INTENSE COLD IS BRAVED IN REUEFRACES Rockies Regions Applauds Pluck in Aiding Snow Victims. Em United Press CHICAGO, Feb, 23.—Rising temperatures over the mid-west and Rocky mountain areas afforded relief fro mthe cold wave which has lief from the cold wave which has week. There still Is danger, however, in the mountainous districts from snowslides, such as those which cut off several cities. Enthusiastic acclaim was accorded throughout the Rockies to Pilot Edmund T. Allen, Edward Kiviaho and E. H. Meyers, who risked their lives in taking relief to persons cut off by snow. Aviator Drops Supplies Allen was called upon to take relief to a party of thirty-nine men and women isolated in the Red desert of Wyoming and who were in danger of starving. Their supplies were running low and it was impossible to reach them by tractor or pack train. Allen left Salt Lake City carrying 1,600 pounds of food and blankets. The flight took him about 150 miles over mountains and uninhabited regions where a forced landing would have been highly dangerous. The temperature in the rarified atmosphere he flew in was many degrees below Ee.ro. But Allen said he felt more than compensated when he flew r over the little group, huddlecf 1 around fires, and saw them waving wildly as he dropped his supplies. Kiviaho braved the drifts between Rock Springs, Wyo., and the isolated party to carry more food to them afoot. He was not sure that the airplane had reached them, and he was unable to get through by pack train. He fought his way through mountainous snowdrifts and in the.face of 10 below weather. Engine Falls in River Kiviaho was found by a highway department crew which broke through and rescued the isolated party Friday. He had collapsed and would have died. Myers, master mechanic, started out in a Silverton Northern Railway train bo batter through snowdrifts which had cut off Silverton, Colo. His engine struck a drift and toppled into the Animas river. Myers nearly lost his life. He is recovering at his home in Silverton. Warmer temperatures may loosen snowdrifts in the mountains and bring new slides and further suffering. The cold wave apparently has passed.
