With that the tears came.

hospitals here. Most of them were still in a serious condition. As newspaper men filed through the hospitals they were appealed to on every side for word of relatives of those lying helplees. In many instances families were separated as the injured were removed, some members being taken to one town and some to another. T. Wade Stratton of Griffin, whose son, T. Wade Jr., 14, was killed, lay badly Injured In the temporary hospital In New Harmony. He asked constantly for his wife and daughter, Thelma, both of whom were In a serious condition In an Evansville hospital. His only thought eeemed to be of them and of the dead son, his great pride. With national guardsmen and Red Cross workers in charge at Princeton, the situation was well In hand. Troops patrolled the streets throughout the night to prevent looting and disorders. Medical supplies, foodstuffs and clothing poured In from adacent towns which escaped the tornado’s path. Homeless were sheltered in tents pitched by the national guardsmen or in public buildings and houses thrown open to the refugees. Only a heap of burned ruins marked the spot where Griffin, a prosperous country town of 400, had stood. Few of the inhabitants remained on the spot. Most of the survivors were frantically hunting through morgues and hospitals in Evansville for a trace of relatives who were lost in the excitement after the tornado. A repetition of the looting that was reported Wednesday night at Griffin was prevented last night by doubling the number of troops there. Sightseers In VYay In Isolated rural sections farmers and their families huddled around the ruins of their homes, trying to salvage some of their personal belongings or apparently too dazed to leave the spot. Thousands of sightseers who crowded to the stricken area furnished one of the biggest problems for authorities. Militiamen were finally compelled to drive the autos of sightseers out

of the towns permit passage of ambulances and supply trucks. While many families today were turning t othe task of preparing to bury their dead, others were repairing their homes. Men with hammers and > nails turned carpenter, patching walls and roofs damaged by the storm. LEGISLATURE MAY BE RECONVENED (Continued From Page 1) heard the news. "The air was filled with countless objects ranging from trees to automobiles. Although there was no time to organize relief crews, we did our best and were able to save many of the trapped victims. It was hard to pass a trapped person crying for aid. We Just took them as we came. It was difficult to make our way; roads and streets were blocked with debris, houses, trees. Somehow we were able to scramble from one point to another, though. "Picture the sight of eighteen babies, all under two years, lying in a row, dead," Cooper told. Working throughout Wednesday night Cooper decided Thursday afternoon to carry the word of need to Governor Jackson. Hours were Spent in clearing tho road for his automobile. He arrived In Indianapolis Thursday night and lm-. mediately called on Governor Jackson, but the Governor was out of the city. Troops to Be Held In anticipation of crowds of vis-_ itors and sujierious expected over the week-end, Adjt. Gen. William H. Kershner today requested of Jackson that State troops be held on duty In the storm area throughout Sunday. Kershner, through a long-distance oall from Princeton, told the Governor the troops were well-organized and were handling the situation satisfactorily. The adjutant general said h would return to Indianapolis today. From New York to California, the Nation extended Its sympathy. Governor Jackson’s office received a stream of telegrams. The California Legislature has adopted a concurrent resolution extending sympathy* to Indiana, 1111-’ nols, Missouri and Kentucky, according to a message to Jackson. Other telegrams were received from Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York, the city of Sacramento, Calif., and the Mexican Culture! Union of Kansas City, Mo.
