AIRLINER CRASH
Bodies Found in Wreckage|
High in Mountains. .
MORGANTOWN, W, Va, April 16° (U, P)), — Federal. and county authorities searched the wreckage of -a Pennsylvania Central airlines plane today for a clue to the cause of the crash which killed 17 passengers and three crew members. The 20 bodies, burned beyond recognition, .were recovered last night by a search party which trudged three miles up the side of Cheat mountains, eight miles northeast of here, to reach the smouldering wreckage. ~ Five servicemen were among the passengers of the Pittsburgh-to-Burmingham, Ala, plane which crashed between 4:50 and 5 p. m. Saturday, a few minutes after the pilot had radioed that all was well. Preliminary reports showed that Capt. Pilot Harold H. Jones, 32, Norfolk, Va., had apparently tried to pull the nose of tive big ship up as it. ploughed into the mountain 100 feet from the crest. The weather was described as normal. The “wreckage, first spotted by a search plane yesterday, was spread over a 400-yard area. None of the
passengers were from Indiana.

IT'S ONE DAY NEARER VICTORY
UNCLE SAM ADVANCES A Swell Idea in BOND ‘BUYING!
Customarily there would be three War Loans this year— but Uncle Sam
decided on
two — and the fwo
fo do the work of three! :
“soe wil a here MUST BE more E-X-T-R-A bonds in each loanl
"So —27 Million foresighted and farsighted and forthright citizens are getting an ADVANCE START.
They are RIGHT NOW boosting
= gr
their allotments for Apri, May and June — so they can buy MORE bonds — and S-P-R-E-A-D their buying
over more pay checks.
It all adds up to this: — when the SEVENTH WAR LOAN comes they will have a good part of the extra bonds paid for—by spreading the burden over longer periods they can carry a heavier load. INTERRUPTION . PLEASE—At this point— there comes to mind a little story quite old— and a bit hazy—It's about a little boy--who was carrying on his bended back a boy almost his own size (maybe the boy was injured)—a passcrby inquired, “Isn't he
very heavy for you?”’—*“No,” the boy answered, “he’s my brother and I love him!”
These are the three numbers to remember—2-3-T—meaning this year 2 War Loans are as big as 3. In order that the Tth War Loan will 'be underwritten as a sweeping, inspiring success . .. the time. to begin is right now —and sit on top of the world in Satisfactions and + in Securities!
