10 OCCUPANTS ESCAPE FROM BLAZING PLANE Pilot Calmly Brings Flying Boat to Safe Landing, Despite Flames. Bu United Prr PARAMARIBO, DUTCH GUIANA, Dec. 19.—With flames whipping about the cabin which carried four fellow airmen and five passengers, Captain R. H. McGlohn brought a blazing commercial flying boat (o •a safe landing ofT shore here Wednesday and escaped with all other occupants while fire enveloped the craft. All ten occupants of the plane escaped without being touched by the flames. The fire burned off all the covering of the wings, but left the motor and hull intact. The plane was the new Havana of the New York-Rio-Buenos Aires line, southbound from New York. It appeared off shore here, flames shooting from the wing motor. Pilot McGlohn headed straight for shore and brought his plane to an easy landing on the water. The flames were licking at the covering of the wings as he taxied the new flying boat up on a mud-flat where the five passengers, four other members of the crew and McGlohn scrambled out of the cabin door to safety. Local authorities, who had sighted the plane as it approached the shore, hurried to the edge of the mud-flat as McGlohn glided to the surface. Their aid was not required. McGlohn’s passengers were officials of the air line, chief among whom was Vice-President J. H. Edwards and Mrs. Edwards. The other three passengers were Traffic Manager Cordan of Argentina, Traffic Manager Martinez of Uruguay and Assistant Traffic Manager Servin of Argentina. The four members of the crew besides McGlohn were R. W. Ritchie, mate; J. L. Blackman, radio operator; C. L. Clements, mechanic, and G. A. Thibodeau, second mechanic.

GRIEF STRICKEN MINING COLONY IS ‘CARRYING ON’ Takes Heart From Example Set by Youthful Pair Bereft in Blast. Bu T'nitrrt Pri ss M’ALESTER. Okla., Dec. 19. Smiling bravely through their tears, a 19-year-old girl of the miners’ colony and her 17-vear-old brother "carried on” today as an example for the saddened families of the sixty victims of the Old Town mine disaster. “I’ll have to stand it,” Leona Davis said when she learned her father's body was in one of the sacks that was lugged from the explosiontorn depths. "Mother has 100 much on her hands with seven of us to look out for. Now there’s only* Leon and me to make a living.” Leon will go back to the mine to

take up the pick and shovel he wielded as one of the rescue crew. Taking heart from Leon and Leon’s coura§p, the widows and fatherless children of the colony set about making the best of things, although grief was manifest everywhere in the crepe streamers that hung where holly wreaths had been. Christmas fund was accumulating. At the head of the list of donors was the name of Will Rogers, Oklahoma cowboy-humorist. The McAlester chapter of the Red Cross already had collected $4,000 and radio stations throughout the state carried appeals for aid. The last of the sixty bodies were recovered late Wednesday and as identifications were made at the town morgue, miners went to the homes to announce the sad news. The messages were received quietly. Widows, mothers and sisters already knew. Dogs and cats suffer from attacks of as many as 475 species of insect parasites.
